JOHN W. M’DANIEL. POLITICAL. TUe Governor's Letters to Mr. Pemberton. From the Augusta Chrotficls. Mieledgeville, April 6th, 1832. J\ly Dear Sir. —l redd the Chronicle with in creased interest —I concur with you generally in matters ot ‘principle, and appreciate your ability to communicate clearly and destinctly your ideas on all subjects. In tho Chronicle of the 4th. I was jjleased with the hoticc taken of Gov. Troup’s letter by * 1 AGeorgian.” I was pleased w ith your editorial temnrks on the sub ject of the “ Hancock Meeting.” Permit ttie to say to you, that virile I am decidedly in favor of Reduction, my tac has had a promnient place, in the Hancock and other meetings on the subject of a Convention —without my privi ty, knowledge or consent—t. e. witnoiit the least consultation with me, by any individual who has taken part in those? meetings. The evidence of what I state, will bfe given to the uublic in due time—in an incontrovertible form. The official relation which I bear to the people, at this important crisis, occupies all my time and talents —would require J\loic If I had them to bestow'. I am not to bo diverted from a straight forward course. The State will sus tain all its rights Fear not. Be strong. I am calm and compost’d. I tlsb no threatening lan guage, nor large swelling words. I shall not ape Troup. But lam ready to do my duty.; Do let me hear from you, and believe me yours as ever, ’ WILSON LUMPKIN. A. H. Pemberton, Esq. Angusta -When the above letter was written, we were, i and had been for some time, sustaining the doc trines of Nullification in the strongest, and most explicit, and determined terms. Award ol this, I he voluntarily opens a correspondence—telling j us that lie “ read the Chronicle with increased interest,” and “ concurred with us generally in matters of ptiiiciple.” What else could have increased that interest but nullification, since scarcely any thing else had appeared in the pa-: per for some time 1 And what other “matters | of principle” could we have expected bo i ferrod [to, but those of nullification, when wo had not I discussed any others for a length of time ? Ihe very article he mentions, respecting “ the i u a < <v “k Meeting,” was one strongly censuring the ellurt to draw ofFthe energy, lotercst, and lecling of the State, to the subject of “ Reduc tion,” w-hen they were all needed on the subject ot resistance to the oppressions of the Tariff, and Ought all to be concentrated on that, till .1 was finally settled and disposed of. Our whole efforts at that time; were devoted to the rights and wrongs of the State, and the proper mode of 1-c dressing the latter, and sustaining the former. And what docs he say, in connection with oil tots ?—“ The State will sustain all Us rights. hear not.” Fear not what, but that we should succeed, in tne course we were then pursuing? “Be strong.” Strong ih what, btit the advocacy ** nullification? •* I am calm and fcotopoaed. ( use .... threatening language; fior large swelling words. I shall not ape Troup. I am ready to do my duty.”—Now what could all this be under-* stood to mean, but that he should not use threat- ening language, and large swelling words, ea I rciup had done, but that he would sustain too rights ot the State, as determinately as he had done; notwithstanding ? Neltt mask our reply to this, and an, extract from another letter, the first part of which is on another wholly different subject and therefore omitted. Here they arc—and say if we did not write therein horn begining to end, as one un der full conviction that he agreed with us on th*> doctrines of nullification ? Now would he not, if not then a Nuliifier. have uhdeceivcd us as to the evident impieasiou i under which the above were written 1 Note if he attempts to do so, in the following reply to them, in the slightest degree.—A small part of it in reply to that omitted in ours, is left out. Millepgcville, June 9th 1832. J\ly Dear Sir, —Your letter of the 6th inst. is before me. And although I am sick and scarcely able to write, not having answered your former interesting letter, I feel that you must not be longer neglected, lo6t niy silenco should be attributed to some want of respect of kind feeling, which docs not exist. My kindest feelings are with you as a friend, in whose mo tives, itidepehcibhcb and talents my confidence remains unshaken. Iri regard lo the course of the Federal Union, I shall remark, its Editors, like the jest of the corps, as far ns I know, are the rightful owners of all that appears in their paper editorially. For myself, you may rest assured I have no newspaper organ, not tho slightest control, concert, or connexion with any press in existence, so far as relates to tho po litical sentiments of the editors. So far as lam concerned, they affe entitled to the entire rc sponsibilitv of all that appears in their papers —As a public man, all that I ask from a frdo press is, that when my public acts arc taken up, th..t they. Will tell fAe truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truihi And this much ought to ;be expected from every honest Editor. ° I Having a great many things to do, I find it tie | cessary to take one thing at a time, and I select the most important one first. And when that is* disposed of, I take up the next, &c. If I had nothing else to doi but to write and make speech es on subjects of political I would certainly try my skill, at this important crisis, rather than remain an idle spectator oftbe deep ly interesting, scenes which now agitate tho country. But it is my lot to be the superintends ent of a mighty workshop. My auxiliaries are few and feeble. Every thing that is not planned, prepared and executed by myself, undergoes my scrutiny, inspection and correction. In a wold; Sir, let trie plainly say to you, I ato at this stormy period, endeavoring to steer the bark of Georgia, without one solitary competent and regular adviser. I have found many of un friends purely and exclusively selfish. If they caunot advise so as to bring advantage lo then>- selves, they drop off. V*'ell let them go. My health is bad, but my spirits and confidence firm and unshaken. If God spares my life, and gives me health, I shall surmoUnt every other difficulty. I can write no mere, yfiiits as ever. WILSON LUMPKIN. A. IT. Pemberton, Esq. Augusta. How is the above letter to be understood, but as giving us his reasons, therein detailed, for not complying with our urgent wishes, that ho would come out openly before the public, in ad vocacy of the doctrines we entortained, and be lieved him to entertain? Docs he not say, that but for the pressure of other matters, and tlior want of competent aid, &c. he “ would certainly try his skill, at this important crisis, rather than remain an idle spectator of, the deeply interest ing scenes which, now agite the country ?” And how were we to expect, from this, that ho would have tried his skill, tkc. —for or against nullifi cation? Should we have been justified in enter taining for a moment, a single doubt, on that score ? M e here submit the case to the public, and leave them to determine whether Gov. Lumpkin j was or was not a nuliifier, at the time this cor- I rc-pondi uce look place —whether, if he was tint I so, he did not gixe us just grounds to believe ho was —and wlic'iiur ho was wronged by the ex pression of that belief, or had any cause what* ever to complain ot it. * r "A law of Virginia allows the retailing ofspir ; itous liquors at proper p laces. 111 one of tho j counties the magistrates hnvc decided that there is no su'.h is \A-.r . within ihr ir limit?,’ NO. 26.
