i In speaking of the late decision of the Su
premo Court, a correspondent of the Conner
1 and Enquirer makes the following, in the main,
very sensible remarks.
1 “If the constitution gives the Supreme Court
power to contiol the criminal law of the Slate,
1 the constitution gives the power probably lo ex
-1 ectile their mandate. The Supreme Court np
-1 proved the Alien and Sedition laws, that did
! not make them popular or constitutional, When
i a court of justice mingles with clamor of the day,
! listens to the whispers of fanatics, and attempts
! to di ed political feeling, it most generally in
r Aids a dark stain upon a reputation, which
j should be unspotted, [ ure and unsuspected.”
I FROM THR V, s. TKCF.OB AFU,
1 NULLIFICATION BY MASSACHUSETTS.
, Let the reader peruse the following resoltt-
I lions, reported February 9, 1832, by the com
mittee on Public Lands, of the Senate of Mas
’ sachusetts Legislature, on the subject of the
' northeastern boundary, and ho will perceive
that they contain good sound South Carolina
' Jeffersonian Nullification. Well done Massa
, chusctts ! Who would have thought it?
p licsolced, That the adoption o! the said line,
, so recommended by tbo King of the Netherlands
I as a part of the northeastern boundary of the
United States, would deprive this Common
wealth and the Stale of Maine of large tracts of
territory, which upon any imaginable result of
' such survey of the northern and eastern boun
daries, as is author ized by tile fifth article of the
j treaty of Ghent, belong respectively, in sove
reignly and property, to thu said Stale, and the
9 said commonwealth.
I licsolced , That the Government of the United
, States has no constitutional right to cede any
portion of lire territory ofthe States composing
! tho Union, to any foreign Powers, or to da
( prive any State of any land, or other properly,
without the consent of such Slate previously
| obtained, and that the adoption ofthe aforesaid
new boundary line, recommended us aforesaid
s by the King of the Netherlands, without the
I consent previously obtained, of the Stales of
Massachusetts and Maine, would ho a violation
3 ofthe rights of jurisdiction and property, hc
-3 longing respectively to the said states, and so
cured to them by the Federal Constitution; nail
s that any act purporting to have such effect,
B would ho wholly null and void, and in no way
obligatory upon the government or people of
cither ofthe said Slates.
Resolved, That as the adoption of the Gov
ernment of the United States of the aforesaid
new boundary line, so recommended by the said
King of tire Netherlands, would deprive the
Commonwealth of.Massaclmsotts of large tracts
ofland, without equivalent, it is not expedient
for the said Commonwealth to give consent
thereto: and that the general court hereby sol
emnly protest against such adoption, declaring
that any act, purpor ting to have such effect, will

Dear Sir:—Enclosed 1 send you the result of
our proceedings in the Jackson and Johnson
Convention, with a request for its publication in
your valuable paper. You may rely on the fact,
that the proceedings oftlint convention, are in
perfect accor dance with Ihe sentiments of the
great mass of Jackson men in Illinois, Johnson
will get the vote of Illinois in spile of all the ex
ertions that can be made by tho Van Duron men
against him; we have always been satisfied that
tire Baltimore Convention was started with no
other view, than to nroiuotc the deep laid schemes
of the New \o\k-Magiciun, He cannot, under
any < i. cumslanccs whatever, get the vote of Il
linois.”
A letter from the Washington Corespondent
ofthe New York Commercial Advertiser, under
date of At arch 20l It has the following passage :
“Gov. Lumpkin has advised his friends in
Congress, in letters received this day, that he will
not discharge the Missionaries, that he vvil nota
b union tire survey and disposition ofthe Chero
kee lands, and that lie will enforce the laws o
Georgia, in relation to the Indians and their ter
ritory, in opposition to the laws of the United
Stales, oi the mandates of the Supreme Court.
It is also said, in the Governor’s letters, that the
people of Georgia and their constituted authori
ties will all support him in maintaining tho laws
nf Georgia. By the same mail letters from
Georgia, ot'a most excited kind, in relation to
the Tariff, are received. The writers tin eater
no less than Nullification and war, in case tire
, rinciple of Mr. Clay's resolution he adopted.”

quire a patent for lands over the Mississippi, and,
at a proper lime, be allowed a delegate in Con

COTTON .41 UtKIT®,
We tro without later advices from Eu ope
than Ist. March, which we laid before our rea
ders in cur report of 1 -Ith Inst,
W e give the lollowing extracts of a Circular I
from a highly intelligent Commercial House,
dated Liverpool, 29th February :
“Since the date of our last Circular, in which
we expressed a favorable opinion as lo the pros
pects of the Cotton iiiaikct, an unexpected im
pulse has been given by the accounts of soiious
damage done to the crops in tlie Southern and
W eslern districts of the United States,and in the
Brazils; in consequence of which,there has been
an extensive business for consumption,as well as
on speculation. The supplies ,which wore not
expected to ho heavy during the month, have
been further curtailed by a continuance of easter
ly winds: Our stocks have thus been reduced
considerably, and the holders have succeeded in
obtaining an advance of jjd to id per lb. on the
prices of this day month. Os Mobile Colton,
of the now crop, we have had, as yet, no sup
plies, and very little of O,leans Colton; the
quality ol the latter is much inferior to last year’s
crop, and also to the new Upland Cotton, the
first arrivals of which were very handsome ;
later imports are already falling off in cleanness
and color.
“The Cholera having made its appearance in
London, produced for a time a great sensation,
and inllucnced our market for several days, du
ring which, little business was done : the slow
pi ogress of the disease in the metropolis, as well
as the doubt and ridicule cast u; on its existence
and its contagious character by the public prints,
have produced a feeling of secuiity throughout
the country, which may perhaps bo too early.—
At any rale, we shall not easily persuade other
nations to look uj on it in the same light; for the
present the shipping from infected or suspected
places in England is placed under a quarantine of
3 to 5 days in the French, 7 lo 10 days in the
Belgian, and 40 days in tlie Dutch poits; fioui
more distant places we are as yet without infor
mation; tlie restrictions cannot but have a very
unfavorable effect upon our commerce, and they
arc felt already, very sensibly in London. This,
md the probability of the disease rr-; BpJ
Manufacturing distiicts, preventsus f ' V

circumstances would lend to inspire I
“According to the most careful cs , I
which we can form, the supply amliL. t , H
tion of 1832 will be very neatly buiunceji
as the stocks, in Europe at the 'l9
'■o “amn of
year, were hut auflicient for three moi : 'H 1
sumption, the article of Cotton deserves a
able consideration. Accordingly, w e looCiH
our present prices, not only as perfectly safe hIS 1
also as capable of a further advance in the ro jH
of tlie year; the extent of it, it would bo! If*

Tim Georgia Courier seems to think dial tlie

Such individuals as the editor of the Courier a.

If the editor has not the penetration, to su
its ultimate end, i will endeavor to ex; lain it
him. It is xveli known to all who have the slight
est conception of the present state of circum
stances, that there are many persons in the &t ;i! *-
of Georgia, who do not perfectly understand d“
whole nature and objects of tlie Tariff; nor tin'
moanng oftiie Nullification. The object ot tract.-,
then, is to convey to these individuals this tnuc.i
wanted information. Its object is to shew tlx
oppression under which they are living—6’°
contempt with which their petitions and remon

them that the only remedy is Nullfcation
Knowing these to be tlie intentions and objects
of this “circulation of Political Tracts, I a!! '
sure there is no individual, who can, with an
unbiased mind, say, that it will not have a saiffi- 1
