CORUIX-TION.—Wc regret that in our
Init-f slieteh of tlie debate in Senate, on Mr.
,\bAllisicr's resolutions, we did not understand,
or did not bear a portion of the remarks of Mr.
Iloinl. With pleasure we make the following
cm icctions, as suggesied by him.
lusiead of saving, “if tlie opinions tint have
li.cn expressed,” Ac., read, “if to contend that
1 lie States have no right within themselves to
resist encroachments of tlie general govern-
meat, are the opinions of the Union party, I
wish in he saved from joining that body.”
He. did not admit that the general assembly
lias the right to instruct our delegation, hut
\pressed his opinion, that such instruction
would he an assumption of power, inasmtieh as
llit: people are the only arbiters, and they had
hv a respectable majority decided in favor of
II. L. White: that there was a small majority
of Von Huron men in the senate, and if they
should direct our representatives to vote for
Van Huron, such instructions would swerve
liiein from the instructions of their constituents,
which would he inconsistent with the doctrines of
republicanism.
In relation to the charge of abolitionism, he
observed, that General Harrison must have
I a slandered, or a forgery had been com
muted; that he had seen a letter said to have
n written by himself, in which lie expressly
and inuHpiivoca'Iv denied ihe power of congress
to abolish slavery in the District of Columbia;
whereas Van l.uron was equivocal, anil was
fearful to admit that congress did not |K»ssess the
power; all of which he considered to he in ac-
fordnuce with his general character, and it
seemed surprising, that those who a few years
ago looked on him as a most inconsistent politi
cian, now hold him up as the friend of Jackson,
and the honest politician.
THE OPPOSITION TO MR. VAN
I'd KEN.—The combination opposed to
the election of Mr. N an Buren was
f ;luml of heterogeneous and discordant
Jnajeiials. If they had succeeded in
preventing his election, they could not
have li.innonizcd under any one of the
dilii reiil chiefs who appeared as leaders
of the coalition in different parts of the
I nion. Will ilioy harmonize in defeat,
ninl preserve union and concert in opposi
tion to the administration ot Mr. Van Rtt-
ron? They do not form a j tarty. The
(lilli'i'ciit members of this coalition are
not Itelil tog 'ther by agreement in a com
mon principle, or by reciprocal attach
ment to each other. Now that the people
finvc decided the presidential contest in
favor of tlie candidate of the democracy,
\+lmt course will be pursued by the difler-
■ in fragments which have been united
during the canvass under the common de
nomination, “whig?”
The largest fragment is composed oft be
old It'denii party, existing principally in the
F.u,i, ra and Middle States, and extending
mintin' West. Of this parlv Webster was
generally the first choice; hut many ol
litem lmve supported Harr:son as their
most “available” candidate. They have
rfiiifonnlv opposed the administration ol
mir republican presidents. They were
file enemies of Mr. Jefferson, and obsti
nately opposed that great reform which
he tiiivtcd in die administration ol the
l' deral government. They were ctpjally
hostile to Madison; and in order to em
barrass and disgrace this patriotic repub
lican, they endeavored to prevent the suc
cess of our arms in ■ tr with England.
At a disastrous and iv period of that
war, in their He • .1 (Jon vent ion they
plaited a |reap* . .:,fo dissolution of the
* nion, and tli" ionnatiort of a northern
confederacy, fir Now York tliis party has
generally exerted an active hostility
against Mr. Van Buren-, as I fie leader of
llu democrats of that great State. A
tenacious adherence to their principles
will eomhine with their ancient resent
ments, and their deep-rooted hatred, to
place the old federal party in opposition
the administration of Mr. Van Buren.
And they will al least act consistently.—
They will oppose principles which they
haw always condemned, and a statesman
y dn>in they have always hated.
In the West, a portion of the democra
tic j tarty lias followed Clay, in bis opposi
tion to Van Buren. But they cannot, wc
think, he viewed as implacable enemies
"f the president elect, or opponents of his
principles. They have sought the eleva
tion of their own great orator; and when
he retires fjotn bm unavailing cha.ce Sot
the presidency, (ami we trust that he will
no longer delay to retire,) they will na
turally fall back into their old places in
the democratic ranks. Harrison leads no
fragment of a party. He has no influ
ence. He was only used as a name on
which votes might Ik: concentrated. Wc
think it probable, that in the West a part
ol those who have opposed the ejection
ol Mr. Nan Buren, will lie disposed to
sustain his administration, if its measures
shall be patriotic and prudent.
In tlie South, we expect the continued,
unqualified, violent opposition of the nulli-
fiers. This party, although possessed of
talent and energy, is under pupillage to
John O. Calhoun. After lieing indoctri
nated by him into a most absurd theory,
after being led by him to the verge of trea
sonable violence against the autliority of
flic federal government, there is no rea
son to believe that they will now with
draw themselves from bis guidance. NV
doubt not that he will continue to scheme,
to plan, to direct for them; and that they
will continue lo I>c guided by bis counsels.
No one who is acquainted with Mr. Cal
houn, can doubt what will be bis course.
He is like an evil spirit, who can find no
rest. That inordinate last for distinction,
" hit b in an unhappy hour tempted hint to
sacrifice a lair and beautiful reputation lo
tin the presidency, will continue to goad
him. He will not cease to be the hater
and reviler of his triumphant competitor.
The. more virtuous and talented shall be
the administration of Mr. Van Buren, the
more relentless and implacable will be his
hostility. There is no reason to doubt,
that the nullifiers of the South will be
united to the federalists of the North, in a
uniform opposition to the administration
of Mr. Van Buren.
In tlie Smith, there is a class of men who are
neither federalists nor nullifiers; but who, dur
ing tlie late contest, acted with those parties
from an honest preference for Judge White, or
a sincere distrust of Mr. Van Buren. The
success of this statesman has changed their po
sition, and taken from them tlie motives by
which they have been actuated in their opposi
tion to him. Circumstances made Judge White
their candidate for the presidency; blit ha is not
their leader. They look to him for no opin
ions. Under defeat he sinks intoobsernity, and
their peculiar connection with him is dissolved.
They are not the devotees of Judge White; and
they will shape their own course. They have
failed in their attempt to prevent the election of
Mr. V an Buren; and now it is not possible lor
them to accomplish the object for which their
opposition was designed. Will they not per
ceive tLis change in their position? Will they
continue a blind hostility to Mr. Van Buren,
whether his measures be right or wrong? If lie
shall maintain the democratic principles of our
government, will they join the federalists to
break down these principles? If he shall op
pose the pernicious schemes of the abolitionists,
will they combine with these fanatics to defeat
his measures, and to make him odious to the
people? Fairness, honor, patriotism all forbid
such blind and irrational opposition. It will lie
hotter to wait for the measures of his ndminis.
(ration, belbrc judgment shall be passed on
them; and to support or to oppose them, when
their character can be ascertained. If lie shall
administer our government on correct princi
ples; if he shall firmly and skilfully maintain
our rights against the ambition, the selfishness,
the injustice of foreign nations; if lie shall prac
tice a strict economy and republican simplicity
in the public expenditures; if lie shall restrain
the powers of the federal government within
their constitutional limits, and at the same time
prevent unconstitutional encroachments by the
states; and if ho shall scrupulously guard the
hts of the South, and resolutely oppose every
attempt to interfere with our domestic institu
tion*?, either in the states, or in the District of
Columbia; if such shall be the character of his
administration, what patriotic motive will they
have f.ir opposing him? On the other hand, if
his administration shall be feeble or corrupt; if it
shall prove hostile to the South, no advantage
will he sacrificed in wailing for the dcvelopc.
meet of its real character. Should he disap
point the expectations of his southern friends;
should he prove recreant to his pledges; should
he give any aid or countenance to the pestilent
interference of the nlwdilionists, we hazard noth
ing in asserting, that tlie Union party will op
pose him; and that their opposition will derive
zeal and energy from the consideration, that
their confidence has been violated, and that their
attachment has been repaid with ingratitude.—
But although this is our inflexible determination,
wc have no expectation that wc shall l>c called
to put it in practice. Wc believe that his inter
ests as a candidate for public favour, his feel
ings and oflections as a man, and his duty as a
statesman, will all unite their influence to make
him the zealous defender of the South; and we
hope that those southern men who have honest
ly preferred Judge White, or sincerely distrust-
cd Mr. Van Buren. will wait with patience for
the dcvolopcment of tlie character of his admin
istration; and that they will support or oppose it,
on its merits or demerits.

Rome Knives. We have to add another
name to the list of those victims, who have fal
len prey to the murderous practice of carrying
these fatal, hellish weapons! On Sunday last,
a rencontre took place in this town, between
ROBERT M. DARNELL, [alias Bob Dar
nell] (formerly of Millcdgeville, Georgia,) and
Thomas Leonard, of this place, in which tlie
former received several ghastly stabs with a
large “Bowie Knife,” and expired in about half
an hour. Both the parties were, wc understand,
under the excitement of ardent spirits, and there
was probably no real cause of quarrel between
them. Leonard has fled. Will uot our legis
laturc, now in session, take this matter in hand,
and, by their immediate and efficient action, put
a stop to the murderous practice of selling those
hellish weapons? Men and boys through our
country, are armed with these instruments of
destruction, than which, human ingenuity nev
er invented a more certain destroyer of human
life.
This is tho second victim who has fallen by
them within the last three weeks, in ourcounty,
and unless some efficient legislative action is had
upon this subject, the time is not far distant when
no man’s fife will he safe amongst us. “ Ver-

The President's Health.—The Globe of
the 22il ult. says:—Two nights ago the
President was taken with a cough, which
was succeeded hy a considerable bleed
ing from the lungs. He had suffered for
some time previously with severe pain in
his side. He was relieved from both
unpleasant symptoms, in some degree,
by the lancet. Night before hist the he
morrhage from the lungs recurred, and
was again stopped by tho same process
and other applications. He is now ex
tremely weak from the effect of the dis
order and the remedies, but is belter, and
considered by his physicians'in no imme
diate danger. Many years ago lie was
affected in the same wax', and recovered
without serious injury, or even a long de
pression of his health.
Latest from Texas.—By the arrival of the
schooner Pennsylvania last evening from Ve
lasco, wc have obtained files of the Texas Tele
graph of the i2th instant, containing tlie in
augural addresses of president Houston and
vice-president Lamar; the first of which we
publish in another column, but we arc compelled
lo dolor the latter until tomorrow, for wait of

A discussion upon the lilicration of General
Santa Anna had taken place in congress, but
it was resolved by a large majority, to retain

Mr. Ellis, chairman of the committed on
Foreign Relations, had made it lengthy report
upon the condition and prospects of Texas,
accompanied by resolutions, empowering the
president to appoint commissioners to treat with

admission of Texas into tlie Union.
Congress was despatching rapidly, but great
inconvenience was experienced among the offi

Important from Florida. The brig
General Sumter, captain Bennett, arrived
last evening from Jacksonville, (East
Florida,) whence she sailed on Wednes
day evening last. Tlie General Sumter
had sixteen hours run from light to light.
A passenger in the General Sumter in
forms us that an express had arrived at
Black Creek, on Monday night last,
bringing information that two severe en
gagements had taken place between part
~>f the United States’ army, consisting of
the Tennessee volunteers and tiie Florida
militia, under tho command of General
Call, and the Seminole Indians. The
regulars and the friendly Indians sepa
rated from the volunteers, previous lo the
action, and proceeded up towards the
Wahaw Swamp, on one side of the river,
and the volunteers on the other. When
the latter had nearly reached the swamp,
they fell in wilhabody ol Indians, which
i roved to lie about one half ot their
whole force, and immediately gave them
battle. In about one hour the Indians re
treated having suffered a loss of twenty
killed and a nuinlior woumlcil; tlie latter
tbev carried off with them. -The volun
teers pursued them closely, anil encamp
ed for the night, the enemy continuing on
the lritirch*. The billowing day, (Satur
day) they continued the pursuit, and ovei-

another severe engagement took place,

moats, was five killed and ten wounded. ]
They took prisoner a negro, who stat<._
that the Indians were divided into two
parties—those who were not in the en
gagement are anxious lor peace and will
probably make an overture so soon as
they can escape the vigilance of the war
party, whose threats they fear. Both
parties arc short of ammunition, and it is
expected, should they receive no further
supplies, they will shortly surrender.—
General Call intends keeping his men
moving in pursuit, and using every exer
tion to annihilate this srivagfe horde.—
Great praise is awarded to' General Arm
strong, of the Tennessee volunteers, for
his coolness and brafvery; anti also to
Colonel Head, of tire Florida volunteers,
who commanded in person!. They had
not heard any thing of the regulars arid
friendly Indians, but suppose they could
not have reached tho swamps.-—Charles
