lude, and with a spirit ami tlcsirc to find some
thin'* >P tha proceedings of that body, tending to
harmony, founded upon acts of justice, and a
mote iacred regard for the principles of our Fed
eral system. But each succeeding mail, during
the late loug session, did but strengthen my mis-
••ivings, iu longer looking to that body to savo the
country from the threatening evils of that partial,
oppressive and unconstitutional legislation. Yet
jnslicc requires the admissiou, that in the pas
sage of the Tariff act of the late session, a major
ity of both branches of Congress did mauifest
something of a spirit of conciliation towards each
other. The majority too. manifested a spirit of
co operation with tho Executive branch of the
Federal Government in sustaining this act, winch
(although, by no means a satisfactory measure
of compromise,) has been calculated to allay pre
sent excitement, qiid to check the impetuosity of
the rash and violent. This act was passed by
the votes of members who did uot approyo its
provisions, but sustained it as a choice of evils.—
They voted for its passage in preference to disu
nion, or the Tariff act of 18*28. While I consider
the principles of the last act, equally, if not more
obnoxious than that of 1828, yet 1 am bound to
admit, that it relieves the whole people of the U-
nited States of a portion of the burthens of taxa
tion; and therefore it may be considered as an
effort, at least, on tho part of a portion of the
friends of the protective system, to modify the
law. so ns to make it lcs3 obnoxious to our feel
ing,. But unless this step of conciliation is fol
lowed by further'concessions, they do but deceive^
themselves, if they suppose that tho South will
ever become reconciled. Upon a fall view of
the whole subject, I would most decidedly recom
mend, that our forbearance and moderation be
made manifest to the whole Union, before we
enter upon any doubtful or violent remedy, cal
culated to jeopardise the existence of tho .Feder.
al Union itself. Our complaints are. iust, and
our cause righteous—indurance is not intolerable;
and a new Congress, under the last census, will
assemble under circumstances, and at a time
more auspicious for calm and patriotic delibera
tion. 1 am not a stranger to tho selfishness of
incu and of communities, but I have not yet lost
’ all confidence in the virtue and iutfelligcnce oftfio
.American people. If our opponents be capable
of wise self government, they must ere long be
brought to see tho justice of our cause: based,
ns it is, on principles no less essential to'them
than tp us; at least, may wc not hope that tho
coinmoti classes of tho laboring people, overy
where, will yet be brought to unite withfls against
tho whole system, as being dcsigtied to beuefit
nit aristocratic few, and to oppress the . poor for
the exclusive benefit of the wealthy? But should
these, my best anticipations, be founded in error,
aud originate in wcakuess, I beseech uiy coun
trymen, who are in favor of direct and immedi
ate resistance, to remember that they aro requir
ed by every principle of sound philosophy, virtuo
and patriotism, to exercise patience and long for
bearance toward their brethreu, of the same faith
and principles with themselves, in regard to tho
usurpations of the Federal Government. It is
truly gratifying to know, that tho southern peo-
plo are so well agreed as to the existence of the
evils contplaiaed cf. This bciug the case, noth -
ing hut union aud concert arc wanting to give
au irresistible, moral force to our opinions aud
feelings, and to. make ourselves formidable in a-
ny event. To obtain this desirable union of ac-
lion, time aud labor are required. I do not con
sider the mode ami manner of producing thcs*c
joint deliberations material, nor do 1 caro'bv
what name such councils may bo called. It is
only necessary that these measures should cmi-
nate directly from tho enlightened aud deliberate
will of tho people; founded. Upon their inherent
and unalienable rights; admitted to bo extraor
dinary, aud intended to meet a most extraordina
ry emit.
No Slate can act efficiently in sustaining her
just rights against a mighty power, unless her
own population are united in the policy to be
pursued. I cannot consider it advisable, for a
single Slate, upon her separate action, to under
take to force a redress of grievances from the Fed-
oral Government, while her sister States, equal
ly interested, arc not cVcn consulted as to the
policy to be pursued. Principles cf common
courtesy must concede to tho member? of the
same confederacy or copartnership, a right to
participate iu all councils, where the subject un
der cousidcratiou, and the policy to be adopted,
are equally interesting tot each member. \\ heu-
cvcr a case, however, shall arise, wherein a sin
gle State shall bo oppressed by the usurpations of
Federal power, ntid that pressure shall he con
fined to her local interest alone, and consequent
ly produce no identity of feeling . and iutercst in
the other States; then I would consider it the
incumbent duty of the aggrieved State to judge
aud act for herself,'independently of the advice
aud opiuiotis of others. It is due to the sove
reign character of every State of the Union, to
maintain its territorial rights aud policy over its
population. These arc rights which can
be surrendered by n free Stale, or'subrnit-
a State, by ks plain proper name; rcsistaucc to
intolerable usurpation.
Georgia should uot suffer herself to he deluded
or flattered into the belief, that her rights have
heretofore been maintained upon the principle!
and doctrines of nullification, as contended for by
its present advocates. It is true, we may look
back with pride and pain, on our past conflicts
with Federal usurpation. .Upon several occasions
wo liavo been compelled:to throw ourselves upon
our reserved rights aud resist Federal encroach
ments ; hut wc have iicvrfr veiled ourselves in tho
flimsy garment of peaceable constitutional nullifi
cation. Iii these delccato and highly responsible
acts, Georgia has always relied on her own pop
ulation, thejusticc of her cause, and the virtue
and intelligence of .the people of tho United States
to sustain her unquestiouablo constitutional rights.
And, hitherto, our confidence lias uot been mis
placed; we have had able friends and advocates
in every part of the Union, who have stood by us
iu times of tho greatest peril. \Vo aro at present
very improperly charged with nullifying tho in
tercourse laws and Indian treaties of the United*
States, when in fact, these laws and treaties
were set aside, and had hecomo measurably ob
solete by the acts aud assumptions o( the Chero
kee Indians themselves. * Georgia, by her course
of policy, has only nullified tho arrogant assump
tions of sovereign power, claimed and set up by.
a re mu ant of the bboriginal race, within her ac
knowledged chartered. limits.
Finally, fellow-citizens, let us strive to be of
ouo mind, let our measuros be founded iii wis
dom, justice and moderation—constantly hearing
iu mind the sacred truth, that a nation' or State
“divided against itself cannot stand.”

never
ted to the arbitration of others.. But upon the
subject of the Tariff, shall Georgia undertake to
tedress the wrongs of tho wholc'Soutli? Shall
wc not harken to the voice acd movements of
our sister States, who agree with us in principle
and feeling ? Or shall we precipitately rush for
ward upon a novel and untried theory, which
tuny disgust our sister Statos, end iu abortion,
and provo to he worse than submission itself?
The States which agree in principle, must lie
brought to act iu* concert, before they can reason
ably hope to produce the consummation desired
by the opponents of the protective system as well
as cveiy true patriot and friend of the Federal
I’liiou. Separate action upon this subject is cal
culated to engender strife and disunion, anarchy
and confusion, among brethren of the same prin
ciples.
The mystical doctrine of nullification, as con
tended for by its advocates, lias only tended* to
bewilder the minds of the pcoplo, iuflamo their
passions, and prepare them for anarchy and rev
olution. Whenever it spreads, it engenders the
most hitter strifes aud animosities, and dissolves
the most endearing relations of life. 1 believe
nullification to be unsound, dangerous and delu
sive in practice as well as theory.
Its advocates have, with great ability, endeav
ored to make their iheory harmonize with the
principles ami operations of our Federal and
State systems, of Government. But in my opin
ion. tho very essence of their doctrine tends di
rectly tb destroy all harmony between the Feder
al and State Governments, and must inevitably
produce the most direct and voxaliou3 conflicts*
whenever it may bo attempted by a State to cn-
* lorce the theory of nullification. I am unable to
comprehend or conceive of the peaceable consti
tutional harmony, which would attend a meas
ure cmenating one twenty-fourth jrart of the
sovereign power of the Union; which measure
should stop the revenue operations of the Gov
ernment. Great ingenuity has bleu exercised to
lend this new iheory with tho admirable princi
ples aud doctrines of State rights, as set forth and
successfully advocated by Thomas Jefferson.—
But after the most diligent research, I have not
iH iui able to find where Mr. Jefferson over at
tempted to delude the people into the belie!, that
wh •>! reason failed, aud endurance become ihtol-
tr u-.le, ? single State could, by its acts of nul ift r
eauoa. force the Federal Government to retract

GOVERNOR’S MESSAGE.
The message of Gov. Lumpkin occupies a
large space in o;ur paper of this week. It is
the most business like, document tve* have seen
for many a day, and is highly spoken of* by
men of all parties. * In fact, there can be hut
one opinion on the .subject, that of unqualified
commendation. Ilis remarks on Federal'usur
pations * and the indignities suffered by our
State, find a response in the bosom of every.!
true Georgian; and .his suggestions on the
Cherokee lands, on Education, on the militia
system, &c. &c. evince a sound judgment and
practical good sense. . .i
On the subject-of Nullification jhc Governor
comes out flat-footedlie puts a veto to the
base insinuations of his beitig a nullifier; and
handles that new fangled-unintclligiblc hcresV
without mittens. At the same time he is no
stibmissioilBt—no-Tariffite. He applies Jo the
protective system a merited condemnation;
and by an admirable sagacity takes the true
ground between the two extremes of constitu
tional interpretation and party violence.. We
commend it to a Careful perusal : principally,
because it is a good sound .document and
.preaches wholesome doctrine; and -also, be
cause it sustains the ground we ourselves hare
taken, on the much talked of and little under
stood subjects of protective policy, and nullifi
cation. It agrees with tho sentiments of Jack-
son, and Barbour, as we have -understood
them; and corresponds also with the principles
laid down lty Jefferson and Madison. That it
wjll be carefully read and generally approved
(except by determined faf.lt finders,) we fully
believe:

The Vice,Presidency.-—Though the returns
of the late Election for Electors of President
and Vice President generally give majorities
in favor of the Troup,ticket, it ought not by
any rticans to be considered a test of the
strength of-the two parties;. nor, of the popu
larity of Mr. Van Burcn who is-generally sup
ported by that party.
We believe the Clarkites, os individuals and
as a party, arc not less patriotic than their op
ponents; and whenever a suitable occasion
offers, will go .as far to evince their patriotism.
But it requites a strong, excitement to bring
them to ari election, and they will seldom turn
out. Hence it frequently happens, that in
counties where they arc much tho strongest,
their more vigilant, more clamorous, and more
ambitious opponents, monopolize all the offices!.
While the Troupers arc running to elections
and $cr,ambling for office, the honest Clarkers
arc at'work in their fields. This is probably
the reason too, why tho latter feel the effects of
the oppressive tariff system so much less than
tho former. - *

willing to confnlc to him in a civil capacity, .those
rights and privileges, wliiih lie had so much and
so successfully contributed to support and ‘ protret
in the camp. As slierifl', and represci iativ.-j first
in the house, and then in the senate of ths state
legislature, of the respectable county of Wilkes, it
was his good fortune after years of service, to give
complete satisfaction to his constituents.
Near the conclusion of the late war, at a most
critical and dangerous time, the command of all
the forces destined for the protection and defence
cf the sea-coast and southern boundary, of the
state of Georgia, was given to him by Gov. Early.
In 1310 he was elected bv the legislature, elector
of President and Vice-President -of the.United
States ; and was afterwards twice honored with the
office of Qovenor of the State. Besides the fore
going, lie has received several other appointments*
and commissions front the Icgislatuie and gcvchots
of Georgia.
In 1327, he moved to West Florida, and sought
a retreat from the cares aud tutmotls of busy life,
on the secluded borders of St. Andrews Bay,
whore he hoped to spend the evening of a not un
eventful life in the enjoyment of domestic' quiet
and repose. The expenses incident to a settle
ment in a new country, soon rendered it necessary
for him again to embark in active business, and
iho appointment of agent, for the protection of
live-oak, haviug been tendered him, he accepted
it, and notwithstanding its duties were anlut.C-:,
and the performance of them attended with con
stant exposure, yet being urged by the department
at Washington to bring the business to a .close,
and having the kindest iegard fur the future pros
pers and welfare of his family, lie, at the most un
wholesome season of the. year, exposed himself, in
the discharge of a duty, to the inclemencies of
the most unhealthy portion of-his'di.stiict, and /ell
a victim to the umelcntmg hand of death. And
in that stroke, that family has sustained a loss
which no time, no cirdbfnsiances can rc-prir.

‘•’He had kept
Tbs whiteness of his soul, and thus uicn o’er him
wept.” ■].
Departed this life 011 the 15th October, 1832,
at hjs residence on St. Andrews Bay, in the 67th
year .of his age, Ocn. JOHN‘CLARK, formerly
of Georgia. * On the 30th of September, while
epgngcd in the duties of the live-oak" agency, he
was attacked with bilious fever on St. Vincent
island, and was carried thence in a small sloop to
his residence on St. Andrews Bay, where he lin
gered* until the cveuiug of the I2tll October, when
b.c breathed his last.
Few men have lived the life which he lived—at
au early period of his existence, he selected the
best of principals, as his rules of action, iif all the
various relations of life,—up to the day of his death
he adhered to them with a pertinacity, co-cxistiug
.with life itself.
During the struggles-of the revolution, lie usu
ally attended his father, the gallant Col. Elijah
Clark, aud participated iu tho many-skirmishes
ami battles, in which that activo partisan warrior
was engaged-—at the age of fourteen tl;e stlbjcst
of this notice, was sentto school in Wake county
North Carolina, where he did not long remain, be
fore a Routing party being raised.to go agaiust
tho 'British find Tories, he joined them ami after
hisrcturtl from that expedition, finding au oppor
tunity of company to the place where ho left his
father, he abandoned hisschool; he again joined
his father in tho ranks of his countrymen, and
fought under him at the last siege of Augusta, At
the age of 16 lie was appointed ’.‘eotenant, find
then Captaiu of Militia. In 1786, he was elected
major, and in that capacity, he commanded in
1787, under his father, in the battle fought with
Indians at Jack's Creek, ‘ Those who a>*e now in
life, and remember the events cT that regi-m will
recognize intheuame of tho cLepvr'
in tho-hlooin of youtis, wm tho mov
rallying point, at a time little less di
the troubles of tne revolution. •
