He promptly assents to the assertion, that
THIS IS Till-: GREAT ISSUE; he meets
it, and sustains his side of the question, by read
ing the grant of power, which we have quoted
from the constitution. We venture to affirm,
that ninety-nine out of every hundred impartial
men who hear the discussion, will decide 'l'IIIS
GREAT ISSUE in favor of the abolitionist;
that they will believe that the objections of the
South against the proposed interference, are
unfounded and arbitrary; and that on leaving
that meeting, they will bo converts to aboli
tionism.
A meeting is called in another northern town,
in which the minds of the people are, in like
manner, unbiassed. When they assemble,
the same proposition, -prefaced by the same re
marks, is submitted to them. In this assembly
also, is a southerner, anxious to defeat the in
sidious proposition. lie admits, that congress
may have the constitutional power to perform
this act; but he reminds the people, that at the
formation of the federal constitution, their la
thers recognized slavery, as existing at the
South; and solemnly agreed, that it should be the
-basis of a portion of the political power of the
■southern States; and that the measure propos
• d bv the abolitionist, although in it* terms limit-
*ed to the Dust riot of Columbia, yet in its conse
quences, would be felt throughout those Stales;
that it was therefore an attempt again to open
those questions, and to unsettle all the rights of
the South. Ifeadm wishes thorn, not to be guil
ty of this breach of faith. He reminds them,
that the slaves of the district, if emancipated,
will be a crew of indolent paupers, turned
loose, to prey on society. He explains to them,
that the emancipation of the slaves in the Dis
trict of Columbia, effected by the votes of a
northern party, would excite in the breasts of
the slaves in the southern Mates, the hope of a
similar interference in their behalf, and would
inspire them with n discontented, restless, in
suirectionary temper; while it would make the
masters jealous, suspicious, and severe in their
discipline; and that for these reasons, ii was
certain that the proposed interference would he
injurious to the colour d population of the South.
He shows, that it may produce servile insurrec
tion, always a source of deep affliction and hor
ror to the free population; and of terrible retri
bution on the guilty, or suspected slaves. He
declares, that the South will be implacably ex-
asperated against the North, by the unprovoked,
unmeasured, and immeasurable injury; and he
avows his belief, that in order to defend them-
selves against such faithless and dangerous as-
sociates, the southern states will combine to
break up the Federal Union. To such repre
sentations, what reply can the abolitionist make?
lie is struck dumb. Detected, convicted, ex
posed, as an enemy alike to the white and the
Hack race, as an insidious plotter against tue
peace of his country, and that glorious Union,
which sheds its ample blessings on all, he es
capes with difficulty, sinking nem ath the scorn
and detestation of a people whom he had at
tempted to delude.—In this town, abolitionism
is effectually suppressed.
The sentiments which we have expressed,
are those entertained by Mr. Van Buren.—
Because lie cansee.no force in an unfounded
constitutional objection; and because lie has de-
termined to defend the rights of the South on
those great moral and political considerations,
on winch they may be most triumphantly sus
tamed, the nuliifiers denounce him as an enemy
to the South!
To the. Edilor of the Federal Union:
Believing, sir, that, in common with every
man that has a heart expanding beyond the
limits of bis own family, you are not indifferent
to the welfare and mislortuncs of your species,
1 have to request ol y u the insertion, in your
periodical, of the enclosed article, taken from
the Southern Recorder of Tuesday last. I
deem compliance with the suggestion of the
waiter imperative on the physicians of Pulaski
county, as it is not probable that an epidemic,
so rapid in its course and terrible in its issue,
appearing at such a season, will be confuted by
the artificial limits of a county. I will likewise
add, that it might be of great utility were those
medical gentlemen to state, in detailing the treat
ment, the order hi which the remedies have been
usually applied and the extent to which they
have been exhibited, whether the nerves of re
lation at their orgin have been much affected
and the vital beat in the extremities diminished,
ami all the < valence that can be adduced to show
tliat the disease in question is an inflammation
ol the pleura. As the faculty is by law con-
servator o! the public health, and science is in
conffiot with concealment and mystery, I hazard j
nothing in predicting the speedy appearance of formation in your power
an ample and succinct exposition.

from the Soulhern Recorder, of tue 19//t inst.
“BILIOUS PLEURISY.”
The Macon Messenger, of the 14:h instant,
notices the existence of a disease in Hawkins-
ville, arid its vicinity, to which the physicians
apply this term, and which, that paper remarks,
lias carried ofF a considerable number of people,
generally proving iata! in a few hours, and ru
mor adds, that it was of tills ailment that the
Hon. James Poluill died. From these cir
cumstances tiie inference follows, that “Bilious
Pleurisy” is in general incurable, or the reme
dies employed are in general not suitable for the
malady. Whichever may be true, humanity
requires that exertions he continued to arrest
the havoc, and w hen one mode of treatment has
been found unavailing, that another be adopted.
It becomes, therefore, a duty that the physicians
of Hawkinsvil'e and its vicinity owe to the com
munity in which they reside, to the f’Uate in ge
neral, and the faculty in particular, to give,
through the public gazettes, the symptoms and
diagnosis of this “Bilious Pleurisy,” and the
anatomical characters, if post mortem examina
lions have been made, with what they believe
to be the proximate and remote causes, as well
as the particular t reatment, specifying the names
of agents exhibited. Such a publication may
possibly lead to treatment more successful, and
probably remove an impression, existing to some
extent, that the disease is misunderstood bv die
practitioners of Pulaski county, and consequent
ly mismanaged. INQUIRER.

A USEFUL AND ELEGANT ACOM-
PLISHMENT.—We invite the attention of our
fellow-citizens of Milledgeville, to the card of
our old friend, Major Dtk\, who has returned
to spend a few weeks in ihis place. The skil
till use of tiie sword (or stick) is an elegant ac
complishment; and, among the warm tempers
of the South, it is a most useful art. Major
Dtnn is a very superior swordsman, and a
most assiduous and zealous instructor; imparting
to his pupils more practical skill in three weeks,
than is commonly acquired in a course of in
struction of as many months.
^ IRGIXIA.—In this Slate the elections are
progressing with great warmth. So far as
they have proceeded, the democratic party has
gained a little since the last elections. In Al-
bermnrle, the triumph of the friends of the ad
ministration is a •ourec of great gratification.
In this county, two strong whig.leaders, Oil-
ran a.id Southall, have boot: superseded by two
■ah': and distinguished democrats, Rives and
Randolph.
CONNECTICUT.—It is sufficiently ascer
tained that Edwards, the democratic candidate
*' Jr governor, will beat Tomlinson, the whig
candidate, by a majority of about three thou
sand. There are also strong democratic majori
lies m both branches of the legislature. The
administration party is much stronger than it
at the previous election.

The melancholy intelligence, which tins just reached

GENERAL GAINES’ BATTLE.
We are enabled to give soma particulars of the frequent
engagements this gallant officer and his brave army had
with theSeminoles on the ground general Clinch had pre
viously rendered memorable. The parties fought eight
days without intermission. Nothing could surpass the bold
ness of tiie enemy. They would come quite close to the
breastwork, and lire directly into the camp One day, in i tljo Ijior prairie
particular,they approached so close that they set lira to the '
ptequets, and poured tn volley almr volley, under cover of
the smoke. It was estimated that they fired one thousand
rounds, and yet, strange to say, there was not n singic man
in the army killed or even wounded. One part of the sol
diers were engaged in quenching the flames, while another
wvre returning the Indian compliment with interest. One
trait m the savage warfare should be mentioned. Beforo
coming to action they invariably tin- four guns and then give
i he war whoop. Our informant vouches tor the truth of
this stab in nt. From this, it would appear that tiie Indians , .
are not entirely destitute of chivalrous notions. They will, Georgia battalion,
however, never fad to cut o3 stragglers whenever they can
find iliem. 1'keir custom is to give a whoop and then fire
at their victim. An instance is related of three volunteers
