FRIDAY MORNING, JULY 14.
Sheriff Maharrey.
The reply of Mr. Maharey’s Private Secre
tary, in the Constitutionalist of yesterday, be- •
trays either so much ignorance or learning, that ■
we confess ourselfwholty unable to comprenend
the conclusion, which alone could require any
notice at our hands, and as they both rest very
quietly under the imputation of suppressing
truth and suggesting falsehood in the matter ol
summoning the operatives in tiie office of the
Chronicle and Sentinel, we leave them alone in
their gl..ry.
In confirmation, however, of the state- (
ment of Mr. Claps, we deem it but pro. er to j
state, that we have a list of all the talesmen, |
which was made as each name was called, on i
w hich the name of Mr. Clapp does not appear I
—a fact more conclusive in support of Mr. ;
Clapp’s statement than the certificate of five <
hundred men who were mere casual observers, j
and who only speak from recollection.

The Southern Chronicle and Platt’s Trial.
The following article from the Columbia (S.
C.) Chronicle, in reply to the card of Platt’s I
counsel, we copy at the request of the editor: !
From the Augusta Chronicle Scntin.l.
A friend has pointed out to us the following ■
article in the Southern Chronicle of the 28th ult. I
“Platt Acq.uittei>.—Platt, the murderer of)
Harding in Augusta, Georgia, has been acquit- )
td. The evidence is said to have been ot the )
most decided character against him, but his [
counsel succeeded in packing a jury of his 1
friends. The whole number of jurors, out of)
wuichthe selection of (tie twelve to try him was I
snade, was three him ma aniljorty-threc!”
Tnls is the first personal attack upon us, as
Mr. Platt’s coun-e., that we have heard ot, and j
whefe we, are known, needs no answer. As, j
however, the paragraph may be read by many
to whom we are stra.igers, we deem it proper to •
say that, in charging us with “paeking a jury,” i
the editor has wil.ully published a falsehood, or
.used language which he does noi understand.
WM. T. GOULD,
HE.yRY H. CLMMING, I
JENKINS & MANN. )
<Our colleague, Col. emuipKin, lives at a dis- |
t ance, < r his name would appear with ours.
We publish the above that tiie signers may ,
have tiie full benefit of our circulation to correct i
any supposed injustice we may have done theuiTT 1
We take occasion to say, at the same time, that j <
we think the language "employed in their com- ’
ment on our paragraph is rather uncourteous. i
We have not “wilfully published a falsehood, |
or used language which we do not understand.” i
We used the word “packing” in the sense which ) t
Dr. Johnson gives to the words “ToPack, 7’« ’ .
unite picked prisons in some bad design. j
That the jurors on Platt’s trial were “picked” >
we presume no one acquainted with the tacts j
will deny; and, in picking them, that the “de- i
sign” was to clear the criminal, we presume ) (
will also be admitted; and it the result be not )
“bad” there is no fjitli to be put in the testidio- j
ny of the witnesses or the animadversions of |
Hie press. In the edttori.,l columns ot the Au- |
gusta Chronicle is a statement from a cones
pon lent under the head ot “Trialof Platt —A 1
Markeryf from which we make the following i
extract: i
“1 candidly believe, and doubt not that 1 have
the concurrence of nine-tenths of this commu
nity, that the verdict allu ,ed to his been render- I
edin violation of late, good order and the welfare 1
if society, as will as contrary to the most positive, ]
undisputed and powerful chain of testimony ever
presented in this country to the consideration of
twelve men.” <
The editors themselves, moreover, with a
manly independence, have not ceased to de- i
nounce the jury for their unrighteous verdict.
Now, whatever may be the practice in Georgia, ]
in South Carolina our lawyers have a good)
-deal to do in selecting a jury. They consult :
with the prisoner, and make suggestions to him |
as to the probable bias of the juror; and this we '
have no doubt is perfectly consisted with what :
tliay consider theduties of their profession—on- :
Iv they are n it permitted to take quite so ex- '
tensive a r mge in their selectionsas the Georgia ,
lawyers. If, therefore, Messrs, Gould, Cum
ming, Jenkins and Mann, had any voice in se- !
leering the jury that tried Platt, we had certair- |
lyjust groan is for employing the language in
our paragraph—and if they choose to construe
it in a more obnoxious sense than is usually
.done, it is no fault of ours.
We happen to be somewhat familiar with the j
term “parked” as applie I to Court Martial, j
There a “packed” Court is tut lerstood to be one i
that has been selected for the purpose of clear- )
dng the person to be tried, in the lace of any ev
idence that maybe again t him. If the jury, J
therefore, was selected for the purpose of clear- j
ing Platt, in opposition to the testim.ny, it was i
“packed,” and if the con sei ai led in selecting i
the jurors they aide ! in “packing” them.

The Locos having used Mr. Tyler to their
hearts content, by obtaining his offices, now be
gin to throw him off on ■ alter another, l ake
the following as a sample. Senator Buchanan,
of Pa., at a recent celebration at Lancaster,
gave the following toast:
“The National Exchequer: As Democrats,
we were deeply indebted to John Tyler lor his
two bank vetoes: but whilst our gratitude was
gioxviag he cancelled the debt, by urging upon us
a Government Bank, mere dangerous to liberty
than either of the banks he had "vetoed!”

I’<r the Chron de and Sentinel.
\ Mb. Jones—ln the “Constitutionalist” of yes-
I terday, I perceive that a request is made, by
Sheriff Mabarrey, that you or myself will fur
nish him with"a statement of the “time and
place,” where certain remarks alluded to weie
made, and “especially with the names of any
other persons who may have been present-and
heard them.” When matters of this nature in
any degree assume a peisonal caste, they must
become unpleasant to all parties concerned;
but those who ha e furnished the cause must be
responsible to the public for the cjjccl produced.
It was with much reluctance that I consented
that my name should appear in connection with
the discharge of Mr. Jones’ editorial duties.—
That reluctance grew out of the fact, that I hat
merely related the conversation between Mr. M.
and myself to Mr. Jones, on Ihesaipe day that it
took place, without the remotest anticipation'
that it would ever be found necessary that such
a matter should appear in the public pi ints.
Passing over the Italian language, in which
I am untaught, Mr. M. says, “I do not remem
ber having—made such a remark to Mr. A. o.
any one else.” 1 will endeavor to refresh hi
memory, although there were no “other persons”
present to hear it.
• On Friday, the 16lh June, A. D. 1843, beini
the'second day ot “the trial” at the momen
when the crowd were leaving the court room,
before dinner, Mr. M. came to me where I wa
sitting, and requested, if my leisure would per
mil me, that I would remain a few minutes, a
he desired to speak with me. I assented. A>
soon as the crowd had left the room, he took <
seat by my side, and told me he had been in
formed that I had said that there were but six
Whigs on the first panel of forty-eight. I toll,
him that, in answer to a question casually ask
ed, I had cast ray eye around, and replied that 1
did not see but six. He then showed me a list
of the first forty-eight, whereon were marked as
Whigs, if I remember correctly, the number o
foitrhen. 1 did not acknowledge them all, altho’
1 trust they may prove themselves worthy o
the t ame which Mr. Maharrey gave them.—
Mr. M. then remarked, 1 thought with consid
erable trepidation of manner, that be had re
solved to prosecute the first man on u horn h<
could fix the responsibility ot actionable words.
1 replied, that in any excited community, it was
to lie expected that the truth would be exagger
ated and falsehoods uttered; and that if a man •
were to prosecute the participators in the fruit
of such excitements, he would probably firn
more than he could a tend to.
Alluding to the fouitUaliims of “reports,” I
asked Mr. M if he had n t said in the hearing ,
of Mr. Mealing* that Davis would not do, and i
that Lie rinan would, &c. &c., which language <
it is useless to recapitulate, as it has already i
met the eyes of the public. He replied, in es- i
feet, as has been heretofore stated in the “Chro- <
nicle,” whether the pronoun they or we was 1
used, is quite immaterial.
I have now complied with Mr. Maharrey’s
request, and have stated the whole of the con- 1
versation, in which those remarks of his were ,
I'Tfcircrt. as licaih* -» my memory -•
enabled me. S. J. ANDERSON. 1

(
For the Chron'cle and Sunt net. j
Mr. Editor—ln the Constitutionalist of yes- i
terday morning, 1 notice a certificate signed by 1
Messrs. LalL-rstedt and Malone, contradicting '.
the statement which I made in your paper of j
Tuesday last. Now 1 would ask, which would 1
be the most likely to hear my name called, .
those who had no interest in it, or myself, who ,
was attentively listening. I was in the jury '
box before the Judge came into Court, and re- )
mained there during the calling of the list, until ’
the Sheriff reported that he had gone to the end
of the panel, and can swear that I heard every 1
name that Sheriff Maharrey called on the first ,
panel di tinctly; and I again assert that my i
name was not amongst them. I then remained ; 1
until the second panel had been called over, and ,
my name not having been called, I asked Bail- j
iff Lindsay if he thought my name would be I i
called in any subsequent panel, as it had been ■ )
passed in what I thought must be its order. He
told me he supposed not, and 1 left the Court
House soon alter.
Mr. Maharrey in charity supposes 1 did not
hear,and says he is willing to put “this most favo
rable construction on my certificate, as otherwise
1 might feel unpleasantly” upon being contradic
ted by the statem nt of Messrs. L. and M. If
he supposes that their certificate would cause
any unpleasant feelings with me, he is much
mistaken ; for ii fifty such men were to testify
' to the sa.ne thins, it would not alter my views
i of the subject; and I leave it to the public to
) decide wh» is most likely to be correct in this
) matter. These gentlemen raaj’ have he ird the
| Sheriff call my name several times during the
; sitting of the Court, previous to Platt’s trial,
) but should they contend that they heard it called
I alter the tiial commenced, 1 have only to say
i that they are possessed of very “brilliiint imagi
) no mns'.” H. H. CLAPP.

Democratic Nominations.
The Savannah Republican says:—We can
not help thinking that opinion in the South has
been at fault in relation to the prospects ofMr.
Calhoun at the North. His nomination in
Maine was confidently predicted—Mr. Van Bu
ren is nominated. His nomination in New
Hampshire was regarded as certain. The Hill
influence is still paramount, and Mr. Van Bu
ten has been nominated by an overwhelming
majority.
In this State, the dissatisfaction to which w e
have sb often alluded, seems to be on the in
crease. The Athens Banner (Locofbco) con
tains a call to the Democratic citizens of Madi
son County to assemble at Danielsville, to con
sider the propriety of holding another Conven
tion at Milledgeville, in November next, to re
commend a suitable candidate for the next Pres
ident an i Vice President. A similar meeting
has been held in Crawford County. Here is the
call on the Democracy oi Madison County:
[communicated.] '
The Democratic party of .Madison county,
ate requested to meet at Danielsville, on the 17th
f August next, lor the purpose of taking into
onsiileiation, the propriety of holding a e*>a
vention at Milledgeville, in November next, to
ecomtnend a suitable candidate to be tun by
the Democratic party, for the next Presidency
■nd Vice Presidency of the United states.
Many Citizens.
Mr. Editor:—ln requesting the publication
jf t e foregoing notice, it is not our intention to
istract or weaken the Democratic parly. But'
oelieving as we do, that the late Convention, in
■aKmgupthe Presidential question, transcended
heir delegated authority; and believing that
heir recommendation is not the choice of the
Democracy of Georgia, we feel tha. it is our du
ty to repudiate the proc edings of that Conven
tion, and recommend the holding ot another, au
thorised to ex; ress the will ol the party. Will
not Clarke, Jackson, Walton, Habersham and
other counties, adopt this course ?
It is, as we supposed, hard, not for Democrat
ic leaders, particularly those renegades from
our own ranks who have assumed the I ad, but
tor the Democratic mass to forget, in the lan
guage of a Northern Locofoco paper, the Hart
ford Times:
“His nullification doctrines, his vote in favor
■f re-chartering the bank, his vote impeaching
Den. Jackson, bis casting vote as Vice Presi
lent, when he forgot his duty as a statesman
and a patriot, and gratified his personal resent
ment in rejecting the nomination of Mr. Van
Buren as Minister to England, They remem- ■
her, that from 1831 to 1836, he waged an un
compromising warlare, in concert with Clay
and Webster, against the Democratic party. —
These, anti other matters, are too recent, to be
passed over by the coo', thinking, sagt.cious,
reasoning, reflecting portion ol community.
The unanimity ol the press and of the Democ
racy of this State in favor of the recent nomina
tions claimed bj’ the Federal Union, appears then
quite problematical. The Editor prefaces the
call lor a meeting, which w-e have given above
in the folio win, terms. Wemigh add that the
same paper contains a sharp reproof of the Ma
con Democrat, for language undervalueing the
merits of Mr. Van Buren :
New Convention. —We publish below a call
for a meeting of our friends in Madison coun
ty, to consider the expediency ot holding a Con
vention tn November, the better to ascertain
presidential election? We have also received
notice ot a similar meeting, to be held at the
court house in Crawford county, on the 15th
inst. We nave given some reflection to this
movement, anj the more we think upon it, the
more tearlul we are that it may distract the ; ar
ty, and tenet to weaken us at the October elec
tion. If there could be a general acquiescence
in it, and the vote of Georgia on the Presiden
tial question be left open until Novembet, there
would be much greater probability of united
and harutonrous action upon the Slate nomina
tions, than may be looked lor under present cir
cumstances. But vte j.ar this would not be the
case, ano we would therefore respeetlully sug
gest to our friends the propriety ol waiving the
agitation of this subject, at least for the present.
We have in the field an active toe. Encourag
ed as they are by the dissatisfaction which it is
idle to deny exists in our ranks, tney will make
a bold, and vigorous, and confident push for vic
tory. Shall we yield it to them? We hope
not. We are strong enough, if united, to with
stand their attacks, and to overcome them.—
How shall we best secure the nece.-sary union?
By laboring to repair the breach already exist
ing, and doing nothing to widen it. Had not
the irienbsof Mr. Calhoun peisisted in forcing
his nomination in our late Convention, all
would have been well. But they would not be
warned, and if we are defeated it wul be owing
solely to that ill-advised nomination. For one,
however, we are disposed to acquiesce. We
obtained wnat most important—an uncondition
al pie.ge to abide the decision of aNa ional
Convention —and with this we are satisfied, be
cause we see no prospect, just now, of doing
better, 11, as we believe, Mr. Van Buren is
the first choice of a majority of the Democrats
of Georgia, it is right th.it they should make it
known; but there will be time enough to do this
after the Oc-o er election. To agitate it now,
mot/do harm, by xciting opposition, though ii’
all could agree to hold another Convention, it
would do good; for ail w til t then unite in the
election of Governor and other officers, fully
believing that a bony author sea to make a nomi
nation, would truly represent the public will.
But this we can hardly expect, and at all events,
it is delicate ground to touch upon.
We must not suffer any disappointment on
this subject, to relax our efforts in the Democi at
ic cause. Principles are of more importance
to us than mere personal preferences, and to
carry them out we unite upon the men who have
■een selected as our candidates. It would be
unjust, too, to our candiaates tor Governor and
Congress, to make them feel the weight of our
lisappoiniment as to lhe Pie iuential nomina
tion. They have been selected by a body ad
mitted to be competent tor the purpose, and are
therefore entitled to our support. We should
Iso remember that any act which may lessen
their ch ncesot success, weakens our cause.
Let us b • pru lent, but at the same lime ac
tive, united and energetic, and we have nothing
to fear.
An Insane Commentary.—The Asylum
Journal sustains the recet.t order of Gen. tscott,
of the array, to trim whiskers and retrench soap
locks. As a counterblast from sucn a quarter,
against the “hair-brained” tendencies of fash
ion, must be interesting, we copy the paragraph.
“ Attention to personal appearance is one of
the first indicationsof restored intellect; and we
rejoice to see one symptom of returning reason
in the officers of the Army. We may be singu- j
lar in our notions, but the practice of Wi aring
long hair an 1 moustaches, appear to our dis- I
rnf.t imaginations, disgusting and unchristian: :
i anil if we “crazy people” shoul I be found wear- |
I ing such uncommon excrescences, it would be
taken as an infallible sign of disordered intel
lect, (or want of it) —and we should have to
submit to an operation before being admitted
into the society of the “truly insane.” Yet, a
mong the sdf-styled sane there are many gen
tlemen (?) whose long, greasy lo ks -“sigh in
lhe breezes,” and who think them a badge ol
gentility.”

weeks and then tramps.”

The State Vs. Josiah Goulding.
A certiorari has been granted by Judge Shly,
in the case of the. State vs. Josiah Goulding,
now confined in the Jail of Richmond County
for safe keeping, who is under sentence of death,
and was to have been executed on the 23d inst
The circumstances of the case, as they have
been furnished us, are briefly these:—Som<
time in the month of May last, the prisoner shot
a man by the name of George Harbftt, near the
ninety-mile station of the Central Rail Road.—
The Justices of the Inferior Court of the Coun
ty of Burke organized for the trial of (jpulding
(who was charged as a free person of colo j
,qf wa
interposed, and a collhie.'al issue was made t?)
anj submitted to a Jury.—The evidence adduc
ed, proved that the mother of the prisoner was <
free white woman, and that his father, althottg
some portion of African blood flowed in hi:
veins, bad been received in society anj treakt
i as a white man, and that the prisoner had alsi
I teen received in society as a white man, an,
.had paid the tax of a free while citizen. Th<
Jury found against the plea of the prisoner, thus
giving the Couit jurisdiction, upon which, iht
Court empannelled another Jury, who loum
him guilty,—and the Court sentenced him t.
suffir death.
The certiorari, in this case, has been grantee
upon the collateral issue, and presents the ques
tion, whether a man, having a mixture of Air -
cun blood in his veins,—but having been receiv
ed in society, and exercised the duties of citizen
ship,—is not entitled to a trial by a Supt riot
Court: or, in other words, whether a person,
charged with an infraction of the criminal law.-
of the country,—who has been tteated by the
community as a whiteman in tiie exetcise of the
privileges of a freeman, —shall be tried as a
freeman or “a free per on of col"-.”

& Co., from Boston, via Albany, a Boston
Courier, which states tne particuiai s of the loss
ol this line snip, on the atteinoon ot tne 2d inst.
on iseal Island, oil’ 'Townsend Bay, N. 8.
At Boston several letters were received, a
mong which was one from Mr. Lawrence to his
famuy, giving tiie details of tne accident, and
speaking nighty of Capt. Snannon and his offi
cers. zinothei was from lhe postmaster at Ells

stating that Capt. Kendrick, wno was employed
by Mr. Lawrence, as stated above made Mount
Desert, as his first land, and immediately pro
ceeded to Ellsworth (a distanceol twenty mile.')
with his letters, which were immediately des
patched by the postmaster. Another was from
Lieut. Parsons, her majesty’s mail officer, to
Mr. Postmaster Gordon, giving the particulars
ot lhe loss. It was dated at Seal Island, J uly 4,
2 p. M., and was as so lows:—
‘ i he Columbia sailed from Boston at 2 P. M.
July Ist, wiih lhe mails lor Halifax and Eng
land, ninety passengers and a crew of 80 men,
in all abount 170 persi ns. On'Sunday, at a
quarter past 1 P.M. while steaming at the rate
of ten knots, grounded and heeled to port, wtut
her btw high up and stern in deepwater, h.cc
ing quarter less five abaft, observing splinters
from false keel andtour foot alongside, and fired
alarm guns, which were answered. At 4 P.M.
a boat with the master of seal Island light came
alongside, He informed us that the Columbia
lay on Black Ledge Reef, within a mile and a
quarter ot Seal Island. At this time the lug
u es dense and the wind moderate from S. S. E.
“As tne tide fell, pointed rocks ot a sugar
loaf form were seen, cuv.ered to the depth often
feet, and less than that distance from the bow.
The ship lay on an inclined plane o: smootii
rock, tiom her paddles foi ward, while her stein
was in deeper waler, and as she strairieu heavi
ly, it was judged best to land the lady pass, ti
gers, about twenty, who up to this time, hau
dis, layed wonderful lOrlitude and seh-pus-e
--sion, which did not desert them when , laced
under the protection of a perfect stranger, the
aster of seal Island Lighi, to land on a sun.ll
rocky and rugged island, inhabited by only two
families, being as desolate as it a i pea red And
well Mr. Hutchins, the master of tne light, ful
filled mat trust. His great kindness to tnem
and his efficient services to us cannot be too
highly estimated.
“At high tide, having lightened the ship by
discharging coal, anchors, chains, &e., tried tne
only engine that would work, and h ive on our
stern anc.ior. But although sh? roileJ heavily
on her bed, she did not start au inch. At SA.
M., judging from lhe distressed situation of the
ship and the falling tides, that our chance of sa
ving Iter was small, lauded the mails on Sea
Island, which we found to be as desolate and
barren as it appeared.
“ I'he lady passengers were very kindly, bin
poorly acconunocaied, with the disiressing
want of water, added to their numerous discom
urts, all of which went home with cbeerlulness
and resignation.
“I should observe that the b >at run ashore
while under charge of the well-tried pilot, Capt.
stairs, and that the cool, seaman-like conduct ot
Capt. Shanu m, with his officers an I crew, an.',
their indefatig ble and never-flagging exertions,
won my admiration, and that ot all the pass n

hrown John C.Calhoun’s banner to the breeze

I Sir:—l have received your application to be

MONDAY MORNING, JULY 17.
Although we do not \old ourself bound
to notice every anonymous writer who tnay
gtin admission into the columns ol the C.msti
tutionalist, for the purpose of making an assault'
upon us, thete are occasions when our self-res
pect will not and should not permit us to remain
silent. Os this character is the violent and per
-onal assault made upon u- by “Fair Play,”
in the Conslituti malist of Saturday. Whoever
he may be we know not. nor do we know it he
have cause of offence at any thing we may have
said to, or of Sheriff’ Maharrey, in our scrutiny
of his conduct in the trial of Plait. In the ab
sence of any offence to “Fair Pi.ay.” lie has
gratuitously thrown himself in the breach, a
mere “prize fighter," to cover the defeat ol his
friend the Sheriff, wh >se vindication of his con
luct is before the country, and of wltieh we
are content that country shall, judge, in the
whole of this contioversy, w« hive had no pri
vate animosit.es or political injurte i:> revenue,
b it have been actuated by the single de--ig<. tv
erretout an 1 expose, what we then thoug t,
tnd now believe, was a tn tnstrous fiatld it, on
the country—a fraud v hick, our position as a

■aL, entered upon the discharge ol a duty which
>ur obligations to the country ansi t ae cumin tin i
y in which we’live daman led at our hands,
f, therefore, in our eflotts to investigate this
raud, we had said any thing personally offen
<iveto the Sheriff, or which c i tll be regard'd
ihellous, he had his choice of feme-lies, to ei
herof wh’ch we were amen ible.
In repelling the calumnies ot the writer of
"Fair Play ” it is proper far u ; t.> rem.t.k, that
hepowerto inve-tigatethem imves ofothetsh. -
lot be-n deleg tted to man. It has been wisely
said, that “he who is corrupt is already sttspi
•i his, an 1 he who is snspr-io’ts, will quicklj’
reeome corrupt,” and will assure ily attribute to
•tliers what he, underlinecircti nst.utces, would
lohimself. We, therefore,feel authorise Ito hurl
into the teeth of' Fa h Play.” his cover: insin
•jati ns as to our motives of seeking to in.tke
•arty capital at the sacrifice of Sheriff \lahar
rey, tm-l pronounce him (“Pair Pi.av ") who
caul I suspect u- of a design a degrading, alone
capable of so ias: an act. This culumny, ‘qual
'y unfoun led andgralui'ous, is a fit emanation
from the int llect thatgave it utterance, —a man
who evidently seeks, by his article, to exci e the
?rv ot persecution, and tin !er its am] l" folds, to
shield his frien I from that infamy wltieh he is
but too conscious awaits hi n, —and thereby sac
rifice the laws of the land, and lhe well-being ot
ociety, at the shrine of party.
If it were possible for this boll and reckless
alumniator an.t Vb llr.r, “Fair Play,” to liter
n untruth more gross in its character, or mote
aggravated in itsconce, tion, than thatwhieh we
have ju-t repelled as to our m.Hives in demand

I leaped the whole from 1816 to 1537, in
j or lerto present Mr. C«_l oun's true “position”
jto his readers. He might have tested fur a mo
ment on Mr. C’s speech of 1834, when that dis
tingaisheigentleman used the*tbllowing memo
rable words, which his friends and lollowers,
and all his coh&:n' al nirers of his umsis cncy
together can never expiuig-': “ I might say with
truth th it the Bank owes as much to me as to
any other indivi.tual in the country; and 1 might
even add, had it not been lor my efforts it would
not have been chartered!”—Reg. Debates, vol. x.

Mr. Gwieu, instead of publishing the remarks
of Mr. Calhoun on the charier of the Bank of
1816, very politely introduces the subject to his
readers, but very rudely w.thdfdwsor withholds
Mr. C’s own language, by stopping abrubt’y at
die very point where Mr. Calhoun sums up the
expression ut his views in relation to its utility,
necessity and expediency. It is no business of
mine to interfere wit.i the^ relations which ma^ r
exist between Mr. Guieu and his democratic
readers, but 1 hope it will be no insuk to their
intelligence and understanding, to say to t em,
that they oU4ht to deinaiij the publicati n of
