Mil. CALHOUN- IN GEORGIA.
From '.lie' following extract of a letter, which
we have received from a gentleman of respect
ability in the south it will be perceived that
Sir. Callttfltoj as well as Mr. M’DuHie has beets
preaching a crusade in Georgia. Mr. Cal
houn, it appears from our correspondent’s tic-
count-, seeks his proselytes through displays of
colloquial eloquence, mid shows oil “the mighty
man” in small assemblies.
A very remarkable change; it seems lias-
come over Mr. Calhoun’s views of public pol-
’icv. When he first advocated the principle of
protection, to advance American manufactures,
he declared that his section was not interested
in the system. liis friends Ulterivards, in the
South Carolina legislature-, by resolution, an
nounced tint their support of the policy was a
sacrifice of local to general interests. Now
Mr. Calhoun has found out that “slave labor is
the cheapest in the World, and that the south
ern people could beat the north in manufac
tures—and that the only way to keep the as-
ccudencv in the north, was for them to eman
cipate the slaves in the south.” This is Air.
Calhoun’s new idea upon ihe subject—why. he
propagates it in Georgia is evident. lie wish
es to excite the slave question, and engender
fresh hostility between the north and the south.
And to give color to the suggestions, that the
plied, that tills would not justKV the principle,} several hundred honest men in. Acw England,

which would nrove eventually ruinous to tue j i - - ...l,,i.„ • ■ l
prove ev
liberty of the country. Bur,, he said, we must
lake care of ourselves. The General said he
d,id not wish to be understood as vindicating
the policy of a protective tariff, but, continued
he, you must pardon me for acknowledging,
that, you have weakened my opinion that the
tariff was sectional—the south have more
than a fair share of its inequality, if it be true
that slave labor is the cheapest. From this,
have not other stptes than the south, most cause
fo complain ? After some pleasantly, the Gen
eral said it had been his opinion, that it w,as
the banking system that first gave the capital- !
ists ot tlio United-States a taste for protected i
monied aristocracies, and that this, with the i
but who were far from adopting the opinions of
the anti-slavery Society. Air. Gar risou had de
fined the sole purpose of that Society to be the
immediate emancipation of the slaves. ‘ ml hqw
did he propose carrying it into effect ? Was ii
by calling the men of the South Kidnappers and
Slave-stealers ? Such a Society was well calcu
lated to produce a dissolution of the Union, and
if the Union were to be trampled under foot, he
would hold .Mr. Garrison accountable for it.
Mr. Garrison had not only published liis own o-
piuions ou the subject in England, but has pub
lished British opinions on the subject in America.

the people of the north, than the inteV.-kt titty

filled tint southern suites, then, indeed, the
raw material, which grows upon the planta

they would at once, not only be cut off from a

with regard to pubttfc opinion in Boston, as to

the Slaves iVere two to one in proportion to the

the Slaves should not only he emancipated, but
receivt compensation for their labour, and have a
right to nnike their own laws. The Societies
