In addition to wliich, he will shortly 1 be furnished with a series of Essays, written bv Literary Gentlemen, who have taken a Geological view of this country, in which will be shewn the complete arrange ment of the different Strata of earths and rocks, forming this interesting section of country, and in what kind Gold is most usually found.

As regards the political course of this paper, the Editor i will endeavor to pursue a liberal course keeping at all I times his columns opeji to the discussion of political sub jects, wliich are or may be of interest to the country. In relation to his own political opinions, he considers ( them to be such as have been maintained in the Southern States, from the adoption of the Federal Constitution down to the present time. He believes that Federal en croachmeilt?, should be guarded against with vigilance ■ 1 and repelled wit!* promptness. Yet however in contend ing for the Rights of the States, he cannot go to the ex . traordinary and dangerous extent of some of the politi cians in a sister State; because he believes it would ulti mately end in the destruction of the Government and all its Rights. His opinions however, he considers as nothing more than the opinions of any other individual, he will there fore endeavor to aet the part of a faithful Journalist with out being subservient to the views of any party, leaving his paper open to the investigation of truth, and all inter est ing subjects by all. l‘he fisst number of this paper will appear in a few weeks.

Mv Dear Sir—Knowing that you wish to possess my views of the present state of affairs, tKeVonnctioTj; that whether they happen to be in accordance with your own or not, they will receive a kind and hospitable treatment, more than proportion ed to their deserts;and if valueless be dismissed with the generosity and urbanity so congenial to your nature; otherwise, it may be a little legacy to your son, my namesake, who, if he inherit the patriotism of the father, and virtues of the mother, may find them useful to him. in sustain ing in many an hour of tiial, as we have done, the rights of the States, against a very strong government created by the States, now threat ening, by a most unnatural action, to cripple, to humble, and finally to destroy its creator, which in the natural and healthful action of the system would be also its preserver. I am not certain that you arc aware o£»*y early and uniform disrelish of the doctrine of Nullification, as maintained by the ruling party in a sister State. My objections to that doc trine were unconnected with party oi any kind, : and were founded on the difficulty of reconcil ing the peacefulness and constitutionlaity which it asserted with thit powerful remedial process, by which the wheels ofthe Federal Government would be stopped, ns well as that resort to con struction (lhe old Federal sin,) by which alone the doctrine could be maintained, which has in volvcd us in all our troubles, and which is equal ly good at any time to establish a veto against the General Government, a power to protect manufactures, or a power to do any thing a ma jority in Congrese ph ascs. It was easy to per- : ceive, that such a remedy might, by possibility he peaceful, that depending on the other party, but not certainly peaceful. It was more diffi cult to see how it could be constitutional, be cause as no power was given by the Constitu tion to the Stales to icsist the laws of the Uni ted States, none such could be derived by im plication or construction.* The derivation cf remedies or |>owers by construction being ac cording to lhe republican doctrine, inadmissible. Indeed’, no Constitution would authorize resist ance to the laws, without defining explicitly how, in what manner, and by whom such resis tance could be lawfully made. It is assumed : therefore, that the laws must be executed; and ( at all events, according to the stipulations ofthe ; Federal Compact. But who, in the last resort, ar« the judges of these stipulations None are created bv the compact, other than the Lo ,jrts of the United States. The junsdictmn ofthe i! Courts ofthe United States, must be comim-dI ' to judicial cases, to the exclusion of political, ' questions between aoverigns; and so tar the ’ Courts oi the United States have paramount ju , risdiction. The “controversies between two er 1 more States.” mean only such judical questions ' as are presented by “cases in law oz equity J to ’ which their jurisdiction is limited by ihe Con- • What arc called the reserved rights " in the j I r Aiwivcri bv the dcoplc and which have not been giv n 7 mean soverei sn power, then indeed I ” 3 i-1 retained a pc.- ” a foXlf! «h.ch would be -3kine • e seveu I? n. when it u only ’ both delegated and reserve! pc* -» 1 ---'r the cth' - * stitution. Political controversies or questions > between governments, could not have been in tended, they not admitting the interpretation of cases in law or equity, much less could politics! controversies between the States and Federal ’ Government have been intended, they not being recognized by the Constitution as parties in any I cases. If therefore, in controversies between 1 those parties no independent tribunal has been established for their adjustment, we canjiavo no alternative but the resort to one or both of the parties—if to one, which one ?—if to both, 1 why? If the parties werejjqual in all respects, reason would prescribe equtfl participation in the adjustment, which would be an adjustment by i negotiation—ls they were not equal, but the one. I was in power and authority superiorto the other, the same reason might claim for the superior ; party a participation in the adjustment, propor tioned to that superiority. Between the govern ment of a state and the government ofthe Uni ted States, this equality, as they both represent sovereigns, must be admitted—No superiority can be claimed for the government of the Uni ted States, because ol its representation of more sovereigns than one, as all their powers in mass, amount only to the powers of one sovereign. Regarding the government ofthe United States, therefore, apart from the Constitution, in the light of any other independent government, the equality between it and a state government es r tablishos the right of equal participation in the adjustment of any political controversy which may arise between them. But, as between th© government of the United States and the sove reignty of a state, there can be no such equality, the same sovereignty having created both go vernments and standing in relation to each other of creator and creature—hence the right of q sovereign s ate to decide for itself, without ap peal; stilll it is among the most sacred of its duties, to fulfil strictly, all its engagements, es«- pecially its constitutional engagements, they being ofthe highest and most solemn import, not engagements to the government of the Uni ted States, but to the other sovereign states.— There is no sovereignty in what is called tho United States—The United States is nothing but a or confederacy, the style of which is, “the United States;” and Government according to our doctrine, is not sovereign, but is agent or servant ofthe tFe people of the states. It is in virtue of this sovereignty that the state government is formed; and it is in virtue of the same sovereignty that the United States government is formed. This sovereignty, wherever it exists, is omnipotent; it is the same in one independent community as another, and is insusceptible of division, of in ( crease or diminution; it can only be destroyed, by destroying the community in which it exists* Constitutions, and governments are emanations from it, as light from the sun, which parts with it constantly, without itself being impaired, or wasted, or weakened. Hence it is, that it makes and unmakes at pleasure, and knows tfo superi or but Divinity, and no law but the universal law ordained by that Divinity, which is the laro of right and justice. According to ou r thcont nnrl p.n iri i inuJeUl ULUUfr 6T tfilS 80VC. reign, is to form Constitutions, which prescribe the rules for the conduct of the agent or servant called the government. If the sovereign is di.°, satisfied either with the rule or with the conduct of the agent, it can abolish or change it at plea, sure. If it can abolish or change the rule.it can destroy the agent, because the rule is of higher power and authority. Admitting there, fore, that a state may, at any time destroy its ow n state Constitution, can a state, of its own plesure, destroy the Constitution of the United States ? The same power which created tho one, has created the other—and may it not, for causes, which shall seem good to itself, change or destroy the one, as well as the other ? Tho answer is, No. Because other states equally sovereign as itself, are equal parties to it. But although a state may not for this reason alter or destroy the Constitution, it may throw it off; it may release itself; it may, by its own volition, for justifiable causes, cease to be a party to it. Are there no such good and justifiable causes i Yes—There an- such as will justify the breach of a compact Between sovereigns by ono of the parties to that coinpact; many of which causes are to be fuunn in that public law which is the Divine law, which is lhe law of right and justice and which being the paramount law, is as con trolling over compacts and Constitutions, as the sovereign itself. Let it not be said that the gG [ uernment of the United States, formed by tLo compact, is paramount,because itis ucompound of all the sovereignties of all the states. Sove. 1 reignty, it is r< pt ated, admits of no degrees. It is the same in a small state as in a great one; 1 the same in the state of Delaware or Rhode Island, a* in the greatest community. Itis ' said, that lhe stales have parted with many of their sortr* - gn powers, as the power to make war, tiie power to make treaties, the power to regulate foreign con.merer, &.c. kc. But this is a mistake, they have not parted with them; they have merely authorized lhe common agent | to exercise them, under prescribed rules Aid ii. I nutations; the powers themselves residing in ‘ lhe states, and inseparable from them as inde. pendent communitii s. It is true, the Consti. tution speaks of powers granted and powers reserved; but this only means powers of the States to be cxerci- by the government of ’ the United States; ano powers ofthe states to i be exerci-ed by the J-t<And with regard i to the poweis prohibited to the Gcneial Govern 5 ment and to tho stules, it i only a declaration ? ! i,„ -.’her F’a“ - -t il w'-H "rt ex'-r NO. 42.
