Resolved, I hat while we retain a grateful sense of the many great and valuable services ren-! dertid by Andrew Jackson, Esq. to the U. States,' we owe it to our country, and to our posterity, to ( make our solemn protest against many of the doc-! trines of his kite Proclamation. 2. Resolved, That Virginia” is, and of right ought I to he, a free,sovereign and independent State:” that! she became so by her own separate act, which has ! been since recognized by all the civilized world,and! has never been disavowed, retracted, or in any wise impaired or weakened by anv subsequent act of hers. 3. Resolved, 'l*hat whea, for purposes ofcommon defence art! common welfare. Virginia entered into! a strict league of amity and alliance with the other, twelve colonies of British North America, she part-] ed with no portion.of her sovereignty; Allhough,! front the necessity of the case, the authority to en-, force obedience thereto was, in certain cases and for certain purposes, delegated to the common agents of the whole confederacy. 4. Resolved. That Virginia lias never parted with the right to recall the authority so delegated, for good and sufficient cause, nor with the right to judge of the-Kiifficienoy of such cause, and to secede from the confederacy whensoever she shall find the benefits of Union exceeded by its evils. Union be ing the moans of semiring liberty and happiness, and not an end to which thoso should be sacrificed. | 5. Resolved, That the allegiance of the ]>coplc of; Virginia is to due to Iter—that to her their obedience j is due, while to them she owes protection against aIL the consequences of such obedience. f>. Resolved, That we have seen, with deep rc- j grot,that Andrew Jackson, Esq. President of tha U. j States, lias been influenced by designing counsellors] to Subserve the purposes of their own guilty am hi- j tion, to disavow the principles to. which he owed his] elevation to the Chief Alagistracy of the Government of the U. States, and to transfer his real friends and supporters, hound hand and loot, to. the tender mer cies of his and their bitterest enemies—the ultra. Fed eralists, ultra Bank, ultra Tariff'. ultra Imernal Im provement. ami Hartford Convention men. the ha bitual scoffers at State rights, andfto their instrument, the venal and prostituted press, by which they have endeavored and but too successfully to influence and mislead public opinion. 7. Resolved, That Virginia will be fourtd jicr own worst enemy, whenever she consents .to number among her friends those who are never tAtc to them ! selves, but when they are false to their.country. 8. Resolved, That we owe it to justice, while de nouncing the portentous combination between Gene ral Jackson, and the late unhallowed coalition of bis] and our enemies, to acquit them of any dereliction of j 1 principle, and to acknowledge that -they have hut act-, ed in l heir vocation. j 0.

Vinounti, Dee. 4, 1792. . Sir By toy friend, Col Taylor, whom I men tioned to you at Richmond. I have to thank vou for the two pamphlets presented me ; which 1 have read with attention and pleasure, perhaps for the most powerful of all reasons, that the sentiments in gene ral coincide with my own. ” * A moderate impost on imports and tonnage on vessels, may properly be made part of every fiscal system, and five per oent. seemed to have been fixed on as a standard of moderation by thegeneral consent of America—but the object should be merely reven ue, unmixed with other purposes : so that if sumptu ary Jaw* or other projects are to be tried, let it be bv other detached laws to stand or fall by themselves; and let not the imposts be expected to answer all governmental purposes however extensive; for that , would be ruinous to trade and of couyse to the citi : zens, and they would lie insensible of it, not knowing j they pmd the tax. although they did so. with large increase. No, let them at least feel this increased burthen, and thov will then inquire of their repre sentatives why it is laid, and how the m. neyis dis posed of, as they ought to do. Raws which inter fere in the private employment of citizens, and en courage one kind at the expense of others hv pre miums, bounties or prohibitions, are as impolitic as unjust; they violate private rights not ceded to so | diety. and fetter occupations ns well as barter of the 1 produce of labour ; lioth of which succeed best, when left free to the will and contracts of those concerned. ! It is a fallacious argument indeed, that the agricul | tural interest is benefitted by opening one new mar- I ket for their produce and snpplie*, when the acquisi tion is made, by means tending to exclude all com ! petition, ifcgive a monopoly in both to the new agent —and is the effect ol those laws, the weight of which fall upon tillage; whereas when manufactures* arc. lelt to grow out of tiie natural order of things, the v j f; ome to the agricultural market as new competitors, | upon equal or hotter terms ; and until they can af ; ford to do so without the aid of premiums, it is bdt- J ter for them and ho community too, that they should j remain in tilling the earth. 1 cannot conceive any | reasoning, however specious, which is less solid, than j a kind 1 have frequently met with; “that the whole price paid for imported article, which might he made ; here is lost to the community," which is fully refu ted by a familiar case put to prove it: Ais a farmer * who has produce to barter for necessaries ; a foreign er oilers to allow him £lO for- hisproduce and to | furnish the articles he wants at £B. Bis a ncighbor ! ing manufacturer who wants and will allow A for ; the produce, the £lO, but must have £lO for the ne- cessaries in exchange, either for want of skill or in dustry in his business—for want of proper hands or instruments to carry it on—or most probably from the superior value of labor employed in husbandry to that of the other. If A barters with B, how is the £8 saved to the community ? Is it not obvious that trade with a foreigner would have entitled A to a balance of 40s. in cash, clear gain tojjhim and the j community too, (who are as a body only* interested | in the balances paid or received in cash in foreign, I trade.) Now if the legislature add a tax upon the necessaries, of 40s. to prevent the foreigner from un derselling B, they not only improperly intermeddle with the private dealings of A and B, but in mlain English tax A 40s. a year to's&Vfc B from loss, for he I gains nothing, having laid out thh stlm in increased ( expenses. Is this just, or consistent with tiie equal . rights of both 7 or for the interest of society 7 by no : means; lei both alone, and B will either improve his system so as to save his. -10s. withotit loss to A or take up -Vs occupation and gain 40s and add that sum also to the gain of tiie community.
