THE MACOilf GEORGIA TEEEGRAPH.
The news
from Millcdgeville in relation to the
c.^,000 appropriation for the Monroe Rail-Road
s”very contradictory and uncertain ; hut as yet the
facts have not been fairly before the Legislature—
3W ] according to our view, it is purely a matter to
he settled by tbe facts of the case. If the compa
„y have complied fully and faithfully with the
jjjjr, the money must be paid, * and if they have
not complied faithfully, their failure to do so, must
be fully set forth to justify the State in refusing the
payment, for as the matter now stands, the sub
script ion of the Governor must be considered a:
presumptive evidence of tho State’s indebtedness
and it will require plain and substantial reasons
to relieve the State from it, without being subject
p the charge of repudiation.
Strnnge Coincident*!
The State of Tennessee, contrary to general ex
pectotion, at the late election, instead of going for
the Democracy, went for the Clay Whigs.
The Locomotive on the Central Rail-Road
that got capsized in a Clay Bank the other day
heels over head, is called the Tennessee /—just
what might have been expected from such an un
fortunate name! But as the Locomotive was soon
dragged out of the miry Clay and placed right
side up—so we hope it will be with her gallant
namesake.
Again : We are told, that the beautiful, lively
Locomotive, which is so hard to keep on the track
jscalled tbe Georgia!
Mr. Clay’s Opinion*
The following is the letter of Mr. Clay to Joel
Branham and Robt. Bledsoe, to which allusion
was made tome weeks ago. It is published now,
by tbe consent of Mr. Clay:
Ashland, 23d July, 1843.
Oentlcmkn:—I doty received your favor of the 13th
inat. in which you inform me that conflicting opinions pre-
Tiil in y°ur State in regard to my opinion* on the policy of
protecting Domestic manufactures, and you request of n.e
information in relation to them. I take pleasure in comply
ing with your request.
My opinion is that the Revenue necessary to an economi
cal administration of the General Government ought to be
derived, in a seaaon of peace, exclusively from duties im
posed on our foreign imports, and that a Tariff for that par
pose ought to ke so adjusted as to afford reasonable en
couragement to our domestic manufactures. I am opposed
to direct taxes aod internal duties, except in time of wai,
when they nay be necessary to give vigor and auccess to
arms. I am opposed to the doctrines of free trade with for
eign powers, all of whom subject our comraercs with them
to restriction often very great and burthenaotne.
These opinions, 1 have alwaya entertained, and still en
tertsin 1 never was in favor of duties being so high as to
amount to a prohibition Of articles on which they were laid.
I hare thought it best for all interests that there should be
competition.' I think it of great importance that a tariff
should poasess stability, is frequent changes affect injur*
ioualy all our great interests. To impart to it that character
it should be moderate, reasonable and certain.
I voted for the Tariff of 1816. 1824 and 1833. I think
x'ley were all reasonable and moderate, at tbe times they
wererespectirely passed. In the infancy of manufactures,
t.ie object being to acquire the skill and accumulate tbe capi-
t d' necessary to their successful establishment, a greater
'..•"ee of protection is expdeient than is lequisite after they
J.jre made a considerable progress. The difficulty lies in
f ting that degree. In 1816, we were without much expe-
: .'once, and failed to make, in all cases, a proper adjustment
■ f the measure of protection. Eight years experience in
J ■'24 enabled Congress to fix it with more equity and preci
sion. Eight years of progress in our manufactures in 1832
j istilied some reduction in the amount of duties, and gener
ally the Tariff of 1842 ii more moderate than that of 1832.
As our manufactures advance and become perfected, less
z.,J less protection will be needed, until many articles will
■be able to compete with the foreign rival articles, without
any protection at all in the form of duties.
I was not in Congress in 1828, and therefore did not vote
•fur the Tariff of that year The dories in many instances
imposed by that Tariff were extravagantly high, and, in
others, duties were imposed which were not called for by
any interest. That Tariff was a fraudulent production. It
was famed by a combination of some members from the
South, and some from the North, who were afraid openly
to rote against a Tariff, and yet wished «o obtain credit
for being favorable to supposed Southern interests. It was
so shaped, with the design of defeating the passage of any
Tstiff; because it was believed that it was so injurious to
the manufacturing interest in many respects, that the hon
est and true friends of that interest would not vote for it.
Had it not been defeated those Northern members, who
united in concocting it, would have returned home and as
serted tharthey were the true friends of protection, and that
its really honest friends were inimical to it. But it Wat not
defeated. The genuine friends of manufactures resolved
not to be cheated by such a combination, and determined to
lake the bill for the sake of the good that was in it, notwith
standing tbe bad which was put there against their consent.
Tbe scheme not having succeeded as was designed, the
Southern members, who were concerned in it, alterwardt
; bitterly reproached their northern confederates for the dis
appointment.
1 have more than half doxen times expressed within the
last two or three years on public occasions, the opinion
which I now communicate as to a combination of the prin
ciples of Revenue and Protection in a Tariff. I send you
herewith the last speech on that sobject which I made in
the Senate of Ihe U. 8. and also a brief sketch of the princi-
pies of the Whig party, as I understand them, which I pre
pared.
1 have no other objection to the publication of this letter
but that it woaid imply a sensitiveness in regard to my
opinion which I do not feel, and I think it has bean already
sufficiently promulgated.
I am your friend and ob't aer't

I HI HE PLANTATION in the first District of llooly
JL county, nine miles below Travellers’ Rest, near the
road to Drayton, known as Hines’ Pond Place. It consists
of 1,100 ncres of very superior Land—8Q0 under fenee, but
little of which has been cultivated more than three years.
No expense or pains was spared in erecting upon the place
the necessary buildings. Dwelling House, Overseer's and
Negro Cabbtns, Gin-House, Barn, Cribs. Fodder Houses,
Stables, ftc. all new and in fine order. But few places have
been so thoroughly or well improved, or can offer so many
inducements to the planter as this—among thura, pare free
stone water, not often found in the low country. Thus fir,
it has proven entirely healthy, and will doubtless continue
so, as the neighborhood has for many years been almost en
tirely exempt from sickness. Persons wishing to purchase
or rent, can examine the place, by calling on John S. Tho
mas or William S. Hamel, Esqs. residing near, who will
have the place shown to them; or for further particulars,
the undersigned would refer to T. G. Holt, James Dean,
Esqs. Dr. C. West, Macon, or H. K. Hines. Esq. All any.
Also, the VALUABLE PLANTATION in Pulaski
county, 5 miles from Hawkinsville, known as tlie Collier
Place, containing 1,600 acres of fine Land, with about 200
acres of open Land, a good comfortable frame Dwelling out
bouses, and atwo-stor.v framed Grist Mill, with two pa r-of
stones, and a Saw Mill in complete order. Both Mills are
situated on a never-failing stream, entirely new, ar.d in com-
plete repair. This is a desirable and healthy location , and
ennnot fail to please such as are in pursuit of a valuable
Plantation, with a Grist and Saw Mill, and every thing at
tached for the convenience of farming.
Also, the PLANTATION in Monroe county, known as
the Rutherford Place, IQ miles from Macon, adjoining the
Hinds of Needham -Mims and John Powers. This place
c ontains 600 acres of fine Land, most of which is cleared and
Q nder good fencing, a comfortable Dwelling, Negro Cabins,
Gin-House, ftc. ftr. situated on an elevated site, within 3 or
400 yards of the Monroe Rail-Road, and is considered en
tirely healthy. This place, witli a little improvement, is
susceptible of being one of tile handsomest locations iu
Georgia. For terms, apply to A P. PAT RICK.
