intuited in any degreo to product) a state of
feeling so much to be desired, I liavo rea
son to be gratified with the result.
Tho approaching, and if the policy of the
present Executive is allowed to prevail, the
certain and speedy extinguishment of tho na-
■ionuldebt, has presented an opportunity l»r a
inure equitable adjustment of the tnrifE which
h is been already embraced by the adoption of :s
conciliatory measure, the spirit of which will, I
doubt not, continue to ho cherished by all who
are not desirous of advancing their private ill-
leresta at the sacrifice of those of tho public,
and who place n just value upon the pence
am) harmony of the Union.
The Protective System and its proper ad
justment, beenme a subject of frequent iittil
necessary consideration, whilst i formed a
part of the cabinet; and tho manner in whieh
the President proposed to carry into elTeci the
policy in relation to imposts, recommended in

tv upon imports, with a view to equal justice
in relation to nil our national interests, and to
the counteraction of foreign policy, so far us it
may bo injurious to those interests.”
In these sentiments I folly concur; nnd I
have been thus explicit in tho statement of
them, that there may ho no room for misnp
prehension ns to my own views upon the sub
ject. A sincere and faithful application of
these principles to our legislation, unwnrpcd
by pnvnlo interest or political dosign ; n re
striction of tho wants of the government to a
simplo and economical administration of its
affairs—-iho only administration which is con-
sistent with the purity and stability of the ru-
publicnn system ; a preference in encourage
ment given, to such manufactures ns are es
sential to the national defence, nnd its exten
sion to others in proportion as they are adapt
ed to our country, nnd of which tho raw ma
terial is produced by ourselves; with a proper
respect for tho rule which demnnds that nil
taxes should ho imposed in proportion to the
ability nnd condition of tho contributors;—
would, 1 am convinced, give ultimata satis
faction to a vast majority of tho pooplo of the
United Slates, nnd arrest that spirit of discon
tent which is now unhappily so prevalent, nnd
which threatens such extensive injury to the
institutions of our country.
internal improvements arc so diversified in
their nature, and the pnssiblo agency of the fe
deral government in their construction, so va
riable in its character and degree, ns to re.ridcr
it not a little difficult to lay down any precise,
rule that will rmbraco the wholo siihjcet. The
broadest and best defined division, is that
which distinguishes botween the direct con
struction of works of internal improvement by
tho general government, and pecuniary ussis.
lance given by it to such as ore undertaken by
others. In tho former, nro included the right
to make and establish reads nnd canals within
tho Slates, and tho assumption of ns much ju
risdiction over the territory they may occupy,
as is necessary to their preservation and uso :
the latter is restricted to simple grants of mo
ney, in md of such works, when made under
State authority.
Tho foderul government does nor, in my
opinion, possess the power first specified ;
nor ran it di rive it from the assent »f the Stale
in which such works are to ho constructed.
The money power, ns it is cnlled, is not so
freo from difficulty. Various rules have from
time to lime been suggested by those who pro
perly npp'cciute the importance of precision
end cariniuty in the operations of the federal
power; but they have been so frequently in
(ringed upon by the apparently imiiviiidnhlo no
lion of tho government, that a linnl and s rtis-
factory settlement of the question Inis been
praventod. Tho wide difference between a
definition of the power in question upon paper,
nnd its practical application to the operations
of government, has been sensibly felt by nil
who linvn been entrusted with the management
of public afiairs. The whole subject w as re
viewed Hi the President's Mnj sviile message.
Sincerely believing that the host interests of
the whole country, the quiet, not to sav the
stability, of tho Union, und the preservation
of that moral force wltieh perhaps ns much as
any other holds it together, imperiously re
quired that tho destructive morse of legisla
tion upon that subject, then prevalent, should,
in some proper und constitutional way, he ar
rested, I throughout gave to the measure of
which that dot umnnt was an exposition, my
active, zealous nnd anxious support.
The opinions declared by the President in
the Mavsville, nnd his succeeding animal mes
sage, ns I understand them, ara as follows:
1st. That Congress does not possess the
power to niako nnd estuhlisli a road or canal
within a Stale, with a right of jurisdiction to
the extent I have stated ; and that if it is tho
wish of the people that tho construction of
such works should be undertaken by the feder
al government, a previous amendment of the
constitution, conferring that power, and defi
ning nnd restricting its exercise, with refer
ence to tho sovereignty of the States, is in
dispensable. 2d. An intimation of his belief
that the right to make apprnpiaiions in aid of
■uch internal improvements us nru of a na
tional character, has been so genortlly noted
upon and so long acquiesced in by tlm federal
and State Governments, and the constitu
ents ofesch, ts to justify its exereiso; but, thill
it is nevertheless highly expedient that even
•uch appropriation should, with tho rxeeptii n

buoys, public piers end other improvements ;

United Slates, for the security and furility of
our foreign commerce, he deferred at least un
til the national debt is paid 3d. That if ji

the federal government should be restricted to

In these views i concurred ; nnd 1 likewise

Yours verv respectfully,
' EDWARD CARY.
and I do not hesitate to express it as my opin
ion, that the general ami true interests of the
country would holiest con-.lied by withholding
them,with the exceptions which I have already
referred to, until some constitutional regula
tion upon tho .subject has been inode.
In this avowal, I am certainly not influen
ced by feelings of ind-fl'-renee, much Ins.i of
hostility, In internal improvements. As such,
they can have no enemies. I have never
omitted to give thorn all the proper aid in mv
power; fur which, by the wav, I claim no
particular merit, ns I do not believe there i-
nil honest and snnu man in the country who
does not wish to see them prosper : lint llinir
construction, mid the manner in whieh and the
means by which they arc to ho effected, are
quilo different question*. Rather than again
expose our legislation to all the corrupting
influences oflhoso scrambles and combinations
in Congress, which huvo been hrrcloforo wit
nessed, and the other alfa,:s of the country to
the injurious effects unavoidably resulting from
them, it would, in my opinion,be infinitely pre
ferable to leave works of the diameter spoken
of, nnd not embraced in tho exception which
has been pointed mil, for tho present, to the
supports upon which limy have reposed with
so much success for lim last two years, viz:
slalo efforts and private enterprise. If tho
great body of tho people become convinced
tlmt tho progress of those works should lie
uecelerntod by llie federal arm, they will not
refuso to coino to some proper constitutional
iirrnngomciit upon the subject. The suppo-
sitiun tlmt an equitable rule, which pays a pro
per respect to tlm interests and condition of
tho different States, could fail to receive, ul
timately, the constitutional sanction, would bo
doing injustice to tlm intelligence of the coun
try. Ilysucha settlement of tho question,
our political system, in addition to tlm oilier
advantages derived from ii, would, in relation
to this subject at least, be relieved from tlmso
dangerous shocks which spring from diversi
fies of opinion upon consiiluiional points of
deep interns!; and in file mean time, tlm re
sources of tlm country would ho best husband
ed by being left ill tlm hands of those by whoso
labor tlmy nro produced.
I am unreservedly opposed to n renewal of
tlm charter of the United Status’ Rank, nnd
approve of tlm refusal of tho President to
sign tlm hill passed for Hint purpose, at the
Inst session of Congress, as well on account
ol'ilie iineoiistitutiouality, ns the impolicy of
its provisions.
I am equally opposed to tho principlo of
Nullification, ns it is called. With whatever
sincerity that doctrine may Im entertained by
others, I behove that it is cnliroly destitute of
constitutional authority, nnd lliat it could not
bo adopted, without drawing after it tlm nlti-
malo but ccriaiir destruction of tho confeder
acy.
That these vinws will he universally ne.
eepiablo to those who have called them forth,
I do not allow myself to expect. Ho who
thinks in a country, tho interests of whieh nro
so diversified as ours, and in respect to tlm
constitution of which, construction is made to
perform so great u part, that the purest inten
tions, or tho most profound n flections, enu
enable him so to shupe his political tenets as
to moot tho approbation of nil ; or wlm is so
unreasonable as to require tlmt tlmso of the
public servants should, in nil respects, corres
pond with his own, must expert to umko up
his account with disappointment or deception.
For myself, I cherish no such hope.—All I
ask, is a fair confiduucu in tlm sincerity of the
principles I huvo uvnwcd, mid in tho fidelity
with which they will ho maintained. It is not
possi.ilo tlmt uny nomination could Imvo been
more entirely unsolicited, by word or Heed,
than that which has been bestowed, upon mo.
Had it not been for an event to which, us I
htive before said, I leel myself principally in-
dehted for it, I should not havo hesitated to
decline, however highly dislingiiistivd the hon
or intended for mo is felt |» be. And I hog

Dear Sir,—Your letter of the 21st inst. is
before me, and I make uso of the earliest op
portunity of replying lo it.
You say Hint my letter to the committee at
Augusta has been made use of lo the injury of
Hie party with whom I have uniformly acted.
'Pis, to me, is a inntter of regret and sur
prise ; nnd I feel iigsurotl that misconception
of my meaning alone could authorise such a
result from it. In support of this, let mo arl
vprl lo my political belief, nnd in doing so
romply with your request us to my vinws on
nullification, wit it 1 shall say shall ho in as
few words as possible
and independent, except so far ns she has par
ted with her sovereignty in adopting the Fed
eral Constitution. She is not bound by any act
contrary to tho Constitution ; nnd in ease of
an infraction of that instrument, sho has the
right to judge, of it for herself, anil to determine
upon the mode nnd monsurc of her redress.—
No nlicdicnro can ho rightfully claimed from
her lo an unconstitutional act. If she yields
obedience to such an act, it is a matter of her
option, from motives of which she alone is the
judge of herself; nnd that obedience sho can
determine at her pleasure.
In n Collision between a Stalo nnd the Gen-
oral Government upon Consliiutionnl points,
the Stale rriny, upon her responsibility ns to
consequences, interpose Imr sovereignly, and
arrest the execution of nil nnciinsfihitional law
within her limits ; hut in doing so she assumes
nn altitude that may place her without the Un
ion ; though not uccossnvily so, us nno of the
parties may yield, nnd in that event, tho Union
will he preserved. In all cases where a qties
lion arises ns to the interposition of tho sover
eignty of ihe .Stale for I lie purpose of stopping
the execution of an iinconslitulioniil law of the
General Government, duty to herself requires
that she should take into careful und enlighten
ed consideration nil the circumstances con-
ncrled with it, so that she may judge of, and
dotermino upon Ihe mode most likely to rem
edy the evil with tho least possible injury to
herself. I cannot eoneeivc that any thing hut
disunion can grow out of a conflict between n
Slate and the General Guvcriiincnt, in which
neither parly «ill recede. In proportion there
fore to the difficulties to he overcome, so
ought to ho tho rare und consideration with
whirl) remedies should lie applied, so long ns
ultimate union nnd linrmony is the object. I
would not ndviso a course so feeble as to ho un
availing ; nor would I, by precipitate notion,
unnecessarily hazard important nnd fatal con
sequences, Hint by n lillo mnro prudence
might lie averted.
I ilu not, therefore, consider that tho inter
position of tho sovereign power of the Slnto lo
slop an unconstitutional law, or in other words
! Nullification, under present circumstances,
nnd ni tho present lime, either n eorlain, safe
or preferable expedient for remedying the evils
of the larilf—ISccanse, I ennnot conceive, from
tho vast amount of individual pecuniary inter,
cst involved, nnd various oilier aspects in
which it may be viewed, that such a remedy
would necessarily he peaceable nnd efficient.
I ain fear fit I that this question cannot lie set
tled in that summary way which others, with ns
much principle involved, might; and tlmt un
less the lenient effects of time assist in tho
work, entire disunion might result from Ihe
measure. If, however, no other alternative
should remain hut submission to a govern
ment with unlimited powers or separation, I
should unhesitatingly prefer tho latter. Be
fore separation, however, I would try all reu
suitably expedient lo preserve the Union upon
luir and equitable principles, because in any
event separation will always bo in our power,
but once disunited, union upon fair terms
might not he.
It is contended (lint nullification would be a
peaceable mid efficient remedy for the Tariff.
If I could think so, I would at once advise it;
lint when I reflect tlmt its exercise by a State
would probably divert almost the entire com
merce of the Union to one point, giving lo
that point the control of almost all the rev-
CScucviil SutclUarncr.
News from the west.—We understand that
letters have been received from Gen. Scott,
who had reached Cincinnati on the Gth instant,
on his return to N. York. He expected lo he
at West Point bv tho 16th or 17tb. On the
21st ult. he signed nn important Treaty with
the body of the Sacs and Fox Indians—nnd
on ihe 23d and 2-ltli, put all ilie troops in mo
tion for their former respective stations. The
Artillery, principally from old Point Comfort,
hnd not had a case of Cholera later tiiun tho
12lh of August. This body of troops came
down the Mississippi, will ascend the Ohio ns
Each Stale of the confederacy is sovereign *fnr ns Guyanooite, nnd thence march through
Staunton and Richmond. The Infantry which
look tho Cholera at Rock Island (not from the
troops that came by the way of Chicago,) had
no case of tho disease after tho 2d of Septem
ber.
We understand, that by the treaty with the
Sacs nnd Foxes, Black Kawk, tho Prophet,
and 11 other principal chiefs and landers of
ihe same, or hostile Band are to bo held ns
Hostages fur the future good conduct of their
Bund, during the pleasure of (lie President of
the Uiii'ed States. Wo have gained a line
country 300 miles on tlm Mississippi, and of
woods abound with not only the finest fruits 0 f
almost every kind, but with grapes indigenous
of that country equal to the Assyrian.
Add to this, tho ever green meadows cover
ed with wild horses, asses, mules, buffalo and
game of every description, and some few of
ihe advantages of Texas muy bo realised.
But its greatest advantage over our South-
ern States, 13 its superior health, in which lat
ter respect, it may perhaps vie with any coun
try on earth in the same latitude; being hap.
pily relieved from those interminable swamps
that have generated so much disease on the
Mississippi, Red riverand many other streams
in the South.
Wlint then are the arguments used against
Ihe countless value of this country ? Nothing
but the objection lo its government; and
these readily vanish when we reflect that this
country must inevitably belong to the United
Slates in a few years ; but could it not, the
Mexican government from its remote distan-c
nnd peculiar situation must ever pursue a lib-
eral policy towards the settlers of this p ro .
vince.
What we havo said above is but a faint
sketch of a few ofthe advantages arising from
getting land of greater production for almost
nothing, than giving fifty and one hundred do!-
lars per acre in Louisnna. And there is no
part of that province to which these advanta
ges apply with more force than to that portion
of it granted to tho Into Col. Reuben Ross,
owned principally by a company of gentlemen
in Nashvillo. This grnnt has tho advantage
of bordering for a considcrublo distancoon tho
United States.
The company have judiciously selected
General William Arnold to proroed to Mexico
to obtain some changes in the grant, and of
whose success they havo the most entire con
fidence, founded not only on tho ground of tho
aeluul consideration rendered for tho succes
sion by Ross, but from the intimate acquain
tance which Gen. Arnold possesses of their
habits,institutions, &c. obtained by much trav
el und experience in that country. X. Y.

As Mr. Artemas Hcmminwny, of Pcpperell

Scnliurn the man alluded to, was arrested,

Seaborn, it appears has been in the employ
of Mr. Smith, as an overseer, at n Brick Yard,
about two miles from town—had come info
town on the evening of the fire, and slept in I
the store ; tho clerk being absent. This cir-1
cnmsl.ance in connection with that of his liav-|
