CONSTITUTIONALIST. \\ lUGUhITJi ; | TUESDAY, JANUARY 25, 1825. 1 - . _ I On Saturday lust we were visited by a snow storm, and winter seemed in an an giy moment, to assume all the terrors ol 11 his reign ; but his wrath was of short dura- f tion, the snows have disappeared anti, calm ' and sunshine have again succeeded. ’ I Congress seems determined to suppress j 1 Piracy even at theexpei.se of the enmity P ot Spain, it Commodore' Porter’s incur.k fion hail been suspended for a few urn. -> ;r it would in all probability, have been au- h thorixed by law. Accordum' ts the Bill re- i ported Senate, and life recommeuda - H lions ot the President, our officers w.U luive power to blockade Spanish ports, and to pursue pirates upon Spanish ground, a ihe Weakness ol Spain perhaps justi- c fy suclia proceedure ; bii# will infallibly " lead stale of things—per- s haps to opeinlaaility— between the two na- J tions, ot whicllmireat Britain may so fur ' take advantage, possess herself of Cuba. Ihe Message <it Clinton is one of the prominent tupicksyof the newspapers, f and has received its lull#harc ot both “ good 41 and evil report.” By'shme it is extoded ( ’ as a document of unexampled longtliguid ( equal merit, and by others it is condeni- f tied as tedious and prosing. As the Gov- enmr is supposed to be looking to a sea- ‘ ivturyshiji under General Jackson, oy whom * lie was toasted, it om memory .dues not de ceive us, at Tammany Hall, a few year's since, amidst minty wry faces —he mayboj* pardoned for an overwrought effort to con- 1 vince the nation ot tne wonderful depth of ( his political sagacity ; and there is certainly ! one parted the Message which should meet a serious consideration every where. He ! deprecates yd pit lie teniis “ the centripetal ’ force” ot the confederacy, and pertinacious ly clings to the standard of State Rights. , Rite southern states will respond his senti ments, tor whenever the. Gilyernment shall 1 so tar pervert its powers as to trample upoh the just rights ol* Che Repuldicks 'tout com'- ; pose it, they must bb the lirst to suffer from the usurpation. Tiie magnificent, scheme ot Roads ajul Canals—the attempt to decide the question ol slavery for newly ‘ created, smtes —the interference with a defensive muiiicipal >egi lotion of S. Carolina—the' enactment pf a high Tariff and the strides nuking towards a syste u of prohibitory duties-—are enough to" awaken apprehen sious tor our future security. I’ne march of power is never retrograde—and unless there exists the proper resistance.on .die part of the states—die Federal Gaveriiiiient will go oil with its encroachments, until at last die states, disrobed, ot their powers, will scarce ly have a rag lei c to cover their naked and wasted forms. Let “ Obsla p rind inis' 1 then oe die general -watchword—let every Governor speak out; as did Gw. Wilson 1 and as does Dewit Clinton—let the Legis latures resolve—the presses utter salutary I , warnings—and the voice of the people be; heard, from the family circle to the crowd-! ed elections. The mingled words oftrutli, indignation and complaint, i- ay not he unheeded, and General Jackson himself should tate make him the President— may be awed by those who are tiie ti ue sov ereigns ot tiie land, and before whose will, even his must quail. The crisis; is as important as in' cresting. If .Mr, Ad ams or General Jackson succeed to the Prea-j idency. the inllucnce ot the Executive will be . exerted to obliterate the landmarks di-( yiding the I'ederal and Republican parties.) J.r,c Kings, Harpers, and Otises thronging unwind the mock Court at Washington, will j whisper in die ears ot the monarch ot four winters, the doctrines ot national suprenia-j cy,& personal infallibility. A struggle must ensue between the President at the head of) a party discarding the name of Federalism, but retaining its principles— and the Repub licans, who have suffered their ranks to be broke* and themselves placed in tiie minor ity “7 intrigue and cajolery—by clamors agairtst Caucuses and Radicalism. We are however informed that Mr. Crawford will | probably obtain the votes ofKentucky, Ohio! and Missouri, in which event these illbod-j ing anticipations may never be realized. ! —ijO©— The Legislature of Kentucky has bv a .'.M-ge majority requested the Representa tives in Congress from that State to support Gen, Jackson, 'ihe members from Ken tucky are elected by Districts, and will pro-1 bably not think themselves obliged implicit-; ly to obey the suggestions of a body having! no authority to controul their conduct. On the principle of Caucusing—without the application of which in some form or other our i isufutions could not exist---the citi zens of Kentucky who are assembled by reason of the performance of lative duties, have a right to express their opinions—and the members in Congress have an equal right to disregard them. -9O®-- The message of Mr. Monroe desiring Congress to investigate his claims and pe cuniary transactions with the Government, has been referred after a long debate. u» a select Committee, with instructions to re port the eviiie ice and explanations to be received from the President. This course was adopted at the instance of Mr. For syth, who wished to avoid all imputations of partiality to the House and at 'the same time to treat the message with a beconiing respect. It is presumed that no opinion will be expressed by the Committee, and that the subject will not be acted on by tiie present Congress. We are authorized to state, that a lot of 16s)iag« Cotton received by the -Steam-j Boat, Henry Shultz, from Charleston, which i was bought at 12 1-2 cents in that place,! jpdi/.ed a profit here yesterday, of twenty-l Svx dollars nett, and the purchaser can at { this moment realize a further profit on his purchase, . —-oO© A worthy gentleman who loved the eha racijn - qf La Payette, named his son after iiiui, and, thijs recorded the birth in the Shniiy' Register, “ Jlurkis Delijit .was brn, &c.” It would seem from the following para graph, that tins country must look out in case of another war with Great-Britain, or our seventy-fours, and our steam frigate will soon be hors ih combat. We must reclaim Mr. Perkins, this modern Achilles who will not save or serve the Greeks. Chas. Courier. “ The Greek Committee in London have been very anxious to obtain a few of Mr. Perkins’ steam cannon, for the purpose of enabling the Greeks to hasten the surrender of Patras, and the other fortresses in Greece which are held by the Turks ; but they were prevented from obtaining them by a treaty between vr. Perkins and the Ministry, for the exclusive right to these tremendous engines of destruction.” Extensive. Fire in Columbia, >S'. C. —We have obtained the following particulars of a destructive fire which broke out in Columbia, on lust Saturday night, at eight o’clock, from a gentleman who arrived in the stagfc on Monday evening. The mail being closed before the fire commenced, furnishes noth ing on tin* subject. Ihe ffames were discovered issuing from Hatter & Co’s store, in the square fronting Ricluydson-street, and before thev could be got under, consumed the entire square with the exception oP&'few houses, winch were saved by blowing up three unoccupied tene ments, the property of Dr. Harris. Ihe buildings consumed were all of wood and were situated in the most populous and com mercial part of the I’ow.tr; By the great exertions of the citizens, and particularly of the students of the College, the fire was ar rested in two hours after nt commenced.— she number of buildings destroyed amount ed to fifteen, exclusive of out houses, back stores, &c. It is supposed that the fire ori ginated by a candle being left in Halter & Co’s, store. O ir informant left Columbia at so short a lime iibcr the lire, that he can form no esti mate of the extent of the loss. Ihe following are the names of the prin cipal sufferers, with the exception of those ol a few small grocers ; Hatter Co. dry igoods store ; J. ty J, S. Flemming, grocery ; I Miller & Poole, shoe store ; Pierce tinman ; j Snowden &, Co. drv good store; Longenutte .confectionary ; Veil, silversmith; J.
