This pover might have been ex-! p; ilieiit, if not necessary, when the people were; ' o' encumheri.d with the heavy debt ol the Re-! volution, hut it has become (now that that debt and all oth r debt has been paid off) that evil,, before unheard of under the sun ; —a power to iaiposc hurdi' iis upon one portion of the people to in* disti ihuted among another portion of the people! Certainly never, never on this earth was such a spectacle before exhibited.

These and other circumstances may have rendered ex pedient or necessary the grant of such a power to tho General Government, hut most of these causes have passed a wav, and such changes have been wrough* by time as have destroyed the equipoise of the States —the balance of power hetwi - u them—and made tt infinitely dangerous to the weaker members ot the Confederacy; sarii changes as have already subjected one por tion el them ii the oppression and injustice and t ic threatened violence of trie others, through insTumcntalitv of this very powered impos ing unlimited burthens. And let it he most especially noted, that at the very moment ot . sering under this power from past changes. fho.se changes which weaken us and strengthen oar opponents, are daily and almost hourly growing greater and greater. Shall we then shut our eves ,md close our ears to that universal truth of his orv, that where the weak and the .sTong arc imbed, the inevitable and rapid ten c * •i> ncy of power is to make tho weak weaker and the strong s longer * Can there he a mo '"•■nt then so lit, c m there be causes more sufli i'ut for the Southern States to hike counsel to a ther ?

These securities at least are necessary s well against tlio extent sis the abuse ot the rowers .-f the General Government.

' + Mr. Aden;?. ) Writers of the State Kiirhts end Free Trarm F *rty. and rcjiort to the sovereign authorities of these: States and their people, their best views and op nions on the common sutferiogs and danger and the best common remedj*. All thin is to ■ h'zvr. nii binding efficacy until confirmed irj thr States respectively. To :Ins it would seem no 1 . State can object unless it shell acknowledge that ait has no subject of complaint—at least, that it |!docs not suffer under nnjus*, uncontitudonal and : oppressive laws. In fine, we venture to suggest, | as the best and safest mean of quieting the pub-j !.lie mind and regulating the public excitcinen i ; and embodying the public will and wisdom, of ybe Southern Stales, on the great matters that now agitate the country, that there be a South r, ern Congress. Let us neither be misunderstood nor misre present-d. Our plan is not a Southern Confcde-j 1 1 racy. So to misrepresent the subject is an arti- H flee that has been employed already, by those ;! who wish to discountenance and discredit, all ef !iforts which aim at redress, or those who wish to enforce a particular nostrum. Wo arc, as we have before declared, hearty lovers of the T nion. We do not w ish to pull down nor to va cate th© venerable structure. It has here tofore cost us jiersonally some labor to preserve the ‘ edifice from the violence of some of the present i clamorous professors of loyalty to it. We cling I jto our title, though it he as present, we lament Ito say, only potential, in the establishment.— ' i 1 Ve wish to reform the building and to secure 1 our apartments in it—Our brethren, taking ud i| vantage of tlieir strength and union, have ap propriated the whole of it in its present form to ■ |j their separate use, and only suffer us to hang \ j about th‘* premises to perform their menial ser- 1 i vices. To this we are not disposed to submil. j ! We arc satisfied that unless we unite and insist j upon this reform, thev will continue thus to a- I I 1 buse us. Wo arc also satisfied that they dare ■ not do it one moment longer than we shall, by ! failing (o unite our efforts, encourage them to i - .... ' % . enforce their injustice and indulge their avarice i * t _ j t O I and their arl’cyn... Vfe believe, however, and); 1 we do not conceal what we think <•.; tiny nartli ■ of tins subject, that our energies, both moral and j physical, to sustain our rights and pretensions,!! are growing comparatively less and less every'; l day. r l’he physical power of that majority, whoji j hold practically the whole legal power of the Go j vernment, is increasing in a manifold ratio be yond ilia* of the Southern States, and tlieir legal (lower m the Government is increasing proper-! I lionahly. At the same time, the habits off nion, • | (like the folds of the Uoa Coiis'rictor entwining : his victim) are forming around us, with a grasp \ that will bind us so firmly that we shall soon ijhavc neither a hand to resist nor a so >t to run' . away with, and wo must he crushed. The strides' i of the Federal Government within the last ten, j years, have been so rapid as to accomplish more : Mian tho Patrick Henry’s, tho George Mason’s ; and the Rawlins Lowndes’, in all tlieir jealousy, 1 could have conceived possible in fifty years.] ! Their jealousy was most uuwis dy derided. Our poor siiivering nature, wo believe, often rests' ijwilh better founded confidence on what may be' ! almost called our instincts than on its boasted; ij wisdom. Wc appear to bo providentially led by! jjthcm, and when wc cast off their guidance and: M j trust to the impotence of onr vain, weak reason,! we often pay tho penalties of our arrogance.] That political jealousy so justly urged upon us 1 by these distinguished men, wc believe, after] 1 all, to be the best security for a wholesome po-; : litical condition.—The greatest enemy of this! j security is found frequently in our habits, which 'lihnvo the effect, of beguiling all on/ facul 'jl lies. Habit, in aiß* o°'- s , fir to supersede i! nature. It is said to be seconu n j,,il c. JUld iu ‘; deed it seems oficn to be the more jiowerful of tiKp ’j two qualities. Accordingly our just jealousy of; i jiower is x auisbing, with electric velocity, before hi tho idolatrous habits, with which wc worship the I] Union. Wo are already told, that it is a crime | to examine this with halt the freedom j! which we employ concerning our religious laitdi jam! worship. Cun this be wise? We implore lour readers to dwell for a moment on this sub -sj| icct, and enquire whether this intolerance may i j not be one of the artifices of a corrupt poli deal ; I pries*hood, who have for the sake of their tithes (would to God they were satisfied with a tithe ! of oursnbstauce !) interpolated the text book ot j our political rights and made it a code ot popU f lar tvrannv —a tyranny inlniitely more terrible i and ilebasiug thaii the tyranny ot a monarch; in ” its appetites more inappeaseablc and more gross, and in its duration more lasting. —It never dies, i —The gloemv expanse ot time which it covers 'j is never irradiated by a,Trajan or ah Antoninus, 'ij There is an eternal duration of its vicious quali ji tics midi’s rapacious reign. My ! Escape trom I! it while von have yet the power. —Xot from the I'nion but from its tyranny. Ihe Union in its i; true spirit wo wish to preserve. W e wish no ‘j Southern Confederacy unless it grow out of bur T necessities ; but we nevertheless rejoice that we '■■may, if necessary, use it as a shield or fly to it ’ as a refuge. We have no hidden design. We '|j toll yon tlio South is in danger—in danger from •’ j * jis own factions as well as from the common op r oressor. We invito yon then by union among ' 1 yourselves and among the suffering States o ' 'silence the first and resist the last. W e invite 1; von to enquire into the fact of your general 'j; danger, for yourselves and through yourselves, hi Through vour wisest, discreetest, most trust * j worthy men. if they shall report to xoutiuit 'i there is no danger, then proclaim the fact tiirough the country, with the audible xo cc of 1 a -j united and satiseed people. Lut it ’hex ie— -1 inert to you that you are tlio victims of rapacity hi and jioxvcr, under the forms of the I’nion. and "if that vour present sufferings arc but an index to M vour dfCtigcrs, then with tho same loud and um- Vi ted voice, insist that your rights be restored, Hand when they are restored, take adequate sc curi*x- not only l«»r tho jirc'crvation ot tliose ! rights, but also of those more precious rigius ' I that are alike in danger. irust the South to '' the South in this enquiry, tan there be aux danger, in such a course, to t‘;c I nion or its ! peace; or to the States or their rights? Can ’ there, wo entreat to be informed, be any danger ito the South I Will it not probably add to the 3 ;■ security of the Union and i:s peace, though it mav overturn a usurpation and establish the V! rights of the States ? Must it not bring healing -•! on its wings for t’ne great public wounds which J ‘!lie onon and arc becoming gangrenous : Away T ; then with the factious spirit of separate action-- s away with the alarm of danger to the I nion : u ? :it is a deceitful sound. It “'betrays kvj tii'a. jjsoa.” Thu Union is in no danger, though by the abuse of its poxvers. tii 0 beil.-r part o{ the q Union, the Sovereignty of the States, is in dan-, gcr of annihilation. ! The question then is no* the Tariff question! imerely, but one that embrace? every interest: and every hope, every thing that is dear or j valuable or ennobling to tb.e Southern States — i'he jiroperty, the peace, the honor, the liberty, the Independence of, at least, six Sovereign States of which South-Carolina is one of the smallcs* and xvill very soon be the least ! Yet j|it is insisted with a zeal, very hones’ wo believe. 1 1 but, we think most unwise:—with a z al wtiich we must call outrageous, which tolerates no shades of difference of opinion, that this, almost die smallest of the States, shall be sole judge 'of the time and mode of action which are to af fect all the Southern Stans on diis quesdon ; for, | let it be distinctly understood and well marked. : that an openly avowed and necessary predicate ■ of the scheme of separate action by* Sonth-Caro : lina, is, that the other Sou hern States will fol low f Its advocates advance, as their grea; and ; controling argument, that some one must go fir. t, but that this advanced position xvill nut be a for lorn hope, as the others will follow. —It* iins be * 7 . not their doctrine, let it be distinctly disavowed, i and the public disabused of the impressions art fully made upon them. ; If we can believe our eyes and our eal’s it has 1 been uniformly put forth as the leading doctrine 'of separate action.—lsu’, no matter what has been heretofore said unadvisedly, if such bo the jfact, let the advocates of separate action, avow | the scheme, that Somh-Carolina is o take this whole burthen upon her slender shoulder, if the ! othe*r States shall not see fit to ease them of their J portion kt? i*, and that tho concurrence of these j States is not looked to as n necessary* part of die ; plan. Let them avow this determination and j wc think they will receive but little popular sup ; port. Out if they rely upon and deem necessa ; ry the support of o her Southern Slates, why i leave that support to contingencies ? Vt by not ;consult xvitli them? 'Flic argument that in a ,| cause common to many- some one shall rush a- I head and supersede the free deliberation and vo j iilioi. oft ltd rest, is a monstrous viola - ion of good sense, good logic and good examples, and, wo !; may add, good fellowship. The rashness and ii presumption of the step, wc cannot find words to express, miles xx’e adopt those of the Poet— Man, vain man, drest in a little l>riof authority Flays such fantastic tricks, before biglx Hcax’on As m ike e’en angels weep ! Shall we, then, in the name of common sense and common prudence xve ask, shall xve put all ! these great interests at hazard, in obedience to counsels which our sister Sta'es have refused :o ! sanction ? Or if this language be objecod to, 1 then, (what wc conceive to he the same, in ef fect’) which they have Id her o declined to 1 sanction, and which xve shall ourselves adopt, if xve do adopt them, net under the sober convic i tion of our minds, but under the influence of en j gines of excitemen as the most unwonted on 1, 1 wo believe, the most dangerous kind ? 1 Entertaining the views we have jus thrown i out, wo shall most woefully lament a course of ■ separate action on the part of South-Caroima. We believe it would be en’irely without exam ple; at least, xvithouf any example whose <ui i thority, in the estimation of wise and discreet jjmen, would maker worthy of imitation. What nation, however strong, has usually entered up •ijou a grea* enterprize without drawing together ■ jail its strength and forming all the alliances ua :! tural and practicable? Hereto act alone would be ta disgust and offend, if ns>t to array agains us, the States who have common interests xvi h . us and who, we nuis: believe, if allowed to take their own time will make common cause with i us, \\ hat consolation shall wo ourstdx*os have, •hand xvb-u apology can xve make to the other ,j| States and to posterity, if xve shall put at hazard ■ii these great questions on our single strength and J! they shall bo doomed by onr weakness and 1 1: rashness lo fail ? VI by shall xve not rather do Jl what all good example and what sober wisdom| . | and customary prudence, all counse l us to do .i Wc know no reason that can ho assigned ex ■! cept that wc have so long omitted odo so and [j that it xx'ould be a painful conf-ssion ot pas’ error now to do it: w hich is to justify one built by* die : |i commission of a greater. —Wc trust, wc hope, *' xve implore, that a doubtful step may not be ta !! ken in a matter of such infini e moment. In this .ij earnest wish and with our strong conviction of f its propriety xve are constrained to believe tuat I South-Carolina xvill so proceed as to act in con ; cert xvitli her sis cv .S'atesot ibe South. What course} then, ougfit she to take, with , | reference to a imbed offor, becomes the next .jl question for consideration. W e say, let tae di Legislature in the gravest language, xvi hout ji threatening or boasting, deed ire its principles, j ; j Let it declare, tha the evils of xvhicii the Sou h ■jl complains are unconstitiuional and oppressive ■a and ifot lobe borne.

I*. *'“ i r it bo said tho State is committed by its past acts, jj we deny tlie fart. The State fs not committed to any particular course of conduct—much less is it committed bv anv thin? to a scheme of separate action.—There is not, we believe, a isyllable on record thus committing the State: I But if the Journals of the Legislature contained i volumes committing their authors, the true and; triumphant answer would be, the People neither i 'are nor can be committecd, by their agents, con- i , trary to their true interest.
