AUGUSTA. 18th August, 1832.
In conformity to a request made by several of the'
■ -irons of Richmond County, the citizens of tho county,
th s day assembled at the City Hall. On motion of Col.
Wm. Cummins. (Jen. Valentine Walker was called to
thi Char, and James M’Laws, Esq. appointed Sccre-
A T, ,c and Resolutions were introduced by
Cel. ’ .'..am Camming, and read by him.
A : which, Gen Flournoy offered the followingpre.
m. . resolutions is a substitute to tiiose offered by
Coiotu l Cammiag, viz.
The people ot Richmond county, arc willing to ex-
I’rcss t ie views they entertain on the subject which so
t: n h ag-.tati s the public mind; but in doing so, they:
v ;.i lon.'-'ar to use language calculated to wound the
t- h: ,v oi others, or in any wise to ascribe improper
ni-divi s, tiiose who may differ from themselves in o
f-- Those who have declared their determination
{ o r .■*ist the constitute«! authorities of the general go
vernment, (the tendency of which wo fear might lead
to civil warm these states.) may, and no doubt do, ]
t ink themselves justified in the course flicy prescribe!
f- r them wives. Whilst on the other hand, wo, who
d;th r tram the m, have a right to expect that onr opin
vons also, will be duly considered and respected—Both 1
si,;cs cannot be right. But it should be considered that
wo are all afloat in the same vessel of state, upon a tem
restnvn ocean, audit it sin’es, the right and the wrong
must go down together.
We arc v to admit that there may be just cause
'■ dissatisfaction arising from the operation of the ta.
ri;f regulations, as respects onr particular interests, but
u ought net to be expected, that in a general system of
legislation, all persons can he equally benefitted or c
quallv injured, by every or any act of the general go
vernment. It must he recollected, that at tho forma
v. -;i of onr constitution, the spirit of compromise and
of mutual concession, was found to be indispensably no
-mr.snry, in order to bring about the great ends for which
the government was designed. The same spirit has
m imrm.lv prevailed and stiil prevails. Tho minority in
Gongriss, yielding to cur just remonstrances, have les
sored the burden of which, vve complain, about one
third, and it is questionable whether they could have
dm. more, consistently with the plighted faith of t—c
nr:ion. Should it be found by experience, that stul grea
' r r>: .iuction can be m ;de with safety, vve «. ntertata ne

it. ads oT the Trr it having offered us a cou.proin. e,
“ - declare ourselves willing to accept it as such, with
the same spirit in which it is offered, (at least tor the
1 risen*,) looking forv.--.rd with hope and confluence to a
heticr state of things, when the national debt is pa.d.
■and the agitation of the present times shall have sul>-
sided. Li the mean time, wo earnestly recommend to
our fcllow-citizens in other counties, to remain calm
and tranquil, forbearing to engage in any sch.em.es con
nected with the cause of Nunification, or ouier intem
perate measures, calculated to provoke projects ot re
taliation in others, r itbont the hope pi benefit to cur-
|j Be. .t therefore Raohed, by the people cf Richmond
fj county. That wc consider the Constitution of the United
Jj States, as the great Charter of our rights and ot our
, liberties, and the laws of the land, entitled to our cbedi
! cncc and respect.
jj Resolved, That i: be earnestly recommended to our 1
Delegation at the next session of Congress, to use their
b* :t exertions to dimin»sii the unties on import®, cr if
this should be found impracticable, to exempt articles of
t»r.-:t necessity from the burden of taxation, and place
thv same upon the luxuries of life, that it may he- inadts
' to fall upon the rich, who are beet able to bear it.
Rt calved. That vvr consider the scheme of Nuilifica-
I 1
t,o?i, (and all measures connected with it,) which are
calculated to invalidate or to bring into disrepute the
Comntuiion and laws of our country, as greatly to be
deprecated.
R-'ftolrrd, That tb° caurs“ pursued by our R-’nntor
John Fonsmi, and of our Representative Jvvirs M.
Wave, arc justly entitled to our approbation and res
, pert.
Rr*o : rrd, That vve deem it highlv inexpedient, to np-
I' jtn! Delegates to the proposed Convention at Mil
ledgevule, ia N jvernber next, as recommended at tho
lute mcetir-ffc in Athens and Lexington; because we do
no: think it proper at this or a* any other time, to con
fide dictatorial powers to any set of men whatsoever :
Because tho high authority which is sough* to bo given
1 to the -aid Convention, belonging exclusively to the pro
pie, ought not to be delegated by them to the extent ami •
for tin purpose’ contemplated: Because, in -fine, wc
j! think it unsafe and dangerous, at a tiim hkc the present, j
j■ to prostrate the whole authority of the country at the
( Ret of ft few individuals, liable ta be inflamed by their ,
own nr-sriotm and by the feeßrn-s of others—men, who’
U 1 ~
, posr.li/ may be carried forward by a temper and dispo
; c :ticn I .trio calculated for safe deliberation, and who are ;
, not even to be restrained by tiic wholesome check, of a
final reference of thrir proceedings far the approval or !
; disapprobation o r the people.
i| Capt. F. J. Black than o/Thred tiic following resolution, ]
j| viz. i
[We could not procure the resolution of Mr. Black, j
.It had for its object, an adjournment of the meeting to |l
some more centra! p .rt of the county .J
After much debate, and after Col. Cumming, General
Flournoy. Edward F. Campbell, Esq. Cap*. E. J. Cluck,
John Forsyth, Esq. C. B. Lamar, Esq. and others, had
|j addressed the citizens assembled, the chairman pro- ;i
j J reeded to put to vote the several resolutions which had:
been proposed.
Tiic resohiti m offered by Capt. Black was rejected. .
• i The preamble and resolutions offered by Gen. Flour-,
ji rvoy were rejwtc-1.
; The preamble and resolutions off red by Col. Cum. ■
i miag, were then taken up and adopted in the words fol-lj
. I lowing, and the blanks filled by the chairman by resoiu- |i
tion of the meeting, viz :
1 | I j
] The citizens of Richmond county have convened, with jj
: a profound sense of the importance of a crisis which may
decide the destinies, not of one age and country alone,; j
bet oi the remotest generations and the most distant, 1
I • I]
; regions. j j
The American people arc probably soon to determine, [
; whether a system of national liberty can be preserved by]]
justice and moderation, or like so many other human i
i] contrivances, must be saerificod to the blindness and i
’ madness of passion. The deliberations of this day, in- • i
’ considerable in themselves, borrow a solemn interest q
i
Irani their connection, however slight, with the general ’
, n suit. In the discussion of quest may affect
i the very existence of the Republic, we shall endeavour I
fat h ast to make some approach towards that purity of
feeling which distinguished its illustrious founders. We j
invoke tho spirit of that patriot hen), that Saint of liber-!;
■ ty, whose name excites in every virtuous bosom a vme-,
II ration almost religious—of that Washington .who led our !
ij armies to victory, and guided our councils to harmony j
r and union—who has left us in hi® parting advice, a sac. :
It red legacy* of patorn.al wisdom, second only to the teach- 1
| ings of inspiration itself. jj
That our resolutions will obtain the approbation cf all,
we cannot expe ct; but from all we may justly claim that
! they be received in the same spirit in which they are j
adopted—in a temper uninfluenced by resentment, either
!, towards individuals or parties. If we know ourselves* ,;
' all minor considerations are on this occasion, entirely
i lest in the deepest solicitude for the institutions, the ,
i peace and the happiness of our country.
Resolved, That although, the tariffing.-, recently enact -
: ed, is a decided amelioration of the system : We skill
'believe that'it will be unequal in its operation, and there- i
j fore unjust, and inconsistent with the spirit of the con
jstitution, which demand® that all public burdens should
1 .1 be equitably apportioned among those by whom they
1! arc borne.
. i
I Resolved, That we will employ all proper means to
l free ourselves from the anticipated evils ofthe prospect
ive tariff, but that we think they have been greatly ex
aggerated, and that some of the remedies proposed
would he far more deleterious th -nthe Turiffitsolf.
Resolved, That considering the doctrine ofnullifica
] tion false in theory, and believing that, in practice, it
] would prove most disastrous to our country; wc will
' [ not give our votes to any candidate, either for Congress
i] or the State Legislature, who is an advocate of that
!’ doctrifte.
1 Resolved, That a committee of three, namely: Cohi
i Wm. Cu.M-.nxc, Judge J. P. Kino &. Aim. Sr attghter, Esq.
■'j be appointed ro ascertain, by direct correspondence with ■
| the candidates for Congress, and for the Legislature, j
! from this county, what are their sentiments in regard to]
'ijnullification, and to publish such answers as maybe ro-;
Ml * 1
I Ctr lV «U.
Resolved, That we disapprove the recommendation of j
the meeting at Athens, to appoint Delegates to a State
ii Convention, which shall be invested with “full power
’ to miiiutoi/t, preserve, and defend, the rights and privi- 1
'■ ledges of the free citizens of this state that the dele
'j j gat ion of a power so broad and unrestrained would, at
I ,] ar:y time, be indiscreet, and at a moment of excitement
ykc tho present exceedingly dangerous.
Revalued, That it is advisable, for the present, toi
ij leave the subject of the tariff to tiic state legislature,
! which can deliberately provide or recommend, some
-prudent and d,.f.uitc mode of expressing the public will,
! should such a incaciire be deemed expedient. But that]
i] if the general prevalence ot a contrary opinion should
: render ii propt r for us to concur in the election of dele
j' gat j;- to the proposed Convention, we shall make the ap-i
, ] with a protest against the authority ot any
- 'i pots of that Convention, which are not duly ratified by.

Resolved. That we have seen, with extreme regret,!
’ the ha 1 * ■ and unfounded objections which have been
’ 'urr- 1 .-gainst our .'Senator and Representative, Messrs.l

An interes inir debate has takes place in the
British House of Commons cu the subject of
Poland, and to the credit of that body be it said,
hardly one unqualified attempt to vindicate ihc
•I conduct of Russia was made. It would appear
Jthat more than twelve months aga an urgent ap
plication was addressed by the French Govern
inent to that of England fur their co-operation
in an urgent remonstrance to the EmperorNict
j olas, which then met with a decided nega iva
■j It is however consolatory at this late hour, to
find the British Cabinet admitting the justice of
the claims of Poland, and asserting their right to
interfere.
The affairs of Holland and Belgium are stili
in a state of perftet uncertainty. The last Lon
don papers say that the official answer of the
King of Holland to the last protocol had not
been received, but httie doubt was entertained |
that monarch would refuse to evacuate Antwerp.
The accounts from Paris are not later than
those we received by the way of Rochelle.
The London Courier says—We understand,
from a source on which we can place reliance,
that the new Ministerial arrangements in Prais
are nearly completed. M. Drnrv has consent

certain conditions, which it is expected will be
conceded. Marshal Souxt and General Skuas?

TARIFF OF 1832.
Extracts front the address of Mr. Jrssr. Speight, mem
her of Congress from North. Carolina, to his Consti.
tuents
! I should do injustice to my feelings were I to,
! forego the opportunity of addressing you a lew
reflections on the state of our public affairs.
!This paramount obligation, at all times an mi*
■portant otic, is rendered the more so fit present,
ifrom the fact that the eyes of the nation have
j been turned to lids Congress with an intense mix-,
jietv, in the hope ihat, causes of dames'ic inqni
!etude wliich have to a considerable degree threa
j toned the permanency of this Union, would be
j removed. The oppressions under which the
!Southern portion of this Union have been made
|to labor from the partial and injurious effects of
[the tariff', have been a source of just and almost
| universal complaint. This subject was at an
joarK day of tiie session brought to the notice
!of Congress by the President in his annual mes
sage, in that energetic and impressive manner j
j which so eminently distinguish'd his whole con
| duct.
That part of it was referred to the Commit
lleo on Manufactures, who after a protracted de
lay of near five months, reported a bill which,
j with some slight alterations and modifications,
,has passed the House of Representatives.—
! What will be its fate in the Senate, i cannot
'pretend to say.
1 do not wish to be understood as appearing!
|the advocate of this bill, any further than its!
|beneficial effects on the country, compared with;
| the tariff of 1828. I voted for it, because 1
j thought it decidedly preferable to the existing
law. And I was not, prepared to reject it bc
i cause it did not go the whole of what i thought
: right and just. As I have neither leisure nor
j disposition to enter into a tariff* dissertation, I
■shall barely submit a prac'ical statement of the
tariff' of the present session, compared with
that of 1828, so far as regards the protected ar
ticles, and leave you to judge which is tlie best.
It is true, that it, is by no means such a mo
dification as I could have -wished for, but it is the
ibest that could be obtained, and the question is|
‘simply this : —Will the South kike the present j
i reduction, and abstain from open resistance to
ithc law of the land, in the hope that in a short
.time something more beneficial can be obtained?
or will they at once plant their feet on the
{ground of an entire abandonment of the pro
tective policy, and thereby produce a conflict
; which must end in the total separation of the
j Union.
i 1 believe I may venture the assertion, that
j Almighty God never did, nor never will create
the man who can possibly detest the protective
system more than J do. Yet a love of country:
{compels me to say, that, however much I depre-j
calc it, I would prefer it a liuie longer, than to{
;see measures adopted to get rid of it, which if;
persisted in, must of necessity end in producing:
. a state of anarchy and confusion in the conn
try. And 1 call upon all those who are for re-j
■ sisting the tariff law by force, to pause, and So-i
ilemnly pause, before they take a boundless leap
•in the dark which must end in their toial de
struction, or prostrate the principles of human;
i liberty.
The present tariff has been rivetted on the
•country by the aristocracy who, not only in this, j
(but in all countries, aim at nothing short of the i
I entire prostration of the people’s interests. The
j I mist however is fast dispelling from their eyes,
'land I have not a shadow of doubt that ere five
{years shall roll round, this abominable system, i
with all i s votaries, will be by an indignant
(determined to be free) people consigned to the
I tomb of merited scorn and just contempt. In
that event, in the certainty of which I have not
I a shadow of doubt, what a consoling reflection
it will bo to those who by pursuing a temperate
course have contributed to produce this state of
things, to behold the general peace and iuirmo
-1 ny which will again pervade our beloved coun
try. My opinion has ever been, that to pros.
Irate the tariff, it was only necessary to dis
mantle it of the evil of obscurity whi*h con
! ceals its deformity, and expose hsnaked defects
ito public view. That the bill winch wo have
recently passed contributes in no small degree
to accomplish this desirable object, 1 am confi
; dent. Public opinion is every day becoming
j more and more opposed io the system, and if wc
can have fortitude to withs and the angry pas
sions of the human mind, at no very distant day
I the lalloi box will entirely relieve us of the ci
vil. It is not true, that the South exclusively
i bears the burdens of the tariff. There is one
j-class of the northern people who fee! its perni-
I cions effects to the same'extent which wc do.
’ That class of jieople then which consumes
i coarse cotton and woollens, as consumers feel
j the effects of the tariff' as much as wo do ; and
ilif I am not greatly mistaken in the ‘ signs of the
|| times,’ they"are fast awakening to a sense of
iheir oppressions. Having recently, to some
extent,* travelled in that section of the country,
I am prepared to speak knowingly of the state
of public feeling dir l 0 ast in Pennsylvania, the
j hot bed of the tariff The laboring part of the
j|community in that State are as much opposed
II to the Tariff as wc of the South are ; and it is
ionly by a kind of political legerdemain that the
j system is kept up. They arc permitted to see
only the fair side of the picture by their repre
sentatives, who arc acting with the aristocracy,
and in direct opposition to the known will of at
least two-thirds of their constituents. The hie
torv of all countries furnish abundant proof of
the fact, that for a while the amtitioiut politician
■ and aspiring demagogue may blind the people,
and lead them in chains of darkness,, to accom
plish his selfish designs, but, like truth, their
> will is mighty, and will finally prevail. We
f have recently seen a glorious proof of this in
. the restoration of the whig ministry in England,
mi And the principle of the conics: in both coun-
I tries are analogous v> each other: it is the aris»-
- ‘ocracy against the people, and may God send
ihe defendants a happy deliverance.
THE BORDER WAR.
The latest intelligence we have from our north-wes
em frontier, is contained in the following article, copied
’ rom the Detroit Journal of August 1.
Defeat of Black Hawk. —By the schr. Pre
•j sident, which arrived here yes erdav, letters
have been received from Fort Howard, which
announce the gratifying intelligence of the de
feat of Black Hawk and his warriors. The
| details of the engagement are contained in the
i following letter, which has been politely furmsh
icd us.
Fort Howard, July 25th. 1832.
Dear Sir : Last evening wc received the in
telligence of a battle having been fought be-;
,tween Gen. Dodge and his division, and the Sacs'
and Foxes, in which the former were victorious.
| The particulars, as stated in Captain Flympton’s
letter to Captain Clark, are these: Parquctt,
{with a few Winnebugoes, left the Portage a
; few days since, to proceed to General Dodge’s
j army, and guide them to the Sac camp. On Sat-'
jurday morning last, 21s* instant, General Dodge'
jsciit his Adjutant to rc»>ort to General Atkin-1
•son of his movements. Ho had not proceeded
{far, before he came up with the Sues, and Foxes,;
j trail, directing their course to the Wisconsin;
{river. He immediately returned and reported
ithe circumstance to Colonel Dodge, who pursu
jed and overlook them about sundown of the i
some day, on the left bank of the Ouisccnsin,
and about 40 miles from Fort Winnebago, when'
the fight ensued —the Indians at the same time
i retreating. The night being very dark, they
found it impossible to pursue them. They had
{found, when Parquctt left them, which was cur
ly next morning, sixteen Indians killed, raid but:
one white man killed, and four wounded. Par-'
quett thinks not Jess than 40 Indians fell in the
, engagement.
General Santander. —It affords us great plea
sure to lay before our readers the following cx-;
cellent proclamation of the President of New]
{Grenada, on his arrival at Santa Martha. Gen.
S imt vxdeii is a Patriot, and his Proclamation i
does honor to his heart as well as to the groat i

My respected Countrymen. On touching:
again the shores of our beloved .country, my|
|| first duty is to adore the supreme hand which
i has protected my life, and sustained your pat
j riotic exertions in the re-establishment of the
reign of the laws. —From the dungeons of Boca
Chica. I declared tc the government who had im
prisoned in*- in them, that if they permitted me 1
to leave Colombia to reside in distant couirries, ;
1 would not return without their consent. I ad- i
Jed ; “ The oath of a m.n who has known how
to perform the oaths he has taken, at the risk of
his property, interest, tranquillity and life, is a •
sufficient guaranty.” Time has done new jus
tice to the sincerity of my words. 1 return to
the bosom of my country, since the National,
; Government has ordered, and you have freely
; i ope.tjd he me. I return not to revenge
j rny personal injuries, nor to show w ho have been
my persecutors. 1 come'to oiler it all the ser
vices I can render, with the clisinteres eduoss
and patriotism with which 1 have served it since
the2oth July, 1810. With what powers I have
I will co-operate with you for the happiness of
New Grenada, happiness wliich is to bo found
only in obedience to the Constitutional laws and.
authorities.—You have know n my public life in
times oft he country’s prosperity and adversity. j
You have'known whether lam capable of fill-;
filling my duties, and of performing my promises,
; under all circumstances.
; I have recently received a strong proof of
jj confidence from your legitimate representatives,
j! by inviting me to preside for a time over the dos
ji times of New Grenada. In my present situation,,
Hand in the condition oi’ the country, after hav-j
l ing presided over the Central Republic of Co-1
Ijlombiafor six years, my election to thePrcsi-l
jdency of this Sta-e confers on me the greatest,
honour, raid lays me under a great debt of grati- j
I tude. 1 hope your representatives will never!
repent of having preferred jno la occupy a post
already honoured by the virtues of one of the
j: patriarchs of the liberty of New Grenada—an
jj illustrious victim of his devotion to the country. I
j Countrymen, of all states and of all opinions,
I again declare to you, that whether magistrate
or private citizen, soldier or laborer, liberty un
der a republican government will continue to be;
my idol, the laws the only rule of my conduct,!
and the benefit of the majority the object of my
study and my sacrifices. On the altar of the ;
country I lay ul! my personal resentments ; I
forgive all my enemies, and will devote myself
without reserve to the re-establishment of internal ’
peace and general harmony under the reign of
the laws. Do the same, ail of you, as an offer-;
ring worthy of the civilization and the liberal;
principles which we have proclaimed. No more:
injuries, no more rancor, on account of paster-;
' rors or faults. Let us merge them ail in pro
-1 curing a .s‘rict fulfilment of the constitution; lot
: us invite the attention of the authorities to the
1 machinations which its enemies may form ; loti
'|j us observe the conduct of those who perversely j
I jj destroy our institutions; but let us not insult;
bj ourselves any longer, nor frustrate the salutary I
j results which ought to flow from a code of pro- 1
|| tecting laws, and a just, impartial government.;
•|! Let us become convinced, that persecution con
|| vinces no one of his errors, and prevents no po
|,iitical re-actions. On the contrary, moderation,
’lntolerance, and justice, correct the heart and dis
‘{{arm discontentment. Firmness and vigilance
V will chastise the incorrigible, without subjecting
| } i CD * V C?
lithe country’s honor or the cause of civilization
jj to any injury
ij I confidently believe, my respected country
men, that these ideas deserve your approbation.
Wc belong to the social world, we have entered
’j on the career of civilization, and we are observ
;j ed by ail enlightened nations. We cannot
: therefore, act like barbarians, isolated from corn
'll raunion with civilized society.—Our first duty
;I surely is to secure the existence of our country,
jj; and to preserve our political system, by employ
-1 jiingtho.se repressive measures towards its enc
grinies which are dictated bv our common secim
*lity, reason and the laws ; but aH that transcends
’ Sjthis rule is unjust, ignoble and dishonorable;
‘jjand you I am sure, cannot wish the dishonor in
■jiduced by injustice to be cast upon yourselves,
E luor to incur ihe evils attendant on continued per
l*|secutipn. What greater happiness can there!
’ be, what higher glory, than to belong to a conn-j
try in whicii are respected the laws, equity,
r isound judgment and public opinion ?

! Extract of a letter from Liverpool, dated June 30, lcu2, jj
to a Commercial gentleman in this city :
“ By the annexed price current, you will perceive that
we have had another good week in Cotton, with a stea
dy demand end full prices.—The account, of short sup
plies from the Gulf, which are of a positive character,
having since been negatived by as positive a contradic.
i tion—the late revivals of the statement of deficiency is
not generally credited—at all events its effect on onr
market has yet to be produced, an® the partial improve
ment in Orleans Cotton which has lately* taken place is
} chiefly attributable to the scarcity, inferiority, and high
price of Brazils.—Our future prospects seems a fair one,
, and we see no reason at present why our market should
not at least maintain its ground.”
LIVERPOOL, June 30.
There has been a steady demand during the whole of
the week for all descriptions of cotton, and the sales a.!
