FROM THE SIAMLAND GAZETTE. Dxlrcci from a Letter of .Mr. Thomas Paine , to a Lady on her .Marriage . [NOT BEFORE PUBLISHED.] “ I very affectionately congratulate Mr. an Mrs- on their happy marriage, and even branch of the families allied by the connexion; and I request my fair correspondent to present me to her partner, and to say, that he has ob tained on of the highest prizes in the wheel. Besides the pleasure which your letters gives me,to hear you are all well and happy, it relieves roe from a sensation not easy to he dismissed; and if you will excuse a few dull thoughts for obtruding themselves in a congratulatory letter, I will tell you what it s. When 1 see my fe male friends drop off by matrimony, I am sensi ble* of something, that afflicts me like a loss, in spite of all app araneos of joy. 1 cannot help mixing the sincere compliment of regret with that of congratulation. It appears as if I had outlived or lost a friend; it seems to me as if the origi nal was no more, and that which she is changed ; to, forsakes the circle, and forgets the scenes ol'l former society. Felicities and cares supenoi j to those she forre.eily cared for, create to her a now landscape of life,that excluds thelittle friend- | ships of the past. It is not every lady’s mind ! that is sufficiently capacious to prevent those j greater objects crowding outthe less, or that can; spare thought to former friendships,after she has: given her ban ; an i heart to the man thatjoves her, ! But the sentiments your letter contains, have j pr> vented tftese dull ideas from mixing with the j congratulations I present you, and it, is so con genial with the enlarged opinion I have always so: med of you, that at the same time I read with pleasure, l read it with pride, be< a use it convin c s me 1 have some j idgment in that most diffi cult science; a lady’s tnind. Most sincerely do I wish you all the good that heaven can bless you with, an as you have in your own family an example of domestic happiness, you are already j in the knowledge of obtaining it. That no’ condition we can enjoy is an exemption from * care; that some shade will mingle itself with the brightest sunshine of life; that even our affect ions may become the instruments ot our sor rows;that the sweet felicities of home depend on . good temper as well as good sense; and that I there is always sometmng to forgive even in our I nearest and dearest friends, which though too obv ous to be told, ought never to be forgotten, and L know you will not esteem iny friendship impressing them on you Though l appear a sort of wanderer, the mar ried state has not a sineercr friend than I am; it is the harbour of human life, and it is with res pect to the things of this world, what the next world is to this, it is home, and this one word conveys more than any other can express. For a few years we may glide along the tide of youth ful single life, and be wonderfully delighted; but it is a tide that flows but on e, and what is still worse, it ebbs faster than it flows, and leaves many a hapless voyager aground. lam one, you see, that have experienced the fate I am describing. I have lost my tide; it passed by, while every thought of my heart was on the wing for the salvation of my dear America; and I have now, as contentedly as I can, made my self a little bower of willows on the shore, that has the solitary resemblance of a house. Should I ..lways continue the tenant of this bower, I hope my female acquaintance will ever remem ber that it contains not the churlish enemy of their sex; not the cold insen-ible hearted mortal; not the capricious tempered oddity, but one of the best and most affectionate of their friends. A thousand years hence, (for Imust indulge a few thoughts,) perhaps in less, Ameri< a may be what England now is! The innocence of her character that wou the hearts of all nations in her favour, may sound like a romance, and her inimitable virtue, as if it had never been. The ruins of that liberty wmch thousands bled for, or suffered to obtain, may just furnish materials for a village tale, or extoit a sigh from rustic sensibility, while the fashionables of that day, enveloped in dissipation, shall deride the prin ciple aud denv the fact. When we contemplate the fall of-Empires, and the extinction of the nations of the ancient world, we see but liHle elso to excite our regret, than the mouldering ruins of pompous palaces, inagniticent monu ments, and walls and towers of the most eo.-tly workmanship. But when the empire of Am r ica shaft fall, the subject for contemplative sor row shall be infinitely greater than crumbli.ig brass or marble can inspire. It will not then be said, here stood a temple of vast antiqmy, here rose a Babel of invisible height or there a palace of sumptuous extravagance, hut hero ! ah ! painful thought! the noblest work of human wisdom, the grandest scene ofhuman glory, toe fair cause of freedom, rose and fell. The odd Family. —ln the reign of William 111. there ltvedin Ipswich, in Suffolk, a family which, from the number of peculiarities belonging to i., wu= distinguished by the name of the Odd Fau* ihj. Every event, whetiier good or bad, hap pened to this family on an odd day of the month, end every oue of them had something odd in Ids or her person, manner, and behaviour : the very letters in their Christian names always hap pened to be an odd number. The husband’s name was Peter, and the wife’s llahah; they had seven children, all boys; viz. Solomon, Ro £.er, Jame3, Matthew, Jonas, and Ezekiel. The husband bud but one leg, his wife but one arm. Solomon was born blind of the left eye, and itoger lust his right eye by an accident; Jam-s had his left car pulled ofl'by a boy in a !irr<'!. find v&s born with onlv throe fingcis on his right hand; Jonas had a stump loot,and David was hump-backed; all these ex cept David, w : ere remarkably short, while Eze kiel was six feet two inches high at the ago ot nineteen ; the stump footed Jonas and the hump backed David got wives of fortune, but no girls would listen to the addresses ot the n- t. Ihe husband’s hair was as black as jet, and the “ ife s remarkably white, yet every oncot the childrens was red. The husband had the peculiar mi-- fortune of falling into a deep saw-pit, w here he was starved to death in the year 1701, and his wife refusing all kind of sustenance, died in five da vs after him. In the year 1703 Fzekiel en listed as a gr< nadier. anti although he was after wards wounded in twenty three places, on the same day, in 1713; and Solomon and Ezekiel were drowned together in crossing the T hames m the year 1723. ,1 Parly .Man.— An article in the W abash Mercury furnishes the following faithful portrait ■1 a thorough party or collar man : “ He uses an argument not because it is cor rect, hut because it is put into his mouth by the powers that he : He adopts an idea, not be cause it is good, hut because it is adopted by the President: He advocates a measure, not because it will be for the good of the country, but because i* will be for the good of the party, lie is a mere machine—he acts only as he is acted upon.

Johnson, re-elected. —• ■— One of the few arguments as below stated, urged be fore the people in favor of Ratification, is, that Georgia is the only state which yields a constitutional recognition of the Federal Basis, in her system of representation, and therefore it should be abandoned. Georgia, (excepting perhaps, Tennessee and is Ihe only state that recognises the right and principle office and univer sal sub'age. If negro property is representated, which adds to of counties not imlivUlw's, it is also (axed; and this tax, by which the income of the coun ties is increased in proportion to the number of its blacks, creates a fund, which but for this source of re venue, must come directly from its free white citizens. The present system therefore, so far from giving to the licit more political influence than ihe poor,actually gives to the poorman more influence as a citizen of the county, in which such negroes are held, while it also gives him tile benefit of the rich man’s tax u|K>n these same negroes. IFe subjoin the following remarks from the Georma Times of the sth instant: “ It has been said, that the expenses of the Legislature will he reduced, but, wcarc not told how the reduction will operate to our benefit. True there may be individu als who may profit by ihe ratification of the propose amendment, hut the injury to the {date is incalculable. Wcbave seen it advanceii as an uigument, that Georgia is the only Southern State that has retained the Federal Basis in the Const lulio.i. This is partly true. So Geor gia is the only S’oulhcrn State where the tight of suffrage is universal. Av'e may be mistaken, hut we believe it to be.. ic only Stale in the Union where every free t oldie cit izen is entitled to a voice in its domestic councils. Those who have hitherto repudiated Ihe fedeiul basis, have sub stituted initsplaci ,areprc: enlaiiou based on taxation and foyvtm’iui. In such states, a citizen must own a certain amount of property, before he is entitled to the right ol su.Jiige. Ift.icn the peopleof Gcorgiaarc alive to their t own interest, they must reject this olisprmg of corruption : anrl pa y management, and stamp upon its miscreant I front, die broad mark of their own indignant reprobation. If they are awake to the inter* sis ol the whole South,they will most surely refuse to be the dupes of party intrigue , and with Ihe desperation of Sampson, hurl down on t.icir own heads the fabric, ulthough it may crush their enemies in its fall.

The Penitentiary. —The party opposed lo ns, once succeeded it making *he continu ance of the Penitentiary system, to a very con siderable extent, a party question.—“ ’ own with the Penitentiary”! was the rallyiug cry; and straitway the hobby was mounted; all the usual means were put in requisition, and tickets were issued from some of the printing offices, vve have been told—they know which ; -am. industrious ly dispersed, having on them, the above or some such like catch words. Well! the scheme took for the time; no doubt netting a. handsome profit to the purpose tor which it was intended; and the Penitentiary code was actually repealed; leaving the State in u condition that challenged the pity and symputhy of every State in the Union. The people how ever soon saw how they had been misled; and, the eiror having done, its ofiice, there was no further occasion for it; and so all chimed in lor a reinstatement, retailers, leaders, editors and all; —some ol these la-t apologizing aukardly enough.—We are often asked how stood Mr. Lumpkin on that occasion. Was he for or against the Penitentiary ? We do not know. We only know that he was heartily for it when the tide had turned in its favor. He may have been so previously. Now that all is over, we may ask with some allowable pride, which were in the right! Ex perience has already answered. We all know the fearful extent to which the crimes not pun ishable in the Penitentiary—murder tor instance —have lately increased in frequency. W hile such as are thus punishable, are as signally di minished in number. This we thing is nearly as notorious as the Mher fact; but we have it al so from gentlemen who attend the circuits. FOR THE WESTERN HERALD. TO THE VOTERS OF HALL COUNTY. When a fatal blow is aimed at the pririledges and liberties of freemen, it is the duty of every centinel on the watch tower of libertv, to pro claim “ what of the night;” to warn the people of the impending danger.and to admonish them, in terms fired with a holy zeal for liberty, how to avert the danger of the stroke. It is to your hands, Freemen of llall, a highly respectable portion of the body politic,that these liberties are committed, will you then in this enlightened age, abusesyour stewardship,and deliver into the hands ol your children, a government wor.-e than that secured by the blood of your Fathers ? Forbid it Heaven ! forbid it every manly, hon orable aud republican feeling. Under a solemn conviction that such a stroke is now aimed; at your liberties, by the proposed alteration to your Constitution; it is my purpose to show you the gross inequality of this altera tion, and thereby place in your bands weapons for your defence, that you may be enabled to avert the evil, or seal your destinies with open eyes. In the formation of the present constitution,! the framers seem not to have looked forward to the present populous state of the country; but to have adopted it to the then situation of the state; in doing which,they have imposed on vou the present inequality of representation, and the important duty ot amending the sacred instru ment. To each of the counties (all ol which were then very thinly inhabited,) they gave a senator and representative ; hence when some of the counties became much more densely popu lated then others, their influence was no greater in the senate, than a county having the smallest, population, and they were very unequally repre sented in the lower house. Toremi dy this evil, and to reduce theexpenses of legislation to the amount of taxes paid into ! the treasury; a convention has been called, for i the purpose of amending the constitution so as 1 to produce equality ol representation throughout j the state- They iiuv me , ‘no have laid before you their acts for ratification or rejection. If they have effected the object of their calling, they have done nobly, and it will be your duty to rati fy; but if on the contrary you should he convinced that instead of relieving you from the evils of'j which you complain, they have proposed a| greater; it wjll be your duty, as you reverence the deeds of your fathers—as you revere the name ol liberty— and as you would perpetuate vour own and your children’s dearo t rights and priviledges, to endorse on your tickets no Rati li-ation. In order to reduce and equalize the senate, thev have divided the state into senatorial dis tricts; and have made of Hall and Jackson, one district, having a population of 17,911 free whites; and of Stewart and Sumpter counties, another having a population of 1,371 free whites; thereby placing 13 of the hardy, intelligent free white citizens of Hall and Jackson, on an equality with one man among the frog ponds ol Stewart and Sumpter, and to place you on an equality with the free whites of Stewart and Sumpter, and you have in Hall and Jackson,the enoimuus number of 16,540 free whites not represented in the senate. In the other branch their system is equally objectionable; you freemen of Hall, are now entitled to four Representatives, they propose lo give you three. You have a population of 11,- 177 free whites, the county of Wayne has 667 free whites, and they have given her one; now place yourselves on an equality with the citizens of Wayne, and there w ill be 10,570 of you re presented only by two members in the lower house; whereas if you were placed on an equality with the people of Wayne,you would be entitled to 17 representatives instead of three. These freeman of Hall,are only a few of the objections to this infamous project for altering your con stitution. Can you or will you suffer yourselves, by endorsing on your tickets ratification,to sub vert your liberties and prove recreant to the principles of 76 ? Instead of reducing the expenses of the I le gislature to tue demand of the people, they have only reduced it $2*4,000, and call aloud to the poor man to ratify and he will save $20,000. In reply to this I will add, that the poor man w ill save four cents in his poll tax, and give up, per haps forever, his liberties into the hands ot those who will not estore them.’ For by this plan you give the minority of the people the majority of representation in the Legislature. For 62 counties having a population of 131,000 free whites, have 75 members; while 27 counties having 181,600 free whites, have 69 members only. But the advocates of the system very cun ningly tell you to ratify this, and next year you can have another Convention and reduce the expenses more,and be more equally represented. But do you not know that these 62 senate coun ties, having 131,000 free whites, will send 75 members to the convention; while the 27 large ] counties, havimr 1 Hi,ooo free whites, (of which Hall is one) can only send 69 members; then you will at once see that by ratifying this plan, i you place the power in the hands of the ininor | ity, and that you can never relieve yourselves :in convention or aDV how else. Another itn j porlant objection in the proposed plan is, that it ! provides that the Legislature shall never exceed 144 members, and that, whenever it has arisen to that number on the formation of anew county, in order to give, the new county one member, the county having the smallest white population (hat then sends three, shall lose one ofitsie ; presenlatives, to give it to the new county. Thus you see that instead of a prospect of ever : securing the rights of the majority, evety feature of the plan deprives them ot any possible hope of relief. W’ith these views Freeman of Hall, you cer tainly cannot mistake your course, and you will most assuredly go to the polls, and show to the world that you yet love, Liberty and Equality, by endorsiug on your tickets, NO RATIFICATION. From the Savannah Republican. The attentive consideration of unprejudiced men, is respectfully solicited to the investigation of Maj. Crawford’s letter, bearing date, “July 23, 1833,” and addressed to James S. Calhoun. If there lives an honest Politician in the State of Georgia, who objects to the orthodoxy of his political creed as is disclosed fearlessly, in this letter, then, he must believe, that the immortal Jefferson’s theory and political practice in rela tion to the Federal Constitution, were but the empty effusions of systematic hypocrisy, won derfully designed, to entrap and mislead the un wary, and not to enlighten the pure admirers of .Constitutional liberty. Major Crawford alledg es, “Where the Nullification of an Unconsli'a tional Law, promises success and relief, I have been in past instances, and shall again be as decided an advocate for it, as Mr. Jefferson.” The plain question, submitted to the people for theii determination is, does these sentiments of I Major Crawford, find strength and support, in the finished writings of a man, whose accom plished mind and great menial qualifications, placed him when in lile, in the fiontrank of dis tinguished politicians l Fellow-citizens of Chat ham county, decide for yourselves. Mr. J. is the acknowledged Author of the Kentucky resolutions of 1798, which were produced in consequence of the unconstitutional “Alien and Sedition Laws.” Mr. Jefferson affirms the fol lowing State Right piinciples, in which Major Crawford concurs. “ That the Government cre ated by the compact, was not made the exclusive or final judge of the extent of the powers dele gated to itself since that would have made its discretion and not the Constitution the measure of its powers-, but, that as in all other cases of compact, among parties having no common judge, each party has an equal right to judge for itself, as well of infractions, as of the mode and meas wreof redress.” Will Wilsonlaimpkin’s friends, say, that Mr. Jefferson’s principles thus boldly expressed, bieathes disunion, because he asserts that “each party has an equal right to judge for itself, &c.”—Again “that the several States, who formed that instrument (the Federal Com pact) being sovereign and independent, have the unquestionable right to judge of its infraction, and that a nullification by those sovereignties, ol all unauthorized acts done under color of that instrument, is the rightful remedy.” I would here enquire, is it because Maj. Crawford, as well as Mr. Jefferson, use the term Nullifica tion, that either of them ever designed to oppose the Federal Constitution, and the laws made in ‘'pursuance thereof.” Major Crawford is for the Nullification of an Unconstitutional Late, upon the declared, open and published principles of Mr. Jefferson. Major Crawford is no disor— ganizer, he is not as seems to have been circu lated, one for rending the Union of these States asunder, to make insecure tbo tenure of projter ty, and by his principles give biith to confusion and bloodshed, “ The trivial turns, and borrowed wit, The smiles that nothing fit, Tlit cant which every tool repeats, Town jests and Coffee house.conceits Descriptions tedious, flat and dry, ’ ■ - Are intro luc *d, the Lord knows why,” Major Cra vford Iqys down the followim, tides of his political faith.—“An act ofc gress, incompatible with the Federal C otl J’ 1 ’ tion is no law, and cannot be enforced wiiS sanctioning the usurpation of power.’* can his enemies say against this. I, a studdied concealment ot his senthnentß ? j he deficient in independence 1 Is it triaiaiiJ! “ The Supreme Court being itself part o fl Federal Government, will in most or in all cal! take sides with the Administration, and there!? ought not to be relied on by the people.” * Perhaps Mr Lumpkin, who ha3 spent®,no. ny years of his life on the “ Indian B o ,i, might favor his new friends with his chaste Mh, on jurisdiction; he certainly “will inmost anil cases take sides with” any party to subserve? political interest. “ The States composing confederacy, have not parted with their ( en fa sovereignty, and the people of each have as pJ feet a right, as they ever had, to resist anol pressive measure of Government, provided £ measure is not authorized by the Constitution and in that event they have an equal right, n demand such an amendment of the Constitute. as will secure their rights and interests.”— concealment of principles here l The response of a reasonable man, may be anticipated. Again “The aggrieved people of any State have an unlimited discretion in the choice and use ofali means for the restoration of the violated right, whether that violation proceed from an act oftht State, Federal orb oreign Government.”lm*, we shall not in future hear it said, that Major Crawford has not “come out,” his letters dons “go to the length,” he is not sufficiently “inde. pendent.” For although Ido not, as one ofi* advocates ofMaj. Crawford, desire to dictate!, any citizen, yet I must entertain suspicion, uln an open disclosure of his principles is saidtol* unsatisfactory. Thus, fellow-citizens, is, wii on unshaken confidence, presented for your ut qualified approval, the sterling political princi ples of Maj. Crawford, the Troup Republics Candidate for Gevernor. Ate they not thus, that form the code of the Troup party! Tk Troup Banners are unfurled and proudly stream ing—the friends of true constitutional freedoc, are indissolubly united; and rising in the pore and fulness of their strength, will sustain their candidate. Who so weak as to attempt to sot the seeds of sti ife in our columns 1 What hers tieal dogmas can infuse themselves, like sobs deleterious drug to palsy our recuperative ener gies; I answer triumphantly no one.
