Charleston, Sept. 16
Gentlemen*.—I have the honor to acknowl
edge your polite invitation cf the 16tb ult
to a dinner in Columbia, to be given on the
20th inst. The avowed and liberal purpose of
the meting, is "with a view lo discus sion, and
more thorough understanding of the important
political topics which engage the attention of
the people of this State,” and of exchanging
opinions with citizens from any other part of
the State, who may favor you with their at
tendance.
I must apologize for not making an early a.c
knowledgement, of your favor; by informing
you that thus invited and encouraged, I imme
diately wrote a private letter to my friend, the
Chairman of your Committee, to enquire if he
thought I could promise myself a patient hear
ing. while defending certain proposition
which I detailed to him, and which constitute
my honest views qt honest errors, on the
greatest topic which at present divides us.
I have waited for an answer, until 1 could
wait no longer, without committing the inde
corum, of not answering your invitation iu due
form.
1 regret exceedingly, gentlemen, that I am
Bow constrained to decline the honor intended
me by your invitation; I say emphatically,
"the honor,” because with the views express
ed id your invitation, it is impossible that your
meeting can assume the character of one of
those, in which men have so often recently,
been brought together, to be heated by wine
and declamation, and surprised into intempe
rate toasts and sentiments. I would as soon
be privy to intoxicating a Jury, that sat upon
aease of life |and death, as be a partaker of a
feast of the latter character.
Believing that the invitation was intended
lo elicit my opinion on the great topics which
are to affect the approaching election, I have
no difficulty, gentlemen, in expressing them in
a brief and general manned,-
I am altogether opposed to the doctrines of
Nullification, (to use a barbarous and novel
term, for the want of a mote direct mode of
expressing an opinion) and, as to a Conven
tion, I think it a most hazardous measure, and
altogether nugatory Unless, we mean to se
cede from the Union, And while 1 believe
that nine tenths of those who favor the meas
ure, are as honest in being disposed to favor
it, as 1 am in m? opposition to H, yet I must-be
permitted to say. that 1 most sincerely fear,
that there are among Os, those who press the
calling of a Convention, for the distinct pur
pose of so embroiling our relations with the
General Government, as to involve the latter
in the dilemma, of either abandoning the reins
ofGovernment altogether or of maintaining it
by force. In the latter case, they flatter them
selves that Ihe States, or some of them, will
take part with us, and thus, in either case, a
dissolution of the Union would ensue. If
there are any such, I trust they are very few in
number and must think them only fit to be
consigned to the care of the Regent of the
Lunatic Hospital.
Th**re cannot be a possible case imagined,
i> which «e should be e* r en countenanced by
a single State, at present
1 am aware, that in the slang of the day,
those who think as I do, are reproached with
the epithet of Submission Men: and the iippu-
tat k d of fear; but it is equally unjust and un
reasonable in those who qlaim for themselves
the attributes of Patriotism, integrity, and in
dependent minds to refase the same to others.
Nor are there wanting men in oar ranks who
have some pretentions to character and talents.
Our fear, is the fear of God, and of disgrace,
aud of public calamity; our submission, sub
ipission to our oiro consciences.
I will conclude gentlemen, by tendering the
following toast, with profound respect to the
Meeting.
"Thegenerous feelings of my Countrymen—
Elevation of character is conspicuous in its
most irregular movements May it never be
misdirected by false reasoning, false calcula
lions, false pride or false men."
With the highest respect, I have the pleas
tire to subscribe myself, gentlemen,
Your very homblc servant.
WILLIAM JOHNS&j^
But, fellow citizens, if the project of stop
ping the law succeeds, 1 care not by what
means it is effected, It becomes us to enquire
what will be the consequence? What, think
you, will the government of the Union be do
ing ail this time? Is it to stand silently by
and see its laws thus trampled under foot by a
single State! And do you believe it will tame*
ly submit to it? If we stop the payment cf
taxes in this State, they stop iu all other States,
and the Government would be a bankrupt in
six months. What is the consequence? Our
Navy, that defended us so gallantly, must be
dismantled: our little Army disbanded, the Na
tional debt remains unpaid, nor is there cash
to meet the requisitions ol the Civil List.—All
this must inevitably follow, or the Government
must resort to direct taxes and bring back the
days of old John Adams. Tax Collectors ail o*
ver the country, visiiir.g you every two or
three months; your stilja taxed, your windows
taxed, your waggons taxed your horses amt
oxen taxed, your land and negroes taxed and
even your heads taxed. And all this must
happen, if the Nullifiers succeed iu getting en
tirely clear of the tax on goods.
Bat a question of fearful responsibility rests
on their heads, in relation to the experiment -
We are nor to suppose that the Government
will bs driven from i»s position by the menaces
of a single state; and if we proceed in the rash
experiment it will come lo a contest of force -
He has read the lessjnsof History to little pur
pose, who does not know, that when a com
munity is excited, the smallest thing in the
world produces Revolution; and when on£»*
started no human sagacity or strength can con
tvol it. Like a mighty torrent, it sweeps every
thing before it. and not unfrequentfy the very
m n who were mainly instrumental at setting it
agoing, fall the first victims to its ravages
'fhat shedding 6f blood is anticipated by the
leaders of Nullification, is perfectly evident
from their published speeches, and there ap
pears to be not a feW, that look on disunion
with indifference.
The most of you, Fellow Cdizenj, know
how this controversey has been carri d on —
Five or six Lawyears, (several of whom are
volunteers) have quitted their offices, and
traversed the District in every direction, pro
nouncing phiiipics against the Government oi
their own Country; and. as far as the powers
of their intellects enabled them, have eudeav-
ored to destroy all confidence in its opera
lions. That Government, the corner stone of
which has been cemented with the blood ol
our ancestors, has been rudely assailed by
parricidal hands, for the apparent purpose ol
tumbling it in ruins. It has been publicly de
nied that we are represented m Congress
at all, or that the representation is ol
such character, as to m<<ke it a mockery.——
We are said to be in Colloniai bondage, aod
are called on continually to resist the laws .
and men who are candidates before you, as
sert, that they would prefer the British Gov
eri.ment to our present condition! Every ar
gument urged, and every parallel run, go to
shew that we ought to resort to Revolution ;
and all are cowards and tories who refuse to
go for this psateful remedy The plan is or
ganized throughout the State; extensive cor
respondence is kept up, and thousands of
speeches and pampnlets against the Govern
meat, have been published and sent gratuitous
ly to every man fuat would read them. Noi
content with this, frauds are practiced am?
hand-bills, under the bead of “Taxer, Taxes,"
are distributed by thousands over the District,
in order to shew how much the Tariffites of the
North impose upon you. A regard to truth
compels me to expose this deception; and I
now tell you, that the great mass of Taxes put
down in that paper, were laid on us, not by th
votes of the North, but by ourow,. delegation
in-Congress, in the year 1816 We were th*
masters then, and we imposed the taxes on
them; and now. when it suits ear politicians to
excite your passions, these very old taxes ol
1316, laid by our own members, are taken into
the account and charged to the people of the
the Chair.

Steam Boat Disaster.—W e are indebted to
the Editors of the Buffalo Journal, for the fol
lowing letter: -
Office of the Buffalo Journal, J
Sept. 16 4 o’clock, f.h J
Sir—A terrible disaster occurred here this
morning the particulars of which, so far as we
have been able to learn them, are detailed be
low.
The steam boat Wm. Peacock left this port
at 9 o’clock this morning, for Detroit, and
when about four mites outside the light-house,
a joint in ihe pipe which conveys steam from
the boilers to the cylinder, gave wav, which
instantly discharged the whole head of steam
into a steerage cabin, which is upon the deck
The apartment was thronged with passengers,
mostly women and children, and the scene
which ensued is not to be described.
As the boat had just b ft port, the names of
the passengers, generally, were not entered,
and no perlect li^t of the stiff rers, therefore,*
cm at this lime be made. The following per
sons, with their families, are among the suffp
rers. viz.
Mr. Isaac Palmer, of Dover, Windham co.
Vermont, four children scalded; two are alrea
dy dead—the third dangerous, and the fourth
slightly injured.
Mr William Johnson, oflhc same place, one
child dead—wife and one child dangerous.
Mr, J-hn Parker, of York. Livingston conn
tv, N York three children dangerously scald
ed. .
Mr. E. D.iirtz, a Swiss emigrant, wife and
'laughter dangerous, hfoisnH not dangerous.
Tins is all w > can learn of names, ^c. with
certainty, though the disaster is known to he
,nore extensive. Two infant children were
found, dead, that have mot yet b-cn recogniz
<>d. nor can their parents be,"found. Several
passengers are confident that one man and-one
woman jumped overboard, the little sufferers
were hers.
We have delayed writing until the mail is
about to be closed, that we might collect as
many particulars as possible, well knowing the
anxiety that would be felt'by friends and the
great uncertainty that usually attaches to fly
ing rumors of a disaster tike ft>is

Another letter, received by a gentleman in
this village, states that at 11 o’clock, ten were
ascertained to be dead and missing.
The noise of the steam drowned the cries of
the sufferers, so that a» firs’ it was thought that
no injury was sustained The boat was full ol
passenger . and it is wonderful that so feiv
were ir jured.

^*‘A corvette and frigate of the United States
of America have anchored near our Admiral s
ship. It is reported that they came to be in
formed if it is true that the French wish to at
tack Tripoli, where their Consul has been in
sulted as well as ours. We are assured that
if such should be the intention, their squadron
which is at Mahon, will combine their efforts
with the vessels under M dc Rosamel Ne
vertheless; the French have been displeased
with the conduct of the Commanders of these
American ships. They gave no salute, and,
without communicating with the Admiral, thev
despatched their boat on shore. The Ailmi
r;-.l was obliged to send very quickly alter
them a boat, to prevent them from disembark
ing, and to refuse an entry to the port.
“What more increases the unpleasant feel
ings of our Etat Major, is the circumstance of
the American frigate being the Java, the crew
of which bad last year, at Mahon, a quarrel,
in which M. Meynard, an officer of the French
brig Faune, was killed.’'

Fellow-Cilizen9» The question before us
is of no ordinary importance, it is pregnant
with events of the most portentous character;
and as we act judiciou-ly or otherwise, we are
to have peace or civil commotion. Our
neighboring States, as deeply interested and
aggrieved by the Tariff as we are, are looking
on our commotion and mew-light doctrines,
with amazement or what is worse, with cold
unmingled contempt, and disavow all connex
ion with us in Hie matter. The doctrine has
produced dissension and distraction in the bo
som of our own community, and has placed us
in a station-that requires only a spark to light
the blaze of Revolution In this country un
der the most favorable circumstances we are
making perhaps the last experiment in favor
of free institutions; and if it fails here the cry
may be all hail to king and despotism! for the
