THE TARIFF—NULLIFICATION, THE COMPROMISE The time has now come, when we may speak of the Tariff, of Nullification and the Compro mise, not as subjects of momentary excitement, but as matters of history. When we may view j them calmly, and calculate their effects upon j the people, their institutions and interests, with absolute and unerring certaintv. It is well known to every citiz.m who has I marked the progress of political events for five or six years past, that the doctrine of millifica ! tion had its origin in the reckless and unchas i tuned ambition of a single individual, and one | too, who had done inorc to introduce and fasten | upon the country, an onerous and unconstitu tional system of taxation, than any man in the United States. The efforts ofMr. Calhoun in 181 G, to esta blish, as the policy of the government, a system j of high protecting duties, are well known to the • American people, and the success of his mca ; sures nt that time, laid tho foundation of all the evils which have since flowed from that system; and we hazard nothing when we aisert, that if his premature movements in relation to the pre sidency, had been realized, his views of the ta i iff world have remained unchanged, and the sound of nullification would have never been heard. But lie hailed too soon—the public 1 mind was pre-occupied with othei names, and he was doomed to that disappointment which i in the effervesence of his untamable passions, I has arrayed him against the government, and the Union. For some time after Gen. Jackson’s first elec tion, Mr. Calhoun's prospects of succeeding him fto tilts Presidency, were very flattering, and un -1 til the dt.-alnsure,- by M-, Crawford, in THE STANbA II 1) 0F UNION • regard to the course pursued by Mr. Calhoun as ! a member of Mr. -Monroe’s cabinet upon the subject of the Seminole war, he was every day gaining upon the co.nfidence of the people; but ■is soon as these facts were made known, and he was called on by General Jackson for an ex planation, than “ Ae crie l havoc, an I slip the (lot>s of war ; and from that hour, he arrayed himself against the administration—renounced tile principles which he had open! v professed,and denounced the very acts which he had done. But thepopul irityof the administration was so dee|> ly rooted, audits measures so universally appro bated by the people,that there remained to him no hope of success, in open, honest, manly war fare, and hij last hope rested upon some great and extraordinary excitement. About that time, t.ue injustice and oppression oftlie tariff, which had grown up under die pro- I feeling arm of Mr. Calhoun, became so mani-I fest to the people of the south, th -tone general ! murmur pervaded ail ranks of society. Public! meetings were held, and resolutions adopted in all quarters, demanding of Congress, in firm and temperate language, the repeal of a system which was bringing down ruin upon the southern people, Mr. Calhoun availing himself of the state of southern feeling upon this sub-1 ject, threw a somerset over his former princi- ' pies, denounced the tariffas a mast flagrant out- j rage upon the rights of th people, and raised the banner of nullification as “the rightful rem edy”—the great political panacea which was to correct the errors of the government, and re store the people to the enjoyment of their vio lated rights. South Carolina was made the thea tre oftlte fa’st greatdtama.and accordingly mee tings were called—dinners were prepared—har angues were delivered—and in a few months the State was on the verge of a mighty explosion. A convention was held, an ordinance was pass ed, and plans and arrangements organized for the new and untried experiment. Areduction of the tariff, to a fair revenue standard was made the “sine qnanon”of their proceedings, and the first day of February 1833 was the made limit. On that day, according to the ordinance of her convention, South Carolina had resolved to go out of the union, unless such reduction should before that time be made in tho tariff duties. But before the day arrived, Mr. Calhoun, as if startled at the impending consequences of his own ill advised motwur js, proposed to Mr. Clay the then head oftlie protective system, a com promise, and accordingly, the present compro mise tariff was adopted, and the ordinance sus pended. The compromise was hailed ’as a j gaeat triumph, particularly by the nullifiers of! South Carolina, and many an honest citizen! whose mind had been inflamed by the orators j of the day, took it for granted that the year of Jubilee had come, and that the necessaries, the ! aomforts and luxuries of life, were to be laid j down at his doer, fora song. They became instantly reconciled to the system, and with thz appendagj of compromise to the tariff, have quietly borne its burdens from that day to this, notwithstanding they have been all the time paying as high and higher prices for arti cles of consumption as they had done before. And such are the effects of nullification upon the tariff; and it is lamentable to know, that at the very moment of this compromise, the public mind was undergoing a rapid, salutary change upon the subject, and but fur the injudicious compromise of Mr. Calhoun, tho whole system would have Jieen overturned at the ensuing ses sion. Snch a result was inevitable, and we have the words of Mr. Clay to prove it. But no argument is wanting, to prove the pernicious effects of the compromise tariff upon the institutiuns-of the country, or of its ui-pust and burdensome character upon the .people. Under its operation, within a few short vears, between thirty and forty millions of dollars have been dragged from the pockets of the pmefle, over and above tho writs of the government, ! which is now about to bo returned to the States, ■as a sort of expiation for the injustice of’.is col lection. > XX’assnch a course of measures cvercontem- • plated by the great and good men who laid the foundation of our republican institutions? No! it never was intendedlhat the general govern ment should raise revenue for the States nor to draw one surplus dollar from the pockets of the people. The establishment of such a prin ciple would overset the whole machinery of our political institutions; destroy the sovereignty and independence of the State, and ultimately merge the whole, in one consolidated empire; anti yet, the first step towards a consumation so full of evil to our country and so repugnant to tbc spirit of liberty, haslicep. made by John C. Calhoun of South Carolina. It is time for the people to look danger in the face—fo express their fixed and unalterable hostility to a measure, which cajoled them at first, and cheats them at last.—To demand with one Voice, the repeal of taxes which are not re quired by the General Government, but which are accumulated merely forthe purpose of sub sidizing the State governments, and of breaking down and destroying their political influence. The thirty or forty millions of surplus reve nue now in the coffers of the nation belong to the people and slamld have remained in their pockets. It is so much withdrawn from its rightful owners, which can never reach their tiockets again; and they are required on by any principle of justice, to call for spied v and efficient reformation. If they acquiesce, their burdens will increase. —lt will become a settled principle, and taxa tion in every form will be resorted to, to swell the distributions to the States. Thetariff will be increasad, and those who a little while ago, were ready to dissolve the government to throw it off, *”111 become its warmest advocates. But the people will speak in language that cannot be misunderstood. The subject under consideration, affoids the most striking illustration of the views and prin ciples of Mr. Calhoun, and prove him beyond doubt, to be one of the most dangerous states men our country has produced. He first sup ported the tariff, and its friends are largely in debted to him for its success. He 11(!Xt opposed it with so much violence, as to threaten the safe ty of the Uttion—gpfl Justly hg compromised upon a basis which has continued its burdens' at the expense of the people, and stripped them of thirty or forty millions of dollars. Who can follow such a man and feel safe? Who can be lieve in nullification and take him for a model. In conclusion, we put it to the sober sense of every citizen, what has been gained by nullifica tion? The answer is plain. XX’o have gained nothing, ami lost much. Instead of repealing the tai iff, it has been fastened upon us for years, and perhaps forever, when a course of firm and temperate measures would long since have re duced it to a proper standard; and that is the ! result of a compromise produced by nullifica-I tion; a compromise which has taken from the people, more than thirty millions of dollars, and for which, they have no adequate redress. Will any man pretend that goods are cheap er than they wore four years ago? We think not. Northern fabrics are much higher.—-Su gar, Iron, Steel, Hats, Shoes, Blankets &c. &,c. j maintain their former prices; bread and meat I are constantly’ advancing, and so far as we are able to judge, times are getting worse with purchasers. If goods are as high now as they were in 1831—-2 and nullification is the only ofjicient > remedy, it is time another dose was administered. XX r e may be asked, why it is, that we are still ringing the charges upon nullification? XVe answer, because we believe it proper to direct the public mind to its progress and final results upon the affairs of the country, and to shew the people from its own history, its unfortunate and pernicious tendency. It is proper too, that the measures of Gener al Jackson’s administration should be held up in comparison with the principles and meas ures of those who have been his bitterest oppo nents. His public life is hastes'ng to its close. Passing from the bustle and termoil of political contest, his name and his deeds will soon belong to history; and then it will be that bis country men, looking with calmness and composure upon his public life, will do jusficb to his mem ory; and, in contrasting his services and his principles with those of the Calhouns and Mob sters, and Clays, and the host who have follow ed their train, will pass a unanimous verdict in favor of “THE MAN, XX'IIO HAS FILL ED THE MEASURE OF HIS COUNTRY’S GLORY.” THE SURPLUS REVENUE. XVe expressed in our last, our-decided appro bation of the course pursued by the Legislature, in regard to the disposition of the Surplus Rev enue. Upon this subject, we have entertained but one opinion from the time the act of Congress was p issed to deposit this fund in tho State ! Treasuries. We said then, and repeat it now, j that the best disposition which Georgia could ! make of the amount coming into her Treasury, ( would be to place it in the Central Bank, and! by that institution be loaned out at a moderate i rate of interest to bur citizen*. She has taken ! that course, a a.l nodoabt remains upon ottrmind, j but that it will bo very generally approved bv i the people. By what other mode, coal .1 tho people-gener- j ally, hiva derived any use or benefit of this ! enormous amount of money? In none, that we can imagine. It could nut bo rightfully applied h) the purposes of Internal Improvement, be cause it does not belong to the State, and if re ceived at all, it must be taken in strict accord ance with tho act of Congress. That act, it is well known, m ikes the State Treas tries the mere depositories of the fund, and expressly re quire! it to be returned to tho General Govern ment, whenever it shall be demanded ; and tho act authorizing its reception, fully recognizes that principle. In that view of tho question, the Legislature could not, and did not pretend to claim it as a portion of her own capital, nor to invest it in any of her contemplated public works. She might have left it in tho Treasury, it is true, to slumber and sleep for an agb, but such an act, would have been so decide llv at variance with the clearest principles of political economy, that it requires no argument to prove its absurdity. It would at once be locking up •o much of the circulating medium of the coun try, and diminishing in a corresponding ratio, the profits of diose who Use money. XVhnt next ? It might havb been loaned to the other banks—and for whose benefit? Why, for the benefit of the stockholders of those institu tions, thereby giving them, a still more uncon trolable influence over the monetary affairs of the country than they already enjoy—-and strength ening and extendingtho spirit of speculation, and concentrating ‘its power and its profits in the hands of a few. Some have suggested the policy of loaning it to Rail Road Companies, to enable them to prosecute their various undertakings wi h great er promptitude and more certain success; but insuperable objections present themselves to this mode. It the money is to be loaned at all, one citizen has as much right to claim the use of a j portion of it as another, an 1 the poor man who can secure the payment of three or five hundred dollars, is as in i di entitled to it, as the wealthy capitalist who chooses to invest, his funds in rail road or bank stock. The money camo from all the people, and it should be so managed as to en able the largest number to enjoy its benefits, and there is no existing plan, nor has there been one suggested within our knowledge, so well cal culated to accomplish this great principle ot jus tice and equity, as that afforded through the agency of ths Central Bank. It is true, that nv.ich has been said of its cor ruption, as well as tho dangerous influence upon , the minds&. actions of inin, but we have sought I in vain for the evidence. Session after session have its a airs been scrutinized bv the Legisla ture, during the ascendancy of different parties, an I yet it stan is firm in the p iblic cotifi lencc. At tho Lite section, we are inform? 1, its affairs were examined m ist scrupulously. Neither time nor labor were spired, to search out and bring to light all tint was calculate 1 to ex’nbit the Bank in its real attitude, andjwhat wa s fbc result? Tho proceedings of the Legislature will answer the question. After the lato investigition, wo did hope the subject wis at rest, an.l that tho Bank would | move on in its ordinary channel. We !i tjttvar corvudqfej (he R.mk, a polit- ical machine—-,ve did not so consider it at the timo its charter was passed and the idea of con necting the Executive oftlie State, with that in-, stitntion, is to us. wholly incomprehensible. XX hat has the Governor to do With the Bank? Heappoints its Directors, takes their bonds and qualifies them in terms of the law, and wlien ( that is done their responsibilities are at hn t*nd ’ "itii that branch of tliri G.-ivm-iiment. The? then stand amenable to the Legishu re.—They report to the Legislator.-—-the Bank is examhi ed by t _• Legislature, and that is the only prop ci trionnal to pass sentence upon their acts. ' But it the Governor is in league with the Bank, to subvert tbc public morals, and to effect a deleterious influence over the public mind—if he has made it an instrument to wrong the hum blest citizen, of the fullest and freest exercise of his personal or political rights, let the proof come forth and wew.ll abandon him. $ j far as we know or believe, he lias po connexion with the Bank, further than the law has imposed du ties upon him in tho appointment of officers—- and if we are deceived, the evidence to the con trary will undeceive us. If such connexion ex ists, the people should know it. Let the speci fications be made, and the proof forthcoming, and the people will render a righteous judg ment. ADDB.ESS OF THE CARniERS OF THE of UmioK, Another year, with varying scenes, has shed Its lights and shadows round the patriots head. War, war with France the gathering clouds portend, Those clouds have passed, and France is still our friend— The savage foeman raised his dismal yell, While many a freemau by Ins rifle fell. But Georgia’s sons, with hearts of steel, were there To hunt the savage foeman in his lair— Nor scorching smi/uor quaggy swamp impedes The nbble daring of his lofty deeds, Till broken—vanquished--he was forced to roam. And seek the western prairies for a home.— The savage Spaniard too has bared the knife For deeds of blood, and worse than murderous strife. Ilis heart of stone ungenerous pulse can feel— The captive falls beweatii bis reckless steel ! But vengeance waits thee, Mouster! Fanning’s blood Shall ope tho sluice for many a crimson flood. Norslambcrs justice—Righteous Heaven has sped Its bolt of vengeance on tliy guilty head ! Ln ! o i Jacinto’s plain thy legions lie . Gold, stiff in death—and thou compelled to fly.

Where art thou now ? Compelled to beg release, And parcllise p trdoiiby inglorious peace ! Proud Santa Alina bends tlie captive knee And Texas’ sons and Texiau soil are free! • And civic wars, with paper balls, h ive raged. Which freedom’s sous with freedom’s sous have i waged. j The batik—the bank—the mon.tbY br.uk that i vied To putdowh ’Jackson— -that old lltnk has died. ’ Ah, myoid Hero! ’Twas a glorious hit, I -Fof, many a son of panic died with it.

But let that pass, and let the steam car come, With flying banners and the sound of drum, Till towering mount tins meet the soa -girt share, And western precincts join with Ocean’s store. Hail, mighty' project! Lend my muse a wing. Thats’ie with lofty strains thy praise indy sing. On wings of Jteam my rapid thoughts would fly. And mingle eastern with the western sky. Hail to thee.
