Dear Sir —l have just returned from atrip Washington, and 114 the President is of Mirse the Lion of the day, 1 hasten to give m, my first impressions about his appearance pi habits. He received me quite in the yle of a gentleman of olden time, who had lived with the most finished veterans of the udutioaary school and caught a grace from French as well as the English heroes of vtt age. He seems tall, though probably tover six feet iq height—lias a very full ad of hair, though whitened by exposure •1 fatigue in the service of his country, and walks and talks with the case and readi- t ss of a man of forty. !

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. MACON. “ Our Book relates to all the acts and employ ments of man.”-— Juvenal. Friday, August 20. 1831. _ FOR governor," George /*. Gilmer.

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. il if this until.
