insuperable repugnance he fob to
throwing himself upon the notice of
the House, but lie felt it his duty io
ntise his voice against both the pro

time go length into the subjm t :
his intention, io rising, was merely
to move that the commit<ee rise,
and tl*at both of tlie resolutions
might be pri ted. FD wished to

that the post of In nor was on the

indeed, any body should be with him
on Urn side It was a difficult and
an invidious task to stem the torrent
of ntihii<’ sentiment when ail the
generous feelings of the human
heart, were appealed to—But fir,
said Mr R I was delegated to tills

that might now strike for Greece,
the arm that certainly would have

While we are in that sea without a

Ad while the powers of Barbary (
lie in succession in onr path? Shall
we open this Pandora’s box of poli
tical evils? It has been wisely and
truly said, that it is possible the
mere rumor of our interference may
produce at Constantinople or at
Smyrna (hat which will at once drive
us into a war. We all know the
connection that subsists between the
Barbary states and what we may
denominate the mm her country.
Arc we prepared fora war with
these pirates ? (not that wcare not
perfectly competent to such a war,)
but does it suit our finances? Does
it* sir, suit our magnificent projects
of roads and canals? Does it suit the
temper of our people? Does it pro
mote their interests? Will it add to
I heir happiness? Sir, why did we
remain supine while Piedmont and
Naples were crushed by Austria?
Wbj did we stand aloof while the
Spanish peninsula was again redu
ced under legitimate government ?
If we did not interfere *hc why
now? Sir, I refer you i lb me m

Prom the Savannah Georgia,
The following circular in relation
to the proposed Tarilf. lias been for
warded to all parts of the slate of
South Carolina, incompliance wi'h
the directions of the public meeting
at Charleston. Can no means be
devised to sb?a n the sentiments of
the stale ol Georgia, oo this mo
mentous question ? An effVt is loa
ning at Washington, which, if suc
cessful, will prostrate our best in
terests, and which it is our impera
’ five duty to protest against, in the
most unequivocal terms. It is an
attempt to render the agrieultural
and commercial interests subservi
ent to that of the manufacturer.and
if not resisted, the consequences
may be our ruin, and that of the
whole southern section of *he coun
try.—ls we are not heard, we have
ourselves to blame :
“At a recent and numerous moo
ting of the citizens of Charleston,
called to consider the tendency of
the proposed Bill under discus
sian in Congress, to ficrease the j
Tariff on articles of foreign manu
faeiure imported into the United i
States, it was unanimously resolved,
that a remonstrance against the
said measure should forthwith be |
transmitted to Congress, and that a
Committee be raised to correspond
with other parts es the State, res
pecting the expression of their sen
timents, and tbeir <mi.operation with
the citizens of Charleston. Li om

we have the honor to address you.
