Wc have perceived from various sources, n disposition to bring this question before the public, but generally traced its origin to per sons living north of the Potomac. Notwith standing the great delicacy of the subject we felt no alarm at these indications, because we were assured by the most eminent north ern men, in both Halls of Congress, from the bench, the pulpit, and through the press, that none hut fanatics and visionaries, without friends or influence, manifested any desire to i tamper with it; and that the great body of their enlightened population, entertained just sucji sentiments as wc would have them to entertain. We are now compelled reluctantly, we eon less to withdraw our confidence from sucit as surances, to some extent. Our attention has recently been called to a speech delivered by Air. Burgess of Rhode Island,on Vcrplank’s hill, during Lie last Congress, which displays throughout; a rancorous and vulgar hostility to the slave holding population? which no momentary excitement could produce, and no deliberate consideration of the subject justify. It appears to he an attempt to arr.tv the free white lain r of the north, in feeling and interest, against the slave labor of the South by argument, by appeals to passions and prejudices, Uv ridicule, by abuse. We have not seen the whole of that speech, hut shall lay 1 e ore our readers such parts of it, next week, as sustain tile charges here made against it. The constitution protects this property, and prudence and policy, demand that it should not he disturbed. Tnere exists as we believe, a settled determination to re sist all interference with it, from whatever quarter, by such means as will he efficient. — l( is well enough, therefore, that this deter mination he known and the question nut at rest. Its evils wc deplore. They cannot at this time be diminished, and the first move Btpon the subject should be left to those who are iuterosted in tic subject.” ‘ Yet the fact which extorts this admission from the Southern Advocate, is surely but slight, in com parison with the mass of proofs that can he brought to this matter. NVe vill cite a few of die leading ones. M r. Adams’ great rep i t - the first ever studious ly and elaborately made, in Congress. It was cm. ployed by the ultra Northern party, as their capital resource against us : Tiie language in debate of a number of the mem bers of t engross, from the free States - language so strong, that even Col. Drayton felt compelled to re sist it: ’I he still more atrocious language, notoriously I employed by them, in continual private eonversa- j tions with Southern men : The printing, by Congress, of a large number of I Mr. Adams’ anti-slax ery lleport, ot which the whole I purpose and tendency is, to attack our slave proper- j The le-printuig, by the National Gazette, (the chief organ ot the Northern party) of a very large ! editio i of that Report, for gratuitious distribution: I A like reprint, in Huston tor the same purpose, of another large edition: The praises heaped upon that report, by a multi-1 tilde of die Northern papers; and the efforts made by them, on all hands, to magnify its importance : j The general tone of the Northern papers, of! which the greater part, even when they disavow | any design to attack us on this dangerous question, j yet continue to pursue the very course of which we ! c unpluil!: The prevailing temper of the pulpit, in die North: j and its unbounded influence over their’population I is well known : 3 he manifest inclination of their charitable so. cicties in general to meddle in this thing : The di-! lect interference in it of a leading part of their Tern-1 Iterance Societies: The new and wido effort! to got up colonization Societies, and their extensive success : The sudden ! establishment of five or six new period cals, devut-1 ci to abolition or colonization : The sending .Messrs. Cairison, Lundy & Cos., on ; missions to England, the West &c. The progress of! things in the British Parliament ; which with the i vast influence that is exercised by that country over! die whole civilized world, cannot hut strongly affect i this question : The threatening doctrines set up by the proclaim ‘ ation; which has taught n party, always i tent up. j on these tilings, that there is a pow er in the govern- j incut ready to make itself the instrument of any j such arbitrary measure, and strong enough to uii-* dcitukc any thing it pleases. — ul. Times. From the Alabama Kxposiler. The battle ol' roj uhlicariism is again so he ! fought, and as present appearances seem to j indicate, against fearful odds. The Federal ists of 1798, —the manufacturers and all con- j ncctcd in interest with them, who desire to ; reap large harvests from the operations of government ; and office seekers, whose polar star is a blind devotion to the powers that he, have organized an opposition which threa tens the subversion of our fundamental poli tical principles, and the establishment of the government on the plundering principle that j the labor of the many should be appropriated to support the profligacy, ambition or avarice J of the /etr. The Apostle of Liberty, Jeffer son, around whom our fathers gathered to v in dicate their rights, is no snore, and his sacred mantle has descended on politicians, whose highest patriotism is circumscribed to the, low desire of using it for self aggrandize-1 ment, reckless of the disgrace they may in flict on constitutional liberty orihe ruin they may bring upon the country— Jacks have; clothed themselves with the Lions skin, and 1 their ciuven bravings arc bringing State Rights and State Remedies into disrepute. It is time the people should arouse themselves and once more assert the principles of the , character of their liberties. It is time that those who advocate the doctrine of consoli dation, under ’.iio- holy banner of the Union and flic Constitution, should be compelled to separate themselves from the republican ranks. !t is time to prepare the lots, they will assuredly fall upon the apostate political Jonahs, and our ship of state be saved.’ Jt is time tiiat men should he judged by the principles they advocate, and not the impos ing name they may choose to assume. It is time to ro-assertthc doctrines of ilia republi can party of 1798. Let us adduce the refin ing test. Tiie Virginia Resolutions, which have been the proud boast of the republican party, declare that “ it views the powers ofj the Federal Government as resulting from i the compact, (the Constitution) to which the ■ Stales are parties, as limited by the plain I sense anti intention of the instrument contti-, I lut| ng that compact, as no farther valid than ! (hey arc authorised by the grants enumerated ! in that compact jand that in cases of a deli- j berate, palpable, and dangerous exercise of j other powers, not granted by the said com-: pact, the States who arc parties thereto, have a right, and are in duty bound to inter pose lor arresting the progress of the evil, and for maintaining, within their respective limits, the authorities, rights and liberties ap pertaining to them.” Agaih, the Kentucky Resolutions of the same era, among other tilings declare, “ that to this compact, (the constitution) each State acceded as a State, and is an integral party; that this Govern ment, (the United States) created I,v this compact, was not made the exclusive or final judge of the extent of the powers delegated to itself, since that would have made its discre tion and not the constitution, the measure of its powers; but that as in all other cases of compact, among parties having no common judge, each party has an equal right to judge for itself as well of infractions, as of the mode and measure ol redress.” These are the doctrines ol republicanism, as promulga ted by Jefferson and Madison, and the Le gislatures of Virginia and Kentucky, and were the rallying points, around which our fathers assembled, and achieved a glorious victory over federal leaders and federal usiir pations. But these principles are unblush ingly denied, by men who call themselves re publicans, and claim powers and prerogatives lor the federal government, entirely dtstruC' ive of the Union of thess United States, as de fined by our faderal constitution. Bv what strange mairic have these inconsistencies been brought about? Why were some men two years since, so cimnerous about the cir culation ot a lew copies of Daniel Webster’s speech—and why are they now so b< V In commendation of the principles contained in that speech, and in praising the President’s proclamation, which reiterates these princi ples ? J here is something wrong in Den man;,and the time-serving seeker of populuii tv, who directs his course with every fitful breeze, will learn alter the people Him their attention to the principles of thetr govern ment, (hat he lias changed once too often ; that he has changed from stable principles to evanescent popularity. It is my purpose hereafter, to take up the resolutions of Virginia and Kentucky, and prove from tlie political records of the coun try, that t.iey contain the true exposition of the principles on which our federal govern ment is founded, and that Daniel AVebster and President Jackson, and all the small fry politicians who follow in sheirwake, have as’, sumed a dangerous and untenable ground, when they assert, that the federal constitution consolidated the political power of the States, ami that she federal government is supreme in all things, or is, in other words, file exclu sive and final judge of the extent of the pow ers delegated to it, and that its decision, m ight or wrong, salutary or ruinous, constiT tutiorial or despotic, is oliligatorv'”oii the El ites, and that they are hound to acquiesce, or incur she peaceful and republican execu tion of an odious law, by Executive swords, enlisted bayonets, anti a standing army.

Harford, late Cashier ol the Branch of the Darien Bank, at Macon, was con victed of the cilarges of embezzlement, and sentenc ed to the Penitentiary for six yeurs.

We have given our opinion of the virtues and patriotism of this distinguished gentleman ; and al though the puerile taunts of the enfledged conduc tor of the above paper cannot he regarded by us, yet I there are many ot ers of our faith, who may be dis. : posed to give them more consequence. We would i say to the guardians of this juvenile editor, restrain the exuberance of your ward’s zeal, lest it does more injury than benefit to the opponcut of the pre sent Governor. “ Frosn grave so gay.” Asa relict to our readers, wo present them this week with our sheet almost entirely filled with Li. terary and Miscellaneous matter. With the Ther. iiiomcter at 90, exciting discussions iu polities should he avoided: they might bring on the Dillious fever, and perhaps the Cholera itself. Kor the present we avoid both. The mind should he permitted to take a quiet stroll in the embowered shades of I’arnassus, and sip (drinking is vulgar and unetherial) the cool w aters ot Helicon and Castaly. The Convention— Reduction, and other titles that pain our eye with their staring capitals—the fire and lury flashing from their full faces, wc have stu. diousiv and considerately, as we think, eschewed for the present. At this time, wc have no “ cool” feelings towards a single individual, not even the authors ot the Proclamation and Bloody Dill; und we would not be accessary, in such a placid state of mind, to the instigation ol passion and perspiration in them, much less in our readers. Lxtraordiitttry ! The Federal Union, in one of its editorials oflast w eek, speaking ot •* the scheme of Reduction” a doptcdbytlic late Convention, says— “ It is fouuded on principles of generous conces sion and magnet i i.nous forbearance on the part of the strong, of enlightened justice, and of pure democra cy. It yields no southern principle, it hazards no southern interests.” Wc have placed the above extract from the Edi torial columns of the Federal Union, in our own to day- M e do this, as much for the purpose of ren* dering it matter of history, as to enquire where these “ principles of generous concession and mag nanimous forbearance” are to be found ? Wc con fess ourselves unable to appreciate that “generous concession” which takes from the majority of the people that portion of power which of right belongs to them. Wc may be dull and obtuse in this matter. Our optics may be dimmed too by the tear that half starts from our lid at contemplating this manifest depravi ty of our political adversaries—for w'e are philan thropic to a fault. Our school-boy lore has taught us, “ to err is human”—“ to forgive, divineand the course of tho Clark party, in the Convention, has sufficiently established their claim to this attribute of humanity. We have, however, pardoned their aberrations from the path of rectitude—a path, where, like Mahomet’s bridge to Heaven, the swerv ing of a hair’s breadth, proves fatal. Charitably disposed as we are, even to an enemy, we are wil ling to forbenr rebuking this “ flourish of trumpets” at the “ generous concession” we have experienced: but we feel it our duty to put our “ dubitatur” on this dogmatical assertion of the Federal Union. If such “ concessions” have been granted, it is well that wc should know it, that we may give “ credit whore credit is due!” As it is, we must cry with Ajax, “ Give me but light, and Ajax asks no more.” And if the Federal Union has the ability and incli nation, to spare us even a “ glimmering ” we take it without grumbling, and give our lhanks in return. Wc have not seen any of these •’generous conces sions !” Hut, we can readily see the “ magnani mous forbearance,” which the Federal Union says has been exhibited “on the part of the strong,” in the Convention. Truly, wc have fallen on strange times : A corrupt majority in a body, called toge ther to act for the good of the people at large, neg. lecting their instructions, abasing their trust, disre. garding the plain principles of equal representation, they were imperiously called upon to observe, and attempting to monopolize power in the handjiot the minority, for the benefit of the lew, and because they have not excluded their honest and patriotic oppo. rents from all share in the government, claiming to themselves the credit es a “ magnanimous for. bearance.” Magnanimous forbearance forsooth ! Stick a pin there. Why it reminds us of the “mag nanimous forbearance” of the Fox in the iiiblc, that retrained from luting oil the head of the Crane, when it was thrust in his mouth to extricate the bone from Ins throat. We would commend 'h< fable to the attentive perusal of the id.tor of 'he Federal 1 Union. DOMESTIC. From the Southern Recorder. VS lien we lake up our pen to shew the ine quality of the proposed plan of Reduction, concocted by the late Convention, vve are on ly at a loss to determine what particular in the wise and liberal scheme, to begin with. However, as the grand and distinguishing characteristic of our government consists in the equal participation of political privileges by its citizens, wc cannot perhaps, better shew how this (uudamental principle has been disregarded, than by contrasting some of the Senatorial Districts as constituted by the Con vention; and in order to w hich, we would ask the attention of our readers to the follow- I iug tables. r Hall and Jackson, vote 2,798 A are to have | s > 1 Senator.

CHEROKEE COUNCIL. (Agreeably to previous notice, a large num ber of the Cherokccs assembled at the Red Hill, on the Tennessee side of the Geoigia, on the 12th May. The object of the meet ing was to take into consideration, the pro 1 priety of accepting the oiler of tho General j Government, recently made them for their j claim to lands on this side of the Mississippi. The Council was generally attended upon tho I part of the intelligent portion of their people, j and very liberally attended hy the common 1 Indians. They remained in Council several : days, upon this all important subject, and have at length as we believe, contrary to their I own inclinations, and interests, permitted : themselves to be made the dupes of intrigue, kneeled at the shrine of treacherous rulers, and having been gulled out of their own opin ions, by the enchanting eloquence of John I Ross, they hare dispersed without agreeing to the proposition so liberal upon the part of : the General Government, and which, should have been by all means so very desirable to them. Wc understand that a large propor tion of those who took part in discussing the I reasonableness of the proposition, and the ! present and future interests, and welfare of j the Cherokees as a people, were in favor of I acceding to the proposition. Among the ud ! vocates for a speedy salr, and removal, were Ridge, Coody, Davis, Martin.

Yet from motives of personal accumulation, self aggrandizement, the fear of not receiving a ' large portion of (lie profits himself, ami per i j haps too, the probability of going out of ol i lice upon their removal; Mr. Ross with his , ingenuity, took the conclusion in debate, and I we suppose by his strong appeals to Ins court- J try men, and high-sounding epithets of abuse I upon the general government, and particn j larly upon Georgia; winding up with tho I usual call to the recollection of she solemn . j reflection; attending the departure of the | children, from the “ bones ol their fathers,” ! and then a .using the country West of the j Mississippi, lie solemnly avowed, if the na tion did consent to sell, that they would nc- I ver again be a united people, that they would j be scattered to the different extremities of the I glebe, and expressed his own determination m tiie result of an acquiescence upon the i part of his people to sell, to go forthwith to | Texas, where lie could find ail asylum with i out the jurisdictional lim ts of tho United States. By such like appeals to the sympa thies,- arousing ail the old buried prejudices j that ever ever existed; and stiring up tho i worst feelings upon the part of his audience towards the whites; that w hen the vote was taken upon his icsoluhou, disavowing any j intention to sell, the motion carried without j a dissenting voice. This result proves to ns the influence cf ’ office, and the great disposition upon the part of the governed, to fold their arms in hum . ble submission to the will of the Governor, and “come weal or woe,” tamely, gently and I quietly, give up rigiits with which nature liss endowed them ; and which man has not the right to gain-say. There is now left but one alternative that we can see, to suit the views, and meet the intercslsof our red brethren, or as we consider it, a large majority of them, j and that must be effected hy opening the roll for emigration, ami extending to such as wish it, the means of removal and settle nenl be yond the Mississippi. . Many we believe are j not only w illing to go, but are so reduced in j circumstances, as to render it almost obligato ry. The dire hand of poverty is crushing 1 them iu many parts of this country, and wo believe from our knowledge of Indian char i actor (in a savage state,) that the pinch of j hunger will soon counteract 1 lie impression j made by those of selfish motives, with all their strong appeals to arouse the sympathies, and engender the prejudice* of the ignorant, against their interests, and their only all. Wo believe that by opening the roll immediately, that many, very many, of the common In dians may be induced to remove within the i next six months, and that from the rapid m : crease of white population to this country, the remainder will discover the necessity of , going, or selling their claim to the country, and buying land and becoming citizens among : us. The follow ing- aiiocdoie contains more of hu-‘ monr i ban of truth, but it is perfectly in character. While Col. Crockett w as at Washington, with" his daughter, a young gentleman who had been paying his addresses to her, wrote to him reqnest j ing his permission that they might he married. ! The reply of the Col. was in the following la ■ conic style : IVushifigton, ; “ Dear Sir—l received your letter. Go ahead. DAVID CROCKETT.” <A’>- j Caution.—Lands in Texas. —Wc derm it a i duty to warn tiie unwary against purchasing fallacious and spurious scrip or pretended pa tents for land iu Texas. By the act of the Mexican government, all speculation, all transfers, all gambling in lands there arc ut terly excluded. Grantsare made to actual scttlcrß and to no other, who, after six years residence, receive a perfect title, and not sooner. To men with families a larger tmet is allowed than to single inen ; hut none can hold such property without residence and citizenship. A gentleman of the highest reapr (liability, recently arrived from Texas, has related to us many cases ol' gross fraud arid blind delu sion.—Sales of imaginary titles had been made hy sharpers to gentlemen in various parts of the United States—in Tennessee, in New York, and elsewhere ; and, credulous men who fancied themselves worth §160,000, found, on aniving iu Texas, that the lands were granted on certain conditions but never sold. I’lunged into despair, some of those dupes quitted that fine country in disgust, because they had been deceived in this! Every editor mid printer in the United States ought In denounce to the public such abominable deception. The hawkers of such patents might as well sell land in N'ota ZciiibU or in tin mown. -lent.
