tioual remark
There arc many who acknowledge the right of
a state toscccclc, hut deny its right to nullify ; and
vet, it seems impossible to admit tho oue, without
admitting the other. They both presupposo the
samo structure of the government, that it is a U-
ninn of the St.'UCS,*s forming political communn-
tics, the same right on tho part of the states, a&
mcrabers of th* Uui<m, to determine for her citi-

reserved, and of course- to decide whether the
Constitution has, or has not, .been violated, j. lie
limplo difference, then, between: those who ad
mit secession mid deny nullification, and those
who admit both is, that one acknowledges that
the declaration of a siato pronouncing that the
constitution litu been violated, nnd is therefore
mill aud void, would he obligatory on her citizens,
aud would arrest all the nets of the government
within the limits of the state; while they douy,
dint a-similar declaration-, made by the same au
thority, add fU the same manner, that an net of
the government lias transcended its powers, nnd
that it is therefore null and void, would have any
obligation; while tho other acknowledges the ob
ligation in both casci. Tho one admits, that t he
declaration of a state asccnting to the constitution
bound her citizens, mid that her declarations can , bis
imiiiud them; jut dcuios, that a similar derlara- iio
States, any law of Congress passed destructive to
their Navigation, their cssentiel interests, this sup
posed barrier, the.State Veto, would be to them to
tally without value. Should Virginia audTcnnes- j
sec become non-sfavc-hblding States, ihero would i
remain but six slave-holding Stales, and a.violation ;
of the Constitution being committed by the slave-'
holding against ihc non-slsve-holding States, un
der cover of the letter of that instrument, anti not
amounting to a direct and palpable, but still, in the
conception of the slave-holding States, a violation
dangerous to them, there would remain, on Mr.
Calliou’us theory, no redress, no remedy, no alter
native but secession.. There must, then, be at least
one more than one-fourth, to make the Veto act effi
caciously. Now, when it is recollected that the-
slave interest is one of great extent in this country,
and that it comprehends, at'present, but about one-
third of the whole number of Stales, and that it is
likely to become less,, we can estimate the value of
Mr. Calhoua’s new scheme of cheeks dad balan

Hut it will not fail to be seen t|i:it Mr. Calhoun

TO THE PUBLIC.
“AYLhe'btofore declined piakiugany public

gives equal force to tho declaration in the several (rations of his favorite principle. Most assuredly
*B*es. The one denies the obligation where tho
„bjcct is to preserve the Union in the ouly way it
can be, by confining the government formed to ex
ecute tho’ trust powers, strictly, within their limits
a:ul to (tie objects for Which they were delegated,
though they gave full force, where the object is
to destroy the Unioii itself; while the other, in
/firing equal weight to both, prefers tho one be
cause it preserves, and rejects the other because it
destroys; and yet tho former is the Union, and
tile latter the Disunion party! And all this strange
distinction originates, ns far as I can judge, in at
tributing to nullification, what belongs exclusively
to secession. The difficulty as to the former, it
seems to mo is, that n state cannot bo in nnd out
of the Union at the «unc time.
This is iudeed true, if applied to Secession—the
throwing oil' the ar.thorily of ll)c Union itself.
To nullify the constitution, if I may be p.Trdoned
the solec ni. would lildtfcd lie tantamount to dis
union ; aud as applied to such tin net, it would be
true, that a state could not he-in and out out of
tho Union atthi sAmc time; hut tho act would he
secession.
Hut to-apply it to nullification, properly under
stood, the object of which, instead of resistin,
the Hritish history supplies no examples of the
true Federal polity.—Now, if Mr. Calhoun will
look into the records of nil other Confederacies,
lie will sec (Rat unanimity, or the assent of each
member of the Confederacy, was never required, ex
cept where the union was of the loosest character,
to legitimate the acts of that governnient in which
the power and will of the whole' were embodied.
Let bint look to the acts ofour first Federal gov
ernment, under (he Articles of the Confederation,
the truest arid strictest of all Confederacies, con
taining in full vigour the principle of unmodified
Federal power, and say whether, from its organiza
tion, anv number more than a bare majority of the
States was necessary to bind the whole, in the or
dinary action of the government. . Alterations of
th.it compact required unanimous/cssent, . but. this
was the distinction between the ordinary powers of
the government, and that power by ‘which it was
provided, that it should be amended or repaired.
Mr. ChIIioiui contends that the assent of each State
or community, nr class* possessing a distinct inter
est, to the ordinary axis ufa government truly Fed-
end, constitutes tho essence of such government,
forms its originul principle, its unmodified' virtue.
Now, ue have seen that in tho .case of our first

may be as effectually destroyed by increasing as

than they might have been, they may console

The letter which has been going the rounds of

that Board, now in session in New York, states

Hut there is another aspect of the subject, not yet

tiliic to nmicrstaiid the full effects of nullification,
or the retit character of ottr political institutions,
i nilu-le to the power which the stages, ns a con
federated body, have acquired directly over each

some remarks, though I fear at tlic hazard of fa

Previous to the adoption of the present consti
tution, no power could he exercised over any
rinte, by any other, or all of the states, without
its own consent; nnd wo accordingly fiud, that
the old confederation nwl the present constitution,
were both submitted for ratification to each of
the nates, aud that each ratified for itself, and
was hound only in convcqucuce of its own parti
cular ratification, as lias licen already stated.
The preseut constitution has been, in this parti
cular, a most important modification in their cou-
diliou. I alltido to tho provision which gives vi
ridity to aracuumciits of tho constitution, when
ratified by three-fourths of the states—a provision
which has not attracted ns much attention as its
importance deserves. Without it no change
could have been mu(lQ.iti the constitution, unless
with tile niiniiiiuoiis consent of all the states in
like manner as it was adopted.. This provision
then contains a highly ini port uiit concession by
each to all of the states, of n portion of the origi
nal and inherent right of self government, poss-'
cssed previously hv each separately, in favor of
their general confederated powers, giving thereby
increased energy to the Mates-in their united ca
pacity, and weakening ihem in the same degree
io their separate. Its object was to facilitate and
strengthen the action of the amending, or (to
«penk a little snore appropriately as it regards the

Otic charge tb.ntl understand bat gained some cur
rency in the country, is, iba! there ye large amount!*
of the Dills of the Bank of Macon imcirculation that,
d ies not appear on the Books.of the Bsuk.- To this,
1 presume, it will be sufficient to cay, that if - there i?
one Bill, or nny amount of Bills, beeriiy mv signa
ture es Cashier, or issued while 1 was in that < tfice.
that does not appear fairly set forth on-the Tc-olis of
the Ban!;, the holders and owi.ers thereof may con
sider me and my securitiesliable and boifnd far" tlieir
redemption; aud they shall be promptly paid on pre
sentation ; and that every man may see whether hiik
Bills Lave.been properly entered or not, I suggest
tiiat the Registerot"tlie Bills regularly issued by the
Bank be deposited in some public otiire where every
Bill bolder may call end examine for himself. But
they will find none such in circulation.
One other charge is, that I have sold, .made over
and passed outof tny possession all my properly, with
a view of evading or securing it from any liabilities
that might be created against me on account of the
Bank, To this 1 can give a fiat contradiction
1 have tint, on that account, sold one dollars worth
of any thing. I have now as much as lever pos
sessed, 'which is entirely free from any incuui-
hrance whatever; and 1 have nothing more than the
fair proceeds of art honorable business. All I possess
is subject, and wiH remain so, lo any .claims (hat can
be establishedug:.inst me on account of the Bankor
any thing else. And ! myself am at tny place, abet
have been, and shall continue to bo, ready to be

I resigned the office of C ishier of the Bank of Ma
con in the month ol February 11st, since which •!me
I have had no-conuexiou, agency, influence, or con
trol of its aflaiis. I then considered its bills perfectly
good, and its means were such us t 1 justify that belief
—that every thing belonging to the Bmik was fairly;
turned over by tnc lo my successor, 1.. Alkitnon, Esi'j.
will.be seen liy reference to Jiis receipt, a copy of
which is here annexed, and a list of the papers then
running lo maturity in the Bank, can be sfcen at my
office and will show for themselves; and that ..(lie
proprietor uiid managers of the Bank considered it
perfectly good fer several months after l" left it, there
is abundant proof in ■ their own statements made at
various limes and places.
The very short period before the meeting of the
Legislature, (u heti 1 shall endeavor to have the af
fairs of the Bunk fully in vcstigaled,) prevents me now
from mentioning’such'facts, and abuses ns I under
stand do exist, bnt*which I have no doubt Will be
made appeal-by the proper authorities, and until all
the facts are properly made known, l beg tlie indul
gence of the community lo suspend any unfavorable
impressions. For while I do not Seek, or Wish to c-
vade anyjnsfresponsibililio on that account. 1 am e-
qually unwilling to bear the burthen of other persons
