Dear Sir —l have just returned from atrip

Mirse the Lion of the day, 1 hasten to give
m, my first impressions about his appearance

yle of a gentleman of olden time, who had
lived with the most finished veterans of the

French as well as the English heroes of

walks and talks with the case and readi-
t ss of a man of forty.

3 are of the light, (since iiis Creek campaigns,

the I) ),sf(tn Statesman, Glh last*
1 be Transcript of Thursday informs us that
Hon. Isaac I fill, who was attending
THE MACON ADVERTISER. AND AGRICULTURAL AND MERCANTILE INTELLIGENCER
Court as a witness at Exeter, was waylaid as
he was leaving the Court House, assaulted
and struck many blows by General Timothy
Uphain.
it appears from the account in the Tran
script that the by-standers did not interfere.
It is hence evident that it was a concerted
plan to assault him when separated from his
friends and surrounded by federal bullies and
blackguards—for there is not a democrat in
New Hampshire, who it he had been present
at such a scene, would have hesitated to
shed his blood in defence of Isaac Hill, who
lias done so much for democracy and his
country. ’
This is an outrage of no common cliarac- '
ter. Gen. Upham,the bully who made the
assault, is the head of the federal party in
New Hampshire—the best and most respecta
ble man in their ranks arid hut eighteen
months since, was their candidate for Gov
ernor. lie is a stout muscular man, weigh
ing more than two hundred pounds. Mr.
Hill, although powerful in mind, is slender
in frame—and withal has been LAME in one
of his limbs from his youth. For Upham to
assault such a man under such circumstan
ces is the height of cowardice. Mr. Hill was
not the Editor of the Patriot when that pa
per denounced Gen. Upham as asmuggk r.—
He was not the defendant in Upham’s libel
suit and the principal cause for this outrage,
is that he is a talented, firm and fearless re
publican. The result was evidently intend
ed as an insult to every republican in New
Hampshire and every member of that party
should consider himself personally bound to
resent and avenge it. We believe the Supe
rior Court of that State, before whom lie was.
in attendance as a witness, will not Jet the
outrage pass with impunity. The matter
will not end here. The democracy of New
England will stand by Isaac Hill,.as they did
when by federal calumnies his nomination
was negatived in the Senate—and federalists,
though they now ask sneeringly whether to
assault him is an outrage, will rue the day for
setting a bully upon a man 0/ Mr. Hill’s un
sullied character, commanding rnind, and
high official station.

_ FOR governor,"
George /*. Gilmer.
(Cj* Romeo, in our next.
<C/*We received no Milledgeville papers this
morning.
(Cj" The adjourned Term of our late Superior
Court, commences on Monday next. The Rail
Road meeting takes place on the ensuing day.
THE SEASON.
For the last three of four days the rain has
poured down upon ns in torrents. The crops
on the low grounds, we are apprehensive must
suffer severely.
REDUCTION.
We publish to day, from the Georgia Journal a
very interesting article upon this subject, ft is a
strong and patriotic appeal to the good sense of
the people. Let them take it into serious con
sideration, and by a resort to “first principles”
chastise their refractory Representatives into a
sense of their duty.
WtnjLIFICATIOJT.
With the exception of one or two, all the pa
pers which have published Mr. Calhoun’s “ sen
liments,” call bin) a Nullifier. Now, for the
purpose of properly understanding the sense, of
this cahalisticai word, let us try if we can reach its
definition.
NULLIFICATION—n. s.-Thatwhich makes
any person or thing fit for any tiling. [Defined by
the high-toned Free Trade Party of South Carolina.]
That, which gives to a single State tlie right of
seceding from the Union, without an appeal to
her compeers. McDuffie ’Hint which enables
one of twenty-four to dictate to twenty-three.
NULLIFIDIAN-—a. —Of no honesty ; o£ no
religion ; of no faith. Frlthum.
With these definitions staring them in the face,
how can our enlightened Jurisconsults charge Mr.
Calhoun with being leaning in the
slightest degree towards Nullification ? They
cannot do it. But let us speak more seriously.
The Charleston Mercury, the Pioneer of Nu}-
lifidianism , takes Mr. C. up as aNu lltfief. Let
us reason with you Mr. Mercury. Me have all
along taken it fur granted— if we know any thing
about your doctrine of Nullification —that it im
plies the right of one State to annul and make
void a Decree of the whole Union, acting as a plu
ral iwimboT. If we are right in understanding
you, you are wrong in claiming Mr. Calhoun as a
Nullifier. For although he ts very Delphic in his
responses—and as you may make any thing, and
every thing, and nothing at all, o\rt of his senti
mental “sentiments,” the why politician has cer
tainly stole a march upon you. 11 car him !
“ So far from extreme danger, I hold, that there
never was a free state, in which this great conser
vative principle, indispensable in all, was ever so
safely lodged. In others, when the co-estates,
representing the dissimilar and conflicting inter
ests of the community came into contact, the on
ly alternative was compromise, submission, or
force. Not, so in ours. Should the General
Government, and a State come into conflict, we
have a higher remedy;--- the power which called
the General Government into existence, which
gave it all of its authority , and can enlarge, con
tract, or abolish its powers at its pleasure, may
be invoked. The states themselves may he ap
pealed to, three fourths of which, in fact, form a
power, whose decrees are the Constitution
itself, and whose voice can silence all discontent.
The utmost extent then of the power is, that a
Stale acting in its sovereign capacity, as one of
the parties to the Constitutional compact, may
compel the Government, created by that compact,
to submit a question touching its infraction, to
the parties, who created it ; to avoid the suppos
ed dangers ot which, it is proposed to resort to
the novel, (tlie hazardous, and, 1 must *dd, fatal
project of giving to the General GoveVmnent
the sole and final right of interpreting the Con
stitution, thereby reversing the whole system,
making that instrument the c/eature of its will,
losfowj of a tale of twUn on lMt it-'
creation, and annihilating in fact the authority
which imposed it, and from which tlie govern*
ment itself derives its existence,”
For,an understanding of the context, we have
here quoted at large. But all we wish to direct
your attention to, in the above passage, is the aim*
pie expression, that “ The utmost extent then of
the poiver is, that u State acting in its sovereign ca
pacity, ns one of the parties to the constitutional
compact, may compel t)ie Government, created by
that compact, to subunit a question touching its
infraction, TO THE PARTIES WHO CRE
ATED IT.” Now, Mr. Mercury', wc argue that
this is sound constitutional doctrine—and, also,
that if it is your definition of Nullification, we
shall, in the support of it, go with you both body
and soul. Mr. Calhoun, however, you must al
low us to tell you, is not entitled to any credit for
this admission—it is a plain constitutional princi
ple known to every one who has read & is capable
of understanding the great charter of our rights.
But Mr. C. has so mystified it by after declara
tions, it cannot hut tie evident to every reflecting
mind, that he has either succeeded in turning your
head or corrupting your veracity. Taking the
gentleman’s “sentiments” from alpha to omega,
we admit you may, at pleasure, prove him aTa
rifiite or Anti-Tariftite —He is “eveiy thing by’
starts, hut nothing long.” Such, a man, however,
we did not think would have been taken to the
bosom of the Chivalry of South Carolina. He
possesses all the intrigue of Tallevrand, with
out a particle of his talent—and all the error of
Havne, without one of his redeeming virtues.
COSGRESSIOXAL EtECTIOX.
Since our last we have had but few and partial
returns from the Congressional elections which
have just taken place. From those received, there
is no doubt of an increase of members for the ad
ministration. In Indiana, Jaeksonism has pre
vailed. In Kentucky’, the result will be as in the
last Congress. In North Carolina, the adminis
tration is strengthened by the election <jf "Mr.
Bethink (Jackson) over the present incumbent,
Mr. Deberry, an antL-administrationist. This is
counteracted by the election of Mr. J<ea, from one
of the districts in Tennessee, and who is opposed
to the present administration. In .Virginia, there
will be changes, for and against the administra
tion, but without effecting its strength. We are
yet without definite returns from the Norfolk dis
trict, in which Mr. Newton and Mr. Loyall are
candidates; but we believe, from what has bees
heard, that Mr. N. (anti-administration) will su
pereede Mr. L, who is loyal to the “ powers that
be.” Mr. Newton’s fame and popularity, is pre
dicated on the hereditary possession of the station
lie is contending for—having had it almost forty
years: he is an old—the very oldest public servant*
From the Savannah Republican.
In the change of a Governor which is desired
to he made by a ihinoritv. as we believe, can
any good or any benefit arise from it? Con
tnst the character Of George It. Gilmer with
that of Wilson Lumpkin, and to which can
we honestly attribute the host capacity for of
fice—to which tlic most fitness. The one
is consistent in his political conduct, devoted
to the rights of the. State, and to the perma
nency of the Union, resisting encroachments
oil the sovereignty of the one with firmness,
and rejecting a dissolution of the other, as
dangerous and destructive to our existence of
liberty. Free in liis support of the Adminis
tration, because its measures have been wise:
he has judiciously co-bperated and harmoniz
ed with the President u[H>ir every subject-of
moving interest to this State. The other has
been vacillating and devious in his course—
cold andenufious in sujvport of principle. At
one time the prudent admirer of Jackson,
when supported by Mr. Calhoun—at another
time; studiously avoiding any overt act by
which his allegiance to the Viqe-President
could he impugned, or his secret hostility to
the President, would he manifested. A Vol
unteer retailer of news to raise, the hopes.of
an aspirant for the Presidency, and to injure
one w hom lie once delighted to honor.—
Where in this state, or in the halls of Con
gress, ha’s Mr. Lumpkin given any evidences
of talents. He was one of the Board of pub
lic works—did he suggest a single plan for
the improvement of the state, did he show
any acquaintance with her resources, or capa
bilities for improvement? Where arc iiis
acts as a member of Congress ? Where • his
speeches in defence of the rights of our state
when assailed ? Where any proof of the
soundness of his principles, or the correctness
of his political opinions ? Did lie not shud
der at the term of “radical,” which his friends
meant as a reproach to George R. Gilmer,
and which those very triends would now ex
ult ingly apply to their own principles—a fertn
which was one of reproach then, hut now of
honor. Let every honest and intelligent vo
ter ask himself whether he believes,, under
Wilson Lumpkin, the state will he
more prosperous,whether its political charac
ter will he more exalted than if George R.
Gilmer were continued in office-—Let him
enquire who first urged Mr. Gilmer to be
come a candidate, and he will find that some
of Mr. Lumpkin’s warmest friends saw in
Mr. Gilmer, superior fitness, and they solicit
ed him—Support of Mr. Gilmer is an act of
justice not to him alone but to ourselves-—to
out State, and its preseirt and future impor
tance, improvement and character.
While the Editor of the Washington
News slmuld he engaged ih spreading abroad
‘.‘the gathering word—Unite ! Unite !” he is
employed unhappily, in a labor of all others
the most vain and unprofitable that could oc
cupy his attention—an attack upon William
H. Crawford. Nothing can he more une
qual than such a contest, and the Knight of
La Mancha in his greatest, delusions, never
dreamed more idly than doo,s the worthy ed
itor, when he oroppses to vanquish our ven
erable felloxv citizen. Wc have looked care
fully through the Editorial of the News and
its communications to find a serious charge
against Mr, Crawford; we have looked in
vain—-vague hints and indefinite surmises—
the offspring evidently of a deep rooted per
sonal dislike—-arc all thut we have been a
hie to discover. It is really to he regretted
that the editor of the News should venture in
tlie face of the public to pass s, *mtenee. of
condemnation upon the brightest ornament
of hismrn party on the most trivial and un
just grounds—if tbos§ can be called grounds,
which are wholly untenable.
If we understood tne worthy editor, Mr.
Crawford is accused of aristocracy—the very
last charge we ever expected to he urged
against him and to which the open volume of
his whole life is an ample refutation. 111 pri
vate life—-in the councils ofthe nation, in
the Courts of Kings— William H. Cranford
has ever been considered a primitive and
uncompromising Republican. It is not the first I
time that, a character w holly foreign to him,
has been ascribed to this illustrious man
He hasUeen called a giant of intrigue—when
hq is frmik and straightforward—and subtle
and designing, when there is no man—we as
sert w ithout fear of contradiction by those
that know him—no statesman—so free from
or so much above disguise. The News may
deny to him if it pleases those refinements of
civility which belong to the kneebending
courtier—hut the attempt to brand him with
j the title of“ Aristocrat” is rash and impru
dent.—The News might as well call the aged
Macan-'ithe incarnation of Democracy itself
—an aristocrat.— Constitutionalist.
