The former outrages of the Kitch
en Cabinet and its .Ministers have had
for their motives either money specu
lations on a large scale, or jealousy and
vengeance towards men whose power and
influence made them politically feared.
The proceedings in the Alabama business
and the seizure of the Hank deposites,
were accounted for by their presumed
connexion respectively, with certain spec
ulations of the favorites of the palace : and
the Proclamation was aimed at a high
mark, being intended “to crush” Mr. Cal
houn and other eminent Nullifiers in South
Carolina. —The proceedings, however, a
gainst Lieut. Randolph aud the Editor of
tiic Richmond Whig arc pitiful in the ex
treme. It is evident that if not illegally
the formeris more harshly dealt with than
lie would have been, were there no spite
to be satisfied by his persecution ; and \vc
do not wonder at the indignation prevail
ing in Virginia,on the subject to such a ile
triee, that tears were -entertained that he
would he liberated from imprisonment by
j tircc — With regard to the Editor whom
the Alexandria Court presumed to arrest
for the purpose of dragging him out of
his State, to testily as to a conspiracy a
gainst the President, Executive malignity
has been foiled, (as it is becoming its fate
to be) —the Virginia Judge having Nulli
fied the arrest—declaring the same illegal,
and Mr. Pleasants to be discharged. The
General has fresh occasion daily to hate
Nullification : it will be the ruin of him,
none shape or another.— Chas. Mercury.

Favourable Symptoms.
The Pennsylvania Inquirer, some days
since, in ail article renting to the antici
pated proceeding of the next Congress,
contains the following paragraph :
“The Enforcement Bill will again con,,
up for discussion. We trust it may be
rescinded. It was quite an unnecessary
enactment, and was voted for by hun
dreds, because they thought it a matter of
very little importance. It has given great
oflence to the South, however, and they
complain warmly on the subject. Let it
he recalled, we say.”
The Pennsylvanian of same date, says,
that
The Enforcement Bill is a dead letter,
and that it would not be surprising ii
Congress should unanimously repeal it.
Let the Southern States take courage
from these givings out. They can only
maintain an influence in the Federal Gov
ernment, by unanimity, and if that be
brought about, they can bring the agency
at Washington to any terms they please,
founded upon reason and justice. But
without unanimity they must forever re
main impotent, owing to the vote oi a
nother. If Virginia, North Carolina,
South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama and
Mississippi, were unanimous, they would
command 50 votes out oi 210, the total
number in the House ol Representatives.
If divided by contending parties, they
might be destitute of all but a single vote,
and would, therefore, be powerless. M nl
liplicity of votes is only desirable, when
unanimity, or an approximation to it, ex
ists. Little Delaware might have more
influence in Congress, with her one mem
ber of the House, than the great State ol
New York with forty, il they were equal
ly divided.
Tlie Governor's Inaugural*
Extract of a letter, dated
Waynesboro, Nov. 24, 1833.
My Dear Sir :—The Superior Court
of this county has just closed its Session ;
and Burke is again in the ascendant. Her
Grand Jury, with a spirit and indepen
dence, which is the proper garb ol the
freemen, have, in language not to be mis
understood, expressed their indignation at
the uncalled for, ungentlemanly, and
cowardly attack of his Excellency, un
der color of Executive authority, upon a
large portion of the good people ol Geor
gia, for honestly entertaining, and lear
lessly expressing, political doctrines,
which they believe to be essential to
the permanency of the Union, upon the
principles of th# Constitution. The
political Doctors, of every description,
have become satisfied that the Lumpkini
ana Panacea, is inefficacious in this region
and climate, to tlie enre of the body poli
tic. Indeed almost all of them, upon con
sultation, have expressed the opinion, that
if it did not induce, it has been mainly in
strumental in increasing the alleged mala
dy. For my own part, il 1 could have
been surprised at any thing, coming from
Wilson Lumpkin I confess, the Inaugural
Address of bis Excellency would have
produced it; because, if he was ever any
thing, you and I know, that he has been a
•Vullijier : and every body knows, that he
is now a Consftlidationist, and that, there
fore, ho has pronounced upon himself, in
his denunciation of the citizens ol Georgia,
a double anathema. \V r e have, during
the Court week, formed a Sate Eights
Association in this County, in furtherance
of the proceedings of the recent State
Bights Meeting, at Milledgeville.
The proceedings of the Grand Jury,and
of the Association, will appear in a lew
days in the Chronicle. —Augusta Chron.
At a rcccit meeting, at Albany, the foi"

i he Post-Office Department. —Re-
lative to the rumored financial difficulties
o the Post-Office Department, and to the
alleged silence of the District papers on
tuat subject, the National Intelligencer,
as one ot the latter, makes the subjoined
remarks—to which we will merely add,
tiiat the report of a deficit is now pretty
generally credited
1 re reference to “the District papers,”
makes it necessary lor us, in order to
avoid the charge of affectation, to break
silence on the subject so far as to say, that
we have for some time heard rumors on
the subject of the financial condition of the
1 ost-Olhce, which did not in the least
surprise us, because \vc foresaw and pre
dicted it four years ago, as the conse
quence of the inexperience of the persons
appointed at the ouiset of the present ad
ministration, to succeed the well tried,
faithful, and capable agents who had so
long successfully administered the affairs
oi the Department. We believe that a
deficit may have occurred in the ways
and means ot that establishment, without
an\ impeachment of the integrity of the
Officers at the head of it, beyond their
having concealed it lrom the knowledge
of Congress, if they weie themselves
aware of it. After the rumors which
have been circulated, it cannot be doubt
ed that the subject will he fully examined
at the approaching Session of Congress.
It cannot he long, therefore, before all
doubt on the subject will be cleared up.—
VV e really hope tiiat the amount of defi
ciency in the funds of the Department will
be found to have been overnted by public
report, and that, whenever that may be,
it will he found not to have been caused
by a reckless use of them in rewarding
political friends.”
The New York American approves the
appointment of Bcnj. F. Butler of Albany,
as Attorney General of the United State's.
It “fears that .Mr. Butler may have been
tainted with die perilous sophistries of the
Virginia school; yet [it says] as those were
so signally set at nought anti overwhelming
ly crushed, by the doctrines of the Procla
mation,” &c.
Does the editor of lhe American know so
little of the Southern character, as to ima
give, that Gen. Jackson and Edward Livings
ton, or all the Presidents and Secretaries that
ever lived and ruled, could argue or intimi
date the Southern States out of their princi
ples ?—for we think that term may be applied
lo political opinions resting on deep rooted
conviction, entertained in all time, and forti
fied bv considerations of self defence and
self ex stence. Or does the Editor of the
American limit bis view to the .northern
bank of the Potomac?— Rich. Whig.

MOVEMENT OF TROOPS.
Wo learn, says the Baltimore American,
that in consequence of ordeqt rccei vcdjtere
hy express, on Wednesday afternon, from
Washington, two of our largest ships, the
Herald and Jane, liav* been chartered to
convey U. S. troops from Fortress Monroe to
Alabama, touching at Savannah on their way.
The ships are fitting out for that peculiar
service with all possible despatch, and will
sail the moment they are ready- Os the
causes which have led to this extraordinary
movement, we are not yet informed. Wheth
er the measure has been adopted as one of
mere precaution, or whether any new diffi
culty has arisen in reference to tnc arrange
ment of the Indian land question in Alabama,
which has called for the exhibition thereof
an increased armed force on the part of the
General Government, w ill probably be known
in a day or two.
EXTRACT FROM WASHINGTON.
“The topic of conversation is the article
from the Globe, attempting to show that the
embarrassmeuts in the money market lesult
from the oppressive conduct of the Bank, tor
getting, by the way, that the heavy loans they
charged the Bank with having made, was the
cause for considering the deposites unsafe
and withdjawingtheni. The deposites being
withdrawn, the Bank is compelled to de
crease their loans, call in their debts, arid
prepare for a general winding up. The
Kitchen Cabinet cannot preserve consisten
cy iri its attacks ; they take the deposites
from the Bank, and then complain of the scar
city of money resulting from their own
course. They charged Air. Biddle witii loan
ing money on the stock to serve his own in
terest, and then show that he holds no s.ock
lo be benelitted. In short, the article too
plainly shows that the storm so confidently
anticipated, by destroying the currency of
the country and the business facilities ol
merchants,"is about to overtake us and tiie
State Banks can afford no aid to Govern

The new Secretary of the Treasury is utter
ly unqualified, by former habits, to discharge

regretted that he must fall with tlie K. C.

if so, why do not the pet Banks present their
drafts on the Branch for fifteen hundred
thousand dollars, and loan that sum to mer
chants?
A stormy session is anticipated, the con

cabinet or the Cabinet proper shall be sus
tained by the nation; iftlie former triumphs,
then, Louis Ale Lane - and Lewis Cass, Iwoot
the most distinguished men in U

We republish to-day the address of Judge

which he was displaced as President of the

a character bv no means calculated to inspire
public confidence in the stability of this in
stitution. We cannot say how the fact is,
but if the means alleged lo have been used
by those who now have the conrol of the
Unit, wore iwod to accomplish their object,
(and we have no reason to doubt it,) we can
only say, the price at which they were obtain
ed can hardly be a compensation for the sac
rifice. We wouid not be misunderstood as
including in these remarks our respected
townsman, Gen. Sanford, we view him as in
capable of an act, to which any person would
justly take exception.
SIGNS OFJTHE TIMES. Tlie pro
ceedings of the State Rights’ Party at their
meeting in tlie State House, meet with cor
dial approbation in all quarters of the State.
In Burke county the suggestion of that meet
ing, that associations be formed in the differ
ent counties has been already acted on. We
have not room to extract the constitution
adopted by tiiat Association hut will be glad
to do so with tlie earliest opportunity. Their
Preamble is a masterly exposition of the true
history of tlie rise of our opponents: the
facts it contains are indisputable, and we
commend it to the perusal and tho preserva
tion of every patriot.
The State Rights’ association in Bihb coun
ty have also promptly met and approved the
proceedings of the State Rights party at their
meeting- One spirit now animates the party
throughout the State, and the principles of
Liberty for which we contend must and will
prevail. One word to our opponents in re
lation to a venerated patriot, whom they have
tlie effrontery to claim as “ coinciding witk
their views,” to use the expression of Gen.
Glascock on the floor of tiie House of Rep
resentatives in the debate on Mr. Cooper’s
Resolutions. We mean Gov. Troup. He
has already expressed his approbation of the
proceeding of tiiat meeting. If General
Glascock coincides with Governor Troup, it
is another evidence in addition to the quota
tion we furnished last week from the organ
of of tlie Consolidation Party, the Federal
Union, of the spread of Nullification.
FREEDOM OF SPEECH.—Mr. Cooper’s
resolutions which were the order of the day fur
last Thursday, came up on that day for discus
sion : On motion of -Mr. Bates of Hall, they
wetelaid on the table for the balance of the ses
sion. During the debate os Mr. Bates’ motion,
a point of order arose, to wit, whether on a mo
tion to lay the resolutions on the table, the
merits of the resolutions could be made the sub
ject matter of discussion. Col. Williamson who
occupies the chair, Mr. Glascock being on the
floor, decided that sucli discussion was in order;
the decision of the chair was appealed from and
the 1 louse nfused to sustain the decision.’.' !
The Union Democratic Republicans true to thei'
creed, refused to hear the principles of liberty
advocated in the very temple consecrated to ill
service. Like their prototypes of former days, '
tho “Alien and Sedition Law” men, they would
gag tlie mouths of freemen lest their imiignan.
complaints should not be couched in courtlv
phrases. One of the Speakers during the debate
appealed lo the gratitude of members for the
services rendered Georgia by General Jackson;
and asked if “they would inflict a pang on that
grey headed old man, by the passage of those
resolutions.” Is it come to this, that the prici
pies of liberty are discordant to the feelings o *
Gun. Jackson? The di-cussion ot the principles
upon which this Government is administered,
wound the feelings of him who has been rauked
next only to Washington. The complaints of a
free people that their authority delegated to pre
sume their rights has been used to sway them
with the Iron Rod of oppression, inflict a pang,
or p ant a thorn in the bosom of him who has
bee« styled tlie second fattier of his country. No-
General Jackson would indignantly take fiom
them the authority his name, did he know
lo w hat miserable and degraded uses il is ap
plied by that party. Admitting that he sanctions
the flagrant encroachments on the constitution
perpetrated under his name, must we, for his
former services, pre%i;t i#r liberties to the dead
ly stab aimed by his direction ? Is it a mitiga
tion of an injury, that a brotlre'rs arm has dealt
the blow ; or that tlie band of a benefactor who
has hitherto lavished his favors upon us, now
overwhelms us with distruction ? No, our in
dignation should he as much deeper is the
crime is mere unpardonable. From an enemy
we WF for danger, from a friend we anticipate
assistance and protection. If General Jackson
is the author and perpetrator of these violations
of our liberties of which we conpiain, we shall
not be tiie first to punish—even a benefactor.—
Manlius wlio of old rescued theca pi 10l from the
Jauls for his conspiracy against the rights of the
people and the liberties of his country was cast
headlong from the Tarpcian Rocks in sight of
the very place where he had gained a title to the
gratitude of his countrymen. The friends of
General Jackson, delight in bestow ing a Roman
title on him, let Roman history furuish him
with an instructive lesson.
Itis not with General Jackson's feelings, how
ever, that this matter has any thing to do.- and
his is the first time we dare say that such an
argument was ever addressed to the reason and
judgment of Legislators. For our part, we have
no disposition to avoid the discussion of any
question arising in politics, because we may
chance to wound someone's sensitiveness.-
The Nullifiers are not so selfish, so dead to their
country’s wcllfare as to barter its liberties fora
smile, or smother their indignation at oppresion
because its utterance may inflict a pang upon a
public officer, himself the instrument of its
tyranny. The argument had its weight, and all
discussion on the principles contained in the
resolution was effectually throttled for that time.
Our principles are not dependent on the grace
and favor of man ; they are abroad, and wherever
there is a bosom open to conviction, there will
they find a lodgement; wherever there is a
heart devoted to liberty, there will they have
their abiding place. It has become fashionable
among our political.adversaries to oppose the
tatismanic title of Union to every declaration of
a love of liberty, in their conception Union is
every thing, (i. e. they would have us believe
»u,) ItLorty \ot thievery Uninn would
t hey rend apart, scatter its dishonored fragments
to the winds, and plunge the corntry in intestine
war. We are not dealing is wild speculations,
we are laying before our readers the creed of this
amalgamated party who seek their confidence.
They have said they would dissolve the Un
ion, when oppressions became intolerable, but
it would be a revolutionary movement. Revo
lution implies revolt, rebellion from tlie yoke of
a superior power : and then in so glorious a
struggle to rid themselves of oppression, they
fight with the halter round their necks; subject
to be <•-..« rebels and traitors when they fall
into the power or ....... - rr mi,,,,
are advocates of liberty. Such freedom as they
inculcate, away with it: it is not congenial with
the soil of America. We too are advocates of
Union. The hallowed fabric of our liberties,
reared by the toil and the peril of our fathers,
we would preser. The hand of avarice has
been laid upon its front, we would removs it
The stealthy step of usurpation has been directed
towards its foundation, we would erect a barrier
to its further progress. We would restore it to
what our fathers made it, a Union of free
sovereign and independent States. If this is
beyond our power, wed. ill not bow our necks to
the yoke of any government in being, nor admit
that wears undutiful subjects in the act of re
bellion from our lawful superior. As citizens of
•an independent State, and acting under its au
thority we may set at defiance the scaffold and
the cord, and preser our liberties and our honor
from the grasp of tyranny. Yet with these as
our principles we are stigmatised as traitors and
torbidden to he heard in the Legislative councils
of the State. But why this reluctance to hear
what can be offered in extenuation of our trea
son ? If we are wrong in principle, the error
could sureiy be pointed out: & doubtless there are
many in our ranks who would cheerfully ac
knowledge their mistake, when it is clearly
shown. Truth fears no discussion, and ersor
does; that is the secret moving principle, that
prompts tlie majority to put a padlock os a free
men's mouth.

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
Satckdav, Nov. 30.
The House refused to reconsider the mo
tion of Mr. Bates of Hall of yesterday, lo
lay Mr. Cooper’s resolutions on the tabic.—
Yeas 59, Nays b 9.
Mr. Coo|ter laid on the table the following
Protest, which was read and ordered lo he
entered on the Journals, to wit:
W In reas, a Representative lrom tlie coun
ty of I'wtnain, did offer, for the consideration
of this Legislature, the following Preamble
and Resolutions, to wit;
Here follows the Resolutions.
Which are made the order of tlie day for
Thursday, the 28lh day of Nov. In as
much as we conceive them to lie respectful in
themselves, and introduced to express un
qualified disapprobation of the principles and
views contained in the President’s late Proc
lamation, toop|iose the Bill commonly called
the Force Bill, and to present what we be
lieve to lie the rights of tlie sovereign people
of tho Stales respectfully, and the powers of
the Federal branch of this Government, and
whereas, also, the principles contained in the
Resolutions arc those which wc believe best
calculated, when duly administered to secure
liberty and our own constitutional Union ,
that theirexhiliition and support at this time
was called for by the followingcireilinstances,
to u it:
Ist. They have been controverted and de
nounced us dangerous, traitorous in choracter
and tending to disunion and civil war, first
by the President of the United States and
then by the Executive of this State in his an
nual Message of this fear and also in hi3 In
augural Address.
2dly. They were discarded and trodden un
der foot hy the last Congress in tlie enact
rnciitof the odious Bill of Force.
And whereas, On the day assigned for
their consideration, an honorable member
from Hall county, moved to lay them on the
table for the balance of the session. On
which motion, the mover of the said preamble
and Resolutions, claimed the privilege of be
ing heard as to their purport, truth, motive
and tendency, which being accecded to him
by the decision of the Chair, the member from
Hall appealed from the decision of the Chair
to the House,on w hich Sppenl the majority of
the House did overrule said decision, and
thereby denied not only to the member from
Putnam, put to every other the privilege of
debate on the question they were required to
lay on the table.
Now, we the undersigned do enter this,
our solemn protest against the said decision
of the majority, and assign the following rea
sons, lo wit:
Ist. We do believe the matter proposed
for discussion does involve subjects of last
ing, momentous, vital and immediate inter
est to all the States, to the Southern States at
present, to our constituents, and to the peo
ple of Georgia particularly.
2d We believe tho assersion of the prin
ciples of the Resolutions imperiously de
manded by the circumstances under which
they have been demanded as aforesaid, as an
act of justice to them who believe and advo
cate them: that the good people of this and
the other States particulajly, may decide on
the propriety of such denunciations.
3d. Because by tlie decision of the major
ity al! discussion was put down, and the pri
vilege of expressing our opinions in behalf
of ourselves and those we represent, was de
nied, which we believe can only he rigid ful
ly done in cases where, hy the express rules
of this House, such privilege may have been
lestricted.
4th. Becansc there is no express rule, re
fusing tlie right of discussing in this case,
nor do we know of the like having been done
by the rules of any deliberative assembly
heretofore. In this case we think it was un
reasonable, unjust, and under existing cir
...mcruß-j., hi./hlv oppressive.

DIED, In this place, ou Tuesday the 19th
lust., Mr. Henry C. Byrum, in the 27th year
of his age. His remains were carried to the
burial ground in this town, on the succeeding
day, accompanied by a numerous and respectable
procession, including a large number of his
friends, fellow-citizens, ami many members of
the Legislature, now in session. The funeral
rites were performed by the Rev. Mr. Harrison,
Pastor of the Methodist Episcopal Church, with
a solemnity suited to tile occasion. A notice of
Mr. B’s. unexpected demise, was xeceived by his
affectionate mother, who resides in Hancock
county, soon after it occurred ; and on the suc
ceeding Friday his remains were disinterred and
deposited in life Family Cemetery in that county.
Byrom was a native Georgian, and possessed
all those high, honorable, ar.d perhaps too sensi
tive feelings, which mark the Southern charac
ter. He was the victim of an acute sensibility,
which honor and honesty too ofeti sacrificed al
their own hallowed shrine. In the language of
Gray’s beautiful eulogy, we may truly exclaim :
** Here rests his baud upon the lap of earth,
A youth lo fortune and to fame unknown,
Fair genius frown’d noton his humble birth,
But melancholy mark’d him for her own.
Lage was his bounty, and his soul sincere,
Heav'n did a recompense as largely send ;
He gave to Misery ait he had, a tear,
