bo!l rrT y ’° bc ande P lored by both. When
bonier collisions come to receive the sane ion,
r to be maJe on the authority of either go
\ernment, general war must be the inevitable
result. v\ hile it is the ardent desire of the
suited states to cultivate the relations oi
peace with all nations, and to fulfill all the
duties of good neighborhood toward those
who possess territories adjoining their own,
that very desire would lead them to deny the
right of any foreign pwer to invade their
hounoary with an armed force. The corres
pondenc'* between the two governments on
this subject will, at a future day of your s s
mon, be submitted to your consideration ; and
in the meantime, I cannot but indulge the
hope that the British Government will see the
propriety of renouncing, as a rule of future
action, the precedent which has been set. in
the affair at Sciilosser.
In what position does the affair of the Car
oiine now stand ? It will be recollected that,
uii ler the administration of Mr. Yeti Boren
atonement was demanded of the British Go-
v eminent for the illegal invasion of our terri
tory. Lp to the period of the entrance of
Gen. Harrison into the Presidency, no answer
had been received to the demand’. Since, and
during the last year, we find -Mr. Webster, m
an official communication to the iir.tish -Min
ister, Mr. Fox, the principal object of which
was to explain the organization of the Courts
of New York, and the impossibility of wrest
ing McLeod from their jurisdiction except bv
due course of law, settingforth specifically the
facts necessary fur (treat Britain to establish ‘<>
the Caroline affair, and restore the
wounded honor of the United States. One won and
naturally suppose ihat this step on the part ol
the American Government was not lake.i i
without a full review of all the circumstances,
and ftn entire conviction of our perfect rich:. to!
indemnity for tho violation of onr territory. \
Any other supposition would argue a want ol
judgement and of prudence to the last degree
censurable and inexcusable. Thus rested
the case, a we understand it, at the time ol
the transmission of the annual message of the
President at the opening of the present sea-i
frion of t'ongress, and from which we have 1
made the above extract.
What is the language of the above extract ?
Does it hint remotely even that the United
States will fee! it their duty to prosecute the
matter further! Or does it content itsefl
with a simple reiteration of the flagrant char,
acter of the outrage, and the indulgence oi a
/tope that the British Government will abstain
in future from similar acts of aggression! Ii
it go a single step beyond, we are unable to
detect the sentence or the paragraph wherein
such a sentiment is to be found. W at ren
ders this evasion of ihe subject on the part of
the President doubly humiliating is the lac!
that, subsequent to the demand lor atonement
on the part of the United States, and while the
British (Jove mm ml, by its deathlike silence,
teas nt infesting the utmost ix:hkit!ikxce
regarding our application for reparation —the
arrest ol McLmd growing out of the same
transaction, caused carta in proceed, ngs, of a
most peremptory character, to bo taken by
the British autli irities, requiring action, of an
equally peremptory character, by the Ameri
can Government, which the latter did nut hes
itate an instant to adopt. The mortifying
spectacle was exhibited, in tho face of a.i
illegal, violent and murderous entrance inn;
the territory ot a counfry with whom Eng
land was at peace, an act wholly umtouml
for, in which England was herself the ag
gressor —that had been ostentatiously and
impudently endorsed by the British Govern
jn.nnt—:m 1 tho actors m it highly h mured,
while the application for redress was treated
with marked neglect —,ve say in view of this
outrage, and the subsequent conduct of Great
Britain respecting it, adding insuit to injury—
the mortifying spectacle aas exhibited of the
Government of this great, n.i. oii despatching
an important member of the Administration to
a distant point to execu e, in all strictness, the
orders of the British Government, as conveyed
in a most menacing tone by the English Min
ister at Washington. Having witnessed the
yielding and submissive character of the ac
tion of the American Government, in the case
of .McLeod, it was hoped that the disgrace
properly attaching to us would be, to some
extent, obliterated by a prompt and continued
demand for suitable reparation for the inva
sion of our territory, and that this demand
would, under no circumstances, be yielded
until ample indemnity was obtained. What
aspect does the case now presen; ! The na
tion disgraced bv its conduct in the case of

withdrawn, it haring been peremptorily made,
and the British (Sovcrnriu nt not noticing u so
far even as to acknowledge that satisfaction tout

Congress to distribute the proceeds of the
Public hands among the States.
The action of the S mate of that S'ate upon
the subject has been, we l>elieve, equally de
cisive, and to the same effect.
Resolved, That Congress have no constitu
tional authority to dispose of all or any ut the
revenue or property of the Federal Govern
ment tor any other than national purposes, for j
which alone they were vested m the Govern*
incut. Passed unanimously.
Resolved, That the late act of Congress,
called mi act to appropriate the proceeds ot
the sales of the public lands, and to grant
preemption rights, is a violation 01 the trust
created by the cession 0! the public domain, j
Passed unanimously.
Resolved, That this Legislature will not
appoint (and that the Governor is enjoined
not to appoint) an agent to receive such por- I
tions of the proceeds of the public lands as
may be appropriated under the late act ot
Congress. Passed —ayes ‘Jo, noes 10.
Resolved, That the Governor be requested
,to traiismit copies ot this report nd resolu

several State.*, requesting them to lay the
same before th? several Legislatures, and so
licit their co-operation in annulling and re
pealing the late act of t on cress above men
tioned: also to our Senators and Representa

best efforts to procure the repeal of said law,
and to prevent the abstraction of any portion
of the national revenue under color of its pro
visions. Passed unanimously.

.MH, Howards sa
vassah republican.
Owing to an absence of a few weeks from
our poet, wt* have been debarred the pleasure,
at an earlier moment, of holding communion
with ihe Savannah Republican, on the merits
and demerits of the report and resolutions ol
.Mr. Howard, of Muscogee, chairman of the
joint committee on the State of the Republic,
at the recent session of the Legislature
Georgia. The comments of the Republican
arc quite voluminous; and that they are as
unique as extended, the following paragraph
in the very commencement of the article wil*
most, abundantly testify :
“ This document (Mr. Howard’s report) is
well written, modestly vvrdie , and tine odor
oi mock humility and sober patriotism tingles
,in your nostrils as you read it. One would
suppose on reading it, that iu object was to,
bring hack straying sheen to the only secure I
mid. It has all the unct on of a homily, tne
pungency of o.;t> of Voltaire’s epigrams, tlie
elevated style of onr early state papers, the
.-übtlety of a scholastic argument, and, above
all, the Janus faced hypocrisy, and the unpar
alleled assurance of an electioneering annual,
issuing (mm the hands oi a locofoco majority
of the committee on Finance of the Georgia
Legislature, far the year of our Lord one
thousand eight hundred and forty-one.”
The strange and extraordinary qualities
here attributed to tlie report had wholly esca
ped out notice; and its purely novel and ori
ginal character, as defined by the Republican,
may have given r.se to tli a purely original and
unprecedented action of the whig portion ol
the Legislature, when tins remarkable paper
was presented tu its consideration. It seemed,
indeed, to bear with.n itself something
unearthly, from the consternation and dismay
it spread among the State Rights party, and
their invincible aversion, as manifested in the
Legislature, to “touch, taste, or handle
the unclean tiling.” Judging from the con
duct of. our political opponents, and their de
clarations of its wholly intangible character,
the document was ne.ther this thing nor that,
and yet a mixture if both, so constructed as to
display in each and aery line, pure principle
and downright heresy. Such a document tru
ly ! Win has ever seen its parallel?
“Thereport commences,”says the Repub-
lican, “as sucli reports usually commence*
wi ft much palaver about tlie republicans ol
‘O6 and 1800.” Now ceriam doctrines here
toiorc avowed by the Republican, and in the
very article uptgi which we are commenting,
would imply the belief that the Republican
d,d .seriously consider any allusions to the re
publicausoi ’9B and 1800, and their principles
as “palaver.” Ihe Republican has hereto
fore avowed its belief m the constitutionality
ol a protective tariff and has in ide some efforts
to induce tiie State ol Georgia to adopt ilie
system; and in the very article ‘which has giv
en rise to these remarks, it denies tlie aboli
inmisni of Mr. Everett, and views “the at
t mpl now making to abolish tlie veto power
ol the Executive branch, as a sure safeguard
to the liberties oj the p-op/e .” The Republi
can lias the most p&rlect right to entertain
these opinions, and its purity of motive we
have not the slightest design to question ; yet
if we understand aright ihe principles up
held by the Republicans of ’9B and 1809, they
are diametrically opposed to those sustained
by ;he Republican, and that, therefore, our
respected contemporary is, in fact, speaking
his real sentiments when he characterises as
“palaver,” any allusions to tho republican
principles of 1900, and the glorious results
they have achieved. The constitutionality
and utility of a protective tariff!—the ortho
dt.xy of the opinions of Mr. Everett respect
ing slavery ! and the total abolition of the ve
to power as enhancing the liberties of the peo
ple! all proclaimed by the Savannah Repub
lican. With all respect, we submit whether
the principles of the republican party in the
days of Jeilersou can appear, in its eye, as any
thing else than mere “•palaver”?
To that portion of the report of Mr. Howard
which intimates that the promises of “econo
my, retrenchment and reform,” winch brought
the Whig Administration into power, have not
been fulfilled, the Republican, without e fiter ing
ad uinl, simply opposes the statement that
similar promises made by the friends of Gen.
Jackson iu 1828, were not carried out.
The part of die Report which condemns
the mode of legislation adopted at the
session of Congress, is met, by the Republi
can, in the same (onclusi re manner. “ And, j
‘(says that journal) is such language to be :
held by those who tolerated and evenap-l
proved ot the imperious dictation of General.
Jacksan to the American Senate ? Is it right
to talk about “rapid and indecent haste,’ j
when all the Loeofocos in the country con-j
demised the National Legislature for wasting;
so much precious time ! Are no* the W higs j
abused, nay, insulted before the country, for)
tlwrir very merits! lias not the House oft
Representative# a right to make its own rulesl
to expedite business, and if the cue hour rule !
! e oppres.-ite, is it not as much so to the 111 a -!
jonty as to the minority! Talk about the in-;
fringement of the right of debate J Os the j
rights of members of Congress ! ”
We tie not see in the above extract any de
nial of the statements contained in the Report
of Mr. Howard ; or any attempt to justify thei
proceedings represented in that document, as )
so objectionable.
But is the Republican really serious in its
declaration that members of Congress have
no rights —so tarns the right of debate is con-,
cerned! Is not the right of the constituent
the right of the member ! And is not the
House of Representatives made, by the Con
st r ution, a deliberative body; and can there
, be, legally, any mlrmi'ement of the right of
debate ! It the House has the power to limit
the deliberation of a member to one hour, has
it not an equal right to abolish deliberation al
together ! And would sum as ep be consti
tutional ! Can the Republican point to an
: instance, during the whole period of the ad-
ministrations of Jackson and Van Buren, or,
! indeed, since the formation of the Govern
ment, of the exercise of such tyranny by lie,
majority over the minority, as was exhibited;
at the late extra session ? Did not \\ tn. V\ .
Irwin, a zealous Whig member of Congress;
, from Pennsylvania, say, in a letter to h s
i constituents, that “the rapid and indecent
haste ” with which the Bank Bill was hur
r.ea through the House of Representatives, in j
the course ot a few kvurs , without the altera j
non of a line or even of a letter, a bill of great:
length, too, “ had no parallel iu the legislation
of a people governed by a written constitu
tion ! ” And is the Republican sustaining
! z-j£ originating in political /’-waw, and which
are ever, now receiving the decisive condem
nation of the country!
The Republican next exercises its powers
on that portion of the report which deprecates
I the appointment of Mr. Everett as Minister to
England. It says the conclusion drawn
in the subjoined extract from tlie report is
wholly inaccurate:
“ It does indeed appear somewhat extri
ordinary to this conimitle**, that while we ere
resisimg the agitation of Uie Abolition ques
lion hi eveiy form whatever, as tintuuisliiu
tmtial, dangerous, and tending to the disso
luiion of our glorious Union, charac’eriz ng
by ltie harshest epithets all who even by in
doecitim, give to it the slightest countenance,
a southern Seim tor should be found to eon- !
iribu o to the elevation of one so obnoxious
j to our feelings and so hostile Ip our interest,
i and |iarlicutarlv of ail individual who has
avowed hoi aooluion principles, in ilieir crust i
imposing lorin and amplest extent.”
Wherein consists tlie laliacy of the reason
ing? How is the excitement against slave
ry, which all admit in exist In a greater or
less extent, and that is universally ainijtted
will lead to disagreeable consequences unless
suppressed—in be allayed and finally extin
gu.slied except hy pulling the mark of con
demnation on the principal agitators? And if
tins excitement is (minded in impure princi
ples, and contemplates unconstitutional acts,
is there any disliancliisement—any proscrip
tion in proscribing the traitor—the • (isuniou
isi—(or what other appellation can you give
to the Abolitionist, if the practical exercise of
his opinions dissolves the Union—destroys
the Republic? But Abolition petitions must
be excluded from Congress— yet ‘he signer of
them is, in no wise, censurable. We fight the
shadow , and hug the substance. What is the
petition but a piece ol’paichnient ? Whence
delives it any vitality except from the action
ihe conduct of the signers J And yei we
have beard of all the members from the
slave-holding Stales, in case the door of Con
gress was thrown open to tlie reception
merely of these petitions—these pieces ol
parcliineti', seriously contemplating a with
drawal 1 1 om their seats, iheiebv producing a
dismemberment of the Government. The
agitatoi—the signer rebuked—would you
hear of the petition ?
But, says the Republican, “ We challenge
ary one to the proof thal he (Mr. Everett,)
is an Abolitionist. Let t tie Commit lee give
ihe evidence to the world, if they have it.”
H is the Republican never seen ihe letter of
Mr. Everell written in 1839? Is it ignorant
ol ihe Massachusetts Resolves—of their
premises and their conclusions —high repudi
ated and condemned hv the whole South?
And vet proof that Mr. Everett is-an Aboli
tionist is challenged 1!
Further, in reference to this particular top
ic in die report. Is the Republican entirely
cei lain that Mr. Berrien was inclined to sus
tain ihe nomination of Mr. Everett during
ilie whole period that nomination was before
the Senate, and up to ‘.he period ii ws dis
posed •I? Are there not well authenticated
rumors that, owing to the dissatisfaction and
open opposition of Southern Senators, Mr.
Berrien included, the nomination remained
for many wetks, perhaps months, on the ta
ble of the Senate—the friends of Mr. Everett
being afraid to call it up? lias the Republi
can never heard tl at. probably, on no day
previous to the one on which die nos®illation
was confirmed, could it have been confirmed
—and that Mr. Berrien persisted in his
imposition quite up to that day ?
Has the Republican looked at the vote to
see what southern whig Senators were absent,
or did not vote ! Were not the nominations
of Eastman, for district attorney of New
Hampshire,and Wilson, for Surveyor General
of Wisconsin and lowa, opposed for like rea
sons as the nomination of Everett—and are
not tlie names of Messrs. Henderson of Mis
stssippi, and Barrow, of Louisiana, found in
ojrposition to those appointments — and is
it not reasonable to suppose that, if presen ,
tlreir votes would have been gi e-n in opposi
lion to Everett! And may not an inference
arise that action on the nomination of Everett
was deferred until the last moment, when
some of these gentlemen, exhausted by a long
session, would, in all probability, have taken
their departures to their respective abodes?
It is so said. Mr. Henderson, Mr. Barrow,
and Mr. Wright, of New York, who was call
ed home by serious indisposition in his family,
voting in opposition, would have raised the
negative vote t<> 88—requiring only Mr. Ber
rien and one other to have produced a rejection.
In this view ol the case, is it not clear tha*
the exercise of trick and management, and
the dereliction of certain southern senators,
ard not the unbiassed will of a majority of
llie Senate, secured the approval of the nom
ination of Mr. Everett } And did not Mr.
Berrien sjiow liis devotion to party, regardless
of the interests of his constituents, by sus
laining the nominations of Everett, Wilson
and Eastman, prominent and distinguished ab
olitionists j
We pass over other nortions of the article
| of the Republican until next week, ami come
to the concluding paragraph. The Republi
can, after copying the following resolution
re por ed by Mr. Howard, adds what succeeds
; that resolution;
1 “ sth. Resolved, That we view the attempt
i now making to abolish the veto power of the
| executive branch, as a dangerous attack upon
, ihe liberties of the peo le, and hostile to ‘he
first principles ot a republican government.”
“Now we view the attempt which is making ;
i to abolish the veto power of the executive j
j branch, as a sure safeguard to the liberties of
’ theptop e.”
Here is an admission, it will be perceived,
of the truth of what the resolution asserted,
that an attcmpl was making to abolish ihe
1 veto {mwer, and ihe Republican avows its
i acquiescence it) that atiempt—and vei mem
: . .
hers of ihe Legislature were horror struck
that even an imimalion should he made, thai ,
there was any serious effort exhibited, in any
quarter, to abolish the veto power.
A Novel Incident —We perceive by the
following from liie Tu-caioosa (Ala.) Moni
tor, of the 16 h mst., that ihe Legislature ot
1 ennessee mlj uirm and, without el cimg Sena

’ we suppose, go unrepresented for tiie next

history of the country;

B VXKRUPT LAW. PUBLIC MEETING.
We regie l , our inability to publish the pro
ceedings of a meeting held in ibis city, a few
days since, respecting the Bankrupt Law*
and inserted in the Georgia Argus ol yester
day, We perpeive v however, from the re
marks of Mr. Quin, that, in one particular*
lie misapprehends ihe actual terms oft Lat
law. Ties misapprehension is not confined
alone tu. Mr. Quin; and ii is one which
would naturally arise from a hasty examina
tion of the first section ol the Bjll.
Mr. Qtiin understands ihe law to exc’ude
from its benefits, persons owing less than
§SOO lo one person, and less ihan §2OOO alio
geihcr. Now tins is the compulsory—die
involuntary part of the lu.vv —ior it. is both i
voluntary and involuntary or compulsory. Ii
is voluntary as to all persons ; that is, a!! per- 1
< >n> whatsoever—no mailer how small nr ,
how large their indebtedness, can apply*
without any agency of the creditor, and receive j
a d<s- barge. It is involuntary or compulsory
so far as certain classes are concerned—those
engaged in trade, nr in some branch of com- !
ineroKil business, such as Factors, Marine In
surers, Sec., who can, provided their indebted
ness amounts to §2990, and to a-uv one iiuli
v.Jual to 8500, be compelled, on ihe oath of j
a creditor or creditors, it,a I fraud is coniein
plated, to come under die provisions of the
law, and make a surrender.
An examination of die law will show the
above to be a correct explanation ot the first
section—and we liav- made it to correct a
misai prehension not uncommon respecting
tl is parlicuiar feature.

GEORGIA. STATE Bi-ETS.
Efforts are making, having their origin in
Georgia, to induce a belief lliat the Demo
crats of this State have, hy some action of
theirs in the last Legi-laiuie, indicated a dispo
sition to repudiate State Debts. Why wijl
not presses, especially u this Slate which pro
less to view sucli a puiceeding with so much
horror, detail the actual facts upon which these
discreditable acts aie based, and lSi us permit
die country to judge lor itself, whether any

attempted to be inculcated laran.il wide; We

keep tiie subject alive for the purpose of raak*
ing political capital, to spread, the facts before
the people —ami permit Democratic Journals,
likewise, to draw conclusions. Tins is the
proper course. State the text from which
you preach.
It will be, we imagine, something like the :
amendment of Mr. Berrien to the Distribu
tion Bill, li is a most extraordinary —most
remarkable amendment—a perfect salvo to
the South—and yet we have seen no Slate

Georgia Journal and Savannah Republican
the two pajiers which seem to take it most

them steer which way they will, they are met

JGJGg COLOrI'IIT’S LETTEIt,
Columbus, Dec. 2'. 1841.
Gentlemen: I received your communication
j upon (lie sulycci of the Bankrupt Law, and le t some
i surprise thai you should feel no interest iu other meas
i urts now exciting the country. The Bank, the Dis
; Lribui.on ol the Public lands, the Loan Bill, the lirni
! taiioii ol die Veto Po ver aiul ihe Tarilf, are all
itons of vital importance to the public ; and yet you
seem satisfied to interrogate your Candidates upon ilie
| Bankrupt Law alone, as though that law was all in
; which you felt an interest. £ must, however, take it
: for granted, 1 suppose, that vour meeting und the reso-
I luliuiis adopted were honestly designed to elicit the
. opinions ol your candidates; in order that vour votes
might b cast for those whose opinions up ml he B.rnu
j rupt Law concur wi h your own. I felicitate myself,
: that you think the time is properly passed, when a
j candidate shall be permuted to refuse making new
; issues for I lie pu> lie eye or siiali expect a nation of
j freemen, to support linn with feelings “ a! in to gener
j ons conbdenco.”
ii am, and have always been, the friend of that un
| fortunate class of my follow cinzeis, who, !>v misfor
tune or imprudence, have placed themselves iu the
power oi relentless creditors. Very many enterpris
ing, honest men, are now oppressed, and tlicir ener
gies paralysed by reason of their debts; there should,
llitn, be a general Bankrupt law lor theirielief. The
constitution recognises its passage and humanity
yic-lds a hearty sanction. But while lam the fiierid
and advocate of an equitable, just and constitutional
Bankrupt I.aw, 1 am opposed to the one passed at life
Extra Sessi n for its iinconstitutionalitv—its inequali
ty, and for the ulier impossibility of giving it etfect.
; Too many look to the name of tire Bill wiihollt notic
ing its details, or its practical results. I would en
] large, but I suppose all you wish is, my opinion, withe
I out my roashtis ; for doubtless your purpose would
| have been fully answered, when £ should have said,
that 1 would vole for a repeal of the law that has been
passed.
With the fond hope, gentlemen, that some success
• ful method may be adopted to relieve you from your
! pecuniary cnib irrassments,
I am. with due respect, your servant,
\V. T. COLQ.UI TT.
To Messrs. Edmund Blake M.J. McMullen, Thos.
B Stubbs, Wm. B Cone, Geo. McNeil, Chas. U.
Itushen.
Communicated for the Colum.ms Times.
Democrats ! Republicans ! Georgians.!
To the polls on the first Monday in Janu
ary next, and shew by your votes that you are
determined to send at least three men to Con
gress who will maintain your i ip-fits at all
hazards. Who are the men you are once
more called upon to vote for I—Colquitt,
Cooper and Black —men who were proscri
bed for maintaining, as became southern men,
your rights and interests in opposition to such
men as John Quincy Adams, Frank Granger,
and Slade of Vermont, who that looks at the
measures adopted by the late extra session,
but turns from them with disgust. Are you
prepared again to send lukewarm men to
Congress, such as Boupherty, Gilmer and
Wright, whose principles (if they have any)
to say the least of th“in, are not defined J 1
call upon Western Georgia to discard all nar
row minded feeling, and looking solely to their
love of country and its free institutions, to
come forward, and as with one voice support
Colquitt, Cooper and Rack, the period is not
far distant when no matter to what party you
rnay.be attached, you will feel a pride that
you hjive sent such men to represent your in
to rest Questions of deep and vital import
ance to the south will be brought forward
during the present Congress, and in the lan
guage of our lamented Forsyth, let us have
the individuals who, when Georgia is inter
ested, ‘‘ are always ready for trial.”
GEORGIAN.
Every one confidently predicts the failure
| of Mr. Tyler’s scheme of an exchange bank
| of issue and deposit, and the probability is,
that the question wifi remain open until a De
mocratic Congress and Administration shall
take thtt matter in hand.
Thetariffquestiou has been discussed in the !
i cabinet, and, as was expected, the views of the I
different members were found utterly irrecon- 1
• cilable in regard to it. It is unde, stood that;
Messrs. \\ ebstor, Forward and Spencer are |
1 m favor of a productive tariff, while Mr. Up
i slmr and Mr. Legare are opposed to the prin
ciple of discrimination. The same difference |
- o! opinion will be manifested in Congress, and ;
will occasion much debate. But whatever!
may be done, it is very certain that the pro
tective system can never fie revived.—Wash-1

THE MARKET.
Cotton.—Since our last paper, die cotton market
has fallen off slightly, notwithstanding; the anxiety o(
purchasers to take all that conies. The quantity re
ceived ihis week is probably greater than that of anv
previous week during the season ; and we congratulate
our merchants upon ihe business appearance of the
citv. We quote die market at from 6to7J ; likely a
fine crop properly put up would go to 15.
The River still keeps tip, and we < otertain no
fears of ils being otherwise during the season.
Freight.—No change to report.
Arrivals —TlleLoxv.il, Chamois, Tallahassee
Gen Hatrison, and Wabash have arrived since our
last, wiih full cargoes ; so lhat the maiket. especially
for Groceries, is well supplied.
Exchange still keeps up. The demadd f r sight
is greater than the supply : we quote at 10 per cent ;
60 day bills of firs! class are worth 6 per cent.
