TO tub: public. 1 have seen in “ The Journal of the Times,” a letter from the lion. William 11. Crawford, ad dressed to the Hon. Dennis L. Ryan, a member of the present House of Representatives of Geor gia. In whatever motives the correspondence between these gentlemen may have originated, it has for its object, the denunciation of Gov. Lumpkin and myself, for certain alleged incon sistencies, in relation to the great questions which now engage the attention ol the people «l Georgia. Upon this association of names, I will simply remark, that if the resolutions adopted by the Convention of the People, recently as sembled at Milledgcvillc, have met with the ap probation ol'Gov. Lumpkin, 1 have not enough of the feelings of a partisan, to be dissatisfied with them On that account —on the contrary, it affords me gratification to believe, that they have been so approved, by many patriotic and intelli gent members of the party, with which he is as sociated. My present business, however, is wuh Mr. Crawford’s letter, or so much of it, as re lates to myself. He professes to have no un friendly feelings towards me, and states that the relations bet ween us have always been amicable. Vet, he comes, uncalled, before the public he has voluntarily assumed the office'of an accuser, and ins'ead of discussing the merits of the mea sures adopted by the Convention, for which he chooses to hold me responsible, he exhausts him self in a vain and futile attempt to fasten upon me the imputation of inconsistency. How fur this may consist with Mr. Crawford’s notions of amitv, or of amicable relations, 1 shall not stop to enquire. On an occasion like this, lam equal ly indisposed to court any man’s friendship, & to deprecate anv man’s enmity. In uniting with my fellow-citizens at Athens, and elsewhere, I have exercised the right of a private citizen. In participating in the- deliberations ol the Con vention, I have discharged my duty as one of the Delegates of the people of Monroe. For this, the press has teemed with misrepresentations of my conduct. Anonymous scribblers have given free scope to their malignity, and men who, un til now, have been implacable in their resent ments, have buried their ancient feuds to unite in the denunciation of an individual, who isusin ditlerent to their spleen, as they are heartless in their professionsofcCnfidencein each other. Mr. Crawford has now thrown his weight into the scale of my accusers. I will not say that Ido not regret this. Mr. Crawford’s public charac ter has been a source of just pride to the people of Georgia, and I have participated in this feel ing. 1 cannot, however, be unmindful ol the du ty of self-defence, by submitting in silence to these reiterated misrepresentations of my con duct; but neither will I forget the respect which I owe to myself, and to the public, by an exhibi tion of the arrogance and the acrimony, which have characterised these accusations. 1 1r. Crawford’s general charge is inconsisten cy.—His specifications are two-told. ' Ist. He asserts, that the sih Resolution adop. ted by the Convention, recognizes the doctrine of Nullification —and that notwithstanaingthis, I did at Athens and elsewhere, declare my hostili ty to this doctrine. 2d. He refers to the Resolution oi that body, which recommends a Southern Convention, and then adverts to an address delivered by me to the citizens of Burke, in which I expressed thcopin ion, that a Southern Convention was unconstitu tional, unless it was intended to be consultative & recommendatory only, in which casa it would be harmless from its imbecility. I design to state these charges truly, and in all their force—extenuating nothing—setting down naught in malice—and refraining from the indulgence of the feeling, which such an attempt to misrepresent my conduct, is calculated to a waken. The latter task is rendered less difficult, from the conviction, that the effort is harmless, and that its impotence may be demonstrated. 1 begin bv an admission. —1 have, on all pro per occasions, declared my inability to acquiesce in ;he doctrine of Nullification. 1 did so before the meeting of ‘he I’on veil ion. 1 made the same declara'ion in the discussion ot the resolu tions in Committee. I have repeated it since, and I reiterate it now. If I could have gone one step further, and have denounced those irho did maintain the doctrine, 1 should probably have been spared the trouble of penning these re marks. This, however, I have uniformly refus ed. On the contrary, I have often and publicU declared, (and the declaration, 1 doubt not, has greatly aggravated my offence.) that there were among the advocates of this doctrine, men as pure, as patriotic, and as intelligent, as those w,io differed from them. 1 have refused to join in the denunciation of the people of South-Carol ina —I have considered that we had the same griev ances to complain of, and that the community of our interests, made it the duty of each to con ciliate, rather than to offend. I could not con vince myself of the propriety of the remtsdy, to they were about to have recourse ; but I ’elt that they and we were struggling against a common oppression, and I did not believe it to be the dictatcof patriotism, to unite myself with those, who were alike hostile to them and to us. J sought rather by a firm, yet temperate course of action in Georgia, to present to South-Carolina a position, on which she could have retired with out dishonor, and to all the Southern States a rallying point, from which, without jeopardizing the Union, they might unitedly and efficiently , have repelled the usurpations of which we com r plain. It is my firm conviction, that this desir - able result has been prevented, only by division among ourselves-. What other evils may follow , in the train of those dissensions, which are still r so zealously fomented, time will discover; bCt > thus far, the want of union at home, has been fatal to the best hopes of patriotism. I have admitted, that in the very act of discuss r ing and supporting the resolution specified by Mr. Crawford, I declared my dissent from the doctrine of Nullification. Does that Resolution then proclaim this doctrine ?—Such is Mr. Craw ford’s assertion—and he tells i-s, that if this is not so, he is “ no judge of the English language.” 1 have certainly no desire to press this alternative hut even at the hazard of such a consequence, (since he wills it,) { affirm, that the resolution re ferred to, does not assert the doctrine of Nullifi cation. Let us see what it is, which this resolu tion does affirm : It asserts three things— -Ist. '1 hat in a confederate 1 Government, the , powers of which are expressly limited by the Constitution, it is essential that there should exist some-where, a power authoritatively to interpret that instrument, to decide in the last resort, on tile use or abuse of the authority which it confers on the common agent of the confederating States. 2nd. That tills power cannot belong to the a gent. 3rd. That in the absence of a common ar biter,expressly designated by the Cons;itution, . each S'ate, as such, for itself, and virtue of ils sovereignty, is necessarily remitted to the ex ercise of that, right. Which of these propositions dose Mr. Craw ford deny? If the first, then the limitations of the Constitution are useless—since there exists no where a power to interpret an! enforce them. If the second—‘he same consequence will 1 follow—for the agent who is entrusted with the execution of these powers, will be the sole judge of his own conduct. The third affirms, that each State, fir itself an 1 in virtue of its sovereignty, has the right to interpret the Constitution—to decide in the last resort, on the use or abuse of the powers conferred on the common a^ent. —Does Mr. Crawford deny this? If so, the same conse quence will still follow. Tlie limitations of the const!.ution will be a dead letter. But if this proposition be denied, we must blot from our records every legistr.dve opinion on this sub ject. We mui withdraw from the archives of , the Senate of the United States, the solemn pro. test which we have deposited there. What is 1 the language ofthe Legislature in 1827 ? “They affirm that those who create a delegated Go vernment, have lawfully the power to restrain it within proper bounds.” They affirm “ that the proper constituents of the General Govern ment, are the States—and the States are to that Government, what the people are to the States.” In 1828, they use this language—“ The States respectively have, therefore, in the opin ion of your committee, the unquestionable right, in case of any infraction of the general com pact, or want of good faith in the performance of its obligations, to complain, remonstrate, A: even to refuse obedience to any measure of the General Government, manifestly against, and in violation of the Constitution, and in short, to deck redress of I heir wrongs * hy all the means right fully exercised by a sovereign and indepen sent Government .” What again was the lan guage of the protest of 1828 ? The Legisla ture of Georgia protested against the Tariff act cf that year, as unconstitutional— demanded its repeal—and required that their protest should be deposited among the archives of the Senate, to serve as a perpetual testimony, if the conduct of the Federal Government, “ should render necessary, measures of a decisive character, for the protection of the people of the State, and the vindication of the Constitution of the United States.” Is this Nullification ? No. But it is tiie assertion in the broadest terms, of the right of one of the sovereign States of this Union, to decide for itself; and in the last re sort, on the compact into which it has entered with the co-States. We do not now require a definition of Nullification, to rove that these propositions arc not co-exlen-:ve with the doc trine which it asserts. The events which are in progress on the other side of Savannah river, will inform us, that South-Carolina docs not merely claim the right to decide for herself, that a specific power has not been conferred by the Federal Constitution ; for thus far, there is no diversity between the Legislatures of Soulh-Ca rolina and Georgia ; ami this is the language of the resolution which Mr. Crawford quotes. But South-Carolina, moreover, claims to enforce this decision upon her co-States, and remaining in the Union, in the enjoyment of all her privi letjes, to refuse obedience to a law enacted in the alleged exercise of that power, un il a new and explicit urant of such power shall bo made by the cons iturional majority of the States in ■ General Convention assembled. Such a doc trine his never (so far as 1 am informed) been ass Tted by the Legislature of Georgia, and cer-- Vnlv cannot be found in the resolution refer red to. 1 believe I may now safely leave this ■ part of the subject. The fifth resolution asserts 1 the rinht of a State to decide upon infractions of ■ the Constitution, and this the Legislature of Georgia have repeatedly affirmed, but it no where asserts the right of a State to nullify a law, and practically to enforce this decision up. on her co-States, by remaining in the I nion. ■ and refusing obedience to such law, until the re i quisite number of States shall concur in a new , an d substantive grant of the power to enact such a j avv —and this is Nullification. Mr. Crawford’s seccnd charge is, that I have advocated a Southern Conven ion, while acting * as a member of tlie State Convention, and that in an address to the People of Burke, I express ed.the opinion, that a Southern Convention was i unconsti utional, unless it was consultative and recommendatory only, in which case, it might be harmless from its imbecility. Now, what I ■ desire to have understood in foe first plac*> is. , that the Southern Convention recommended by i the Convention at Miliedgevifle, is merely “ con i' sultative and recommendatory.” The resolu tions propose that the measures recommended by the Southern Convention should be first sub- I mitted to the State Convention, and if adopted hy them, should be finally referred to the peo pie of the State of Georgia, for their approval or rejection. The proposed Southern Conven tion was, therefore, to be strictly a consultative body, and was consequently not obnoxious to the charge of being unconstitutional, upon the principles laid down in the address to the people of Burke. The first part of this charge of in consistency, is then disposed of. The second admits of an answer, which is equally plain. Mr. Crawford will agree, that other opinions, as well as those which are judicial, must be un derstood with reference to the subject matter under discussion. The question, at the time of the meeting in Burke, was between a State rind a Southern Convention. 1 believed, that in case of an infraction ofthe Constitution, the 'people of a State could only net legitimately in a Conven tion of the Slate, since that was the power, by which the Constitution Was ratified : until that power was called into existence, I thought it was merely useless to send Delegates to a Southern Convention, since all legitimate action must be had in a Convention ofthe State. If a South orn Convention had been called before the State Convention was organized, I should therefore have considered it useless, because of its imbe cility'—but this did not prevent me from believ ing it to bo useful ns a means of concentrating the views of the Anti Tariff States, and as au xiliary to a State Convention already organiz ed, and competent to act upon its recommenda tions, if they were-approved by the latter, and by the people. The error -of this accusa tion arises from a want of attention to time and circumstances. When the question was, wheth er we should have a State or Southern Conven tion, 1 believed that the latter alone, if organiz ed for action, would be unconstitutional, and if for consultation merely, would, unaided by a State Convention, be imbecile and useless. I thought it was first proper to organize the lat ter ; and that it was the province of the people thus assembled in their own State Convention, to determine whether they would confer with their sister States, in a Southern Convention ; but when the State Convention was organized an 1 competent to act, in order that its action might be deliberate and prudent, it seemed to me proper, to take counsel with our sister States, having a common interest with us in this mat ter; and that, I thought, coull be most effi ciently done, through the medium of a Southern Convention. I have, I trust, relieved myself from the charges of inconsistency, alleged agains' me by Mr. Crawford. I hope I have done so, with the respect which is due to the public, to whom, thus called upon, it has become my duty to ad dress myself. The fact of Mr. Crawford’s con sistency or mi. e, is indeed utterly unimportant, in the decision of the very grave and interest ing questions which now agitate the public mind. But no man is bound to submit to un merited accusation. In repelling that which has been preferred against me, I have studiously confined mvself within the limits of self-defence JOHN MACPIIERSON BERRIEN.
