their own cause. In cither event, their set
tled purpose is to organize a Nullification Par
ty, the cned of which shall be, the doctrines
*of the Carolina Federalists,.Calhoun, McDufc
\ fie and H unilton, to the exclusion of those of
l Crawford, Troup, Gilmer, Wilde and others.
Put again, this same party have presented
us with a Congressional Ticket—upon that
ticket they have placed those of the patty
(Troup) opposed to nullification, who are now
members jf Congress and are willing to serve
again ;* but all vacancies have been filledfn-
tirely with nullificrs of the Calhoun stamp.—'
And for fear Mr. Calhoun might not be satis
fied, Iron their resolutions and actions, that
they were of him, they have placed his most
particular friend, the man who has abandoned
Lumpkin dhd the Clark party on his accouni,
the man vho stood opposed to Georgia at the
time of h er greatest trials, the man who sup
ported Cl irk against Troup, confederated with
[Gaines, Andrews and Crowell to disgrace oar’
State; ti e man who was leagued with Cal-
noun and Adams to defeat the old treaty and
slublish the new, by which Georgia would
ave lost her most valuable territory—I mean
'cn. Dt nicl Ncicnan—upon that ticket.—■
And this lius been done, in exclusion to the
futlicrs of our party—such men as Branham,
Jourdan, Grnutland, Carnak, Wayne, Dough
erty, Dan’son, Joel Crawford, and many oth-
ers of tlu choice spirits of 18251!
Messrs. Editors,—Let me exhort you nev-
ct to slei p at your post. “ The price of lib.
erty is cternul vigilance.” The test-oath of
Carolina may be complained of as oppression’,
but the spirit of proscription, of nullification,
is as tyrannical in Georgia as there. And
rest assured, that when this State Rights par
ty, falsely called, shall gain the ascendancy,
you will have test-oaths in abundance. So
far ns in lividual power could go, something
worse tli in test-oaths have already been re
sorted to, JUNIUS.

To llic Editors of the Southern Banner:
A friend has this evening placed in my
hands an article from your paper over the
signature of “ Justice,” which affirms that my
Profess irsliip in Franklin College, “ if not a
sinccur was next thing to it, my duties be-
1833. My case has not been a peculiar one.
Other officers of Franklin College have been
occasionally disqualified for the labors of their
stations by the dispensations of Providence.
The care of Dr. Henry Jackson is still fresh
in the recollections and regrets of the public*
After long continued afflictions and many in-
teruptions in his professional duties, he was
compelled to resign his chair and leave the
institution of winch he was a principal orna
ment. The present professor Jackson, be
sides occasional uttacks of severe and pro
tracted illness, is very often confined at home,
ut least a day or two by a periodical affliction;
to which he has long been subject. Other,
members of the faculty are at least some-
times sick, and yet I have not learned that
this has ever been made the foundation of a
public accusation against them.
I will not complain of the unusual course
which has been adopted towards me. 1 have
no wish to screen a single transaction con
nected with my office in Franklin College,
from the most thorough scrutiny. If “ Jus
tice” has any other charges to prefer against
me, I earnestly request him to give them to
the public without delay, as I expect to leave
the State during the present month. I may
be permitted to suggest, that it is due to me
and to the public, that charges which affect
reputation and moral character, should be ac
companied by the name of the accuser, and
that temperate and. decorous language can do
no injury to a good cause.

tial distribution of tho revenue of the United States
arising from the sales of the public lands among a
few of tho States i Docs this editor now recognize tho
advocacy of these principles as an evidonco of Mr.
Clay’s return to tho doctrines of’981 They are not
only the favorite principles of Henry Clay, bat ad
vocated warmly by him in the speech under conside
ration. And farther, he recognizes in the same
speech (which proves that he is returning to the doc.
trines of *98,) the principle, that the President of the
United States has no discretionary power, but is com*
polled to carry into effect all laws enacted by the
Congress of the United States, whether ho believes
them to be constitutional or unconstitutional, as well
as all decisions of the Supreme Court. General
Jackson should of coarse, tgrooably to this principle
of *98, be impeached and driven from office.because
he refused to execute the decree of the Supreme
Court in favor of.the sovereign and independent State
of Cherokee !-
The truth is, with the new lights, the doctrines of
*98 are every thing and any thing that can be brought
to bear against General Jackson and his administra
tion. When fonnd opposed to the “ old Roman,”
the rankest federalism—the rankest nationalism, and
tne most ultra Tariffism, are hailed by them as the
very quintessence of the pure?-t-Republican, Demo,
cratic, Jeffersonian, Rightful remedy, doctrines of
•98 !!
Analysis of Congressional Proceedings..—In the
Senate, on Monday, Dec. 30, the Vice President
communicated a letter from the Secretary of the
Treasury, responding to the resolutions of Mr. Clay,
submitted on the 19th ; which was laid upon the ta
ble and-ordered to be printed. The order of tho day
being the Treasury report upon the removal of the
Bank deposites, Mr. Clay addressed the Senate until
the adjournment, in a style much more like that of a
lawyer arguing a bad cause, who makes up in abuse
what he lacks in sound positions, than like the true
representative of a free people.
In the House of Representatives, a memorial from
the State Banks of tho city and county of Philadel
phia praying that hereafter tho accruing revenue of
the United States, dull be deposited in tho United S.
Bank, was presented, and referred to tho Committee
of Ways and Means. The House proceeded to con.
aider the motion of Mr. Polk, to re-commitj to the
Committee of Ways and Means the Report of the
Secretary of the Treasury on the-dopraites, together
with the instructions moved by Mr. McDuffie. On
Franklin College.—Alter a vacation of about two
and a half months, the exercises of this .institution
were resumed on Thursday last. Wo understand I t,lia subject Mr. Polk occupied tho floor until the ad.

required by a positive statute of the board to '
read t course of written lectures, and under
the in >st solemn obligations to do so.” These
charges arc grave and specific,and I might be
suspected of an indifference to public opinion
which I do not feel, should I permit them to
pass unnoticed. 1 suppose the accusation
refers to the Inst two years, us my rc-clec.
tion tffords sufficient evidence that my efforts
were satisfactory to the Trustees during my
first term of service. -
A little more than four months after my
return to Athens in Jan. 1832, I had an at
tack of billious fever, which, with several re
lapses, detained me from my duties, in all
ahoi :t five weeks. The studies of my depart,
merit were, the most of them, postponed till
my recovery, without any loss to the students,
Who were in the mean time. engaged with
other officers. According to my best recol
lection, the President heard six or seven re-
citations for me. in Moral Philosophy, and Mr.
Hopkins curried the Sophomore class through
a short sy stem of Rhetoric, which they had
commenced with nie. This study is pursued
indifferently, cither the first, second, or third
term of the Sophomore year, as the faculty
lirec, and it belonged as properly to the first
term, when Mr. Hopkins hud charge of the dc.
rtinent, as to a later period. Sifch courte-
nes arc frequently interchanged by the offi.
ers of every College. - In Jan. 1833, I went
o the annual Conference by the advice of
he President, who thought the interests of
he CMlege required that such of the officers
s were ministers of the Gospel, should at-
cndtlu meetings of the ecclesiastical bodies to
liich they were attached. I was also de
nied t wo days by high waters, when on my
ay from Eutonton to Athens last April.—
, ; ith these exceptions, I believe I was never
iscnt *rom my recitations, certainly not
to th in twice, from August 1832, to the
lose of the year 1833. Once or twice I
as unable to attend the weekly declamations
the f Impel, and in a few instances other
ember i of the faculty corrected orations de
ligned fir public exhibitions.
The state of my health did not permit me
write a course of lectures in addition to
y ordinary duties. I was unable'to prose,
utc sci ere study, and writing especially was
detrimental to my health, that I was com
lied to give up my private correspondence,
dscld im wrote a letter which business or
ty did not render imperiously necessary.—
r. Chi rch knew my reasons for not writing
lccturcs : and -1 took' several opportunities to
iurc It m that I would comply with the res-
ilution cf the board, as soon as my health
would permit. In the mean time 1 prepared
otes on the different subjects embraced in
y depa tment, and as often ns a' proper oc-
ion of ered, I gave extemporaneously, such
xplanati ins and additional information as
hought l ie subject of the recitation required.
This met led was probably as useful to the
dent is more elaborate lectures.
During tho whole period of my connection'
with tho College, I employed my best powers
for the promotion of its interests with uniform
and conscientious fidelity. I never in a sin
gle instance neglected a professional engage,
meat to atend to private business, for com.
any or for pleasure. Dr. Hull, who wus
iy medical adviser, and who was intimately
acquainted with ray professional habits, will
1 think, b ;ar me testimony that my exertions
were alwi yu fully equal to my ability, and of
ten greater than he deemed consistent with
proper regard for my health. Of the suc

Rail Roads.—We publish this week a memorial
to the Legislatures of Tenncssco, Mississippi, Alaba-
baraa, Georgia and South Carolina, of a committee
appointed for that purpose at a great meeting of the
friends of internal improvement lately held in Ten
ncsscc, together with an interesting extract of a let.
ter on tho subject, from a gentleman in Alabama to
another in this place. They will doubtless prove in
teresting to our renders.
We understand that the memorial was laid before,
and favorably received by the Legislature of this
State. The charter of the Georgia Rail Road Com.
pany, was considered by that body, as practically ad-
vancing tho views of the memorialists. We farther

Resolutions of *98, in their plain, obvious, and prim,
itive sense ; unobscurcd by the sophistry of modern
Federalists, and unimpaired by ths strength-wasting
refinements of hare-hearted Republicans ; They up.
hold State Sovereignty in a sensible form, and with
intelligible attributes : They maintain that the Gen.
oral Government derives its powers from a compact
between Sovereign States : That these powers are
limited “ by the plain sense and intention of the in-
strument constituting that compact; and that in case
of a deliberate, palpible, and dangerous exercise of
other powers, not granted ; it is the right and duty
of the States to interpose for arresting the progress
of the eeit within their respective limits and that
they have the right “ to judge as well of infractions
of the Constitution, as of the mode aud measure of
redress.”
These are the principles of the “ State Rights’
Party of Georgia,” the principles of Jeflerson and
the principles of this Gazette. Wo espouse them
