U-der these cir cumstances, we hail wi h jay the recent meeting of the friends.o! Slate Rights in Aliiiedgovilie, as calculated to produce in the Republican r inks, harmony in coun sel, and concert in action, and to aid in ultimately restoring the Constitution of our country to its former purity, and the coun try itself to union and peace. .He it therefore resolved, That the exposi tion of the principles of the Republican party as set forth in the Preamble and Re solutions of the State Rights meeting, held in Milledgcville, on the 13th Xov 1833, meets our decideu and cordial ap probation. Resolved, That we will not cease to ex ert all honorable means for the advance ment of those principles, until our Govern ment is restored to that, healthful action, from which it has so widely departed.

Resolve I, That a Committee of three be appointed by the Chair, to nominate four Delegates to represent this meeting in accordance with the above resolution : whereupon, Henry Mealing, Holland Mc- Tyrc and Judge Wilde, were appointed that Committee; which Committee, after a few minutes consultation, nominated R.

The great objects in forming the Union were protection against foreign aggression, ami the regulation of our intercourse with foreign nations. W ith lew exceptions, ali Ihe other rights of independent government were reserved to the fit ales. The Constitution has secured, w ith the ut most caution to the istat s, tiic riffiri to man age their internal concerns, and the preser vation of th-.-t ugh! lias ever been deemed, as it undoubtedly is, indispensabie lo the liiHtlv and security of the people. *•{ recollect,” says Mr. JeC rson, “m> case wii-.-ro a-question »it»p’y hi la-, -v th citizens of ;no same State, a..* bt;*-« transferred to the foreign depart ment, except that of inhibiting tenders but of tttefahe hkiiicv, anil ex jvost facto legisia titvn.” The power to regtilato the conduct of our citizens, in their irifttcou.-se wdb each oth t r, to make l«us fur the gov.-rmoerit of their |>ersons,ami for the protection ami security of their lives,liberty properly amlreputation.have never bi-evi conceded, to tbe general gov-ni im at, bui were reserved to the States or io the people. Those constitute she essential feature of date sovereignty and independence, ro jeal ously (uurded when the Constitution was formed, and any attempt to intorfeie with them, beyond a fe-.v spcclfinl exceptions, shouid be regarded as an encroachment of dangerous tendency and subversive- ot tTn; ends and purposes of our free institutions. Take these powers fw**n inn States, and the rignt oi trial by jury, that inestimable heri tage ol freedom, tint invincible safe-guard of human liberty, would soon become an in convenient and a useless institution. In '.lie recent controversy w ith the Exccu. tive of tbe United States, I felt myself con strained to defend the rig! ts and to maintain the principles to which I have adverted, by the high an ! solemn obligations of effi''; tl duty; aid the r: l! cfo.i, th.it, as yet, tli;.*. objects have been accotnpi'shed, against ap pearances so imposm r, bv the peaceful n gency of -uir laws and o-ir courts,cannot fxiito inspire con hi Lpc" the permanency of the governmetil, and to o. tbe appr.-hensiens of those who hare stip -oseu 'k-.* it would it turnout a splendid but an u-iS'JCtkEefu.'- ‘X [icritnent.
