THE CLARK PARTY vs. GEN. JACK
SON.—The tariff*of 1833, is declared by a reso
lution of the Clark parly to be “the result of
political combination, without regard to the in
terests of the people : and our Senators and Rep
resentatives iu Congress are requested as their
first and highest duty to exert all their talents
aid influence in effecting a speedy reduction of
the tariff*to a fair and uniform revenue standard.
Gen. Jackson, says he “ cannot recommend any
alteration in the present tariffTof dmies.”
Gen. Jackson occupies a large "portion of his
Message in denouncing the U. S. Hank. It is
generally known that one of the Editors of the
organ »f that parly, is in favor of that Bank, and
regretted that the President vetoed the Bill enact
ing its recharter.
The Clark party approve the Proclamation and
I orce Bill. Gen. Jackson found it necessary to
inform his friends that they had mistaken the
purport of that paper.
The Clark party have evinced their hostility to
the Tariff*act passed at the last session of Con
gress, and base their opposition to it on the
ground that it was a compromise, lien, jacirsotr
says, for that very reason it should he retained
unless it is found to produce more than the ne
cessities of the Government requre. It is much
to he deplored by the Clark party, that their
*great meeting’ was got up before the President’s
message arrived, because they might have so
modified their resolutions as not to conflict with
’lie opinions of Gen. Jackson, and they mignt
have spared themselves the aw kwardness of in
structing their Representatives, to wit: Mr.
Forsyth, ei id omne g nus" to oppose themselves
to the views and feelings of the President.
THE FEDERAL BASIS. —The memory of
the ree« nt struggle, for the preservation of our
constitution is still young in the minds of our
readers. We need not reca'l to their recollection
how signally the project of the convention, to
•trike the Federal Basis from the constitution,
was sealed with the reprobation of the people of
Georgia. The Rati Iters quailed before the ver
diitof lhat jury to whom they had appealed to
sanction their policy : w e were disposed to par
don their err is, and hoped for amendment as
"e las ituneinent. They are at work again, and
their favorite scheme of prostrating the Stale of
Georgia at the fool ts the Emancipators hi the
north is still obstinately pursued. Thrice leave
they assaulted the Federal Basis, in the Legi i••
tire, thrice has the manly opposition "I* the
Patriots of the State Rights Party driven them
from their purpose. On Friday last when the
hill to sell the public hands was under considera
tion, Mr. Bates of Hall moved “ thut the printed*
lie diitriinited according to the white population m
humeral counties of the . State. The Clark party
were afraid to record the ayes and noes on the
question, at least so we infer, for vvlieu it was
about lobe put to iheW-st, the motion was with
drawn. In the Senate these clamorous Ratifiers
have laid on the table Dr. Daniel's Bill to call a
Convention to reduce and equalize the legisla
ture, and a committee evading the object fur
which they were appointed, havo proposed to
submit to tli6 people the question w hich should
be the Basis of Representation. As if the peo
ple had not alriady declared their will on this
question. Any thing however, that will gain
• ime for them will receive their support. Jt hill
is now pending to apportion the funds of the
Central Bank among the several counties in the
State on the “ White Basis" plan. We merely
mention this, that the Southern section of the
State may see huw grossly they have been duped
by the Clark party. Promises and allurements
were held out to them, to join the ranks of titeif
ancient foes, and when they have been misled
and deceived by such arts, their interests arc
disregarded. The Clark party have mounted on
(he backs of these deluded men to the summit of
power, they now scornfully spuru from them the
means by which they asceuded. They have
used them like asteol, to serve for a stepping

w hen its services are no longer wanted. That
they will not be much benefmed by the proposed
c lange, we need not argue : for every man cin
perceive that as the ratio of distribution decrea
ses the funds distributed decreases too. If this
Bill is passed with a knowledge of the injury it
will cause to the interests of ti, e Southern sec
tion of the State; we must say that the Clark
men are not as anxious to rclats tlu ir friends as
they were to gain them; if it becomes a Law by
the votes of those who are ignorant of the effect tt
will have, u adds another to the thousand and
'me instances of ll.eir unfitness to control tlm
affairs ol a free people. These movements how
ever are only feelers thrown out to ascertain
w ith w hat probable success they may proceed to
abolish the Federal Ba.-is altogetner. If thev
can place a greater amount of the people’s money
in the hands of a few, they have a greater chance
Ofpurchsstng power will, it, ultimately to change
the b-.«. of Representation altogether; and when
it is fairly expunged from the State consti..„i on ,
w e presume the next step w ill ho to erase it from
me constitution of the United States. Last
summer they were active to effect a reduction of
the Legislature, now they oppose the measure.
Were they sincere then or are they sincere now?
Political consistency appears to he unknown in
their vocabulary.
THE CREED OF THE CLARK UNION
PAR 1 \ .—Sometime since we met with the de
claration that the State Rights’ party were ene
niies to State Rights. This notable Hi iCoVt . r
was ushered forth to the people of Georgia
through the columns of **,e Federal Union. 0 !.
11 mujer ol *\t circumstances he a matter
sane Cariosity to sift the pretensions of that
h r ,| i to sit in judgment on the motives and
principles of tne disciples of Liberty. He that
is without sin amoifg ye let him east the first
stone, was the biting sarcasm pronounced to the
crafty and over-zealous. W e commend the
moral to their comprehension. It is not w ith this
declaration, the offspring of a luxuriant fancy,
that we have to contend; we let the invention
pass for what is worth: but the claim has been
setup by that paper, and by the new Union
party whose organ it professes to be, that they
are the only exclusive State Rights’men ! Truly
their facility in changing front is something of
the marvellous ! Wc remember not long since,
not many years ago, they were the exclusive
-idurns men, then they became the exclusive Jack
son men, si.ortly afterwards they dubblcd lliem
selv i the exclusive Union men, and now they
assume to be the exclusive State Bights' men. If
this adroitness in political gymnastics increases
with time, they will before long, turn a somerset
in the very centre of the Nullifying ranks and
claim to be the exclusive uullifiers of the Slate
of Georgia. Their doctrine of State Rights
mus 4be a novel theory indeed. How bitterly
so ever they may revile a doctrine that presents
a remedy when the Rights of a State is invaded,
a doubt of their State Rights principles we pre
sume is groundless and invidious. Their ora
tors have denied the lovcreignty of the States;
and are they too State Rights men! Their
party have repudiated by its vote on Mr.Cooper’s
motion to insert the word “ respectively," the
separate independence of the State of Georgia:
that is doubtless another specimen of «hoir
State Rights principles ! Some of their leading
advocates contend that sovereignty resides with
tl.e amending power, to wit, three fourths of the
States; that is to say that three fourths of the
States are free sovereign and independent, and
nteuwTCT c a. J- r r ——, J
yet they claim to be State Rights men! With
this w ide misunderstanding existing among lh*
•leaders' the ‘rank and file’ claim to be battling
for the rights of the States. It may be so ; but
after all, we believe, the fact is, they do nol
really understand the principles they seek t« in.
culcate. If.they will pardon us who are not so
deep iu the secrets of that party as to be con
sidered one of the indoctrinated, and whose only
opportunity of ju ging their principles is from
their acts, we thtak we could give a brief
but correct abstract ol* that doctrine which seems
"to puzzle its disciples so sadly. We can com
prise their whole theory iu one word, Office. —
This is the most charitable construction we
can place oti their course as a party.
They have, in their resolutions denounced the
doctrine of Nullification as a • w ild heresy,’ not
withstanding ills bused on principles that ad
nut the States have Rights which should not
ne infringed. Themselves the Advocates of
.•late Rights they refused to recognise the inde
, cadence of the State of Georgia, iu the very
iceth of a resolution passed by a previous Legis
lature Hi these words :
•• Resulted, Inal the Slate ol Georgia will
never so far eompromit her sovereignty as an
independent State. us to become a party to the
case sought to he made before the Supreme
v.ourt of the. United States by the writ in qties
liuii.”
They seem to have forgotten too, that in the
year ladß, the State of Georgia deliberately iu
formed the other States, turough her own Legis
lature, “that (tu speaking of the Revolution in
■.he remonstrance to the Anti-Tariff* States.)
Providence hallowed the undertaking, and victo
ry sealed the triumph, and each of us was ac
knowledged as a//et sovereign and Independent
Stute."
Not content with asserting themselves to be
advancing the principles of State Rights, they
nave thought proper to seek the sanction of Mr.
Madison’s name fur their creed. In the resolu
tions adopted by the ’great Clark meeting' as it
is properly styled by our colemporary of the
Journal, they have affirmed that they “shall also
follow and forever maintain , the doctrines of Mr.
Madison as expounded by himself." The doc
trines preached by Mr. Madison are llius openly
declared to he the articles of their creed. Their
faith is thus distinctly pinned on Mr. Madison's
sleeve. We will favor them with a specimen ol
Mr. Madison’s doctrines, end if llioy can recon
cile it with the doctrine of Stale Rights, it is
more than wc can dc. Mr. Madison iu bis speech
in tlio Federal Couveuiiun, lays down his very
remarkable theory of Stale Bights in the follow
ing word*:
w Some contend lhat the Statu are sovereign,
when in fact they sre only political eueulus.--
Tliere is a gradation of power iu all eueuuee
front Urn loweet corporation to the. k'gh'-T ***
ereign. The States never possessed the essen
tial Rights of sovereignty. These wore always
vested in Congress. Their voting as States in
Congress is uo evidence of sovereignty. Tne
States ought to be placed under the control of the
General Government, at least us much to as t hey
formerly wc-c under the King awl British Parlia
ment ’ fl"
That is certainly as pretty an exposition sf
State Rights as one would wish to meet with.
Will they hereafter, with these the acts of the
Slate of Georgia staring them in the face deny
the sovereignty of the State! Will they con-
Ironted by these tl|eir professions from their own
lips, maintain that they arc advocating the
sovereignty of the State ? \Ye trust lor the honor
of human nature they will recaul their errors; ii
they will not do this, we hope for the sake of
political consistency, they will adopt one of the
two courses they are vainly endeavoring to
straddle, and pursue it perseveringiy hereafter.—
The people will reward them according to their
merits.
VIOLATION of THE CONS riTUTION.
We have to record a most glaring disregard of
the provisions of our Btate Constitution by ttie
Governor. We knew that the party of which
he assumes to he a prominent member, had lono
ago evinced their r ntemptof parchment restric
tions, and paper limitations, by llieir bold duff
ance of the provisions of the Constitution of the
United States; hut we never dreamed they would
think of laying violont hands in the State Con
“’.tuliyu, and in a summary manner abrogate
its enactments. This is the second act of the
drama opened in May last, by the majority iu the
Red. ction Convention. They then attempted to
seduce the people into the measure of destroying
their constitution, having failed there, they have
resolved to lake the matter into llu-ir ow n hands.
The Constitution of the Slate of Georgia pro
vides in the following manner for the
of laws.
“ Everv bill shall be rend three times, and on
three separate days, in each branch of tin- general
assembly, before it shall pass, unless in cases ol ac
tual invasion or insurrection ; nor shall any law or
ordinance, pass containing any matter diffkrunt
FROM WHAT IS KXFRESSF D U Tile TITI.E THEREOF."
Gov. Lumpkin on Monday relumed his assent
to the Bill establishing anew circuit in the fol
lowing message.
In communicating to the Senate n\ assf.xt io
the act, which originated in that Branch of the Ge
neral Assembly emitleu an act to form ami organ
ize out of the Chatahochie, Flint and ' herokee cir
suits, * new Judicial Circuit, to be enutUd tne
Coweta Circuit and also to attach the counties
ol Baker and Early of the outlnm Circuit to
the i hatahooclice circuit, ami that they form
a part of said circuit, and also to appoini the time
of holding the Superior and Inferior Courts ol both
circuits, and to alter the time of holding the > ourts
in t e counties of Lowndes, Thomas and Decatur.
I would beg leave to suggest that die Tixt.x of said
act be revised, by striking therefrom the words
“ and inferior,” and thereby make the title and the
body correspond.”
Thus admitting the unconstitutionalily of the
act, he nevertheless approves it! When it was
his duty to veto it. It is said lhat the Governor
acted with legal advice on the subject. This
learned doctor of the law ought not to remain iu
obscurity.
Jas. Troup, Charles M. Coopper, James Holmes,
Jas. -Smith and VVm.Frazier, were elected on Sat
urday last. Directors of the Darien Bank on the
part of the State. Feter G. Stuck, John If. orell
were also elected Directors of the Planters’ Bank.

Mr. ChappellN Iteinluiiont
The resolutions of Mr. Chappell; defi
ning our Federal Relations, denouncin';
the principles of the Proclamation, and
demanding the repeal of the Force Hill, as
inconsistent with the Constitution of the
United States and the rights of the States,
have been rejected by the Senate, and
the substitute of Mr. Raster, depriving
the States of all the essentials ot sove
reignly, and recognizing utter subservien
cy to the Federal Government, has been
adopted.
These resolutions are now submitted
to the consideration ol the people. They
are said to contain principles dangerous
to the liberties of the country, and to have
been introduced and supported by “dema
goguoc u«.llu(u to o> oinirmv xho’rmtwn rk s
of the Constitution.” This is the hypo
critical cant of the day,—to the intelli
gence of the people they are submitted,
and a enneid perusal of them solicited,
and we then will put the question, if there
is a sentiment advanced in the original re
solutions, which the most zealous patriot
would reject, as dangerous to the liberties
ot hi® country,or a principle advanced
in the least at vanning „:.i. ,j.„ n . nsl p riJ ,
bevotion to the Constitution of the Uni
ted States, and the Union of tl.e States,
and which in better days, under Troup,
would not have been responded to with
acclamation. However stirprising thc
jection of such principles, on the part of
onr Legislature, may appear abroad, to
till acquainted with the wretched system
of misrule that characterizes the adminis
tration of our affairs, this and every other
measure ofabsnrditv has ceased to he n
mhttcr of wonderment. The proceeding
is of a piece with the character of the
present dominant party;—alwpps more
dis|)osed to enhance the [towers of tly pres
ent dominant party :—always more dis
posed to enhance the powers, of the Fed
eral Government, than to preserve those
belonging to the States, tlu ir designs
have been artfully suppressed while pub
lic sentiment and public virtue were a
gainst them, until the popularity rtf a des
pot chief aflordcd them a shield for the
promulgation of their doctrines. Georgia,
democratic Georgia, lias heretofore been
an ungenia! clinic lor the growth of Fcd
cra'ism, hut the potential head of the Gen.
Covm'nt.has,with the mystic influence of a
Genii, thrown his magical wand over our
borders, and a change for a time has been
cllectcd. The fiat of President Jackson
has been submissively received, his Pro
clamation applauded, his bloody Force
Bill approved, and the glory of Georgia
lias for a season departed.
.Wc can imagine wiih what cordial and
gratulatorv feelings of brotherhood, this
conversion of Georgia will he hailed b\
the ultra Federalists of the North ; their
joy cart only he exceeded by their sur
prise at the wonderful change. What !
they will say,can that stubborn and slill
neckcd race, whose adhorcaiicc to vvliat
they call the principles of democracy, has
been provCT'bial for fifty seven years, be
come regenerated ? H ell does General
Jackson deserve the hosannas that arc
bestowed upon him, for his powers arc
scarcely less than miraculous.

rjNUE anxiety to bring into activity lh« talent
a. of the country, induced the Publishers of
the NOVELIST’S MAGAZINE to offer a Pre
mium of FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS for
the best Novel, on a National subject, for that
Publication. But by the Report of the Com
mittee, which is subjoined, the Manuscripts sub
mitted to their perusal,-are not of that character
which would warrant the award of that Premi
um. The time is therefore extended. ,as is alto

'The undersigned, a Committee selected for
that purpose, have examined a number of Manu
script Novels, offered as cumpetilwrs for a Pre

Til ERF) is no country which, for the time es
its civilized' and polities! existence, offers so
wide and uulroden a field fur the enterprize of
the Novelist as this —and it is, not alone the in
terest, but the doty of those who possess mind
for the task, to occupy the field of competition,
and thus probably establish his own reputation,
and promote that of his country. Independent
of the national inducement, the attention of the
literary aspirant is directed to the following:—
In order to assist in advancing American Lit
erature, and give the readers of the Novelist’s
Magazine a share in the advantage of meriiori
00s talent, which the country possesses, the Pub
lishers of that work, satisfied that the best way
to promote talent is to reward it, offer a Premi
um of
«7,'.0 TO THE AUTHOR
Os the best •Yorel*
lJpou a National subject—to be preseuled o»
or before the first rs April, 1834.
This premium will he awarded by a chosen
Committee; and the successful Work will be
printed in handsome book-tbrin, corresponding
with the best London Editioos of popu ar Nov
els, in order that ih„ iamiu., of its iHililiealiom
may correspond with the merit of the Anther.—
'Thecompetitor for the Premium will understand
that, in addition to the ibEVEN HUNDRED
and FIFTY DOLLARS, he will be entitled te
F'lliy Dollars for every thousand copies of the work
which may be sold, during the cununuatioa es the
copy-wright, or FIVF) DOLLARS for every
hundred; which, whenconmctent talent is exer
cised on the work, is not unlikely to produce *
fair remuneration.
'The manuscript for competition must be deliv
ered by the first of April, under an envelope, ad

companied by a scaled letter cotemnnicattug the
