REASONS WHY 1 CANNOT VOTE FOR
HENRY CLAY.
1. Mr. Clay and his party wish to mo
dify the Veto Power so as effectually to
destroy it, which would break down the
only constitutional check which the Presi
dent has on hasty or corrupt legislation in
Congress.
2. Mr. Clay and his party arc trying
to add to the strength of the General Gov
ernment, and to weaken the powers of the
State Governments: —lnstance the acts of
the Extra Session, in which they claimed
the right to force a branch of a U. S. Bank
on the States, whether they would or not;
the distribution of the proceeds of the Pub
lic Lands among the States; the assump
tion ofState Debts by the General Govern
ment, which would make the States that
are out of debt pay, by taxation, the debts
of those States which owe millions!! —
Also, the whig theory of internal improve
ments by the General Government, which
could not be made to benefit every section
of country equally; but w ould enable the
officers of the General Government to
filch money, by taxation, from their poli
tical enemies, and apply it to internal im
provements forthe benefit of their friends.
3. Mr. Clay’s declarations in his letter
to Mr, Meriwether, “that he would have
preferred that the Compromise Act, in all
its parts, could have been adhered, to;”
his promise in Columbus, Georgia, in 1814,
to “ adhere to the provisions of the Com
promise Act;” his challenge in Charles
ton, S. C., to the most vigilant il to show
wherein he had viofa’cd the principles of
the Compromise Act in the slightest de
gree;” liis assertion in his letter to Bron
son, “that there is now no necessity fsr
protection.” And then his letters to Low
ell and Pittsburg, in which he says, “the
TARIFF ACT OF 1842 HAS OPERATED MOST
BENEFICIALLY, AND HE IS UTTERLY OP
POSED to its repeal,” might leave us in
.some doubt as to what bis real principles
on the subject of a tariff'are. But as the
lust quotation is the latest we have from
him, and as he is allied to the old federal
party, most of the leaders of whom are
manufacturers, and who we know are fa
vorable to a high protective tariff, we are
bound to believe he came nearest uttering
his real sentiments in his last letter. We
are, therefore, authorized to affirm, that
Mr. Clay is decidedly in favor of the tariff
•of 1842, until we hear from him again,
and the above quotations wi 1 show how
much confidence is to be placed in his
next communication, when we get it.—
Now, it w as the opinion of the honest Mr.
Habersham, though he was elected by the
whig party, that the tariff of ’42 was more
objectionable than the act of ’2B. And
man)' of the ablest men of our country
have expressed the same opinion. And
as I was an anti-tariff State Rights man
in 1828, it is very clear that 1 cannot vote
for Mr. Clay without changing. If lam
told that Messrs. Polk and Dallas both
voted for the taritf act ot 1832, and that
I shall gain nothing by voting for them, I
reply that the act of ’B2 was to reduce the
act of ’2B, and though the act of ‘32 was
too high, yet by voting for that, they show
ed a disposition to reduce as much as they
-could.
4. Several circumstances compel me
to believe Mr. Clay is pandering to the
fanatical whims of the abolitionists; —Ist,
he is allied to many of the leading aboli
tionists and receives their support. 2d.
He calls slavery a “foul stajn on our
national character,” and says if he
“could be instrumental in ridding the
COUNTRY OF THIS FOUL STAIN, HE WOULD
NOT EXCHANGE THE PROUD SATISFACTION IT
WOULD AFFORD HIM FOR ALL THE HONORS
EVER DECREED THE MOST SUCCESSFUL CON
-queror.” 3d. The letters of Mr. Sew
ward, Mr. Slade, Lieut. Gov. Reed, Mr. C.
M. Clay and others, all of whom are high
toned anti-slavery men, leave us no room
to doubt that they are making large cal
culations on him to carry out their plans,
first to abolish slavery in the District of
Columbia, w hich Henry Clay says Con
gross has the constitutional right to do,
and then to move but one more step and
accomplish* their entire object, emanci
pate all the slaves in the union- Wheth
er my inferences which have been draw r n
from the above facts are correct or not,
one thing is absolutely certain. Mr.
Clay is either an abolitionist at heart, or
he has deceived his northern friends and
slaveholders too, either of which renders
£l)c (Georgia Constitutionalist
him unfit to receive the vote of a virtuous
I people.
5. Mr. Clay’s strong predilections for
English fashions, which he introduces so
freely in his speeches on the tariff and U.
■ S. Bank, indicate very clearly that he
would favor such corporations as the East
India Company, and the Hudson’s Bay
Company, dec., being sustained by na
tional and not by state patronage. And
that he would be in favor of such patron
age. And that he would be in favor of
such great corporations, having great ex
clusive privileges, under the plausible
pretence that it would be for the national
good. This system of granting exclu
sive privileges by the general government
to any great corporations has a direct ten
tcncy to bring all the great interests of the
country under the control of Congress,
and concentrating the power there instead
of letting it remain with the States and
the people. But it has a worse tenden
cy still, it gives those large capitalists
who concentrate their moneyed power in
large corporations, an almost unlimited
power over the working classes, and tends
to foster aristocracy.
6. The private and public character
of Mr. Clay is represented, by many great
men, as being very corrupt. Mr. John
Randolph says, “Mr. Clay is eloquent but
corrupt.” Thomas Jefferson and Danic-1
Webster both represent him as being elo
quent, but deficient in judgment and im
moral in character. Indeed, his duel
with John Randolph, his conduct in the
case of Gilley’s death, and the corruption
in the case of John Q. Adams, which has
been proven so satisfactorily by his col
leagues from Kentucky, are too daring
outrages to be tolerated.
7. Mr. Clay’s course through the whole
of his political life, and particularly
at the extra-session, shows that his am
bition is unbounded, flis various theo
ries of national institutions , in contra-dis
finction to stats institutions, his predi
lection for having all business of the
nation done by the general government in
stead of the state governments, and bis
thirst for something new, are such as to
satisfy me that he only wants an oppor
tunity and power to immortalize his name
both at home and abroad, by projecting
splendid schemes and instituting brilliant
experiments. From the movements of the
vvhigs during tha little time the people
trusted them with a little power in 1841
and ’42, we may reasonably infer that if
they had the entire control of the govern
ment, with Henry Clay at their head, they
would soon leave no feature of our free
government, as it was bequeathed to us by
our fathers, except the name.
My whig friends must therefore excuse
me for not acting with them, for I cannot
perceive that the state rights of 1828 are
any more like the whig principles of
1844, than the music of the best piano is
like the sonorous bray of the uncouth
Jack A s.

TO THE HON. WILLIAM LAW,
Whig Candidate for elector of President
and Vice President.
Mv Dear Sir, — I regret that I was too
unwell to hear the whole of your argu
ments, at the meeting in Gainesville, yes
terday, in vindication of the political po
sition which you now occupy. I was
pleased with the frank and manly way
in which you avowed your change of opin
ion, and set forth your present views.
Believing you incapable of uttering any
political opinion, which you are unwilling
to lay, in a more substantial and tangible
shape before those to whom you have sub
mitted yourself for their suffrages; and un
derstanding that in the issue between the
two great parties to which you and I res
pectively belong, is one purely of princi
ple, I do not feel that I am guilty of any
act ofindelicacy, in calling on you, through
the public Press, to submit through a like
channel, to the examination of the People,
the exposition of your principles, which you
gave to the meeting in Gainesville, yes
terday. If the grounds which you now
occupy are correct, they can lose nothing
by their publication. If they are incor
rect, I trust you are too sincerely in pur
suit of Truth, to regret any step which
would enable us to detect your errors.—
In any event the people whom you pro
pose to represent, have a deep interest in
understanding fully your position, and it
is only through the Press that it can be
fully made known.
These considerations, I trust, will be
sufficient to justify you to yourself, in ma
king a prompt compliance with this call on
your time. It may be that I and many
others' of your old State Rights associates,
mav learn from you to see the error of
our ways, and follow you in your change.
I can safely assure you, my dear sir, that
as there are but few from whom I would
more cheerfully learn wholesome truths,
there are none whom I would sooner fol
fow from error to truth —from darkness to
light.
Whilst I desire, in justice to yourself,
that you publish the whole of your address,
there are some points to which I would
especially call your attention, that you
may illustrate them more fully, for the
purpose of placing them in a fuller light,
and fortifying them more strongly. To
these I now proceed to call your attention;
1. I believe you formerly considered
the Protective policy unconstitutional.—
AUGUSTA, GEORGIA, TUESDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 10, 1844.
Os course you have changed your opin
ions on this subject. Have the goodness to
give us the grounds of that change. As
I understand you to admit that whilst Pro
tection to manufacturers, is necessary to
command the home market, that Protec
tion is a tax upon the consumer; please
show us from what part of the Constitu
tion, you derive the power which virtually
prevents the farmer and planter from buy
ing where they can buy chapest, and sel
ling where they can sell highest?
2. I understood you to say that the
British manufacturer can undersell the
American. But you looked to a time
when this will not be the case. Please
say whether you advocate a system of
Protection to the latter, until he can un
dersell the former, which I understood
you to imply; and when will that time ar
rive?
3. If you continue Protection until our
manufacturers can successfully compete
with the “Pauper labor” of Europe, must
not our own “Pauper labor” work our
own manufactories, before protection ends?
In England, the fields are worked by pau
per labor, as well as the factories. In no
country can you supply pauper laborers
for one class of industry, and well fed and
clothed laborers for another. Whenever
you have pauper labor in our factories, it
will be very near our fields also. Then
if you look to pauper labor for our facto
ries, you will produce it in our fields.—
And protection is to be continued until a
universal pauperism seizes upon the la
boring class! Can you deem such a re
sult desirable? I believe not, and yet it
necessarily flows from the position which
so many whigs assume, who justify pro
tection by clamors against the competition
of American operatives, with the “pauper
labor of Europe.”
4. I understand you to advocate our
commercial independence of all nations.
Do you mean by this that we shall neith
er buy nor sell abroad? If merely the
former, does not the latter follow as a na
tural consequence? No nation can sell
that does not buy. any more than any in
dividual can sell that does not buy,
5. Does the Liverpool or New York
market regulate tiie price of our cotton?
Which is the most important to the cotton
planter? If the former, do you not lessen
the consumption and consequently the
price of cotton, by refusing to take from
foreign nations such articles as we need,
which they furnish and with which they
can pay us for our cotton?
6. I understand you to say, that with
the exception of some six years, there had
been uniformly the balance of trade
against us, amounting some years to 50
or 60 millions. Have these balances been
paid, and in what manner, or are they
out-standing against us?
c? o
7. f understand you to say that the Bri
tish Tariff’places very high or prohibito
ry duties on almost all our productions.
Cotton was the only exception, I think,
which you made. Will you state what
the rate of duty is on cotton and cotton
goods, woollen goods, rough rice, iron and
its products, and say whether the British
or American Tariff is highest on such ar
ticles as the two countries export and im
port mutually?
8. I understand you to charge Mr. Cal
houn with being the early champion of the
protective policy, and you quoted his
speech in 1816 to justify the charge.—
From your response to an inquiry which
I made of you, at the time, you I thought
misapprehended the character of the ta
riff of 1816, as well as Mr. Calhoun’s re
marks quoted by you. I understood the
quotation to place agriculture, commerce
and manufactures on tiie same footing.—
You make the two first subordinate to the
latter. If lam in error, you can readily
correct me,
9. I think yon have also done injustice
to Mr. Madison, for I believe you will
find that his recommendations for protec
tion in 1816, applied to the then existing
manufactories, and which had sprung up
during the war just then ended.
10. You speak of the great wealth that
is to be acquired by the establishment of
manufactories in our mountain region. I
did not understand you to say where the
capital is to come from, in what century
the wealth is to be acquired, what are to
be the manufactories or who are to be the
consumers. Please inform us on those
several points.
But I forbear any further reference to
your remarks, in the hope of very soon
having the whole speech before me, which
I assure you I have every disposition to
examine with candor.
I will request the editors who will do
me the favor to publish this, to forward
you a copy.
Will you do me the favor to have a
copy of your address, when published,
sent to me.
I remain, my dear sir,
Very respectfully and truly,
Your obedient servant,
w. C. DANIELL.
Hall County, Aug. 24th, 1844.

THE TARIFF AND THE FARMERS OF
THE EASTERN STATES.
We have conversed with an intelligent
Whig merchant of this city, who has re
cently been on a visit through the East
ern States. He informs us that almost
every farmer he met with, and there were
many, were hostile to the present Tariff.
I No matter what their political preferences
had been heretofore, they were determin
ed to support Mr. Polk, on account of his
hostility to the Tariff of 1842, that is so
destructive to their industry.
We scarcely receive a letter from the
country but that informs us of the deter
mination of the great body of the agricul
tural population to support Polk and Dal
las. The Eastern farmers in many places
are surrounded by the manufacturers;
they see that while the manufacturers arc
getting rich they are getting poor! The
advantages of the Tariff—its benefits and
protec ion, are all on one side. Every
thing the farmer has to sell brings less
than under the Tariff of 1840, ’4l and
’42; while every thing he has to buy he
'has to pay an advance of from ten to forty
per cent.! He sees that the so-called pro
tection afforded by the tariff is daily im
poverishing him. If he is in debt he can
not meet his payments; and iflie is out of
debt he cannot lay by a dollar of his hard
earnings. He would be satisfied with a
moiety of the 20 and 40 per cent, per an
num, divided by the Mattewan and Mer
rimack Companies, but his industry will
not net him over 2 or 3 per cent.
Under these circumstances it is not
strange that the eastern as well as the
western farmers, should oppose the tariff'.
Mr. Clay cannot get the vote of one-third
of the planting and farming population of
the Union. We say this with no desire to
magnify our strength, but in soberness
and reality. Our friends from the coun
try assure us that the great body of the
farmers are with us, that no argument
of our opponents can alienate them from
our support. The low price of unprotected
farm produce, and the high price of pro
tected calicoes, &c., &c., are arguments
that no ingenuity or sophistry ofthe Whigs
can refute. The majority of the farmers,
planters, and laborers of the Union, are
with us; and their votes will decide the
contest. Their decree is irrevocable—the
destiny of our high Tariff opponents can
now be told with certainty. The farmers
arc determined that they will be protected;
they demand a Tariff for the purpose.—
They insist upon at least an equal share
of the bounties of Government. Or more
correctly speaking, they are determined
that the burthens of Government shall not
be more grievous to them than to the man
ufacturers
[From the N. O. Bulletin .]
FRENCH AND ENGLISH COTTON FABRICS.
The difference in the value of the cot
ton man’factures of England and those of
France is very remarkable. In 1840,
the piece-goods entered as exported from
Great Britain were estimated to weigh
225,779,442 lbs., and were valued £16,-
578,040, being at the rate of Is. s \d. per
lb., or 3-£ francs per kilogramme; where
as, the French value their exports at 26|
francs per kilogramme. The French Cot
ton stuffs exported in 1841 were valued
as follows:
Kilogrammes. Value.
Toiles et percales (ca
licoes) 713,386 at 15f. 10,700,790 f.
Teints et imprimes
(prints) 3,428,208 at 26f. 89,133,4084.
Cires (wax-cloth) 5,250 41,250 f.
Mouchoirs (hdkfs.) 461,752 at 26f. 12,005,5524.
Muslin 274,299 at 304. 8,228,9704.
Tulle et gaze (bobbi
net) 74.129 a 2004. 14,825.8004.
\ 239,359 4,294,1584.
Other stuffs J 74,907 599,2564.
The British and Foreign Quarterly Re
view, from which we derive these facts,
believes that France is secure in the com
mand of foreign markets for her fine and
tasteful articles. England is a consider
able consumer of those which are the
highest priced, and in the fashionable cir
cles the French stuffs have an exclusive
preference. The same is the case in the
United States, Italy, Brazil, the West In
dies and Germany, and to a still greater
extent in Spain, Belgium and Switzerland,
in which latter countries England cannot
compete on equal terms with France from
the facility with which the fine French fa
brics can be smuggled in. The follow
ing is the official specification of some of
the exports from France in 1840:
Muslin 274,299A5. at 3 Of. Bohlinet. 47,129, at 200 f.
Belgium 27,750k5. Switzerland 15,057k5.

Prospectus of the Georgia
SENTINEL—An Evening Paper, to be pub
lished in the City of Savannah, Ga., devoted to Po
litics, Commerce, Agriculture and General Intelli
gence.
The increasing importance of our flourishing and
beautiful city—the facilities enjoyed in the trans
mission of the mails—and the absence of an Even
ing Paper in Savannah—all conspire to render the
proposed publication at least expedient, if not neces
sary.
Whilst the Paper will bear principally a commer
cial character, we shall endeavor to make it useful
and interesting to all classess of the community, by
rendering it a disseminator of truth—an advocate of
virtue—-and a censor of vice. In pursuing the plan
determined upon, the following will comprise the
leading departments of the Paper, which we hope
will carry the cheerfulness of knowledge and the
light of truth wherever it is received.
Politics—We shall sustain the Great Republican
doctrines embraced in the Virginia and Kentucky
Resolutions of 1795-'99, as maintained by Jefferson,
Madison, Troup, Hayne, Calhoun, and other dis
tinguished advocates of State Rights—and more re
cently set forth by the Democratic Convention at
Baltimore in may last—as forming what we con
ceive to be the fundamental principles of our Gov
ernment. Thus, having for our motto—‘‘Free Trade
—Low- Duties—No Debt—Separation from Banks
—Economy—Retrenchment—and a strict adher
ence to the Constitution,” and placing ourself upon
the broad basis of the latter, we can invoke alike
the fidelity of the “Unionist” and the zeal of the
“Nullifier,” in maintaining inviolate its compro
mises; whereby alone our civil and religious liber
ties can be secured to us, and the blessings of our
glorious Union perpetuated.
Our object being to assist in sustaining the great
principles of Constitutional Liberty, and aid in
drawing men’s minds from the worship of their fel
lows, to an acquaintance with the nature of their
Government, our columns shall be open to the dis
cussion of all political questions of a general nature.
In no case, however, will the dignity of the press
he yielded, by permitting it to become the vehicle
of scurility or vulgar personal abuse.
Believing the nominees of the Baltimore Conven
tion, James K. Polk and George M. Dallas, ful
ly competent to discharge the duties of President
and Vice President of the United Slates, we shall
endeavor to promote their election, by all honora
ble means.
Commercial. —L T nder this head will be found
the latest statements of the various markets for our
staple productions, both Foreign and Domestic —■
together with a careful corrected Weekly Review
of our ow n Market.
Agriculture. —Whatever may be deemed of
interest to those engaged in Agricultural pursuits,
shall have due attention, and no pains will be spared
to make our paper interesting to the Farmer, in
comparison to which, all other trades and profes
sions may be said to be but the frieze and cornice.
General Intelligence. —ln this department
will be found a general synopsis of the passing
events of the day, together with occasional selec
tions from the best Literary Periodicals, both For
eign and Domestic. In fine, whatever, will have
a tendency to develope the rich and varied natural
resources of our State, elevate the moral character
of its citizens, or promote the prosperity and happi
ness of the community in which we live, shall meet
with our ardent and humble support.
CONDITIONS:
The Dailv Sentinel, will be published every
Afternoon, on an imperial half sheet, and delivered
in any part of the City, at Six Dollars per annum,

THE AMERICAN FARMER The pro
prietor of the “ American Farmer” establish
ment, expecting shortly to be engaged in the publi
cation of a daily journal in the city of Baltimore, to
which he desires to devote as much of his time as
possible, would dispose of this establishment on li
beral terms, if an immediate application be made.
The character of the “ Farmer” is too well known
to require comment —it is the oldest agricultural
journal published in this country, being now in its
twenty-sixth year. The central situation of Balti
more renders it a peculiarly advantageous location
for a publication of the kind, and in the hands of a
person who had a taste for agricultural pursuits, and
a necessary talent for conducting the business de
partment thereof, it might be made to be extensive
ly useful and profitable.
The services of the gentleman at present and for
several years past engaged in the editorial depart
ment, could be secured, if agreeable to the parties
concerned.
SCpThe patrons of the “Farmer” are assured,
that in case a disposition is not made of it, no inter
ruption will be made in its regular publication.
