We might content Oitr selves by saying in general terms, that ad mitting these States bad not contended for die right, the existence of such a i'act could not deprive South Carolina of the, privi ledge of doing so; for it i a bad argument to insist, that the submission of one State to injustice and oppression, should be cited as an example, and made imperative and binding upon another. We will not avail ourselves, however, of such a common and universally acknowledged n axirn, but will again icier to facts, incorporated into the political and judicial history of our country, to disprove the unwarranted posi tion assumed by the President.

I'll is rigdit (lows from the nature of cur federal Constitution, which leuves to the several States absolute supremacy in all cases in which it is not yielded to the United States. I Ins sudiciently appears from the general scope ami spirit of the instrument. The Urn* ted Slates have no power, legislative orjudii ciul, except what is dented from the Consti tution. V. lien these powers are clearly ex ceeded, tli c. independence of the States arid ilie peace of the Union demand that the State Courts should, in cases brought properly be foro them, give redress. There is no Jaw which forbids it—tneir oath of office exacts it—arid it they do riot, irhat co rsc is to be taken T NVe must be reduced to the misera t.le extremity of opposing force to force, and arraying citizen against citizen : for it is vain toexptet that the Stales will submit to mani fest and flagrant usurpations of power by ihe United States, if (which Cod forbid) hey ev< r attempt ihr in. If Congress should >ass a Bill of Attainder, or lay a tax or duty >n art olos exported from any State, (from both which powers they are expressly exclud ed) such law s would he null and void, and all persons who acted under them would he sub ject to actions in the State Courts. If a Court ut tin- L.

Mu.

They say to the Southern people, noV where is the Sovereignty of the tates? here is your boasted idea of State interposition? Where is your right to secede a right which even the Union party ha-i held in reserve for the euro to the ir oppressions? All swept away like a cob.web. The Prochm*- ton says, the F*2orl Government lg * err, sad i'-s will must be obeyed, howsver grossly it may vio .at jl! o Constitution. Nay, a member of Concre**, or a of your most violent Tariff men, hag been aeard to aay, if Coflgrcs* were to pass a manlui?. gicWMttw under the Proclamation, the Executive wou.d bo bound to execute it and really if the (.octrines of that instrument are to prevail wbe docs not see that such is the fact. The Legislature ul I ennaylvania, has unanimously parsed a re#olu. u in highly approving the Proclamation, and de claied to the President, that the who!* militia oi the State wire at hia service, to put dqwn South. Carolina, and consequently any other etate that ahull (on e to resist the Tariff or secede from the Union, this was to linve been expected, because th* Te nt! tatea are fighting for their o w interest, to sun. port their own protective system, and wbat it worse, tiny will be putting down the S uth, wstli its own money, money drawn from the labour of Souther* planters, drawn by the very taxation against which ••cy complain, and used in arm* and ammunition to make them submit to it. My Ood !la it possible such doctrines will bo tolerated by the spiritof tha Houth.it they are, we have fallen indeed upon avi.V.
