CAumbu*,July 25, 1340.
Gentlemen—l have been honored by your
invitation to attend, on Tuesday next, at the
feast to be given in honor of certain distin
guished citizens of Georgia and of Alabama,
by the Democratic citizens of Muscogee
county.
Generally speaking, I should feel it would
be more prudent for me to unite with my
fellow citizens only at the ballot box, in using
my right as a member of the Republic, to
approve or to censure the conduct of those
I to whom we entrust the guardianship of our
| liberties. On the present occasion, I feel the
additional lorce of a monition given by my
i brethren at our last council (a few months
!since) upon this very subject, in a pastoral
letter, a copy of winch I take the liberty of
sending you. 1 trust then, that my respect
: fully declining your invitation will not he con
sidered as wanting in courtesy to you. The
body, to which I belong, protesses to be one
of peace and conciliation: should its mem
bers unite actively with political parties mu
tually opposed, whilst each declares that it
seeks only the prosperity of our Republics,
’.heir capacity to promote peace and concili
ation would be at an end. You will feel that
the influence of such a ministry of good
i will would, in our present state of excitement,
he useful, if not necessary, and lam sure
jyou will approve ot the determination by
j which lam bound. I think, however, I may
i venture to say that the best remedy for our
! present unfortunate position is to be (bund in
j preferring industry to speculation, labor to
cabal, economy to ostentation, patient and
| persevering frugality to dissipation. I there
fore consider that man, who aids in making
! our lands productive, to be our most useful
citizen; 1 regard the laborious, well conduct
ed mechanic as preferable to the speculator
in stocks or to the usurer. ‘The former cre
ates the wealth of a nation, the latter endea
vors to get into its possession under the pre
text of its management. I also believe that
our federal government lias bad as little in
jfluencein producing the present distress in
| our Slates, as I had in producing that which
afflicts Europe; and that it lias as little pow
er to alleviate that di-tress as it has constitu
j tional right lo interfere with its causes.
Some of our most eminent citizens have
| expressed deliberate opinions widely ditter
! ing from mine. I have given full considera
(turn to their reasoning, but can not come into
their conclusions. In one point, however, I
should hope we could all unite. That laying
aside unkind feelings, bitterness, strife and
mere partisan attachments, we should en
deavor to bring back our habits of good Re
publican simplicity, and zealous for ourcoun
j try’s good, endeavor, by the peaceable pro*
! cess of the ballot box, to place in the admin*
i istration of our government those citizens
; whom, in the presence of God, we shall con
! scieniiouMy regard as the best qualified to
promote the general good, by the sacrifice of
predilections, by preserving us in peace and
safety in our domestic relations, in our sacred
homes and maintaining us in full possession
of our rights, having our commerce untram
meled by monopoly, by sectional preferences
or by facilities created by the use of the pub
lic purse, and by sustaining us in our strength
by having the bond of our Union most firm
ly interwoven bv our so as to se
cure to us the respect and confidence of the
world abroad. It is trie good of our country
which requires that we should endeavor to
unite all our fellow citizens for this desirable
nbj ct. Let us endeavor by an affectionate
interchange of views to effect it.
Believe me to be, with sentiments of high ‘
esteem, your obliged fellow citizen, i
jJOHN, Bishop of Charleston.

EXTRACT FROM PASTORAL LETTER.
‘And here, beloved brethren, whilst we dis
claim ail right to interfere with your judgment
in the political affairs of our common country,
and are from entertaining the wish to-control
you in the constitutional exercise of your free
dom—we cannot in justice to ourselves, refrain
from addressing to you a lew observations
equally demanded by ihe love that we bear lo
our civil and political institutions, and die ob
ligations of morality. You cannot but be
aware that our own views and sentiments, re
specting the political parlies which divide our
national councils, are as little in harmony as
are your own, or those of any other religious
body in our land. Yon cannot, theretbre, at
tribute our monition to any political bias, nor
entertain the suspicion that it is meant to pro
duce any political effect. Our object is exclu
sively the respectability of our land, thestabil
ity ol'our constitution, the perpetuation ofour
liberties, and the preservation of pure and un
defiled religion.
‘The petio Is which precede our great elec
tions are usually marked by extraordinary ex
citement. Associations are formed, commti
teesare appointed, clubs are organised, party
spirit is excited, the tongue and the pen are
embittered by virulence, iruth is disregarded,
and more melancholy and more censurable
still! freeman of every religious denomu- * ; °n,
electors upon the proper exercise of wh;*U
judgment we receive statesmen who may save
our republics from ruin, or who may degrade
them in the eyes ol'the world, and may destroy
our peace and our liberty; voters upon whose
virtuesand p r udenceourdearest rights depend,
are, brutalized by pampering their meanest
i passions, are by vile bribery debased to the
‘lowest grade ot infamy and recklessness; and
thus what was meant to be a blessing is turned
mto a curse. Beloved brethren, flee this con
tamination, keep aloof from these crimes—re
! fleet that you are accountable not only to so
ciety but to God, lor the honest inde, endent
jand tearless exercise of your own franchise,
j that it is a trust confided to you not for your
| private gain but for the public good, and that if
I yielding to any unlue influence you act either
j througii favor, affection, or the motives of dis
i honest gain against your own deliberate view
; of what will promote your country’s good, you
have violated your trust, you have betrayed
| your conscience, and you are a renegade to
! your country. Do then, we entreat of you,
avoid the contaminating influence of political
[strife, keep yourselves aloof from the pestilen
i tial atmosphere in which honor, virtue, patriot
ism and religion perish, and be assured that
our republics never can be respected abroad,
..or sustained at home, save by an uncom
promising adherence to honor, to virtue, to
[patriotism and to religion. How often have
we’ had to weep over the havoc of morals, and
the wreck of religion which political excitement
lias produced.’
MitlcJgeville, 25 th July, 1840.
Gentlemen — 1 Lave tiie honor to acknowl- j
! edge the receipt of your invitation to a free !
j barbacue to be given in Columbus on the!
I gSth instant, to our feilow-citizens, the Hon.!
!E. J. Black, \V. T. Colquitt and M. A.
! Cooper, and tiie Hon. Dixon H. Lewis of
! Ala ban a.
The distinguished gentlemen whom you
! propose to honor, deserve the gratitude ot the
! people of their respective States, for their
; patriotic and tearless advocacy ot the promi
nent measure ol the administration, by which
the finances of the country have been finally
rescued from the control of irresponsible cor
porations.
What is r-t wishing, is that any are lound
to oppose it. No man will admit that he is
wi’ilng to submit to taxation for the purpose
ol raumg funds lor the suppmu of hanks; and
yet th.3 is the evil from which we are deliv
ered by the establishment ol the sub-treasury
system.
The wisdom of this measure will soon be
developed by its beneficial effects, and it is a
policy, I predict, which will never be aban
doned. By it, as much as is said to the con
trary, the patronage of the President is great
ly abridged. Under the old system, the
deposite banks had their stock holders, whose
interest manifestly led them to support the
administration by whose kindness they were
so much benefited. Their own means,
vastly increased by those of the Government,
were generally exerted to sustain the hand
that aided them, and their favors accordingly
bestowed for that purpose. Thus, the Gov
ernment had power to create an influence
which might be corruptly and oppressively
felt in every branch of society, growing wider
and deeper, until the people might have been
subjected to a monied dominion—the worst
of all despotisms.
In future, those whose business it will be to
collect, keep, and disburse the public revenue
can dispense no favors. The public funds
will not be more exposed to peculation than
when deposited in banks, and will not be lia
ble to losses by loan.
The people have a right to consider those
their benefactors who have been instrumental
in achieving this revolution.
I regret that I cannot be with you on an
occasion of so much interest. You will accept
for yourselves and those whom you represent
the assurance of my high consideration.
CHARLES J. M‘DONALD.
To Messrs. John H. Howard, John L. Lewis,

Belleville, (near Augusta,) July 26, 1840.
Gentlemen —I had the honor, on yester
day, to receive your invitation to attend‘a
free barbacue to be given on the 23th inst.,
by a portion of the Democratic Republican
party of Muscogee county, to our distin
guished representatives, Black, Colquitt and
Cooper, and also the distinguished representa
tives from Alabama, Dixon H. Lewis.’ I
regret that my business is such as to compel
me to be absent on that occasion, but be
assured, that nothing but sickness or death
shall prevent mv co-operating with you at
the ballot box in October and November next,
in sustaining the principles of the Democratic
Republican party.
Respectfully, your ob’t serv’t,
VAL. WALKER.
I offer von the following sentiment :
Gen. William Henry Harrison —May a
‘ Norlh-Atnerican sun never shine upon’ him
as President of those United States.
V. w.
Macon, July 23 d, 1840.
Gentlemen —l have received your favor
inviting me to the barbacue to be given in
your city on the 231 h. It would afford me
great pleasure to be with you on that occasion,
but I have engagements in two other counties
about the same time, that will prevent my
attendance. I forego the pleasure of meeting
you with less reluctance from the considera
tion, that, by fulfilling my previous engage
ments, I shall have an opportunity of render
ing some service to the cause to which we are
all devoted; a service which will be more faith
fully and ably performed by others who will
visit vour city.
Respectfully, vour ob’t serv’t,
D. C. CAMPBELL.
To Messrs. John H. Howard, A. Levison, S.

committee .
Robinson Spring, July 21, 1840.
Gentlemen —A severe indisposition, from
which I am but just recovering, prevents my
acceptance of y.ur invitation to join the fes
tivities on the 28. h instant, in honor of your
‘distinguished Representatives and fellow
citizens, Biack, Colquitt, Cooper,’ and of our
immediate representative, the Hon. Dixon
H. Lewis.
I beg you to be assured, gentlemen, that
it would, at all times, afford me high gratifi
cation, by any act, within my power, to
evince my hearty approbation of the political
conduct of those Nullifiers who have been
‘faithful found among the faithless;’ faithful
not to an accidental alliance with political
antipodes, but faithful to their own cherished
principles.
The attempt of Whig Nullifiers (if it be
not a solicism lo use the expression) to fix the
charge of inconsistency and desertion upon
those nullifiers who sustain the present ad
ministration, I consider an act unparalleled in
the history of parties, for its reckless ef
frontery.
It is true that the leaders of Whiggery
have offered a ‘veiled prophet’ to the wor
ship of those whom they wish to delude. But
the veil, thus dexterously cast over the hide
ous features of their idol’s deformity, has
rents enough, through which the nuliifier, at
least, may, with half an eye, discover that
this is not the prophet whom he may follow.
‘I recommend,’says General William Hen
ry Harrison, in his speech of the 4th July,
1833, ‘the Proclamation of the President of
tiie United States, issued 11th December,
and the speeches of Mr. Webster, delivered
in the Senate of the United States at the last
session of Congress, as containing the most
eloquent and satisfactory exposition of the
principles of the Constitution that have been
recently published.’ Mr. Webster, in one of
the speeches thus endorsed by Gen. H. states
the following proposition: ‘I maintain that
the Constitution of the United States is not
a league , confederacy, or compact between the
people of the several States in their sovereign
capacities; but a government proper, (bund
ed on the adoption of the people, and crea
ting direct relation between itself and indi
viduals.’ General Harrison, again, in bis
person, gives us the following: ‘By a course
as quiet as peacable, as the operation of I
those laws which the Creator has assigned
(or the government of the material world,
the Judiciary Department restrains the
other branches of the General Government
from the exercise of unconstitutional powers,
and the States, from those aberrations to which
a tendency has been so often manifested And
again, ‘constituted as is the government of
the Union, it appears to me, that there is not
the least danger of its encroaching upon the j
rights of the States .’ We may consider as
the natural, if not inevitable, incident to
these general views, his advocacy of a Tar .
iff of Protection, a system of Internal Im
provement, and the application of the funds
of the General Government to buy up our
slaves.
And nullifiers, who support a candidate
| himself identified with these*principles, and
who act with a large party who only support
him because he [docs sustain these principles.
They, indeed to bandy epithets of ‘inconsis
tency! apostacy! and desertion!’ Aye, and
honest men have been deceived by the sense
less clamour. I have confidence, however, in
what has been so happily termed ‘the sober
| second thought of the people,’ and trust that
tlie loss of those who were really with us in
principle, and not merely our allies from ac
! cident, will not be so great as present ap
peararces would indicate. I offer you, gen
tlemen, the following sentiment:
The passage of the Sub-Treasury Bill, a
sufficient guarantee of the sincerity and the
orthodoxy of the party in power. We wish
no change, and least of all such a change as
the Whigs would bring us.
With great consideration, I subscribe my
self, vours, gentlemen,
J. W. HAYNE.
To . Messrs. John H. Howard, A. Levison , S.
A. Bailey, John L. Lems, William K.
Schlry, James JY*. Bethune. and others.
Wetumpka, Ala., July 24, 1340.
Gentlemen — 1 regret my inability to ac
cept of your kind invitation, received yestor
day, to attend a barbacue to be given in
Columbus, Georgia, on the 23th instant, to
your distinguished Representatives in Con
aress, Black, Colquitt and Cooper, and our
high minded and gifted Representative, j
Dixon H. Lewis. I assure you it would!
comport with my inclination to meet you, J
. and the ‘portion of the Democratic Republi-j
can party of Muscogee county’ you repre
sent on that occasion. But an attack of the
intermittent lever, under which I am now la
boring, places it out of rny power to attend.
I anT happy, gentlemen, to discover that
Georgia, for the political welfare of which I
feel a peculiar interest, as it is the land of my
collegiate education, is awake to the contest.
Our sentinels upon the ramparts of the Con
stitution have sounded the alarm. The dan
ger is apparent to the most unobserving, and
it is the duty of every patriot to enlist in the
cause of truth against the joint efforts of
Federalism, Abolition and a fragment of,
Southern men who, losing sight of principle,
suffer themselves to be governed by personal
feeiings. The present Presidential canvass
is, indeed a struggle for the triumph of Fed
eral doctrines upon the one hand, and of
Republican on the other. Il is assimilated to
the contest of the elder Adams and Thomas
Jefferson in all respects, save that this is ren-!
dered the more prominent and important
frotn the fact, that upon the re-election of the
party in power depends the success of that:
financial revolution which it has been its en
deavor for ten years, or more, to effect. It is
for the people, the repository of integrity,
wisdom and sovereignty, to pass upon this
financial reform. I have a confidence, brought
to reflect as they now are, in their ultimate
design in favor of the divorce between the
Government and Banks. ‘No Government !
is safe which is under the vassalage of any
self-constituted authorities, or any other au
thority than that of the nation or its regular
functionaries.’ The proper price of a tiling,
according to true political economy, depends
upon the labor and capital necessary to pro
duce it, including in the term capital, science,
because labor and capital have been expend
ed in its acquisition. Two things, then,
requiring the same capital and labor to pro
duce them, should be denoted by the same
price, ascertained from the application of a
common measure of a value. That trade
may he conducted on terms of equality, the
common measures of value of two nations,
in commercial intercourse, should be on a
par, of course the medium being in a sound
state. One of the great advantages of specie
is that being of universal value, it will keep
i'self* at a general level, flowing out whence
it is too abundant, into places where it is
wanted. But if the medium be of local value,
as paper money, true gold and silver will flow
in to supply the deficiency; but if too much,
which is invariably the case, it ‘accumulates,
banishes gold and silver when not locked up
in vaults and hoards, and depreciates itself ’
A simple analysis of the operation is, that
its proportion to the annual produce of in
dustry being increased one hundred dollars
of paper-promises-to pay (by a misnomer
termed money) is required to represent an
article of produce represented in the country
with which we trade whose medium is healthy,
by fifty dollars, assuming the fact that the
depreciation in the currency amounts to 50
per cent.
Smith, the great political writer, and the
advocate of a paper currency admits that
‘the commerce and industry of a country
cannot be so secure when suspended on the
Badalian ivings of paper money, as the solid
ground of gold and silver; and in time of
war the inseerity is greatly increased, and
great confusion possibly where the circula
tion is for the greater part in paper.’ The
only advantage claimed by Smith for the
paper over the gold and silver currency is
‘to replace an expensive instrument with one
much less costly, and sometimes equally con
venient,’ that is to say, quoting from the
same author, ‘lx> allow the gold and silver to
be sent abroad and converted into foreign
goods., A sinple remark here. No addition
is made by such an operation to the national
capital. The coin sent out is worth as much
as the goods received in exchange; it is ad
mitted that while a part ol’ the goods received
in exchange for the coin exported may be
materials, implements and provisions lor the
employment of new industry, yet a portion
is imported in the form of silks, satins, broad
cloths, wine, &.C., to be consumed by the idle
who work not nor spin. The national capital,
then, is diminished to that ex.ent. The ad
vocates of a paper currency, who have cal
culated the due proportion of the circulating
medium to the whole value of the annual
produce of the country, and who have esti
mated the amount of the convenience of
paper, make it about 3 4 per cent. And for
this trifling sum shall we prefer paper to ihe
specie medium which is of uniform universal
value, which can never perish in our hands,
and with all its saving powers in time of j
war? The convenience of paper in its easy j
transmission might be supplied by bills of
exchange, without causing any great dis
placement of coin. The cases would he rare
7, here such bills could not be obtained either
directly or circuitously: an unimportant diffi
culty, when contrasted with the immensity
of evil resulting from a paper circulation.
They are of no benefit to individuals, for they
draw a heavy interest from those to whom
they owe; and as to the public they banish
our gold and silver, which, without their ex
istence, we have without interest. The dan
gerous tendency, and abuse to which the
paper system is liable, is fully demonstrated
in every country where it has been adopted.
Look to Scotland under Law’s plan; to
France under the Mississippi scheme, which i
was based upon Law’s principles, and to its !
history in our own country, and to England
under the full operation of its powerlul Na-j
tional Bank. The distress which existed in
this country in 1819, ’2O, ’22 and ’24, under j
the full and successful operation of a Nation- j
al Bank, proves, as was then admitted, that j
the Bank could not relieve the ills of the I
people. Henry Clay, in a speech delivered in
1524, reviewed the gloomy prospects, when :
labor was destitute of employment, and pro- i
perty depreciated fifty percent in value, and j
said it was attributable to the perilous resort
to the use of paper money.
In conclusion, I offer you the following sen-:
timent: i
The 4th July, 1340. The day on which
the Independent Treasury Bill, that great;
‘measure of deliverance and liberty,’ from
financial embarrassment, a Bank vassalage, j

rv Harrison to the highest office in the world.
We respectfully ask to be heard in our hum j
ble and short statement on this subject.
White, the ordinary slang of the day has
been stooped to against M. Aan Buren.|o( |
‘war upon the currency,’ ‘ profligacy ot ex
penditures,’ ‘standing army’ ‘consolidationist,’
!‘tyrant,’&.C., &c., without any evidence to
| sustain a single item —let us see the rebel that j
[ is offered.
‘A change!’ Mr. Randolph has told us,
‘that every change is not a reform. A peo- j
pie deeplv in debt will never be satisfied with
a sober steady government. The four hun
dred men that went out with Calaline were .
in debt.’
But to the proposed remedy. Wm. Henry j
i Harrison, their political panacea. Look, sirs,
‘pi this petticoat General, on the sth of Feb., 11
jISOO, on the floor of Congress, making a
speceh against reducing the standing army
lof Julia Adams, as reported in the Aurora,
the leading Republican press of that day, the
! 3th of February, ISOO. Now tilts standing
januy was gotten up fur the avowed purpose
i of resisting a French invasion, but as was be
- by every repubi can, to enforce the A
lien and Seditionlavw; and keepdown the spi
\ rit of liberty. The debates clearly show this
j lact. But who that has ever looked into his
tory, does not know, dial the tyrant avows
; one thing when another is intended. See him
lon that occasion, associated with Bayard,
| Marshall, Otis and Harper, notorious Feder
alists, and arrayed against Randolph, Galla
tin, Nicholas, Jones of Georgia,and Macon.
1 Pretty ‘Jeffersonian republican’ this, on this
great measure of Federalism.
Take the testimony of Gov. Branch of N.
j Carolina, and this certificate republican was
six years a Fedeialisl against him. Turn to
! the testimony of Mr. Fowler of Lexington,
i Ky., an old Republican member of Congress,
now retired, and we find this General ofpet
! ticoats with the black cockade riveted to his
| hat and his professed republicanism. Is the
| testimony of a Mills necessary with scores of
| others, to fix the charge of Federalism to this
i certificate made General ?
But Harrison may approve, and vote for
| laws to sell white men and women into bon
i dage for life, yes, a soldier that fought for our
| freedom could have been sold into bondage
I for life under a fine and costs for assault and
j battery; for it is well known, that many of
tins worthy band in contempt of riches, lived
I and died pennyless—and yet Harrison is a
good republican—From such republicanism
’ we pray God always to keep this country
! free!
But this ‘bug bear’ standing army. Oh,
misery! we shall take ligits to think of it.—
But after all, it is a good deal like Gen. Knox’s
plan, something like our present law of the
U. S. But, shocking to relate, in ISI7,
General Tip, himself brought forward a plan.
He only proposed that Stale Governors should
I have nothing to do in the matter. This
would have left Georgia m a very pretty con
dition under the ‘old Treaty.’ General Tip,
however, was willing to pay the officers, but
not the soldiers, though be wanted teachers
of military tactics employed in every school
in the U. States at the public expense.
And Mr. Van Bureu endorsed Mr. Poin
sett’s plan! Very sirange, that Mr. Van
Buren could have endorsed in Dec. 1839, that
which did not exist till March, or April, 1840,
and which Mr. Poinsett says Mr. Van Buren
never saw till it was in print. Nor was it
necessary he should see it, since Congress
drew directly on the Secretary without re
gard to tiie President-
The cry of extravagance is kept up by
the Bank Parlor Gentlemen. They admit
that fifteen million (Henry Clay) would be an
economical Administration. Well, look at the
official report, and it will be found as low as
thirteen million and a half, stripped of the
extraordinary charges; every item of extra
ordinary having been supported by the op
position, as the journals of Congress will
show; such as the French indemnities, the
Florida war, purchase of Indian lands, remo
val of Indians, &c. &.c.
Against John Tyler, ‘slander has never
raised its vituperative tongue.’ No, and we
hope never will, for he is bad enough without.
See the journals of the late Virginia Conven
tion, where lie is found voting lor a measure
to refuse the ballot box to every man who
does not hold iarid, whilst him who holds a
few feet of poor land may vote in as many
counties as he holds land in; .and that he may
carry out his tyranny, gives him three days
to travel in, under some circumstances; whilst
he aids in (he nomination, and supports an
old Federalist, Missouri Reatrictionist, Proc
lamationist, Tariffite, Internal Improvement,
Anti-Slaveite, Bank and no bank, and auda
ciously insults the people by refusing to an
swer.
But the ‘Augean Stable’ must be cleansed
What for? To turn out a pretty good Re
publican horse and turn in an old broken down
Federalist horse, who has actually been col
oured as a general, and a petticoat prepared
for, if not presented to him.
And Mr. Kendall must be vilified fir giv
ing up the ‘spoils as a victor,’ or in other
words, ‘the black broth of Executive patron
age’ to pursue what every man yet has a right
to do, write in a printing office.
Please to meet us, gentlemen, in Thomns
ton, on Friday after the third Monday in this
month, to select delegates to the Springs meet
ing, that we may help a little to counteract
the world’s Convention of ‘hard cider and
beer tubs’ to be held in Macon.
MANY VOTERS.
‘■'-Old Virginia .”—We staled in our re
marks, appending the statement of majorities
given in Virginia at the late election, that the
democratic majority was given much lower
than it really was. We are borne out in this
assertion by that consummately British whig
journal, the New York Times, which, for
i nee, we have detected in telling the truth.
Their statement is as follows, and it shows,
that the Universal ‘whig’ pariy, true to their
old game of brag, commenced bellowing aud
huzzaing a leetle too soon:
Democratic majorities, 26,416
Federal do 22,181
Net Democratic majority, -1 235!!!
Van Buren majorities the
same counties in 1836, 3,211
Which, according to their
own showing, is the e
normous ‘whig’ gain since
1836, of 606!!!
‘Such another British whig victory’ will
certainly demolish us.— New Era.
THE PROOF THICKENS.
| The following statement of the Hon. John Fowler,
formerly a member of Congress from Kentucky, settles |
I the question of Harrison’s black-cockade federalism
I beyonu farther doubt or dispute.
From the Louisville Advertiser.
| PROOF OF GENERAL HARRISON BEING
A BLACK COCKADE FEDERALIST.
We have just received from Lexington the following
j important correspondence;
i Capt. John Fowler is well known to every promi
i Lent man in Kentucky, and his word will not be ques
| tioned in any part of the West. A veteran in the
; cause of Jeffersonian principles—now far advanced in
life—and having no object m view save the prosperi
| tv and future happiness of his country —Capt. Fowler
j comes forward to establish an important truth :—the
j federalism of Harrison, and the fact that he wore the
Black Cockade during the “reign of terror, through the
fierce contest of 1739 and 1800, when democrats were
bathing against the memorable alien and sedition laws
es old John Adams, and struggling to prevent a war
with France, a nation that magnanimously assisted us
in the achievement of our independence.’
Capt. Fowler's statement, and the affidavit of Judge
Price, are corroborated by the real speech of Gene: al
Harrison, delivered in 18.6, in reply to Mr. Randolph.
Harrison, when in the presence of Randolph, confess-!
ed his friendship for the Black Cockade administration |
—a fact his friends endeavored to conceal, by forging !
! a speech for him, which is part of the biography of
Harrison, by Todd and Drake, which the General had
the hardihood to endorse.
Lfxington, June 27;h. 1840.
Drar Sir —ln answer to your letter of this date I
wiil say that l was in Congress, a-, a member during
the great straggle between Jeff rson and Adams,and
know the fact that William Henry Harrison, ‘ then a
Delegate from the North'VV estein Territory, was up
on the side of Mr. Adams. II: was a- edoralist and
wore the Black Cockade. Ido not recollect his speech
upon the reduction of the United States Army, though j
1 have a file of the Aurora, in which his speech ap
pears a°ain.-t the reducing the Army. My health will
not enable me to answer more fully with regard to the
exciting scenes of th .t memorable period of our history,
liespectfu.iv, your humble servant,
JOHN FOWLER.
To Cap’ain Henry Daniel.
In corroboration of Mr. Fowler’s testimony, we
have from the Ohio papers, the following affidavit of
Rob-rt Price, Esq., a highly respectable citizen of
Trumbull county, in that State, formerly a Judge of!
the County Court, aril a min exDnsiv y known I
throughou’ the Sfute. j
Eisif Coesrv, ss:
Bt lb o me Frederick P. Stephen?, one of die Judg
es of the court of Common Pleas of the couti’y ot Erie,
personalty appeared Robert Price, who, being duly
qunhticd, -auh, that he was personally acquainted with
William Henry Harrison, the present v hig candidate
for the office of President ot the United States, at the
time of the great political excitement, win n the federal
party wore the Biack Cockade as a badge ot distinc
tion. That he frequently saw him, and heard him
converse cn political matters at that time, and that he
knows him to have been a member of the federal par
tv at that time, HAS FRb.Qt'KN'l LA SEEN
HIM WEAR THE BLACK COCKADE
BADGE OF FEDERALISM ATTACHED
TO HIS HAT—and that he distinctly remembers
hearing him observe, in an argument in luvor of the
Seditiou law, in presence of Charles Pemberton and
others, that he thought it was proper for the President
and Heads of the Departments and Members ot Con
gress, TO HAVE A SHIELD MHRO'VNN
AROUND THEM, THAT THEY SHOULD
NOT BE IN THE MOUTH OF EEYRY
BLACKGUARD THAT WALKED THE
STREET.
And further deponent saith not. •

FREDERICK P. STEPHENS
From the Mississipnian, ITih ult.
Disgraceful and Butal Outrage. —On Wcdcnsdav
evening last, Iliran G. Runnels , ex president ot the
.Mississippi Union Bank, basely and brutally attacked
Gov. McNutt, in the streets, with a club. The Gov
was standing in the street in front of the door of
Messrs. Hull and Ware, when Runnels and one or
two other Directors of the Union Dank approached. —
The Governor, not expecting an assault, paid no at
tention to the party until Runnels had thrust his catie
in his face. He then turned upon his assailant and
seized his club, but Runnels got possession of i! and
struck him several severe blows, when the Governor
again closed in upon him, and Runnels desisted from
the attack.
The ruffian blows inflicted upon the Governor will,
perhaps, disable linn from his official duties for some
days—one of the small arteries in the head was cut,
and a considerable quantity of blood lost.
We know of no language sufficient to express the
baseness of this murderous assault upon the chief ma
gistrate of the State.
The cause of the assault is well known to the peo
ple of Mississippi—it.is tube found in the Governor’s
patriotic opposition to bank bobbery —in fits manly
defence of the people from the reckless game which
ihe bankers in Mississippi have been pursuing.
And has it come to this? Do those whose reckless
disregard of law’ has reduced the people of Mississippi
to th ir present miserable estate, expect by brutal force,
by lighting and shedding the blood of citizens, to quell
opposition to their course? it would indeed seem so
from the scenes our city is w itnessing. But we can
not believe that any good citizen will sanction this last
outrage upon tile people of the State. He that does
so is worse than a slave.
Let every honest man be upon his guard to ward off
the assassin attacks of this desperate band of bullying
swindlers.
