V - AM&mivA, _ . , , . fhj We have not unnecessarily,designedly, oi unnaturally, “associated this subject with out politicsand whenever such association has oc curred, it was the natural result of their natural connexion. We might with equal justice and pro prioty, censure him, for associating it with reli jritn, by charging the mischief we complain of to “sectarianism” and “the pulpit,” and urging us to 1 “address the clergy of the north.” The association of it with politics, was commenced by the people of the north, in the Missouri and Tariff questions, and hy the Union party, in falsely alleging that the exposure of the assaults of the Abolitionists was a mere pretext of the Nullifies, to get up an excitement at the south against the Union. On the contrary, we have appealed to the northern people to desist, from regard to the Union, and shewn that if they do not, disunion must inevita bly ensue. And if we have advocated Nullifica tion, as the only peaceful remedy against anti-sla very, short of disunion, is it not to, and therefore plainly our duty to shew it T fij So far from this being the case, it is direct ly the reverse, Wo know not a single “ political - paper in the north,” which, if opposed to the A- I holitioniata, is not in favor of Colonization; and not one which has used the language attributed to them by our correspondents—not one, that has openly declared against all interference, of any kind; while, on the other hand, numbers have commonly assailed our slavery, and advocated, what was recently declared by one of them to be the "first step ” toward “ universal emancipation” —the abolition of slavery in the district of Colum bia ! Can our correspondent point out a single one that has either directly or indirectly opposed this “ first atep,” of both the Abolitionists and I Colonizationists t And if not, where is the evi dence of the friendly course he attributes to the northern papers generally ! (j.) “ Sectarianism is not alone its parent;” and we “ should not lay our charge at the door of the pulpit,” atone. Sectional interest, has had even still more to do with its birth, as the argu ment* on the tariff question have shown; and we would remind our correspondent, that the right of Congress, has been gravely argued on the flGor of that body, to equalize the natural bounties of Providence,between the fertile, sunny south, and cold, sterile North, hy taking from the former, a portion of its prosperous fruits, (which are attrihu. table to its slavery, far more than to itsclimatc,) to give them to the latter I The pulpit has taken it up, as it does Temperance, and almost any other popular subject which it can use to control public opinion and secure power; but it would be found difficult, we imagine, to shew that it origi nated with the pulpit, (£,) “ The clergy of the north” have been “ addressed,” again and again, and shewn, as far as oupstalcmcnts could reach them, “ the jeo pardy in which they (and others) are placing the country, and our (not ‘ their,’) wives, and lit tle ones, ourselves, and all that is dear and pre cious to ut,” not “ them;” for wo cannot see how they and * theirs’ are thus jeoparded ; and now, it remains for our correspondent, who is “a native of.and extensively acquainted at the north,” to shew, if he can, that such appeals have ever been “echoed by the Politicians of the north” at all—much less “till the remotest comers of the land heard them”—and if he can not and wo feel assured ho cannot—it will be rather dif ficult for him to “ convince the “south that they ever will do so. We have never yet seen a sin gle instance of their doing so. (/.) True ; “ the north will oppose Nullifica tion, [ southern nullification] however pure and good its sentiments may be, so long as they have the same interests at stake as they now have— interests which clash with the interests of the south;” though they will not hesitate, notwith standing, (as our correspondent admitted in a private conversation,) to nullify of themselves, whenever their own interests require it. But pray where does southern nullification assail any clashing northern interest, except their interest of assailing ours 1 And is it not plain, then, that they “ will oppose” it, merely because “they have interests at stake” which wilfully, design edly, unjustly, and oppressively assail ours, and it is our only peaceful and efficient remedy against such interested, plundering assaults 1 Yes; “and if slavery bo its companion [as there is every rea son to fear it will be, through their conduct.] they will oppose slavery too”—taking the same course against a nullification of anti-slavery, as they did against the nullification of their protec tive tarifl! A better picture of their opposition to nullification, could not well have been given, than is thus furnished by our correspondent. («.) Why, do not the thousand different movements there, against our slavery, and our nullification, plainly shew that “ the north is al " ready deeply prejudiced and excited against the south,” even though he may “ have yet to learn the fact 1” It certainly is not less obviously “the fact,” because ho “ have yet to learn’’ it. And when we remember the strange, criminal supine ness of the south, on this subject, and that we have not a single slavery paper, society, meeting, or convention, among us, to counteract the innu merable anti- slavery papers, societies, meetings, and conventions, at the north, it will really seem strange —yca,“ passing strange”—that ho should have “ heard more about it, since ho came here, [some few weeks ago, perhaps,] than he ever heard in the north” ! ! It is true, however, that the southern people do sometimes talk, and per haps rather loudly, too, when they see such vile northern calumnies against them as those which led to this controversy ; but the northern people not only talk, but act, and zealously, too! They subscribe thousands and tens of thousands ol dollars each, to abolish slavery, while no one here has yet subscribed a single one, to defend it; yci our correspondent would have us believe thal the prejudice, on this subject, is more active here, than in the North! He should reinem her, too, that our prejudice is wholly of a de fensive, not offensive character, while theirs i wholly the reverse ; and that a simple abstainmen from wanton and unnecessary offence, therefore on their part, would at once remove all prejudice on ours. We defy him to shew a single offensive act, on our part, against them, either on this sub ject, or any other! Let him, then, preach mode ration and forbearance to the north, instead of th south—to the aggressors, instead of the aggress ' ed— and not rail at us, merely because wc do no tamely submit to oppression and persecution, an silently, also, that its progresses may be uncheck ed, successful, and complete! Is not, this like tb course of the northern people generally, addin insult to injury, and calculated to drive our peopl to desperation, if anything can do so 1 Is it nc tile worst of mockery, to wantonly assail us, an then abuse us for our mere resentment or defcnc as though we were the aggressors 1 If he claiu to be at all just, we beg him to reconsider th ir matter, ere he again Censures the south, and the ir south alone.' > (n) He “hopes the bickerings which now agl il talc and dividothe country may cease; but knows that they never will, so long as the press shall - continue to make statements of an incorrect and a warlike nature.” True—the northern press— , and we pray him to direct his generous efforts a , gainst it—not that which merely occupies the de , fensive side. What “incorrect statement" have , wc made 1 Wo defy ell proof of a single one. t What “ warlike” one, that was not extorled by 3 the strongest provocation 1 Does he expect that , the southern people, only, shall manifest loss feel , ing than a worm ? He acknewledged to us, in , conversation, that he had already seen enough of I our slavery, to satisfy himself that the infamous . and degrading statements against it which produ . ced this discussion, are totally false; and yet, so . completely partial was even his self-boasted im , partiality, and liberal feeling, that he did not pause, in his censure of us and the south, to utter . a single syllable against those “ incorrect and I warlike statements,”—or the northern man, who wrote them, or the northern “press,” that puidiah- I ed them, and endorsed them as a “ plain, candid, I straight-forward statement” !! , (°-J Why this advice I When have we here ■ tofire, even “charged the errors of a few upon the , whole”! Did we not say, that “we did not, of course, mean to intimate that all Act in this way;” , and while those who do, are hy no moans a “few,” and the error is decidedly sectional, it is incum bent on all who would escape the sectional con sure, to endeavor, hy open disapproval, to correct and remove the error; since nut to do so, is to countenance and encourage it; and those who do not so countenance and encourage it, certainly are “ few.” We have been, indeed, far more than “ a little blind to their faults,” till such blindness was no , longer possible, and the continuation of it crimi nal. We were as utterly blind to them, even as our correspondent, till the light was forced upon us, whether we would or no; and, no longer able to shut our eyes upon the gathering evils, and fully conscious of the criminality and danger of attempting it, wc had no alternative, but to speak the truth, as it appeared to us, or stand self-con victed of continual voluntary debasement and de gradation. We can consent to sacrifice, if ne cessary, the approbation of others, but not our own. From the Washington Globe, May 3. Appointments by the President. WmiiM T. Bannr, to be Envoy Extraordi nary and Minister Plenipotentiary to Spain. Amos Ksnuall, to be Postmaster General. J. C. Pickktt to be Fourth Auditor of the Treasury Department. Michael Mahon to be Consul at Jaso de Cuba. D.;ranTMKST op Static, May I, 1835. According to the general anticipation, Mr. Barry yesterday took leave of the General Post Office, and Amos Kendall was installed in his place. In this movement, the Kitchen Cabinet are understood to have achieved a complete victory fl yer the Cabinet proper, who, it in the beginning of this Administration they came in a unit, seem to be reduced now pretty nearly to the condition of a cipher, in the Government. As for the rest, if it were not for the political objections to the new administrator of the Post Office, wc incline to be lieve, from what evidence we have of his business habits, that he would make an efficient Postmas ter-General. Perhaps, however, it will be. time enough to give him credit when he has deserved it. When he shall have earned it, we will not deny it to him. Dr. Mason, recently appointed Chief Clerk in the General Post Office, (a per sonal friend and connection of Mr. Barry,) has also, resigned his trust, It is said that P. S. Loughborough, Esq., who has for several years filled an agency in the Department, is to take post as Chief Clerk, This we should suppose to be a good appointment.— JVal, Intelligencer, Sr l inst. Official information received hero corroborates the private accounts, which lead us to apprehend that the misunderstanding between the Govern ments of Ohio and Michigan will yet load to bloodshed: a result earnestly to he deprecated, and, should it occur, deeply to he deplored.— lb. The Macon Volunteers,with their baggage train, passed through this place last Saturday evening, & were hero joined by the Georgia Guards; and both both companies proceeded together, on their way to the intended Encampment at Sandersville. The tasteful uniforms, fine band, and exact movements, present together quite a brilliant appearance. These annual encampments, as we may suppose is well understood, is to perfect them in the whole circle of their military dutier; which they are naturally anxious to learn ; knowing that such companies form the corps I'elite contemplated by our military system, as the first force that may be called on in case of any sudden emergency. Georgia Journal. From the N. If. Mercantile Advertiser. Seatol War in lire West, Commencement of Hostilities. —From the la t test intelligence received and contained in the ■ following letter in the Cleaveland Whig, of April 22d, wo regret to perceive that matters are assu ming a more serious aspect than wc had ima ' gined : i Maume, April 16, 1833—Witli regard to the . war, I will say, without entering into particulars, , that 1 strongly suspect that blood will be shod here in less than ten days. May God avert it ; but ’ if the present rash eours-of Michigan is pursued, i the sword and bayonet wi 1 have to determine the controversy. We are driven from our homss for acting under the authority of Ohio ; our houses arc broken open in the dead of night; citizens ! > taken prisoners, bound hand and foot, and tied to i wild fiery horses, gagged that they may not alarm j the rest of the citizens; the females, too, in the same house, are treated with violence, by being ’’ held and prevented from going to alarm the ncigh ir hors; and all this for saying to an individual, ho it need not obey the laws of Michigan. After litis j. first attack, 230 horsemen, armed with guns an I bayonets, came into our place, took three indivi -16 duals, two of whom they released. They were 1' not able so take any of the officers whom they le designed to lake, and were so exasperated that :y they fell at the Ohio flag, made out of cotton , cloth, and tied it to a horses tail, and dragged it A through the streets, and departed. The citizens re soon raised another, and three days after they ct came with an armed force, and took an Irishman lt for whipping u negro, after ho had been dared to do it; and look an axo, cut down the tree that ,C contained the flag, and bore it to Monroe, as a u* trophy of their victory, and burnt it. We can e- destroy this band of ruffians, but the Governor j s wishes us to forbear; and it is probably the best. He will probably be molested in remarking our nt northern line ; and then we shall have an op c, portuuity to settle the whole. Anew State. —A German paper contains the ve information that some scattered tribes of Jews, k* who maintained a sort of independence for a e- long time, about the southern coast ot Arabia, , have been lately visited by Captain Owen. .Ie c discovered that an Israelite, of the name of Ma ls' hornet Bin-Akel, has founded among them a ,ot new sovereignty, and raised himself to the tank ;1( j of Sultan of Morbut and Dschoffar.

Two Weeks have elapsed since we had any tidings from Europe. The public have long since decided that all our difficulties with France arc to ba amicably adjusted ; tho delay, however, has caused much anxiety to have the matter com pleted and fixed ; an arrival is therefore looked for with much impatience. Tho business of the city appears not to have flagged or fallen off. The spir tof speculation has rather increased than diminished. The canal is now open and pour ing in immense productions of the west into our city. The trade of the North River was perhaps never greater—the tow and stcain-hoats arriving almost hourly, arc crowded and ladencd with passengers and goods—every thing is life and animation. Immense fortunes have been made in a tew days by bold operations in real estate and stocks.

'l’he object of the publication is to disseminate . a thorough knowledge of the cultivation of the i Mulberry Tree, in all its varieties; Tho rearing of Silk Worms; The Production of Cocoons and ; the Kee ling of silk, in tho most approved method. Tho importance of this knowledge will appear . from the fact that the nett profit of land devoted . to the culture of silk, is double, if not treble, to . that derived from any other crop which can be . put upon it. It is also a fact, thal every moder ate former can raise several hundred dollars worth . of silk, without interfering with his ordinary ag -1 ricultural operations. But in order to avail him self of this facility to obtain competency and i wealth, which our soil and climate have given t him, he must possess himself of information on , the subject; for without it his attempts will be . fruitless. It is, therefore, the object of.the Com , mittee to diffuse this information as.extensively I as possible, and at tho cheapest rate. The pnhli , cation will contain a complete manual or dirccto -3 ry from sowing the seed Id reeling the silk, to . gethcr with such facts and experiments, as will , enable fanners to raise silk and prepare it for mar ] ket, without further knowledge or assistance. It ( will also contain interesting matter oh agricultural subjects in general. , Terms —Tho Cullurist will be published in r mon'hly numbers of Eight Quarto Pages, at fifty f cents a year.
