exists among ns. Sir I cannot resist the' conviction
that our investigations as to our reserved rights,
should be conduced solely with the view to the as
certainment of truth, wo should net he alarmed a;
names, nor should we dread rejwoaeh, when umiH-r
--ited. 1 then Sir fee! myself warranted in the dec -
laration that the federal government, snot r».\!y
a eonfcdcrative government, nor it a consolidated
government, but Sir, a government retaining some
of the features of consolidation and confederation,
and therefore a government strictly com;unaided.
This is the view entertained hy the ablest
of the day, and it is obvious to me, that t man
that will took to the de l ct.» of the ol l cc.:.d racy,
and tlic reasons that induced the Stales to adopt Cf
present Constitution and the means tin. . !s v.u.f ;
the present government v.. a adopted, will at oik
discover that after the adoption of the constitution <*:
the United States, by the requisite number ot
of States, that th"y did from that moment be ot-li
the citizens of the Unite - States, whilst tliey were
still the inhabitants of their respective Stat-s so fe
as was essential to all the purposes ot a national
government. Under lives view of the question, 1
have supposed that two sovereignties, neither ol
which was perfect, but when combined, contained
necessarily every attribute of sovereignty, was at
the same time acting on me, and over my property,
the one by virtue of lb - retained powers ol the State,
the other by virtue of the Delegated powers to the
General Government. It i admitted that the pow
ers of sovereiglity may be divided, and it is known
that in our form of government they are divided.
And if so, it is ahsr.ru to say that perfect sovereignty
is cither to he looked tor in the governments ot the
State or the federal government. 1 have been in
duced to these remarks because Sir in the present
day, the States when spoken of in reference to the
General Government, are said lobe sovereign and
independent—a State Sir,that is sovereign & inde
pendent can know no superior. Such a State, with
in itself and independent of all other powers, has
the perfect right to the enjoyment and exercise of
all political rights, independent of all powers, and is
subject alone to the laws of nations —is such the
case with the States that form this union: no man
Sir, that is candid with himself, or the best interest
of this country can seriously entertain this opinion.
If Sir any thing further was necessary in support
of this view, independently of the high authority
that I could name, let cvtv man turn to that part
of the history of this country, commencing with our
colonial difficulties and ending with the adoption
of the Federal Constitution. You will find Sir that
the Federal Constitution was adopted by the pi* pie
of the States—l Jut Sir it is contended on some oc
casions that the g ncral government is a mere a
c.ent of the States, for the* purpose of executing
certain duties in a limited a:vl prescribed manner,
and that it is {incompatible with the character of
the agent, to be the sole judge of the extent of his
authority—and the conclusion is therefore drawn
that the constituent power must l c the proper au
thority for settling any difference that may arise be
tween the agent, and the power creating the agent.
However plausible abstract principles of this char
acter may be, it falls infinitely short, of an illustra
tionofthe (rue character of our government—and
Sir, in order to test the matter, wc will suppose an
agent invested with certain power.- , and those pow
ers made irrevocable. That the agent in the exer
cise of what lie supposed was his right, transcended
the authority vested in him in the opinion of the
power creating that agent.
Now sir, to shew how absurd and ridiculous the
general government would be, imagine an act per
formed by this agent, subject to the will of the con
stitutional power, do you not sir at once .perceive
the rights accruing to others by virtue of the net of
the Agent, would be subject to the e iprice of injus
tice of the creating power. How sir, and in what
way would the rights of those dealing with this
agent be secured; would there be any certain stand
ard or any fixed rule for settling disputes or eon
lestcd rights springing from and through this agent,
surely not—then sir, under this doctrine of the gen
eral agency, it must follow that the general govern
ment is the agent of all the states, how then will the
agent proceed with twenty four equally authoritive
powers, alike r sponsible to each,& each controlling
and directing at pleasure, and yet this is the charac
ter of the general government according to the new
theory of agency : yet 1 would not be unwilling for
the purpose of this argument to suppose that the
states have merely created, formed, and adopted an
ti"cnt known as the general government, and then
ask if it is possible for any man to believe that the
original thirteen states in the creation of this agent
did not among thomselves provide some means,
some plan by which their respective rights might be
preserved —and as their rights were equal, the ob
ject common in difficulties among’themselves,would
not this agent bo the most impartial arbiter,
the most disinterested authority for adjust
ing collisions. This agent must stand indifferent
between the parties, and therefore more likely
to act justly - . But Sir, I need not indulge in
further remarks in attempting to refute the idea that
the States are as independent communities acting in
concert merely by choice. Wc have a national go
vernment. a national name, an l character. We
have a written constitution operating alike upon
persons and things through the whole States. The
government is organized w ith three distinct depart
ments, each acting within its proper sphere. And
this government thus organized, is as much a go
vernment of the whole people of the United States,
as the government of a state is the government of
the people of that State—to each the subject owes
allegiance, just in the degree that is provided for by
the constitution?
As tlic attributes of sovereignty arc divided be
tween the States and the General Government just
in the same proportion is it the duty of all good sub
lets to respect and obey the respective govern
ments. But it is said they come in collision ; when
this is the case and no mode provided for under the
constitution for the adjustment, our only constitu
tional and peaceful remedy is in an amendment.—
I do not pretend to deny the right, that a single State,
may, a single man may have, to resist the oppres
sion of this government. But Sir, this oppression
must be plain, palpable and intolerable, that warants
tli! State or community to ri.-a sujit-i ior to all law,
and in the face of the worl I to resolve to he free or
die. This is the natural and inherent right of man,
nor is it possible by human laws to justly deprive
him of it. But before resort is made to this lasi
appeal, the brave, and just will fit 1 conscious that
though the fate of war may determine against tin m,
and that power may finally subdue tin m, yet before

dor the government of our fathers, yes Sir, we are
told that tlie day has come w hen our motto should
be first i.iiikktv and then imov. And what Sir, is
tlic character of our oppression ; taxation, upon fo
reign importation; oppressive and unjust as this
system is, founded upon motives disgraceful, to our
national character, and distinctive as 1 believe it is
to the inter ost of the South,' yet is the injury sufficient
to warrant us in meditating a death blow against
the union of these States. Sir, Ido declare in my
place, and I assert that I will resist by every con
stitutional means in my power the protective tnrilf.
i solemnly pledge myself that I never will yield iny
opposition until the tariff is reduced to the just re
quir. inents of the Govt ri.inent. Yet Ido as solemn- i
ly declare that*! will to the utmost of my power and
j ability preserve inviolate the constitution and union
;of those States. My motto shall belong, and pa
j tient suffering, looking steadfastly, to the virtue of the
’ whole American people, tlic w isdom and patriotism
| of our rulers, imtd all rational hope shall have van-
ished, ere 1 lake Inc la-t final and responsible step. —
But Sir, have we not some reason to indulge the be
lief, that we arc to he relieved of llic oppressive ta
riff, has not recent events brightened the hope that
our follow citizens of the Fast will abandon their
pn tensions to a system that must if continued, result
in the overthrow of the best government in the world.
Can it be possible that there has sprung up in tins
infant republic a national 'mtcrest that is to under
mine your constitution, alienate the affections of the
people ami finally prostrate the fond expectation and
confident' belief that man is capable of self govern
ment.
No Sir, there States, these happy people, with
all their prejudices were destined and must realize
a more exalted fate. Wc must by wise examples
tcacli our oppressors that though they may for a
season distract our councils,excite our feelings, nav
Sir, divide our earnings, that they shall not enslave
our patriotism, or drive us to a course that may
bring reproach on our character. No Mr. Presi
dent, we will rise superior to the avariec'ofour op
pressors, wc will disseminate the truth, we will not
declare that the late tariff litis increased our bur
thens, when honesty demands a different avowal.
Wc will not say a law passed by Congress, appro
ved of by our friend and exalted Chief Magistrate is
a plain and palpable violation of the constitution.
Yes, Mr. President, that venerable man A. Jackson
has not only distinguished himself on the field of
battle, but Sir he has carried with him into the dis
charge of the first,and proudest station in the world,
that pure republicanism, that has astonished his
friends and confounded his enemies. What name
has been'so sacred,.what spirit so bold, as to put
down the opposition that, we have seen raised against
the constitution for years. Sir it has been your
President. The very man who all true and genuine
States Right men, have claimed as their champion,
who has brought back tlic government in its most
important features to its original simplicity and pu
rity. This very man is now to stand eommited of
the weakness, and corruption of having apnroved
of an unconstitutional act. No Sir, your President
is a profound constitutional lawyer, his virtue and
patriotism, cannot be seduced, his moral courage
none ccn doubt. And yet Kir, he has approved of
the act of Congress under the solemnity of his oath
of office, which act wc are told, is indirect violation
of the constitution, is legalizing the plundering of
one half of our earnings, and the inevitable conse
quence of which is to enslave us&our posterity after
us. Do gentlemen l-elievc this to be our condition,
do they feel like slaves, or that they are robbed of
one half of tlieir just earnings. For my own part,
Mr President Ido not believe that wc are slaves,
or robbed as we have been represented by certain,
designing & ambitious politicians of tlie day. Our
revenue System 1 admit is unequal, and therefore in
its operation at variance with the spirit of the consti
tution, wliencvci any branch of American labour by
the operation of any law ofsystem of laws is pro
tected, I believe that precisely in proportion to that
protection is it a dram upon all other brandies of
labour. The policy of our government, the happi
ness of our people, and the durability of our institu
tions, must depend upon a liberal and just distribu
tion of the benefits and burthens of the government.
But Sir, let me assure gentlemen that the great body
of tlic people understand, ntid feel, and know tlieir
riglils—tliey arc not made of such stupid and clumsy
materials, as renders it important for certain great
men to stand by and act as .compters. No Sir it is
not the good of the people that stimulates some gen
tlemen to the gre ht cause of constitutional liber-
ty. It is AMBITION, DISAVrOINTED HOPES that UTgC
them on—and Kir what pretence more specious than
the good of the people- -all tyrants have so acted.
The greatest and most daring despots that have dis
graced human nature, have assumed to act for the
good of the people. It may be Sir, that gentlemen
may elevate themselves, but Sir I cannot but believe
if the hand of justice was seen in tlie ascension that
it would be a proud elevation between the Heav
ans and the Earth. But Mr. President by way of
compliment I suppose, we have heard much said a
bout submission and consolidation ; these are terms
of reproach that are intended for alarm. There is
no terror in such names without the proof, and when
I ask for evidence, what is ft, none can show that
the party that is now contending for the union, ever
advocated the doctrine of consolidation, none can
point to the act that has r.ot been in direct opposi
tion to the tariff' of protection. And yet Kir any
man who opposes the new doctrine of constitution
al revolution, must of necessity* be a friend of
the tariff and a consolidated form of government.
Gentlemen should pause before they range too far
in their denunciation, that though it is possible they
have lost all veneration so. tire names of distin
guished gentlemen with whom they have heretofore
acted, it comes with bad grace for tl cm to impugn
motives. The allusions that have been made in this
debate to our distmguishcd Senator in Congress (Mr.
F.) were as unexpected hy me, as 1 lielieve them to
he unjust. Ido not feel myself required to vindicate
his private character or political conduct—they are
lioth better known to ether gentlemen than myself,
hut Kir I might have indulged the expectation that
if the eloquence and wisdom of Mr. Forsyth has
censed to instruct honorable gentlemen in their du-
ty to their country, I hat the change so little credit
able to then;.selves would not have manifested itself
so repeatedly in this debate. For Mr. Fonsyth I
1 can only say that like a true patriot ho has put all
at stale, that is dear ton public man for the good of
his country, and I cannot hut believe that there is
yet indfp* tiden<*c ami virtue in the people of Geor
gia, sufficient to s ive sttclia man from the proscrip
tion with which lie is threatened. Kira lew words
more and I shall have closed. Gentlemen have
thought proper to ridicule the devotion, the friends
of Mr. I ’y nn’s resolutions have for the union, m
have been told that the pas.uwe of the substitute
eiiulif alone accomplish that object, As one of tin*
friend* oi tig* original rejefution-, 1 am willing to
pass rcrohitions for the call of a Federal Conven
tion—but I am unwilling that the proceedings of the
late Convention sjraitTd go forth to the American
people as expressive of the sentiments of the people
of Georgia, and in order to counteract this misrep
resentation of their views, I feel it my duty to sup
port the original resolutions—yes Kir, although 1
would not attempt to paint the horrid consequences
that will result from a seperation ol these States
after the picture drawn by* the honorable Senator
from Hancock—yet Sir I cannot bring my mind
to a solemn contemplation of this awful catastrophe
but with feelings of the most lively* emotion. Is
there one within my hearing whose blood does
not run cold, at that awful gloom that must shroud
this happy land, when tlie States of this union one
bv one, shall be erased from the bond of confed
eration who is there Sir that can told his arms and
close his eves against the dangerous billows that
are rolling on from the east, & threaten to deluge
the whole South. What man, that has the feelings
of a man that would not raise his voice —yea, Sir
invoke the aid of a just and merciful providence
to preserve those blessings inviolate, that has made
us happy at home and respectable abroad.— Be
lieve me Sir, come when it will, that the day when
these States separate, freedom perishes. Think ot
these matters as wc m ly, attribute them to motive
or to weakness, I am still firm in the belief, that dan
gcr is at hand, and that dtu* country, our glory, and
our liberties can only be preserved by a course mar
ked with moderation, wisdom, and virtue. For the
purpose of maintaining those sacred and inestimable
blessings, 1 have been induced to trespass some
what upon the patience of the Senate—for their in
dulgence and attention I return my thanks, trusting
that the action of the Senate upon the measures ..up
on your 'able—may rt suit in no small degree in pre
serving inviolate the free institutions of our common
country.

PROSPECTUS
of nn:
llavi kinsvillc Advocate.
*TMIE undersigned design, as early as a sufficient numi
“ of subscribers can be obtained to publish in g, e *r J ? r
of Hawkinsviile, I’ulaskiCounty,Georgia, apaper under fi"
above title. ■' - >f v**v
lii the whole Southern Circuit, although it extends ov
far more territory than any other in the State, there is **
printed a single paper, Surely this Circuit has not leaolwt
to be behind every otoer in the State, in the march „fi
provement! While,then, the citizens of every other C
cuit, have the pleasure of receiving by each mail, p 3pe ' lr
ted within their limits, may we not, with reason, indulged?"
sanguine expectation, that our citizens, as also those f
other Circuits, (to whose {papers they contribute a libe °t
patronage) will bountifully aid in the support of this atte *"
to establish u paper in thie place, and contribute muchtT
circulation.
Hawkinsviile has been so rapid in its growth, and I-,. i
ready risen to so much importance, in a Commercial p o j nt „ f
view, as now to render it the most important town i,i i
Southern l treuit. What place, then, could or w,„yV e
more suitable lor the establishing and supportinira pace l*"
It has bee-mo the fashion, of those who make proposal,
for ediliting a paper, to declare their political creed th ,
at 1 may know by their colours, on which side they’ Jo
light. The uu dersigned, without censuring such exiunpl
will follow it in part only. They, therefore, declare them
selves to be native Georgians,'and that while they deshm
to steer clear of extremes, they no less fervently hope to be
ever found on the side of the people, the true democracy
of the St te. Prudence might require them to stop here
but they feel constrained to go further.—The various and
momentous questions, which agitate to the very centre, our
political connexion as sovereign Stales, aid the fearful' en
croachments of the United States’ Government (more espe"-
cially as manifested by- the late decision of its supreme
Court,) which like some dreadful yawning gulph, threate
he most awful and ruinous consequences, demand’of cver'v
true patriot and advocate of his country, to beat his B0 «t
and like the faithful an, to tell when all’s well, or creiv
hope is past. With what disinterestedness and deep <l eV o
teiincss have not the Southern people ever been attached to
a just and equitable union of the State! How many con
cessions, ami what convincing sacrifices have il.ev not
made, and will tiny not even yet make, as peace* nfleriierj
upon the altar or social harmony ! But it has been justly
said, that a cold, calculating, selfish policy, like the Israel
ite’s rod,is swallowing up every better feeling, and eallmv
upon all to fall down and worship this “golden image,” a*
the only true and living Deity. Whatever may be the course
of others, while the undersigned truly hope, that rur excel
lent Constitution, our once happy Union, and the htn-h des
tiny to w hidi under happy auspices, it may aspire, will not
im rely live like some golden age, as a song in the memory
of posterity; they trust iti the fervor of their beats to be
found ever contributing their poor and bumble mile to resist
encroachment, in whatever shape it mav come, and op
pression under whatever colors disguised, ti 1 every hope
shall expire in the last entrenchment of their country. ’
Perhaps they ought to avow, their deep devotion to tho
political principles of Washington and Jefferson, and the un
blemished principles of all those who have been an orna
ment -and glory to their country ; and more especially theit
cordial and warm support of the Hero who has never dy
ing laurels, both in the field and in the Cabinet. But pro.
fcssii ns -alone are vain. The undersigned hope to be judged
of by their acts. As to the politics of the State, amid
chance or change, or the violence and beat of party dissen
tions, they faithfully promise with calmness and coolness, to
discuss the measures cfeach and every patty- in the spirit of
candor. And whether praise or censure be their object, tliev
will never follow any other light but that of truth—they
wil’ never have any other guide, but that of honor. With these
in view, they will hold as dust in lire ballancu any unjust or
unmeaning censure.
»No inconsiderable portion of their paper shall be devoted
to general literature, w ith w hatever may improve, adorn or
refine the mind ; and more especially to Agriculture; on the
successful iin-provemcut of which, freed from burdensome
taxatiod, mainly depend tire happiness, prosperityand glo
ry of the Southern country.
