If it can I proved to US, that the protective sy stem is to be the I": , ,-.(l policy of the country; that the internal improVe r- ,Hi . “tern, invi nted by Mr. Calhotlh, is to be extend.

At the last session of Congress, we obtained some . ‘advantage—very little, ;t is true, but it :s in fact mid snb. Instance some advantage. ’From persons ot the south, ■ iS«ho have been travelling in the north, we derive the j I information, tint th" principle of free trade is gaining ground, eopaoi*/fy among die most enlightened of the j | manufacturers. Taking all this into view, why should ; I we hazard every thing, when we have the expectation I ui accomplishing our objects without violent weatures ? :j Let us pursue the victory we have obtained, with pfu- I ib -v'c and caution—let us act with policy—and the time 'j I is not distant, when between all the states, it will be ■ Imm in peace, and hurmony; wlien the constitution will j f L s'rictly construed, and literally followed in its letter land spirit ; when a state of this Union will be at per- . T c: lilw r'y to pursue what policy it pleases fer its fit-1; l rnal itbjjrovcment, and to adopt what municipal regu- j 1 .tions it may tliiuk fit, without the intcrmciUling.uf oib- j i r stales ; and when every citizen will bo free to pursue j I'what avocation he likes best, and to give to his industry 'aid the scope of which it may be susceptible, that he : emay he fully rewarded for his labour and physical n« |v.. 11 as iiH.iitin exertions. Then, and only then, will »r*: south bugin i« breath again the pure and unvouUm •jL'iafe.i air of freedom. \\ iilo on the subject of regular nominations, We wdi 1 st-mV.-nv tin ; opportunity for expressing our surprize, . |t at t!;o ticket i..r electors as President and Vice-i’re ;>• lent ot tin U.

I tract : 1 ** Mr. Ciav rose and congratulated the friends: j h f the American System on the triumph of the j Protective Policy, which was about to be eon- j , j -itmated by the passage of the bill. The ( ' Southern Senators, by voting against the inde- , *(/.• ■. postponement, must be considered as fixing I'heir approbation to the principle of protection ] j w hich was embraced in it. Mr. C. also relied; , | m the t uteri mi nation recognized in the bill be- I tween the protected and unprotected articles, , I in which respect the bill conformed to his rcso-j . | 1 ition which had been so strongly reprobated at i the beginning of the session ; but in which gen- , tlemen wore willing note to acquiesce. I he, 1 protecting principle being adopted . after the pay* c-iealot' the def t, iron/d /care to Congress here j after no other duty hut to earn/ it out and for -( tit)/ it" ! ! I ‘ Hear ! Hear ! ! My country ; the foregoing j h the strain of exultation in which the Ameri-I f cv\ System Chief encourages his co-adjutors Lin fixing upon this country, (once free.) a sys tem of fraudulent and unconstitutional legisla ; ■ .'a which will, if not abandoned, involve it in min. Should not every citizen now' speak out, .ml act independently, in resisting oppression cud injustice ; by every means in his power, that is peaceable and right and that may be cf !■ dual Then deny yourselves tlie enjoyment, i ■ a those luxuries and even conveniences which vou have long been in the habit of receiving | frum the North, and in particular all American 1 protected articles, and as the high duties on for- I eign goods will go into the Treasury of the U.u States and not into the coffers of. the greedy j manufacturers, use and consume all foreign in stead of American Goods, until the protective, system is abandoned. Commerce has been the. i tr.cans of paying the national debt of the Rt\o lat ion and the late Avar; and of giving encour agement to agriculture A: many useful aits, and, ! of keeping one arm of the national defence (the, Navv) in a respectable condition ; and shall wc now abandon, or even neglect, so important an, interest, so well proven ; for one ot doubtiul re-j salt, that like *■ the horse leach, cries continual-, I Ty, give—give,” and which, when perfected, is tract : do subject three fourths of the laiounng poor of ; V cw-Jlngland to the coalition of slavery ! or at best of dependence on I hc wealthy manufac turers ? No ! we must not abandon commerce, the tried f iend, tor any new* schemes of inde pendence. The south have abundant means for' la profitable fjicign commerce, at.d sea jxirts, ( iquite good enough : and why shall we continue longer tributary to the north ? A Rail-road j will soon afford additional facility of intercourse, jbfctlvcefj Charies'on and Augusta, and a fiuo na-| ! vigabi'.* stream for lialf the year, affords easy, and cheap communication w ill. Savannah, from ■which ports the whole interior can be easily sup plied on better terms, than by going to the north and building up northern cities with our com merce and agriculture, whilst our own are no ' elected and languish :—’Tis high time to wake O . * up to our true interest. Our difference .s more in opinion as to the method of redress, than in the necessity or event of it. The American protective svstem is odious to men who love li berty and equal rigir.s, and it must be abandon ed by Congress, before the country can be re stored to tranquility : Now is the time to act, |and let every man do his duty as an American j citizen, and the couivry will Continue sec are and prosperous in Union. | One Voice from Richmond County. 1 *' From the (JeorgtA (Cazitte. i Reduction. —In pursuance of our promise we will here proceed with the subject of Reduction. It is true that nullification seems to be the or der of the day ; but in os much as the Court Mandamus has been definitively disposed of, and the Tariff and Bank Bills have Lo h assumed a shape in which they witty quietly rest until ano- I i tber session of Congress, w e deem it altogether proper at this moment to cast about for a draft by which our Stale finances shall be placed up on some more certain Cz convenient fooling than at present. We confess that with tlie exception j !of one or two points of view, wc do consider a pro- ! qcct for a reduction of the members in our Le jgislalurc important, more as. a, financial than as 'a political measure. If §15,000 per annum were | demons rated to be competent to accomplish the L j same quantum of useful Legislation, that 880,- \ • 000 does, without the accompaniment of any of ; j the* ills bv the latter amount, surely a universal j 'cry of amen, would be heard in favor ot the plan | Iby the Ivs ser sum. That we would ever suc ceed in sUudi a demonstration, wo do not even • attempt to at.'dnn ; but that the substantial truth tj of such a proposition is altogether visionary, w-ej cannot admit. Wc are aware that any material Jimiiiu ion, by most oi the schemes heretofore ij suggested, would sensibly a fleet the relative le-j; gislative strength of the great btute parlies; unduly; but that such wouW tie its result un-| der the one about to be propped, we have not ■ as yet perceived. We will thei’efore proceed, j firs?, to the exhibition of its featured, without the, sliglieSi reference to i’s probable opeiU f i ( iu upon; relative j;nity s rongth ; and secondly, u pie enunciafion of the peculiar advantages,, which wc concc. v e it possesses over what oßicr? j systems we have o.vaniined. j Ist. Divide the Ci.Pii’G State, Including pros-: pcctivcly the present county of Cherokee, intoj 32 Election Dis ricts, containing as nearly as practicable, an equal amount of white popula- J lion ; and then give to each District one Senator j and two Representatives in tlie Legislature, j This may be done either by groupin g together j . counties as they now stand, or entire i.w-*w lines j , may be run, based upon a calculation on fora- j cing the probable future changes in the relaf'vci , population of different sections of the State, as to accomplish tin* same object. T hese shall bi constitute Elec ion Districts for members to the j legislature, w hile the old lines shall remain for t all the purposes for Which they are now used, , except the one specified. ] 2nd. Let the sessions of the Legislature be. ( biennial, instead of annual. 3d. Limit the term of each session to five ( weeks, with a reservation that it shall be lawful; j to sit a longer period, provided the members will , defray the expenses of the extra silting of each i session from their own pockets, retaining the ( present provision for call sessions in cases ol; £ sudden emergency : Or change the per diem j , compensation to a fixed salary based upon the; t present /*er diem pay for five weeks, retainingi still the aforesaid provision. | < The peculiar advantages of this plan wc con-1 , ceive are the following : | i 1. A palpable reduction of expense in the; direct ratio of the present number of our mem- ; bars to DO —this amount diminished one half— ] and this again by the precise difference between , the length of the usual sessions and five weeks, | which will not be very far removed from the j lesser sum first above mentioned. 2. A candidate, who, incompetent by ignor- • auce, yet popular in his own neighborhood, by : , kind offices er unprincipled finesse, could secure , his election in his own county, would hacessart- j j Iv fail, if required to obtain it among two or| . three counties; and consequently none but those | , of unexceptionable general character, embracing j . the best talents, would represent the State. 3. The Legislature itself would become ast much less liable to bribery and corrupt coali-J tion against the true interest of the people, as would precisely equal the difference between . such an influence on an ignorant, and that on an enlightened body. j 4. The advantages on the side of wisdom, and despatch of business are evident. 5. An exemption, if but partial, from popu lar commotion, necessarily engendered and per petuated by too frequent popular assemblages. 6. From the admitted superiority of our Le gislative intellect, an elevation of rank among| our sis’er States, a circumstance not altogethr unimportant. 7. It places representation upon as wc con ceive, the only sound principle in a republic, that of population alone, without regard to wealth or other circumstance. We have always considered the question of| making wealth constitute a part ot tlie basis of representation as dangerous as well as delicate, and calculated better perhaps than any other, to work changes in the form of our government, or to throw insurmountable obstacles in the way of its peaceful operation. From the Georgia Journo J. 'Extract of a letter from onr New-York Correspondent, dated July 13, 1532. I have been an infidel on the subject ofCho lent. lam now a believer. There are circum stances attending the disease, such as 1 have never seen —such particularly are the spasms j t which take place, even an hour after death. As ' soon ns I became satisfied that ihe disease was : epidemic, I resolved to remain in the city, where i skilful aid could be had at once. I have had what tliev call the premonitory symptoms—a singular i feeling in the abdominal region lor four or five davs, ending in diarrhoea. The moment the lat-! ter made its appearance, I applied to medical ' jaiJ, auJ was completely relieved in a day. Al most everv body I sec has b>on similarly affect ed. Os two things you may rest perfectly sa-; itisfied, should it make its appearance in Geor gia—first, that it is not contagious —secondly,* that if taken in time, it is easily cured; pro-; vided always, the patient has been temperate m his habits, and does not permit himself to be ’a lanncd. it has made awful havoc here already among the dissolute. It appears to have ape- ! culiar spite against drunkards, and those who; ! lattempt to run away from it. It is a well ascer- r mine 1 fact, and you will see it so s ated in seve !|ral of the newspapers, that in a single house in Laurons-strect, ten out of thirteen prostitutes: have been swept off. ,j “ It is melancholy to see the prostration of business here ; and more so, to witness the dis tress among laboring men produced by it. Broadway vou would hardly know, so far as it is indicated by the crowds of people who usu ally throng its side walks. The street in which; I reside has been, for a number of nights pasta | almost as still and gloomy as the most retired! ispot in the country. Yesterday’s report being! ! favorable, and the evening being unusually plea-;; iJsant, produced a little animation. But still it,j | was very gloomy-. It is hoped by many, tbatjj the worst is over here. A few days will show.;! | “If the disease travels South, you must, by ; all means, exert yourselves to produce among your people, calmness, cheerfulness, cleanliness, \ carefulness against -exposure to the weather, but; above all, temperasck in eating and drinking,\ and prompt attention to the prt monitory symp- 1 j toms. These things being attended to, there is j Ino danger, except to those whose constitutions have been injured by excesses. Extract of another letter, dated July I f sh. “ Some of the pious people here, speak with I great apparent satisfaction of the havoc which the cholera will probably make among ourslavcs. ; 1 tell them ourslaves are iflO per cent, better olf | than their white negroes here—arc a better race jof people in every way —and not hall so much | exposed to the ravages of the cholera; their mas ters would stand bv them, and not runaway from! i them, as the rich have runaway from the poor, here, too generally leaving them to all the hor-i jrors of their fate —the newspapers all the while consoling them with the assurance that the poor land destitute, the careless, Arc. arc the only vic tims of the disease. Here is philanthropy for jyou. Can vou not get up an arrangemeh to send I missionaries to christianize, and to civilize and i humanize these people ! 1 assure you they need I some such assistance. Their conduct has been• I shameful, as regards (lie poor, in this pcs ilence. j 1 speak of those who have taken themselves to: their iieels; and not ul those noble spirits, who,! having resolved to meet the storm, are found atj their posts, and constantly engaged in alleviating' the misery that surrounds them.” from the Washington Globe. MOVEMENTS OK 1 HE AiIMV. Major General Scott arriv'od at Chicago on ; ■ the 10th instant. At the earnest request of the j' [Captain of the steam boat blieidon 1 hompson, i an,! in consequence of the extreme heat ot the; weaCtcr, he landed two ot the six companies, from C'U't Monroe, at Fort Gratiot, to be taken; up by citl.K?r the Superior or tlie "W illiam Penn. Before his arrival at Mackinaw, four cases, re sembling cholc ra, occurred on board the ’1 homp-j son. file four were placed in the Hospi-j tal on that Island, iiud the troops ro-embaruedj on tlie morning of the Bth, all well. At da.V-j light, six Cases of cholera, were reported, and in« the course of the twenty.hours, thirteen on rift veil others were seized ; and down to the evening of the llth, seventy.sown were attack ed, ai.i'l nineteen died. Two new cases occur red, and ~ix enlisted men died during Gie night. of the llth'. j ’ The troop's were landed at Fort Dearborn oivj, tlie morning tvi the llth. Most of the tnuabi- a tants of Chicago I»d fled, and it was difficult ttfi] obtain an express. Although the cases havei| j been comparatively »Twer since they were land-;j j ed, and comfortably lodged, yet there were not, if among the lour compauiNS of artillery mure : t; well men than were absolutely wanted to [ the sick, and bury the dead. !•» Major Whistler, with two companies, march- 1 cd out of Fort Dearborn to the distance of two miles, to make room and avoid taking the infec tion* It was General Scott’s intention, if the con tinned prevalence of disease rendered it impossi- j bio to march with an effective force, to proceedij ( alone to General Atkinson’s Camp, which, on;! t the 9th, was on White Water Creek, 35 miles ( from Fort Winnebago. * General Atkinson had with him 450 regular troops, and about 2100 mounted volunteers. The <• enemy wore Id miles distant from him, about j < 800 strong. The country, in many places, was! impassable, and much tiiile had been necessarily j consumed in throwing bridges over streams,! Ac. No sickness is reported to have occurred among the troops under his command. Os the offk ers with General Scott, Capt. Gall, Lieutenants Thornton, Muynadier and McDuf fie wore seized with the Cholera, but were bet ter at the last dates. Capt. James Monroe cs- ( } caped with a slight attack while on the passage. < In addition to these facts from official com munications, we state another, on the authority, of a private letter, which demonstrates the value! of temperance, as a preventive. A company of artillery from Point Comfort,! , belonging to" the Ist regiment, “ when leaving; Ncw-York, voluntaiily pledged themselves to each other, to drink no ardent spirits, during the campaign. They passed through the fire un scathed, except the loss of one man, and went on last Tuesday, (the 10th,) under the command of Lieut. E. Sproat Sibley, in the steam boat William Penn.” From the Richmond 11 h g of July 30- Thc Indian War. —A letter has been re ceived by the editor of the Uniontown Obser ver, from the seat ot the Indian W ar, stating that a general engagement with the Indians was daily expected, Black Hawk, with near a thou sand warriors, had taken his station between Rock and Wisconsin rivers, and appeared de termined to give battle. Gen. Atkinson, wilhj between three and four thousand men, was with-' in a few miles of them, and expected immediate*! Iy to attack them unless they retreated. Fromij I the great superiority in number of the whites, it was supposed that an engagement would re sult in a general massacre of the Indians. FROM NORTH CAROLINA. Extract of a letter from Wurrenton, July 11. “ Mr. Macon was not placed on our Elccto-| ! ra i Ticket, from a disposition to extend to him an ! exemption from the performance of a duty which j his near relations conceived might be inconveni ent to him. As to his preferences for President and \ iCc President, there cannot exist the teas' j doubt —He is more open and unros rved on this,!' •ban he lias been on any oth*-r question, except, perhaps, the L. S. Bank, for many years. He hesitates nor at all times to say, that if lie lives, j he shall vdm-for Jackson and Van Bufeli ; and that he vt rv much fears ue nevershatl havesuch anchor President as General Jackson. “ Mr. Macon’s opinions on the subject of the Tariffare vwli known. He early foresaw rhe lamentable consequences to which it would load, and emphatically warned Mr. Calhoun in 1610, to beware of the evils which must necessarily re sult from any thing like governmental interfer ence with the labour and pursuilsol ihe country. . His counsels were then treated with supercilious j j contentpt. Hits sage advice was then viewed as | the idle suggestions of a man who was tar behind ; the age in which he lived. He was disregarded: | the tide swept on —and what now is the state|j of affairs ? This very tide is now about to be made suddenly to recede and leave j the Ship of State a stranded wreck.—Mr. | Macon is and always has been tmcOmpro misingly opposed to the Tariffon principle. He is equally opposed to tlie mad remedy of Nulli-"i | ficatioh. His remedy is, to strive continually for relief in the councils of the country, and | until it is afforded, to live entirely within our i selves. Os him at least it may be. said that his | precepts and example go together. Every thing he uses is the product u! las dim farm. IX Touch not, taste not, handle not,’ is his mot- j to. Osi sic omnes! . , , « It is calculated, that the former friends of | Mr. Crawford and the real original friends of: Gen. Jackson, will at the next election support ' Jackson and Van Buren. If so, there cannot, Ibe a doubt of the success ol the r licket in N. Carolina.” Knoxville, May 30‘. Survey of tlie Tesistessee River On Monday last, a company of United States Engineers under the direction ol Lol. Long, accompanied by the members of the Board ot Internal Improvement for Eus Tennessee, Start ed from this place in boats constructed for the occasion, lor the purpose ol making a minute reconnoissanee and survey of the I ennessee riv er as far as to tlie Alabama and Tennessee line. The corps consists of Col. Long, Lieuts. Lea, Danccv, Hentzehuau, and \ an VV yek, assigned for the purpose by the Secretary ot W ar, and Mr. Baker, a civil engineer who comes highly recommended from the State ot Alaba ma, where he had for some time been employ ed.—Though the preparations have been rna.de in a few days, yet from the general arrange ments, from the complete apparatus, procured under the superintendance dt Col. Long, from the zeal, industry, and character ot the gentle men concerned, some of whose services have been frequently mentioned with high commen dation, we have the best guarantee ot their a bility faithfully to .perform Iho duties entrusted ,o them, and may confidently anticipate tke most favorable results. Col. Long has already made a survey ot the Hoiston from Kingsport, in Fid liven county, to Knoxville, having descended it for that purpose ; and Lieut. Lea, for a similar purpose, descend ed Chucky river from Bumpass cove Iron Works, to the junction of that river with the j French Broad, and from thence to its conflu ence will! the H.ilston four miles above Knox ville. We shall hcrefore when the present ex ploration shall have been finished, have a com plete map of the Tennessee from the Alabama line to this place as well -•><=> A-o.« born i n the ■ joints' mentioned on the Hoiston and French | Broad and Chuchy rivers. i The commissioners expect to continue on the river with the Engineers two or ’hree weeks ; they will then return to this place, and as soon as it is possible for them to do so, they will pio ceed to make contracts for removing the ob structions to ho navigation. Thus has he groat work, which promises so nranv benefits to East Tennessee, commenced in earnest. We shall wait with much anxiety to see the report of the engineers when they shall have complied th ■ survey, which will perhaps be in the course of two montnsi— Keg.
