Antwerp was m a pr*f*tct state of tran q ullitv, but the excitement caused by the late t v-uts had put a stop to all business, and the. mercantile interest has consequent ly suffeied considerably.

And after a careful perusal, we hope the opinions of this eminent statesman will be contras ted with those advanced by Haynes. McDuffie and Troup, and others <4*the modern “ State t ights school.” It is peculiarly fortunate, we think, that Mr Madison, one of the fathers of the Federal Constitution, and one who lias been quoted as au t thority for the inonstrious doctrine of nuiification> should have lived long enough to put dowon so Completely a pol tical heresy ; which if permitted to grow up into general assent, wouid render the general government as inadequate to the purp - see of its formation, as it would be to its osvn pie servation Were this Mr. Madison's only claim to public gratitude, his name should bo revered as one of the benefactors of his country Our readers cannot but be aware, that on all constitu tional questions Mr. Madison’s opinion- have al 1 ways carried the weigh' of the highest authority; a. and the clearness and force of rgumeut with hich they have been urged on the [ire ent occa sion, must c nvince any unprejudiced n.ind of their justness, even without the sanction of his I gr eat name. From this letter it will bo seen that Mr.Madison holds, that the state governments, separately, ate not completely sovereign becauso the peo. le yi each of the states, acting in their Inglie t sove reign capacity, delegated a part of ihoir sovereign power to the general, as well as apart to the state governments; and that consequently, the supreme power is divided between the govern ment of the United Mates, and ihe governments of tl.e individual states. And further that the umpire, established by the people, in theii said sovereign capacity, for the decision of all contro versies, which might, arise concerning the boun daries of jurisdiction, is the Judiciary of the Uni* ed Stales. And “that the constitution is a com* pact; that its text is to be expounded according to the prov sisns fir exp'unding it—making par t of the compact; and that none of the parties can rightfully renounce the expounding provision, more than any other : -r* ' It would be wt;l u ... pe pie of this state would contrast the sentiments of Gov.

Mr. La oar is a gentleman of respoctable, though not of th highest order of legal talents, and possesses integrity of character above corruption from any other source than the violence of his own feelings. Coolness of temper, sufficient to withstand tho often irritating and perplexing attacks of the bar, as well a considers* ttons of personal friend hip and hosti ity, is a re quisite peculiarly called for in a Judge.
