|bi8 i s news to us, and is no doubt e<iually
1 " v (’nail those who are conversant with the his-
* of the times. But, as the Recorder lias be-
' n Lalitudinarian in construction, we must
tritablv allow him room fi.r stretching{ but we
S3U- fl^3in9,1,19 fean '"° blan1:cl f
. The truth of the whole matter is simply
r^and well docs the Recorder know it, that, in
r'eoraia 'be opposition to Mr. Calhoun did not
’ 8 riom any disrelisli of his political principles
of measures, for all these were in close and rigid
liccping with the doctriues recognized by theohl
d lrue State Rights Scltnol, but solely originated
• n jflcal and selfish feelings—Mr. Calhoun was op-.
' d am l vituperated, because his superior claims
lacked up Mr. Crawford’s passage to the Presi-
and, here we have “the truth and the
whole truth,” of the origin and progress of the op
position to Mr. Calhoun in this State.
••When,” says the Recorder, “we settle the mat
ter sansfoeiorily in regard to Mr. Calhoun, we r an
soon settle the other,” [Mr. Clay’s sins ofomission
and commission,]—"for where assumptions arc all
that are dealt in, it is quite an easy matter* our
neighbor knows, to meet assumption with assump
tion. and at least make a drawn battle of it.”
•‘.Make a drawn bottle of it”? did you say. Why,
m v dear eotemporory, this is about as fair and jea-
sonablc a pro|iosilion, ns would have been a similar
one coming from Cornwallis to Washington after
the surrender of Ynrktnwn; or from Wellington’s
Invincible! to Andrew Jackson, when he sacrifi
eed their hecatombs upon the altar of Liberty, and
drove their bleeding fragments howling to the sea '
—No, no, no—we can’t “make a drawn battle of it,'
Mr. Recorder—hut we will let yon go upon your
r arolk of honor if you will in time retire from the
Anti-Southern Colours of Henry Clay, and enlist
under the broad, beaming nnd brilliant Banner of
Democracy, the ample folds of which proudly float
over the whole Union and embtace it as one and
indivisable.
The Recorder \vill*pardon us, but we must say
that it has again erred in intimating, that “assump
tions are all that have been dealt in," in the contio-
versy between us. The assertion is strictly true
indeed, when applied to the course pursued by our
cotempnrary—but, it is altogether inapplicable to
us. We introduced the best evidences of which
the rase is susceptible—’they were, a succinct his
toryof its prominent facts, and ofthe causes and ef
fects originating and growing out ofour Indian Re
lations, all based upon authentic documentary tes
timony; and. finally, upon the very Testimony of
Hie Recorder himself, which we feel very confident,
will not be vitiated by our worthy adversary. That
we may refresh Iris memory, we respectfully beg
Jcave once more to introduce it:
From the Southern Recorder, July 33, 1829.
Mr. Clay.
Hallo tl buey de Kentucky, dixo bush •
This gentleman, in a speech lately delivered at a dinner
in Louisville. Ky. depreciated in atrong terms the course
pursued by the' President [Gen. Jackson.] toward* the
Creek Indiana; pronounced it rruel, unauthorised end dei
porlic; and dented the right of Georgia to extend her laws
iver the aoil within her own limits, Ac. Ac.
Mr. Clay is determined to oppose every -measure of the
present administration, [Jackson'a.] In this opposition he
•icntices all the principlea he once so eloquently advocated,
and the high tome he acquired, as the undaunted champion
of die republican party and of its political doctrines. In
censuring the President for the course he intends to pursue
towards the Indiana, and for his admission of the rights of
tleorgia and Alabama, t, extend their laws over their ter-
ritorial limits. Mr. Clay goes 1 farther titan the federalists
ererdid, in defining the powers of the federal government
and in circuinacribfng the powers ofthe States. According
to Mr. City'* new doctrine, the Federal Government it ev
ery thing, ana the State Governments nothing The former
is'supreme. and the latter mere provincial Governments
which cannotexerciseany authority, for local purposes, with
out the aanctic n of tho F ederal Government. If such a dec-
id* were to predominate in this oountry. the Union wonld
soon be annihilated, and all the power* which the Slates have
retained, would' be concentrated in the Federal Govern-
Brut, which wsuld swallow the Republican 8yatem now ex
isting. and destroy the equilibrium now kept up by the man
tier the three branches of this Government are chosen and
their powers made distinct and separate. The doctrine to
he interred from the declarniioti of Mr. Clay, is monstrou*;
it should be discountenanced by every friend of the country,
ofthe ronstitution, and of the Union ofthe States.
‘‘We hsd yet some hopes of Mr. Clay. His last speech
removes forever in the South at least, the respect which
tnny yet entertained for ilia past services to the country
»nd to the republican party."
Does not this testimony smack of something a
little stronger than mere “assumption”? And did
not our authentic introduction of Mr. Crawford’s
and Mr. Cal Noun’s official acts, and our irtithful re
ferences to the mal-Administration ofMessra. Adams
and Clay, carry with thorn a weight more potent
than "assumption"} Most indubitably lltey did—
for if they did not, we could not re-echo ns we now
do the declaration of the Recorder, that tty^In
censuring the President for the course -he intends
to pursue towards the Indians, and for his admis
sion of the right of Georgia and Alabama to extend
their laws over their territorial limits, Mr Clay
GOES FARTHER THAN THE FEDERAL
ISTS EVER DID, in defining the powers of the
federal government and in circumscribipg the pow
ers of the States.".'! '.*£Q
We have beep complimented by a respected
brother more than we deserve for vindicating, as
he is pleased to tettn it, Mr. Calhoun’s course■ of
policy in reference to our Indian Relations. We
truly thank him for the very handsome way in
which he has noticed our humble labors—but, we
must be permitted jo repeat as we said in the be
ginning ofour controversy with the Recorder, that
Mr. Calhoun’s political acts require no defence—
they vindicate themselves; nnd io effect this,
it has cost us no more thnn the time we have enrt-
.ployed in preparing, arranging nnd presenting them
to the people.
Post scriptum.—It is hoped that the Recorder
'**11 not consider us impolite or importunate in res
pcctfully, repcaijng ourso.icitation. that he .will be
kind enough to furnish us with n translation of the
quotation referred to in our last dispatches.

On motion of Col. Lamar, E. C. Blake Esq.
was called upon to make known the object of the
meeting, which was done in a brief, appropriate and
happy manner.
Col. Lamar, then rose and suggested the proprie
ty of deferring a nomination to a future meeting.
Col. Powers, Mr. Ells and Col. Lamar then ad
dressed the meeting with much enthusiasm, and
in a manner which cheered and gave nbundunt
satisfaction to every Democrat. Gen. Wm. G.
Smith then offered the following Resolutions,
which were unanimously adopted:

John G. Coleman, Sec’y.
To the Editor of the Telegraph :
Sir—Paul, not t’le learned and accomplished
Isralite; but Paul, tiic blundering and stupid igno
ramus—Paul, not the humble and forgeving Apos
tle; but Paul, the persecuting and intolerant bigot,
has again defiled the columns oftheMessenger with
his calumnious evacuations nnd filthy eructations.
T deeply regret that it once more becomes my duty
to rebuk^/um, who has assumed anti degraded the
name of one, before whom Felix trembled on his
throne. I had consoled myself with the trflection.
that the sharp and merited reprehension which he
received, would bring him to his senses; and that,
in his hours of cool deliberation, he would perceive
the flagrant injustice he J^ad heaped, not only upon
a very numerous and highly respectable Party, but
also upon the very State which fosters and protects
him; and tliat, having done so, he would magnan
imously repair his fault, and humbly solicit that
pardon he so greatly needs. But, Sir, I have been
disappointed—the calumniator has wilfully and vol
untarily “returned to his vomit and to his wallow
ing in the mire.” Let me then, analyze and probe
the animal, nnd see of what materials he is made.
He sets out w'ilb.a lame and imjtotent attempt to
shuffle off ujton his printer the wholesale slander
and abuse which he, “ pretty Poll,” has cast upon
the State of Georgia. In his endorsement of the
original calumny, he said, “ For the truth of this
declaration, no impartial man needs any other
proof than the history of the State to the present
time. It has been “ the Texas" of the Slates for
those toffee to, who feel themselves too ignorant or
too corrupt to obtain office elsewhere.” Now I
beseech the reader to notice critically the syntacti
cal airangement of the foregoing quoted sentences,
anil then compare them with the skulking mean
ness used to evade the responsibility, as exhibited
in the following explanation, addressed to the Edi-
tot Of the Messenger. In endorsing Mr. Craw
ford’s offensive declaration, ‘pretty Poll’ now says:
“I declared [it] true, and for proof appealed to
the history of the State, [anil] added .that it [the
party] had been the Texas of State (you, by mis
take, printed it States—not much the worse for the
mistake,) for those to flee to who feel themselves
too ignoiant or too corrupt to obtain office else-
whero.’’
Here, then, is internal evidence, as “strong as
proof from Holy Writ," of what kind of stuff
‘ pretty Poll’s’ veracity .is made : either he has fab
ricated this erratum, or he is the most egregious
blockhead that ever put pen to paper—for alier the
sentence as the scribbler would have it, and tlte
meaning is ent'nely destroyed, nnd every rule of
gramtner and tommon sense outraged nnd set at
naught. A pauy. "A< Texas of stale!"—mon
strous perversion, ridiculous quibbling, unmanly
fabrication! and the poor devil of a printer to shoul
der it all. Did not the crimson tell-tale of shame
burn the face of the type-sticker when he saw the
original copy thus mariedand mutilated? Doubt
less it did—for like his tribe generally, we presume
him * honest and true’—but, for the author, lie is
past praying for—his intimated front istoo deeply
incrusted with the rust.of impudence fot a blush to
force its way through his stagnant blood.
Having thus, Sir, *amended his writ,’ Pretty
Poll, highly elated with his critical acumen, essays
a display °f his classical lore, and triumphantly
requests the Editor of the Messenger to ask me, "in
