confess that wo h ire been surprised „t the course
pursued by his Excellency: from ;ne firm and

the ditf.cn Ity bi-uvtva the .State of Alabama and
ti,e General Government, we were inelinad i<;
believe that he rii-tir.ct!y ttndeti:i v. ,--t
consisted the “essential feature of hit ite ISov'

the tact, that “ the regulation of the conduct cf

political faith, they have amused "ami edified
iheir hearers with learned disquisitions on the
caters and origin of sovereignty. They have
been sadly puzzled, however, to assign the re

winters, and to w hom the hand of time has been
less prodigal in the bestowment of that wisdom,
which is presumed to he, the enoowmeut of his
lapsing lustres, na-y well pan e before we haz
ard our opinions, \hen they are lost in doubt.—
Yet there is a property peculiar to truth, that can
amply supply the deficiency of years. Wo feel
that we are based on principles, whose correctness
admits of no dispute ; we know that wo advo-
Mle a doctrine that waits not for the sanction of
party power, and *ve as,rare our readers that our
theory of the government under which v.e live
seeks not tlte alliance of personal popularity to
stamp it on the hearts of men. It is with a due
humility, therefore, not as to the truth of our
doetriw# but as to cor ability in illustrating its
principles that wears tempted cast our modicum
of light on a subject of so much speculation.—
We avail ourselves of the candor of our advei
•otieß in admitting “ that wlieu the sowreivity
ol the States is established, u.e right to nullify
follows as a natural cob sequence. To copy the
phraseology of their Orators “ prove that the
States are free, sovereign and independent, and
we eduilt that the doctrine of Nunification is
correct: ora* they have clhmvis* phraaed it,
"prove that each S»iuU>i*a perfect and ttadiwiu
ished sovereignty, and the theory cf the Nulli
fiers is true.” Whatever may have been the •on
fnlence, with v.liich these hoa.ifnl challenges
were uttered, we apprehend it will he wufully
diminlahed, when these apparently abstruse po
tiboue are clearly demonstrated.
h iv a far ef**i,-i task to prove tho truth of the
positions thus denied by the Union - irty, hercu
lean a it may seem to tht-tn, than it would be :
prove the patriotism or political honesty of its
ladders. The three propositions we have stated,
upon whose establish men t rests the as'ent of the
Union patty to the daeuhie of Nullificatieu, era
hraoe ia reality but one idea, to u>ii, tl.s freedom,
sovereignly end independence cf the .States. .To
this point, therefore, we shall address ourselves.

T# this Declaration the Slate of Georgia »f,
party ; and we are ‘proud to say, site gallantly
otiouined the stand assumed for her by her Kcp

freedom and ittdopcislenee of the State of Georgia
was then solemnly affirmed by the State herself:
and the Representatives who made the assertion
did so on tha authmity delegated to them by the
sovereignty of the Stats. Now what is sover

esnteud that the agent is passessed of the sover-
Cigu power, when th® very agency implies a re
sponsibility. We think we hive dearly shewn
thtt the people of the State of Georgia were
ever at least, free, sever; ign, independent; and
if the S:ate of Georgia ever to, the same
rationingvrili apply to all tho other State* sepa
rately,and they too were unci free, sovereign and

people f the. State of Georgia were sovereign;

ut Wtemeula h ive been nailed to the eounier as

11. of H. lie denounces the remarks of Mr. Alford
as “ weak and dints*” —“out of the way and

opposite rank.- and overwhelmed some of t*»e
•t.e.- with coiifusion ; even the indurated *ub
• :«wae of “ Pettcrs clay” could not withstand
the •* fizzing.” Bit this correspondent adds
“ that Gen. Glascock gave the gentleman from

of tnc gunllt-iusn s remarks, it would tn-ve beet*
tnoro kfir Mr. Correspondent if yog nad given

stead of rely mg upon tlte ipse dixit of an inter

writhed under Mr. A’s. lash.
in his account of the debate in the Senate this
correspondent, after spitting his spleen at the
Senator fropi Chatham, which his constituents
kin,w now to understand, and will doubtless pro
perly appreciate the motives of this worthy cor
respondent, he proceeds to bedaub Mr. Towns,

The Rev. Mr. Olia, whose eminent quail,
fictitious were universally acknowledged, was
the erst gontleniau btlongi.-g to the Alctho
dist Church who was honored with n chair in
the College. At Ins first election, ant! sub.
s qnently nt his re-eb clion, lie v. as Ftrenu

whose literary pretension*' were confessedly
far inferior to his otvn.
A hen a Professorship of Languages was
establish'd, the Baptist denomination, with
great unanimity, recommended the Rev. Mr.
Shannon, a Baptist minister, to the olfiee.
His eminent qualifications were overlooked
in favor of a IVcsk-ytenan, whose claims wt n
•. very way itifetior. The voice of public
seutiment annulled the election, and Air.
thanuoii was subsequeutly uptioiuted. At
he recent election fora Professor of Rhcto

Ib-thodi.-t Charrth, distinguished for all thr
lifts me! atluinniruts which ccttld entitle liin.
la I he office, was defeated by another Presby
terian, whose naiue was almost unknown m
Georgia. Still another Presbyter.an, Iroiu a
broad, was elected Tutor over the iiov. Mr.
Hillyer, a highly respectable Baptist minis
ter, a good scholar, and an (-x|M riencetl teach
' r, a graduate of Frauklm College, and a t.a
tive son of Georgia.
Tho only objection alleged against Judge
Longstrcot was, that he was a nttlltficr: vet
iir. Pressly,the successful candidate, brought
letters to at least one member of the Board of
Trustees, from the politicians of South Caro
lina, stating that he too was a nullitii r. Mr.
Hillyer, however, was well known as a
Union matt. From all ibis it is evident that
politics by uo means constituted tim test oi
election.
The Faculty of Franklin College now con

on that account the less a grievous injustice,
which demands a prompt and efficient retie

to the Trustees, was certainly never confined
