n'DGR CLAYTON S TOASTS.—At a pub
i> dinner o-iven to Philip P. Harbour, at Amherst,
n Virginia, Judge Clayton, being there, oil Ins
t'turn trom the late session of congress, and adver-
<rto the tariff in a public address, made the lol-
• Jin* remark: “ Though, as friends/i( the L il
ian
' should submit, yet we will not relax our ex-
’ ‘ 0.1 " ” And
rtions to rid her of this iniquitous system. And
I , c ioseJ his remarks with tins toast: “ A speedy
repeal <»f the tariff:” .
Vlii'i’, in the progress of the same journey,^ lie
\t , s at Laurens C. H., in S.Carolina, and finds
tinself among t!ie nullitiers, he changes his priu-
s ami in a public address, says, ” 1 advise
"■fification:” and closes this latter address with the
"Vuvin" toast;” The late tariff act. It is now a
ca l-. LIBERTY or SUBMISSION! He that
^ is a Dastard; he that doubts, is damned!”
1 ' j, Yiririnia, he says, we ouirlit to submit to the
: nv< mid be only desires its speedy repeal. In S.
r inliiia he says, that submission to tlie law, is a
i ,”s of liberty, and that he who docs not resist iinrnc-
ratelv, is a coward.
Vrrived at Alliens, in Georgia, at a meeting of
, j7.pn?, lie introduces, among others, a resolution.
; n the following words, viz.
,jf. n therrfure resolved, That wc as Ace citizens of Geor-
„ plU }! oi loner submit to die syst<m cf Iog;s!at;on
is arbitrary, unequal, unconstitutional, ami liiero
f'.rc'ur.jast—dial it by recommended to our fellow eiti-

Ami here, if we are correctly informed, he denies
ihal lie is a miHifier.
In what different dress and attitude, shall we next
behold this political fortune-hunter? These sudden
changes hetrav a reckless and dire profligacy of
r in meter, a readiness to make nnv and every sac
rifice of principle and patriotism, to advance his
j ‘rsor.al popularity

^——s. Good morning Mr. G v, what is

p y. Why nothing verv strange I believe,

'it us.
L. What do you mean r Has Congress again
xicreased tl«e taxes on the people ?
G. Certainly they have. Did you not road

which lie informs the people of this State, hew ter-
"iltlv Ihev are oppressed hv the tariff? I thought
'e had sent his speech to every body, so as to in-
■ tnict them lmw they arc oppressed.
L. I have been of the opinion all tiiis time, that
Me lull which thev have hem discussing in Con-
Igross, contemplated a reduction of thr taxes.
G. W gij n jj j know about it. is yatliered from
l.ludg- C'nvion’s speech, ft is true, on ihe hack of
I he little l„>ok which he sent me. are printed the
I following words: “Speech of Mr. Clavton of

Ittuties op imports, delivered in the House of Rep
resentatives June 10th. 1832. Washington; Print-
j'd hv Dt.f? (Y r0Pn _” Rut from the tenor of Mr.
|Uavton’s remarks, I am inclined to think, that the
, ' vr ' s toincrease the duties on imports, instead
|ul reducing them.
L. No mv friend, you are mistaken. The ob
ject of the bill, which elicited the remarks of ?tfr.
Mivton. contained in his spece.li to which you al-
,!'ne, was to reduce, the tariff from six', to ten rnil-
• ons of dollars.
Is it possible!! Well I really thought the
“•Meet of ihp bill was to increase the taxes, from
|v C p 0,,rsf ‘ ^ r - Clavton pursued, hut did you know

pang i nto consideration, that I make ns much

pi'e hetfp r _ nn ,] are less barrassed by Lawyers and
Pnpriffsq than when col ton was thirty cents. No
Pl v complains about oppression, hut nttllifiers,
Lp ^ice seekers. Sts far as my business and in-
r f rP8ts a f p concerned, I feel as competent to iudge
i ] *. °PP re ssie>n which I experience as Judge
a - *°o. or judge any body else.
G. I must confess myself, that I have never
experienced this oppression, which the folks talk
so much about lately ; hut our Congress men say
we are suffering, I reckon it must be so.
L. 8eit interest, you must recollect, controuis
the actions of all men. Some members of Con
gress, doubtful of their re-election, think it will have
a wonderful effect upon their constituents, to make
one or two setspeeeches about oppress! n, thereby
to induce us, who manage the plough handles, to
believe, that unless we vote for them to go to Con
gress again, olir planting interest will i e utterly
ruined. W fiat tools. You and I would much
sooner depend upon half a dozen good plough han
dle fellows than a regiment of Congressmen, to
save us from oppression. Beside you remember,
how these same congressmen, used to speechify
about the Indian lands, until Lumpkin was elected
Governor, now they have jumped up oppression,
and are pursuing its track, with rather s cold scent
it is true, hut with equally as much noise. I think
however, it will puzzle them to find the “ varmint”
in Georgia, as we have never seen his track, nor
heard his grunt in ’his section of the country.—
Those who are disposed to leave their own business
and join in the hunt after the creature, can do so,
hut as for myself, I shall put sue my own course,
have my own opinions, about matters and things,
witiiout sv allowing every tiling which Congress
men say in relation to my affairs.
G. W ell, I am pretty much your way of think
ing; but do you undeistand what Judge Clayton
means in his speech, where he says, that “ thirty
thousand dollars in twoyears, have been scaled up,
ns with a sponge within a certain circumference
from his neighbors r” x
L. His meaning, is not exactly understood, un
less he intends to convey the idea, that he has
fleeced his hottest unsuspecting neighbours, out of
that amount,in two years by his superior skill and
management in his business transactions, united
with the operations of his manufacturing estab
lishment.
G. Well, to he sure Judge Clayton will pay
hack again to his neighbours the whole amount,
which he has “ span ye;/” out of them by “ this
system of legalized robbery” as he styles it in his
speech, or they will consider the partaker as Lad as
the thief. Are you certain Judge Clayton is a
manufacturer ?
L Yes, it is certain that Judge Clayton is
deeply interested in a manufacturing establishment,
situated in the vicinity of Athens. This fact, to'
my mind satisfactorily accounts for the extreme
virulence of his speech, lest the people should sus
pect, that ihe vote which lie gave against the re
duction of the tariff, might be attributed to inter
ested motives. As to his paying his neighbours
back the thirty thousand dollars which he lias
“ sponged” out of them, I cannot vouch. If lie
does not do so, I should supjtose ihe oppressive
“ vaiminf' about which lie talks so much in his
speech, might he hunted with complete success,
in his own neighborhood.
G. Judge Clayton voted against the hill for the
reduction of the tariff!! Well, well. After try
ing his very best, to make us believe in his speech,
that we are oppressed by the tariff, then to vote
against the reduction of the duties. If this is his
consistency I will vole against him, at the next
election, for we all know a half a loaf is heller than
no bread. But before we separate, pray tell me
'.vital Judge Clayton wished us to understand by
that word “Nullification” and the words “ will I
snatch thus torch of the Revolution, and snuff it,
and flash it in your faces” in his speech? And why
did beget Dull Gtecn to print iris speech ?
L. As to what Judge Clayton actually meant,
in using ihe words t«» which you allude, it is im
possible for me to know; but 1 strong!v- roo r «»< r
that he has become a convert to the South Caroli
na doctrine of Nullification, and his intercourse
with Duff Green, the “ Ciiief Scribe” of Nullifi
cation, affords additional ground of suspicion.—
Being found in company with the nuliifiers, and
ultra farifiltes, in voting against the reduction o!
the tariff, is another strougkuk in the chain of tes
timony against him. It is not at all improbable,
that he has riveted himself with Mr. Calhoun, the
“ High Driest” of nullification and others, for the
purpose of exciting the people of this State, to
adopt rebellious measures against the General Gov
ernment, and to defeat tire re-eiec.Tion, of General
Jackson ; for it is well known, that he cannot be
a nullifier, and a friend to General Jackson, at the
same time. Circumstances are against Judge
Clayton in this particular, hut he is not the only
one inculpated. We practical farmers, have no
use for nuliifiers in, or out of Congress. They
must employ other bait to catch us besides “ op
pression.”
G. Y r es, and if I am correctly informed, as to
the sentiments of the people generally, they will
have to employ other bait, besides nullification, to
be elected again. OBSERA Ell.
NATIONAL ANNIVERSARY.
Fourth of July at .McDonough, Henry county.
Agreeable to previous arrangements a large
number of the citizens of llrnrv county met at
McDonough, on the 4th ult. to celebrate the anni
versary of our national independence.
At day light a National salute was fned, and at
sunrise the inhabitants of the Village genet ally,
assembled at the Court House Or sacred worship.
At eleven o'clock, thf* citizens met in the Metho
dist church, when the Rev. Mr. Gamble addres
sed the Throne of Grace, in a very able and elo-
q eni manner. The Declaration of Independence
was then read by Col. Gibson Clark, fidlowed by
Col. Andrew R. Moore, who read Washington’s
Farewell Address. Both gentlemen in their de
livery did full justice to those unequalled produc
tions.
The Rev. Wm. Griffin then proceeded to the
delivery of a discourse, replete with warmond pat
riotic sentiments, such as a return of this Anniver
sary is calculated to call forth from every patriots
breast. The Reverend gentleman had been as
signed by a portion of the community, ihe duty of
addressing them on this day, on the subject of
Temperance—to that part of his discourse, he did
ample justice, in powerful and eloquent language.
At half past one, a large concourse of persons,
half of whom were Ladies, sat. down to a sumptuous
dinner, prepared for the occasion by our fellow
citizen, Capt. Murray. Mr. Amasa Spencer offi
ciated as President of the day, assisted by Dr. Ja
cob Stokes, Win. Hardin, and Hendley \arner,
Esq’rs. as Vice Presidents. The fare was excel
lent, consisting of substantials and delicaciesof the
first order. Alter dinner the company drank the
following toasts—which, in the total absence of
inebriating liquors, were drank with water from a
superior spring near the dinner table—one o! those
clear and chrystai fountains with which the God of
nature has so bountifully provided this healthy sec
tion of our State.

them all to tremble.
9th. Tite memory of Adams, Jefferson, and
Monroe.

By Col. Clark: Nullification: A term in dis
guise, meaning secession or disunion—when pre
sented in its true character the feelings of every
true American should revolt at it. It ts unknown
to the letter and spirit of the Federal compact.—
To annul a Law of the Union or to arrest its ope
ration requires the action of a ma jority in Con
gress, the decision of the Federal Judiciary, or a
convention of two thirds of the States, and ratifi
ed by three fourths. There is no other mode con

dence without designing it—the other may assume
the same mask for the purpose of destruction.
By Mr. J. Mooring: Slate riglits and Southern

By Col. Clark: Nullification; a doctrine public- j
ly disclaimed by Madison and never intended by
Jefferson in the sense applied by its present advo
cates. It is an extra constitutional remedy, a dis
organizing project. In a regularly constituted
