ZrihA Y El'ENENG, Tebriwryijjjgi
[Tfnre the appearance of another paper from
nffice General Andrew Jncuson will have been
meurated President of the United States. The
■ ^ration takes place on the fourth of MtJrch,
which day the new President takes the reins
internment into his hands, and for four years
wield the energies and destiny of a great and
,toy people. This day has long been looked
with the deepest and most intense interest. It
he a proud day, and a day of Jubilee to thou-
„,|s of American citizens, while some, but few we
' e. anticipate from it evils of the deepest ralam-
, J- war pestilence and famine" say they, follow
Jhe train of this "Military Chieftain." Hut we
tiripate no such consequences. We confident-
helieve that the wheels of Government will wove
„ regularly and as harmoniously as heretofore,
a , tile battle has been fought, and victory peich-
011 our standard, we can now. we trust, without
more, look with proud satisfaction upon the re-
Itof a hard contested election, which has placed
" American Cincinnatus, the Hero of two W ars”
the Presidential chair.
The election of General Jackson may be constd-
I. and is considered by a large majority of the
ion, as a triumph of principle over ambition, of
oi < otton on hand in Liverpool at the close of the
year 182l>, was’295,000 bales, and at Havre Zt,000,
a quantity at each port considerably short of the
stock on hand at the close, of the previous year.
The increase of the imports into Great liritain from
South America and the,East Indies daring the last
year is about 70,000 bales, and as these countries,
particularly South America, have but lately entered
into the extensive cultivation of cotton, it is to be
expected that should there be a continued demand
forgotten what,the provisions of that law were.
That letter says nothing of his having paid his
taxes regularly for three ycais preceding his
election, and of his having been an inhabilatr
oflhe State for the same time. His Excel
lency was then in Spain, and might very nat
urally have fpigottcu such requirements. If,
however, lie has ajways bel ved the provisions
of 1I10 election laWp obligatory, let him give (0

ment of Siute certain documents in relation to
John Forsyth, tine of ibe members returned

to make a part of this report. From these doc
uments, ii appeals that Mr. Forsyth was elected
a member of the present Congress, during tho
receipt of any/benefit from his Excellency*, 111-
lerpreiation of tho law.
I am done with his Excellency’s circular.—
Ii the first pan,of it had been in.the spirit,attd
style of the latter, it would not have been an
swered, ft has been nty intention to say no
thing in crimination of his Excellency, but , to
confine myself to what I consi der eo self-defence.
I have re-examined my former tetter, and |
am still satisfied that die facts stated in it are
correct, anti the reasoning soitnd But it is due
ftoin me to the people, that I should state to
them the cause why that letter was published: at
all. Immediately Hfter the Governor’s proclas
bullion was issued,' Ordering a new clectinn, I
received letter^ from different parts of the Stale,
requiring me to tnako some public explanation
of the circumstances which could have author
ized that proclamation. I was informed by
gentlemen of the highest resppct'abil.ty, ’nat
many persons in Mdledgeville ascribed my neg*
lect to notify my acceptance to rite Governor
to a delihpratedesign on my part; as I then un
derstood, and have since been informed, of op
posing the Gpvernor at the next election. The
proclamation produced an impression upon the
people, ilia I had not treated,the honor they
hud conferred upon me in the respectful mupner
that it deseived. I found myself, in conse-
querire of that proclamation abused, and niy,
motives misrepresented, for no offence but nit
act ol forgetfulness. I trust that these and oth
er obvious reasons were sufficient to justify be
publication of. my first letter; and I urn sure
that ho pc Son whit has read his Excellency’s
circular will ask of me an excuse for this. What
I have said of thq unconstitutionality of the e-
lection law of 1739 was,to account, in part,for
my forgetfulness of its provisions, and to show
that his Excellency had been unnecessarily
strict in its enforcement. I have not refused
to satisfy its requirements, nor do I intend to
do so.
In conclusion, I say to my constituents, that
Representatives in Congress fierivo their author
ity directly from the people, in the same man-
tier us do Representatives in the State Legisla
tures; that Members of Congress cannot he
deprived of their appointments by the Govern
ors of the Suite's any mare .than Members' of
the State Legislatures can.be deprived of their
offices by the President ofthe United States.—
The great sovereign authority Which the people
have rotained in their own hands, iJ the ap
pointment of their representatives, without con
trol from any authority. The people, ill tboir
ir. lie will faithfully perforin liis part in per-
mting those great principles i which onr free
itntions are founded : and in establishing that
ry which * ill most efficiently conduce to their
nine-icv. That the virtuous and intelligent
T'henation, and this we believe comprises a
Majority, will support hint in these wise
views, we should he unjust for a moment

where to answer nothing that should be wrirttn
against rile. The publication of his Excellen
cy’s circular, latoly made iu his own uunic, has
obliged me to alter my iuiemion. I shall now
howevcrjroply iu the spirit which his Excellen
cy’s ulauuer would jastily.
Fl his Excellency had confined himself toau
investigation of his obligation to obey the re
quirements of the elPc.ion law, a candid state
ment of ‘his owp opinions,-and the practice ol'
lornier Gdveiuors, in relation to ils enforce
ment, and an exkthmatior of (lie positions I
had taken in m'y address' to my constituents, 1
should have remained silent.' But’lie has
thought proper to deuy'ihe Jacts which I stated,
and the truth of my conclusions, so positively,
tbiit 1 believe all persons will agree in the opin
ion that 1 am justified in placing before the peo
ple some further material*, to enable them to
form u correct ’.judgment of tho poitits of dd-
leionce between us.
I said, in my former address, that the provis
ions of the law of 1799 had been so universal
ly considered ns mere formalities, aud without
compulsory obligation, that they had not been
recalled to ray memory. In this, his Eftelltm-
i v seems to think tli.it I ino .t he mi* ikc-n, lit—

In my letter, nfm quoting a part pf the elec

mils the correctness of my statement, and yet
list's these Words, Ihat “better information is n

than lie can possibly h ive who fornix n grave
