T. HAYNES. August 22d, 1832. Sparta, July, 1832. Ccntlenirn: I have received your letter of l the 21st inst. requesting mv attendance at ai public meeting to he held in the town of Lexing- ■ ton, on the 3d proximo, and also, to partake of a public dinner at the same time and pl ace. .My engagements being such as to prevent a' compliance with your kind invitation, 1 hog leave to submit the views and sentiments which : 1 entertain, and which I should express, were it j ui my power to be presen?. 'There Ins been no question before the Atmri-; can people for the last thirty years, so full of in- * forest and so big with consequences as the tariff; j and none which has merited so largo a portion 1 of southern reprobation, I believe the tariff to be unconsfitutionfi, and 11 know it to be unjust and oppressive, and this opinion I have confirmed under the solemn obli gation of an oath. I maintain the sovereignty of the States, to the utmost tittle of Tnei r constitutional rights—l love and cherish the Union, believing that upon its duration, depends the liberty and happiness! of the people. I confidently rely upon the virtue and intelli gence of the people—upon iheir capacity not only to govern, bn: to govern well, and that al though they may be sometimes led astray by the influence of designing men, “they will never re main long in the wrong upon any great political question.” lam opposed to the doctrine of nullification as : promulgated by the politicians of South Caro lina. I support Gen. Jackson and Martin Van Du r< n. for President and Vice President. But while I denounced the tariff as unconsti tutional and unjust, and while I maintain the sov eivign power of the S.ntes within their constitu tional boundaries, to its utmost extent, 1 beg leave to enter my solemn protest against the mea sures proposed by South Carolina—because I am fully persuaded, if once set in motion, they, cannot stop short of dissolution. That one state! can possess the power of repealing anactotl twenty-three co-ordinate Stales, by the peaceful; operation of her authority, and that the remain-! lug twenty-three are equally bound to submit, is! a solecism in government. If one state does) possess the power contended for, it must be con-j stitutional power, and whatever is constitutional j must bo binding upon the whole. Admitting the right claimed by South Caro-! lina to nullify an act of Congress upon her own judgment of its unconstitutionali.y, does not the same power belong equally to the other states ? Suppose twelve states declare a law unconstitu t.oaal, and the other twelve should sustain its! constitutionality, each possessing precisely the same right to decide for itself: which would be right and which wrong? It is said a state may nullify an act of Congress and s*ill remain a member of the union. There may be cases in which it might bo true, but the nullification of the tariff by any state inevitably places that state out of the Union. Can a state be consider-! ed in the Union when she withdraws her support j Tom the government? can she be in the Union, ■ when she refuses to contribute one cent to the 1 public Treasury? I think not; then if South' Carolina nullifies the tariff, she thereby opens! her ports and declares them free: she at once! I ceases to contribute a farthing of revenue, be-| I 'a USe no duties will then be collected In her ports,! I and she is expressly prohibited by the consiilu-j I tion from imposing any duties on imports with-j I out the consent of Congress. I She might, however, under these circura- I stances, contend for her membership, upon the I same principle that she nullified, to wit : herj I right to judge—but would not the remaining; I states assert the contrary upon the same princi- I pie? most certainly; lor whatever powers aau I rights the nullifying state might claim for her-; K self, she must in accordance w ith her ow n prin-j I tuples, concede to ail the rest. — inns under the: R exercise of tlie right claimed by South Caroline., I un act of nullification by one state not being cb-; ■ liifatory upon her co-sovereignties, must lean to. I collision, to civil war, and ultimately end in His-, I union. It is therefore in my opinion, not oiu\ , ■ visionary in its conception, but wholly imprac-, R ticahle in its operation. I But I am not to bo understood as denying to aj R .state the right ofseccssioa or revolution. — fhcsej R arc natural unalienable rights, which 1 would be ■ as free to exercise, when oppression becomes R no longer sufferable, as any other citizen. But ■ fias that period arrived ? Has indead Ofcr boast ed republic proved i self a chimera in one little j half century ? Heaven forbid i —the rich s, the a happiness and welfare of mankind, forbid it. For one, I will not despair of the republic. I will place my reliance upon the great funda-*! mental principles ol our gov mment —1 will rest ; my hopes where Mr. Jefferson rested his, upon , * die virtue and intelligence of the people. If w ' trust the democratic principle, it well save us — * . _ . 1 I 7 rjn we cast it off, and commit ourselves to the A phan um of nullification, all is lost —and the day (I which announces the separation of these states, ; d will toll the death kncli of liberty. r ;j Wise and considerate sta esnien will consider j ,(jthe effects of :!ieir measures, will look well to j i the consequences of their actions. They will , . ; not always e.v raise a right because they pos- ! ~,se.ss it, but will examine and weigh the proba >|i bilities. li* forbearance in the exercise ofa i || right will produce more ultimate good, than its immediate enforcement, common sense and com union prucencc would say forbear. 1 cannot believe the argument is yet exhaust-■ je —indeed I do not think the question has been }| fully discussed. Our southern people instead of j i| taking it up dispassionately, as a question be- i j : tween the manufacturers and consumers are dis- ! 1 cussing it mainly upon sectional grounds— I; thereby exci ing the angry feelings of bo h par ties, and making it in fact, a contest more of passion than of reason. j Then let ns reason together—let us speak to jour northern brethren the words of truth and so- ■ ; born ess—let us admonish them “ bv our com ijmon kindred” and common interest to do us jus tice. Let us enlighten the people of Now Eng land hv sending our arguments among them-*- ! shew the consumers every where, the enormous taxes* imposed upon every article of consumption, for the benefit of a privileged few. Instead of sending inflammatory tracts from South-Carolina to Georgia, let South Carolina, Georgia, and the whole ol the south, send sober, temperate argu mentative tracts to the tariff states. We shall jthen have made a fair trial of the democratic i principle, and if it shall fail, it mat ers lit’!-,; what j follows: for if the people are not sufficiently wise ’lj and virtuous to sus‘am republican government | jjupon its broadest principles of equality and jus- i it t:cO, the doctrine of nullification will avail ns ■'[nothing; and I take leave hero to affirm, that jj there is no power but the moral power of thepeo ?j pie, which can save the constit r ion. They are : the great conservative power of the republic, and I there is none beside them. To their sober wisdom, I fearlessly commit the 1 destinies of my country, with undoubiing confi * dence m their wisdom and justice. Wc should •| be slow to the adoption of measures which may j endanger our union, for although the evils j which we suffer, arc great, s’ill groa'er have j j been overcome by the people; and if (his union ! i shall once he severed, it will be a great, and 1 | fear, a hopeless undertaking to unite it again. * Remember, felfow-cilizons, that “ united wo i stand, divided we fall.” We cannot stand divi- ! ded, I repeat; and bad as the Union may he in its | present unequal operation, the time has not ar- | i rived when we should sit coolly down and cal- j i culate its value. We will suppose for a moment. I that seven nr eight states should withdraw from ; our Union and declare free trade with all the 1 world ; would not the other sixteen or seventeen states, retaining the present form of the federal j government, still retain also the navy, the army, . and indeed every thing properly belonging to the present government ? could wc expect from them i i more kindness and more justice in our new re- 1 : lations, than they have shewn us while members of the same family ? It requires a very slight knowledge of human nature to answer :!iis cues- O 1 tibn. Would they consent that foreign goods should be imported duty free into our little republic, whereby all their manufactures would be exclu ded and their best customers cut off? No, The same spirit of injustice of which wo now com plain would s"ill pursue us. But it may be said, that England would not permit it —“Aye, there’s [! the rub.” We should be the bone of contention ! I between Old and New England—we would be jj the subject and theatre of their strifes ; and dcs- i ijtitute ofa navy, without a single attribute of it government to make ourselves respected, wc [should exist under their alternate protection and j plunderings. ! Let us then cling to the Union, in firm reli ance on the final success of our principles, for | “ truth is mighty and will prevail.” I frankly 1 confess, there was a time, when catching the in fection of the breeze, I was almost pursuadedto ho a nullificr, hut upon a little reflection, the a i lanning attitude of South-Garolina, and the ut ter impracticability of the doctrine, have produ i cod upon my mind a settled conviction of its mis chievous tendency. The enactment of the sedition law, in all its ■ bearings upon the rights of the citizens, and the I principles of the constitution, was far more ont ' rageous than the tariff, and aimed a more direct land deadly blow at the sovereignty of the peo ple—yet the wisdom of those times did not put j !! the union at hazard, in attempts at state nulli jfiuation. The groat democratic leaders of that; I'dav, relied upon the power of their principles, j I Insi- uu of wasting their energies in threateniugs; ’ and "denunciations acainst the federal govern-j meat, they went out into the great harvest field | ■ preaching, and teaching the people. I ney cried I aloud and spared not —they envoked the wisdom j j and patriotism of the country to rescue tflem-1 I selves from the thraldom of their oppressors, and II they did not labor in vain. The civil revolution '[of i? 00 verified all their hopes and predictions *1 in the triumph of democracy. And are wc less ■ wise and patriotic than our fathers ? arc we , :| afraid to submit our own rights and interests to '; the judgment of our peers ! I trust not. This" is a momentous question, the issue ofj[ [which lies beyond the ken of mortal prophecy.|j : The doctrine of nullification presents dangers on!, , all hands, and though it might for the moment j| relieve us from a single oppressive act of the gov- . eminent, the evils which I have glanced at, would j •; I fear form but a small item in the melancholy i catalogue of its disastrous results. Tiie importance of re-electing Gen. Jackson, j demands our united and vigorous exertions—be- I tween him and Mr. Clay there lies no half-way j ground, and it seems to me, that a Southron who ■ :|opposes Gen. Jackson, or even stands neutral [ between him and Mr. Clay, must be the victim l of some fatal delusion. South-Carolina stands in this predicament; and while denouncing the tariff with its authors and abettors, she is in ef fect advancing the interest efits greatest Cham- | pion, by withdrawing her support from Gen. r Jackson. Will Georgia pursue Ihc same poli jicy 1 I trust she will not for a moment hesitate in her choice, but will exert herself to the ut most, fur the success of the man “ who lias fill ed the measure of his country’s glory.” The , fearless s‘and which he has taken upon thej Bank question—the pure doctrines embodied in* his message upon that subject, should confirm! our confidence in his patriotic devotion to the! principles of the constitution. But hear him— ; ,f Nor is our government to be maintained, or ■our union preserved, by invasions of the rights j and powers of the several spates. In thus at ■ mmpting to make our government strong, we | make it weak. Its true strength consists in leaving individuals and states, as much as possi-: blc, to themselves ; in making itself felt, not in i*s| i power, but in its beneficence, not in its control,! but in its protection, not in binding the state j more closely to the centre, but in leaving each to move unobstructed in its proper orbit.” “Experience should teach us wisdom. Most of the difficulties our government now encounters, ' O land most of the dangers which impend over our | union, have sprung from an abandonment of the i legitimate objects of government by our national legislators. Many of our rich men have not been content with equal protection, but have besought us lo make them richer by actofCon gress. By afempling to gratify their desires, we have in rhe results of our legislation arrayed; [section against section, interest against interest, man against man, in a fearful commotion, which threatens to shake the foundations of our union. It is time »o pause in our career, to review oun principles, and, if possible, revive that devoted’ patriotism and spirit of compromise which dis tinguished the sages of the revolution, and the fathers of our union.” And in conclusion, he says: “ In the difficulties which surround us, and the dangers which threaten our institutions, there is cause for neither dismay nor alarm. For relief and deliverance let us firmly rely on that kind providence which, I am sure, watches with peculiar care, over the destinies of our re public, and on the intelligence of our country, [men. Through Hbt abundant goodness and I iheir patriotic devo'ion, our liberty and union will be preserved.” These are the sentiments of Gen. Jackson— sentiments worthy the sublimcst contemplation ofl the Christian and patriot. With him at our head the Federal Union will j not only he preserved, but the government ho! brought back to the good old republican track. With Henry Clay at our head, what evils may we not predict? The bast lingering hopes oft he south would expire under the withering influence of his administration, and a dissolution of the, [ Union would follow. Then I beseech you, “look! ! on this picture, and on this,” pause and consider, I j wheflier it will not be wiser and safer to forbear I (at least, nnfil the presidential election is over ? a! | few short months will decide that confcs*, and[ | while we can loose nothing, we may gain every! | thing by our prudence and forbearance. I repeat! ! it, we must have Jackson and union, orClayarub disunion. | But lest my vote upon the writ of error from, I the Supremo Court in the case of Tassels, should! |be brought up in judgment against the opinions' j heroin expressed, 1 take occasion hereto say,! that, that case, and the South Carolina question j ofnullilioation, are essentially different. In that case, contest was strictly between a j single branch of the federal government upon a I question purely local in its nature, and one in j which no other state but Georgia had any direct interest. Georgia had extended her own jurisdiction over her own soil, and ffic people residing upon that soil. In tho enforcement of her authority, the federal judiciary interposed to arrest the ope ration of her criminal laws. What did Georgia do ? She litre w herself upon her sovereign rights, disregarded the mandate of the court, and execu- j ted her laws. She did not call upon die other; states to come to her relief, it being a matter, purely between herself and the court, the result, of which, either the one way or the other, was by ( !no means calculated to dis urb the harmony of j the Union. She did not threaten violence, seces sion or nullification, but proceeded calmly but, firmly to the execution of her laws, determined ? ; if violence must ensue, tha she would not be the aggressor. She siood in the attitude of self de fence against the usurpation of the federal judicb ary, upon a question, as I before remarked, alto gethcr local in its character. Docs the tariff present such a case? Is it a question exclusively between South Carolina and the federal government, Or is it one in which all! the states are directly interested ? The question! is easily answered. The operation of the tariff! | act is co-extensive with the Union, however uno-' qual its effects may be upon different sections,! and it is a subject in which all the states have a, direct or tangible interest, much !o the bcn>-fi‘ of some, and greatly to the injury ot others. One i saate cannot therefore act upon it wi hout coming 1 ; in direct hostility with the interests and opinions' | of some others; and each having an equal right [ so judge of its constitutionality, and very different \ opinions beimr known toexis indifferent states,* the nullification of the act by one, or a portion of the states, would inevitably lead to collision, and end in calamitous consequences. Thus I th’uk, I have shewn a striking difference between the wo cases. —That he first being local 1 in its nature and having no connexion with the in tercsts of other states, could not be expected to I produce any dangerous excitement beyond her! own limits, while the other being one of general i i one ration, affecting every state and section of the ■ . Union, either for good or for evil, could no: be j ' resisted by a portion of the states by the mode un- ! der consideration, without producing a contest,ll ! the effects of which 1 shudder to think of. 1 I may be asked, how long 1 would en lure tlie j| tariff before I would resist its operation, or wheth- ; |er I would consent to submit to it as a perman- , 1 ent measure. To this I reply, that I cannot num- ; ;bcr the years, months or days, but I would en-ji [ Jure it just as long as my faith should remain un !shaken in the great deraocra ic principle, which!; j lies at the foundation of this government. But , ; [how soon I shall yield up that first, last, best jj ! hope of my country, time alone can tell. —1 trust i lin God, never, never, never; for whenever that ; ■great anchor of our hopes shall fail, then may j our country’s epitaph be written. I believe it will not fail, for although tho ac- , tion of the government has gone wrong for a ! time by the folly or wickedness of its agents, the elements arc yet pure and unpolluted—that; . f the honesty and patriotism of the people will be . found ail sufficient to “ redeem, regenerate,” and perpetuate the true principles of the repub lic. ; I would therefore most earnestly recommend \ ■ !to my fellow-citizens, firmness in their opposi-i tion to the doctrine of protection, but temper * ancc and moderation in their measures. If South-Carolina is resolved to rush blind ! fold to the conflict, let her reap the mischief or the glory alone—but let us admonish her, let us t j implore her to subdue her passion, to stay hen | hand until one more appeal is made to the jus-[ J tice of her countrymen. Tell her it is a fe/<,r- i * ful thing to destroy our union, and that those | || who shall be instrumental in its destruction, will !| have an awful account to render to posterity. 11Tell her it is not her patriotism wc question, but: H her policy—not the intent cf her acts, but the! ■; results. In conclusion, gentlemen, I beg you to par-1 ! don the length to which 1 have drawn out liies . I ■(remarks, but the magnitude of the subject, thej ’ fearful agitation of a sister state, and the awful! calamities which must follow a severance of the! ■ Union, must plead my excuse. Confiding in the j patriotism of my fellow-citizens of Ogle horpe,| 11 feel assured that whatever measures hey may! : adont, whether in accordance with my views.! 1 J J ( or not, they will be governed by principles ol i unalloyed attachment to their country, Wi'.h sentiments of respect, Y'our obd’t Serv’t. THOMAS HAYNES. APPENDIX. 1 There is one assertion passing current with i those who profess the doctrine ot" nullification, to I ! which I did not refer in rny letter. It is that; the protective system has now become penna-j neat, and that in as much as the last Congress! refused to abandon the principle, it will never be icpcaled. This appears to mo to ho asserting a new article in the republican creed. 1 have been led to understand from the op inions of the wisest and purest pat no 9, that it is, at all times tho right of the people to “ alter or abolish” their poll deal ins it miens. Are the ac.s of congress like the laws of the Modes and Persians ? Are the rights and liberties of the 1 American people to be forever barred and fore i closed by act of congress ? Are our represen ta- I fives to assemble hereafter gagged and fettered I by the acts of our predecessors ? No. 1 learn from the federal cons iUnion and the action of the government, that every congress which has ever assembled, or shall hcreaf-j ! ter assemble under our present form of gov-! r p j ornmen*, have, and will possess the right,! j fully and unqualifiedly o repeal or modify the! I acts of their predecessors. i There is no power in tho Coostitudon—there] j is no power in Congress to make its own acts j perpeaial. The perpetuity of every act dc-| j pends alone upon public opa.ion—the constitu-' •| tion itself could not exist a single day against ■ | O . *_o ;! the voice of the people. | To make *m act perpetual, “it must be pla ;! ced beyond the reach of contingencies.” it The tariffis not and cannot be so placed unfil* I the principles of our government are destroyed :j ! it is open to discussion and to the power of the * ballot box. it is said the tariffis to be permanent, because Mr. Clay declares it shall be so; but I have yet I to learn, that the ipse dixit of any man is to con : trol the legislation of Congress. Our government yet wears the forms of a icpuhlic —the sceptre is yet in the hands of the people. I look not to Henry Clay for a repeal of tho tariff- —I nei’ber court his aid or fonv his power. The time is fast approaching, if We are true to ourselves, when the voice of Henry Clay will no longer be heard in the Councils of* this nation. The thunders cf the ballot box] ■| will silence the croaking of his ambition in the* || triumph of better men, and better principles. THOMAS HAYNES.

August 31 22 rifOPosALs Fair publishing a weekly Paper in the city of Augusta, ;i Cco. to be called the NORTH-iUmiIiZOAN GAfcBTl'S. * HE subscriber proposes to publish a weekly paper S- in Augusta, to be called The North-American : Gazette ; and as it will be his endeavor to make it use- ; ! ful to the public, he will venture to hope for such a share of patronage as to insure to himself a reasonable a remuneration for his labors. While so many papers are published in Augusta, and some of them so ably | edited, it might be thought perhaps that an additional paper was scarcely necessary. But it is believed, that even with all the papers now published here, and even with the daily papers which, from notices given, arc . contemplated, that still a weekly paper may be so con. ducted, as to become a very acceptable periodical, both to those who take, and to many who do not take the other publications. How far it may be in the power of the publisher of The North-American Gazette to make 1 it generally acceptable, can only be known alter the experiment has been made.—lie can however, in ad- i vancte of the experiment, venture to engage that no ef forts of his shall be wanting to render his paper gene- J rally useful. It will contain an account of the general |3 occurrences of the day—will present to its readers all |i j such foreign and domestic intelligence as maybe eup. || posed to be of an interesting or important character— such moral and religious information as may be appro- I prime to such a publication, and such miscellaneous or political communications, as shall, in the Editor’s judg. ment, be calculated to benefit his fellow-mcti—and it will be his endeavor to have the pages of the Gazette diversified with such occasional selections, or original communications, as may be deemed worthy the atten tion of such female readers, as may be willing to pat ronize the undertaking. As to the political complexion of the paper, it will be , necessary to say but little, as it is not to be exclusively a political publication—but as far as political subjects find place in it, that course only will be pursued, w'hich in the honest judgment of the publisher will be best cal- ; oulated to promote the substantial good of his fellow, men. In a country like ours, the people all have the same rights and the same interests : to advance these interests and to sustain these rights, will be the endea vor of the publisher of The North-American Gazette, according to the best of his ability—and with them, that happy Union of the United States, on which their pre servation must in his view inevitably depend. To the contests of mere party scribblers, he can promise no countenance. To do good, will be the Editor’s endea vor—if in tliis he fails, it shall in no case be a voluntary failure. ; CONDITIONS. | The North-American Gazette will be issued the | first week in October. The materials to be entirely • new; the paper of good quality and equal in size to any . paper now published in the State. The publisher pledges to ids patrons, that the me chanical department shall not be surpassed by any news paper in the Southern States. Price ol subscription Three Dollars per annum, or Four Dollars if not paid the year. ET Persons holding subscription lists, will please make a return of subscribers bv the first of O tober next.
