i posing excessive duties, but by inventing every expedient for squandering the public revenue. It iS??tlfon, this very majority, principally com posed of a people remarkable for their devotion to gain, and who have a direct pecuniary inter -£st in the oppression of the planting States, that we are told by Southern statesmen, have the supreme ami uncontrollable rigid, under the Federal Constitution, of doing whatever they deem to be constitutional, though in fact it be unjust, unconstitutional arid oppressive ! Yes, geiulameu, 1 have beard a representative m Con gress from the Southern States, declare, that ho believed the tariff of 1832 to he unjust, uncon stitutional and oppressive, to the people of the south, and yet, that he would vote for an act to enforce it upon South Carolina at the point of the bayonet; thus, though sworn to “support the Constitution of the U. States,” becoming an avowed accomplice in its violation, and com mitting the citizens ot a sister state to the ten der mercies of a military invasion, for no other offence than yielding obedience to the sovereign power to which they owed allegiance, when that power was interposed, by his own admission, to rescue those citizens trom the oppressive operation of an unjust and unconstitutional act of Congress ! To such monstrous and revolt ing consequences, disguise it as we may, arc we necessarily led by the doctrine which denies the right of State-interposition, and affirms that the will of the majority is supreme in all cases. A more impotent contrivance, a more delusive mockery, cannot be conceived, than a written Federal Constitution, if the functionaries ot the government,created by that Constitution, have the exclusive right of fixing the limits of their Own power. All will agree, in terms, that the Federal government is a government ot specific powers and limited authority ; and yet, 1 defy any man to draw a practical discrimination be tween “ a government without limitation ot powers,” and a government which is the exclu sive and final judge of the extent of its own au thority. It is admitted by almost every south ern politician, that the Federal government is the mere creature of the sovereign states of the confederacy, and yet many of them reason a bout it as if it were a consolidated government, and draw all their analogies from governments of that kind. Even in such governments, ex tending ovor a small territory and embracing a population of homogeneous interests, it has been the great object of law-givers, in all ages, so to organize and distribute political power, as that no one class or combination of classes, con stituting a majority of the state, should have the power of oppressing the minority. And to this end, all free governments have been so consti tuted, that each of the great rival interests ot the Btate should be able to protect itself against the injustice and oppression of the rest, by some, reserved power similar to nullification. But a government, embracing within its scope the ter ritories and |>eople of twenty-four distinct sove reign States, of various climates, productions, mid pursuits, and having interests directly op posed to each other, almost to the extent of their annual income, which are liable to he vitally affected by the legislation of that government, would be the most intolerable of all tyrannies, if the separated ooTcfoigiio had flip right* ful power ot protecting the separate interests of the confederacy. That they have that power, I have briefly attempted to show from the very nature and origin of our federal system, and shall how pßffcfeed id CbrifirM Uiy ffcfisbfiing by mithoridfei dll jSfStSSS ki now 2 otef* Ifldljfctefitly tnh ptdfctffcfc tit sSUit fflfiy bbH t'Hii tUinilf SbiskMsA k? fta ktismtt hf hmtiii m frli* m m hiM ssrnm fimt mmusnify Amu sy fit ilf. mAmwj ufmmtmiksmsMuiimi km mujAmi mmm mmh \h tbs pttbsffl kmk; mjks mim I mm m mmm mis: kmm Iks urn k\m mm si m msm st ms w mmitwit! m imiamA Its Sam emm smmkme; tmhs.m mmm tbs HHHfflflglHF fHSfg fifrfttfWlW* w iMiff- If m™ ms ns f iskhrwmpto mi fall hifp if mwm m i Ms: mmm M tjip Virgmw Iff W “ tft fftsp sf * ith liberate, palpable, and dppgerQus pxerejse p f powers not granted, [by tbe Federal Constitu tion,] it is tbe right and the duty of the States, who are parties to the compact, to interpose for arresting the progress of the evil, and for main tain mg in their respective limits, the authori ties, rights, and liberties appertaining thereto,” be will say—to be sure I believe all this ; but the right of State interposition is a mischievous and dangerous heresy, which I utterly abhor.” If, appealing to the still higher authority of Mr. Jefferson, you ask lum if he believes, in the Words of that great apostle of liberty, that in case of the assumption, by the Federal govern ment, 44 of powers not plainly and intentionally granted by the Constitution, the States have the nifht to Judge, as well of the infraction, as of the mode and measure of redress,” and that “ tlie nullification bv those sovereignties, of the unauthorized act, is the rightful remedy,” lie will say, 44 1 grant you all this; but nullification is nonsense.” Now, I can understand the advocates of a consolidated government, the federalists ot the school of ’9B, when they denounce nullification. But how a man can stand up and say, “ 1 am a republican of the Jefferson school, I believe in the doctrines of the Virginia and Kentucky resolutions, and am in favor of State rights, and a strict construction of the Constitution,” and dfiryv the right of a State in a case of ae k .owledgeo usuip*iin. to judge of the mode and measure of redress, to interpose fur arrest ing the measure of the evil, or in plainer lan gurge, to nullify the unauthorised act, is, I c ‘nlVss, quite beyond my comprehension. What miserable driveling is it to say, “ I am in favor of a strict construction of the Constitution,” and yet deny the existence of the only power that can enforce its limitations? Is it not obvious to every one, that the Constitution, without an organized power of lining energy, to preserve it from violation is mere paper, # or, at most, parch ment; and does any. man suppose, that he can arrest the torrent of usurpation, by holding up that instrument to our oppressors, and prating about a strict construction of it? He well attempt to tie down a giant with a cobweb. I am aware that Mr. Madison in the decrepi tude of his faculties, has given a v.ersion to his report, and the Virginia resolutions, which con vcils the whole proceeding into a solemn farce. It seems, that the whole argument cf that labor ed report was designed to prove nothing more than that a State had a right to change its re presentatives, to petition Congress, to remon strate and protest against its proceedings —only, however, in cases of oppression, where the Con stitution had been clearly violated ! ’ Let Us see how this document will read, when corrected by the recent commentary of its author in case of a deliberate, palpable, and dangerous exercise of powers not granted, it is the right of the States, who are parties to the compact, to interpose for arresting progress ot the evil, by refusing to re-elect their representa tives, by petitioning Congress lor relief, by re monstrating, and even by protesting I! 1 I rom such solemn and pompous premises, was there ever a more 44 1; me and impotent conclusion ? 1 Who would ever have imagined that a volume of reasoning was necessary to prove that a sovereign state had a right to pray and protest against an act of the Federal Government; and who moreover, would have imagined that this right was limited to eases of dangerous and pal pable violation of the Constitution, when every school bov knows that the humblest citizen has the most unlimited and unqualified right to pe tition and protest, without cause, and whether the Constitution has been violated or not? 1 know of nothing that can be compared with the ridiculous incongruity of this solemn and empty bravado, except a similar denunciation pronounced some years ago in the Legislature of South Carolina, by n gentleman who is now, as might he expected, a loyal member of the Union party. It was immediately after the pas sage of the tariff of 1828, w hen carried away by the contagion of the general indignation which pervaded the whole south, the orator rose and said : 44 Mr. Speaker, whatever others may do, I never will submit to this most unrighteous act of intolerable oppression. lam in favor ot re sistance, bold and manly resistance at all ha zards. 1 would use every weapon, and exhaust every means of uncompromising warfare, and finally in the last extremity of desperate valor, when all other resources failed, I would protest!” It is just as absurd to suppose, when the Virgi nia Legislature spoke of the right of the states to arrest the progress of the evil, and maintain their liberties within their respective limits, in extreme cases of unconstitutional oppression, that they did not mean nullification, in some form, as that Mr. Jefferson did not mean the same thing, when lie said, 44 nullification is the rightful remedy.” If Mr. Madison really meant, when lie wrote lus report, what he now affirms, he certainly made a different impression upon the Virginia Legislature, and upon the whole country. They doubtless thought lie meant something ; but it spurns th„t all liis profound argument to estab lish the federal tfttgttt fit the p&ttlimfttt; tttm the sovereign rights of the states, was an empty flourish, arid literally meant nothing. And I think South Carolina might well say to him, as Ldfd Lhffffiartl said th a ttterttber of the British PtttltiUUbUif 6fi a siUditH fitosstafi, 44 Sir. uhefi ydU MUH tibiinti g, yfifi W/dltf Ad itib a ffiWM if Mifig r ititfittssttmw# Iks t mm nsmuumi uuA mi: mAmn immfii hm mlmmmiumf turn Mm tmm Ms smi tt uuMMm sea mim urn*: , . , , mwimmfa mrntsA m ft*. ftf mmm tM ik mmm smimuss si ms Mm\ tesmmuh umk mayms m t iks hmn si mssmfhm smmm mi i ins mu nnA mum si Iks mmn mss j mm ms mil si ms Msimimi fw mmm wmsni si ms msm&n m m sm msmkls mm sf ssistsm Iks wtnltmM m fmmim m mmm fks mml (kmmsntfm mmmnjff wwmfi WtmHt miMm sf If H should be why keep up the discussion ol these principles now, when the adjustment of the tatiff has removed all grounds of compimot and apprehensiou, I answer, by asking, why did Congress pass a bill clothing the President with dictatorial pow ers, and creating a military despotism, when it was apparent to every one, that South Carolina would acquiesce in the ar rangement of the tariff, and that no pretext ex isted for creating such extraordinary powers / Why was the statute hook tarnished by this bloody record of vindictive despotism ? Why was the olive branch of peace accompanied by the sword of a military executioner ? The answer is hut too obvious. It was de signed to establish a precedent, fatal to the sovereignty of the states, and to the rights and liberties of the south. It was designed to forge a thunderbolt, to be laid up ready for future use, whenever the mock Jupiter who has been raised up, on the ruins of the Constitution, may think proper to hurl it. Availing themselves of an extraordinary conjecture, and of the reckless and vindictive passions of a popular and super annuated President, the friends of au unlimited, consolidated government, the old federalists and the new, boldly resolved to have their prin ciples embodied in the statute book, even if they should be inscribed in blood. Improving upon the example of that infatuated ministry, who, when they repealed the duty oil tea, re tained the preamble of the act imposing it, de claring the unlimited power of Parliament to tax the Colonics, our “very worthy ami ap proved good masters,” have subverted the whole constitutional frame of our Government, so far as an act of Congress could effect it. By this bill of bloody usurpation, the sovereignties of the states are utterly blotted out—like so many brilliant stars struck from the firmament of free dom, leaving one dark and gloomy night of cheerless and hopeless despotism. s ’ •: tb ‘HbHb ’ -‘ < ‘ ’ : m 1 lined to he a Sion tor g ef|j one of the forms 9 h dik: to !■> a ■ M m most ‘ perceive tin* ihre;™ ing#tsis; much vre hdve passed, in which this dean enactmen. wilfrise upin bloody resurrection, reanimated by the fiendish spirit of a blind and heartless fanaticism, carrying terroi and death, and worse than (fieath, into our domestic sanctuaries, and our Ifrusehold altars. While this act remains upodthe statute book, there can be no security for rights and liberties of the southern statis. It is a formal declaration, that the states shal be henceforth shorn ot their sovereignty, anffreduced to the condition ot vassal provin ces. while the limitations ot the powers ot ,the Fesieral Government are to be prescribed, not as*ieretofore claimed, by the Supreme Court, bu marked out by the sword of a military dic tat>r. W hat, then, is the duty of every citizen oti.he southern states, who feels the sacred ob ligation of transmitting unimpaired to his chil dien, the precious inheritance of freedom, which his ancestors purchased with their blood. If these were the last words 1 liad to utter, 1 would say to my fellow citizens of the south, 44 be prepared to defend your liberties in every form, and at every hazard, and as soldiers of constitution!] liberty, sleep on your arms . Melancholy experience has taught us, the impo tence of all parchment securities for our rights, and w>e have found that that is true, now and here, which has been true in all ages and coun tries, that no people can long preserve their li berties, who have not the spirit, and who are not prepared, to defend them in every torm in which they may be assailed. It is high tnr.e that the southern States should awaken from their slumber of false security, and offering up every selfish feeling, and dis tracting jealousy, on the altar of patriotism, pre pare for a united struggle for constitutional lib erty. Already have our adversaries drawn their lines around the citadel, and commenced their approaches according to the most approv ed system of attack ; and God only know r s how long it-rnay be before they will open their tren ches and commence their cannonade. Under these circumstances, l do sincerely believe that a speedy union of the planting States, in pre cautionary measures for the protection ot their peculiarrigilts, is the only means of saving our posterity from the most awful and afflicting destiny. But* gentlemen, I have already exhausted myself, and I am sure I must have exhausted your I will, therefore, bring my re marks to a conclusion, by offering you a senti ment which coines from the bottom of my heart: Georgia and South Carolina. —lnseparably united m their interests, may they be as insep arably united in their councils, and their des tinies.

He has neglected no op portunity of studying the wants of his people; and, in proof that he considered himself above his subjects only in virtue of his office, he al lowed the heir to the throne to carry a muskef in the National Guards, and perform all the du ties of a private, regardless of his birth and of the near relationship to the sovereign. Louis Philippe, does not, it is true, make a parade of his condecensiori, as Napoleon did, in receiv ing petitions from the hands of his subjects, which are destined never to be answered, but lie enquires into their condition, and relieves those who ar.e necessitous. In his personal ex penditures he is economical, toAjlegrec which led to a belief that he is parsimonious ; but the enormous sums which lie has distributed among the manufacturers ought to cause his economy to be regarded as a virtue. Leopold, Ring of Belgium, is the next sove reign on the list of those who aim at popularity: asd it cannot be denied that he does so worthily. On coming to the throne of Belgium, he se lected for his immediate attendants and the of ficers .of his household, those Belgians who ap pejuxid to stand in most esteem with their fel low countrymen, preferring to give handsome pensions from his own purse to those who had faithfully served him, to giving grounds for dis satisfaction by the employment of any other than natives. On being soheired by one of his former confidential attendants to bestow upon Imp a vacant place in his household at Brus sels, he said, that merit with him would al ways meet with attention, and that no man could be more meritorious than the candidate in question ; but that like tbe King of England, he made it a rule not to employ foreigners, if Constitutional Charter, Nt it V ,h mildness and dis "tvTco.ne next to the Emperor of Austria and Imre •we tread on dangerous ground, for it is very difficult to remove the prejudice which a Yee people, like the English, cnterta.n against despotic sovereign* We shall not, however, speak of the Emperor of Austria, otherwise than ns regards his relations with lus own sub jects- Our subject is not to show that -he is ust such a King as the English would choose for themselves, but that he is a sovereign u t.o is anxious to promote the happiness and obtain the esteem of Ins own people. We believe that ail who know this sovereign will admit, that he is an amiable man. His character has rather a melancholy turn, but he is not morose nor pas sionate. His affection for his grandson, Napo poleon, considering the injuries which he had received from the father, proved that he did not allo>v political prejudices to interfere with the feelings of nature. In his personal habits, the Emperor of Austria is unostentatious. The writer of these remarks has seen him repeatedly walking in front of his palace, and conversing with persons, casually passing by, with the same freedom as he would have shown to one of his own family. Although from the nature of his connexion with the King of Prussia and the Emperor Nicholas, the Emperor of Austria is compelled to adopt much ol their policy a3 re gards Poland ; it is well known that he is per sonally anxious for the regeneration of that un happy country. 44 If,” said he, not many months ago, to an English gentleman who had an audience ot the Emperor at Vienna, “ I could be sure that the Poles would establish a constitution which should compel the aristocra cy to respect the rights of the people, so far as regards their comfort and the security of their property, I should be glad to see the treaty of Vienna enforced ; find I would cheerfully sur render that portion of the Polish territory which had fallen to my share. I question, however, whether what the Poles call freedom, would convey any advantages except to their aristocra cy. The Poles, as a people, are, I fear, better off in their state of subjection to foreign powers, than they would he if their national independ ence were to he recognized/* Such, we are assured, are the sentiments of the Austrian Em peror respecting the Poles. Whether lie really thinks the establishment of a free constitution impracticable in # Poland, we do not attempt to decide ; hut we believe that it one were estab lished, he would cheerfully emancipate the Poles under his domination. Os the King of Prussia we will briefly say, that he is regarded with great affection by all his subjects who have access to him ; and as the nation at lapge expresses a desire for the pro longation or fits existence, ire cannot i.o hoJ sovereign. He is mild in his demeanor, and hu mane in all the acts of his government as re gards his own subjects ; hut, we regret to say, that until lately, he has treated the Poles with as little humanity as the Ernperorof Russialias iStie.

Affable and condescending to an excess, and li beral in rewarding military and naval services of a distinguished kind, and generous to those who appear to possess personal attachment to him, it is not surprising that he. is beloved by an immense number of persons. As regards lijs conduct to the Poles, we regret to say that his persecution of that unhappy country is popular with almost all classes of the Russians, it is but fair, however, to the Emperor to say, that he has frequently shown great repugnance to signing the ukase against Poland, which have been sub mitted to him by his Ministers. Lord Durham, who had good opportunities of studying the character of the Russian Emperor, speaks of him with respect, although he was disgusted with the system of policy of winch he is the head. None hut persons ignorant of the state of public opinion in Russia would, indeed, speak of the Emperor Nicholas as an unpopular sovereign. Business of New York.—* lt has been stated, and we believe it, that there never has been a month of August in any year, where so much business has been transacted as the month just passed. The city is full of strangers from all parts of this country and Europe; so much so, that it is difficult to procure lodgings. Cue ho tel had, during the period named, no less than 1765 entries ol boarders on its register, making 54 per day on the average.— AT. Y.

The house is a handsome stone budding near tho public offices, w ith an lonic portico. We were ushered into a large and pleasant apartment, with plain furniture and lofty ceiling, the w in dows of which command a view of the beauti ful valley of the Potomac, where we found the President. On being introduced to him, he shook me heartily by the hand, as did his friend and private secretary, Major Donelson, who was the only person in the room with him when we arrived.’ After a conversation of perhaps three quarters or hall an hour, i took my leave. I had read in the National Journal a long his tory of innumerable forms and ceremc ues to be undergone by persons paying their respects to the head of the government, but found it was all a joke of the opposition. One attendant only was 44 in waiting,” an agile little Irish lad, with a light summer jacket on, who appeared to me the very antipodes of ceremony and pa rade. I compared this active and'useful ser vant, in my mind’s eye, with the host of lac ques and bedchamber gentlemen I had seen sur* rounding the persons and devouring the reve nues of European princes, aiul the odds were greatly m favor of that simple yet efficient sys tem, which, disdaining the costly foppery and useless trappings of state, prefers placing confi dence in the virtue and intelligence of a free people. The countenance and person of the President are such, as once seen, will not soon he forgotten-: his tall erect figure and singular ly original phisiognomy allows of no mistake as to the individual. His looks are far more manly, commanding and open than the. portraits in the print-shops would indicate, and his eyes seem to betray a disposition ardent and passionate, but never sullen or petulent. Ilis forhead is very high, and the lines thereon deeply indent ed; his complexion dark and sun-burnt, aid his visage that of a war-worn veteran. I was impressed with his contemplative thoughtful and strongly-marked features ; well do they correspond with the eventful tale of his adventurous life. II is exterior appear ance is remarkably plain: he wears a black dress, without any badge indicative of his rank and office, yet are his person and demeanor well Calculated to ffispire a stranger with a sentiment beyohd mere respect. ftwlwet, Ifefe UUvfefesL bate withdrawn frofti the tit iiikmft JUS kUIWIiUSSMSIIf HitUib Hi ii\S AilgliM itbttn ust; itnii His tmm ttstiWttsti m “ ihs uimM wg pfsms si iMs asm m (hs usssMb ft mm mrnwu ijm mmm dswiwii ft tew wffwte; smmusd mb mi jte/waft & fsuiwii w urns iimsi muld urn: , hi mmmmm sham rMh Mm** jwrirfHrtfHHHj tf'fetfpwl awl his kiimiir hs mm umtm mm #t tew ur hi§ mm: m nm; mmiih tiimwii m miim ism Fmmmjfi km mi iii wy fit m prsfv m ns if is ms w km mh tm m forms' n mm# hjtnfsg m/’wtl wmiimi HiiH iisHhsF'W'Htfßiwfoir m sf RHfiftf I s IIS ipcljpgd iq objects pt polttical ad* A uqfsictim and uji author, to ho independent and contented in both relations, is a pleasant object tor contemplation.

Ot his politics he says, though “ a lover of| strong government,” he is not a Tory—a lover of “ the people” he is not a Radical—in favor ot “ a rational compromise between the past and present,” he is not a Whig. It isfortuuate that with these views of all parties, he has no political ambition, for certain it is that the pub lic man has little prospect of advancement, who dissents from all the prevailing codes of party opinion, and thus rejects the principle of asso ciation by which alone any principles are'(main tained, and the laudable “ ambition” of thosj who support them, gratified. Mr. Bulwer explains'that In? novels have been written as illustrative of the effects of the social system of England, of which this, his last work, is an effort to trace the causes—a of 44 key and glossary to the tendencies and moral ot those which have preceded it.” H<? adds, that if he undertakes fiction it will probably he with 4i anew scries,” and ’ iit a 44 wider range of imagination,” Mr. Bulwer’s eminent talents and popularity as an author, makes this mtice of his individual concerns and designs tntwesting to readers orally.— Balt, Amcr. \th*nst, A line of stages, own a company of YaH kees, is now running Mexico and VeM (’rn7..
