[Ctnclurfrd.] Th* Repuhlicanacotncidinit with Mr. Jsffer ton determined to rally for th* constitution un- Aot Andrew Jackson, and mske on* strong effort Ao bring back the government to the Republican Standard. In thin effort South Carolina took th# lead. W« have all acted Mir part* in this political Drama, Union men and Slat* Right* ■wit and Whether for good or for evil, tint* alone will determined. Our motive* are with our con acicticca, and our Cod. The partawe have acted bakfitg U th* furitae hialorian of our country and what will We kilt ieeord I know no!, but thia I know, I had rtther be ranked by him a* the horn- Moat votary at (he shrine of Nullification in the pine harrena of Georgia, than the proudest Ha inan with collar of Maaaive Gold that vita on the Tight hand at th* Übla cf my country* opptea aura. Thianalart"first associated u* together a* a party. A compromise of ike iartnediatc sulject in eantrcWttTy baa been mad*. 1 fear it will on ly prove a truce. Th* blow ha* only related the Wrong grip of Avarice it haa never caoaed her to i-.t ge her hold. In ISIS we tltall again l« autm monad to the defence of Free Trade and the un controlled uae of our Labour. Bight* in th* de fence of which we have wagod two want with a foreign foe, righto guaranteed to ua by alia conati kution, or he ordered at the (irril of t Force hil: to aubmit like good aabjecta to the exactions of the lords of the apindle. Thia auhjecl being settled fur th* preaent, I ahoold not now allude to it, were it not that nul lifiera are sometimes taunted with the incfficacy of their boaa ted remedy, in thia late rontcal wag ed aingle banded by our glorioui little aiatoi State, with Jackson and ilia whole federal gov ernment. Th* Palmetto Danner, reared aloft by that gallant State in defenco cf State Right*, tri umphantly waved through the whole contest,and never once atruek with dishonor. She gained, it ii true, not all ahe contended for. A compromise wa* made Sftwren the two parties; that is, each yielded something to the other, and I mistake greatly if kite teault doe* not pibvo that, in thia compromise, the government has yielded more than Soath Carolina, lari us sec. Yota all remember South Carolina determine! to aubmit to llteae illegal exaction* upon hor commerce and labor, only until the national debt was paid off. Juit I refute that period, the Preai deot informed Cungreaa and the people of the U. Stale*, that the important auhjecl of a reduction of the Isrtffhad been under advieemenl in hia cabi net, and that the Secretary of the Treaaury was directed to corteapond, not with ua who paid tri bute, but with those who received it, and to ascer tain from those lords of the spindle what amount of tribute money would satisfy them. Shortly after, the Secretary of the Treasury mad* his re port, informing Congress that he bud ascertained the view* of the most wealthy and imporlau' manufacturers, who all agreed in preferring a considerable but permanent reduction at once, to a lesaer, if gradual and liable to change; and that in accordance with these view*, b* presented his modification of the tariff. Ilia project was a dopted by Congress, but approved by only two of our Repratei'irtivcs, both of whom have amre been promoted to h |h ollices in the government The Secretary of lira Treasury recommended Congress adopted, and the people received thia modification of th* tariff, a* the permanent policy «f the t*ml. Thu excitement is now over, the lubjecl hi* bean Compromised, but it was in insult, a gross and wMiton insult both to the feelings and the understandings of sootltern freemen. "We asks ad for bread," and bread only, "and they gave .us a atone." It aroused the feelings of the free men of Georgia, and vent was given to their just indignation at the meeting* of Athena, and Lex in|ton. Georgia Would have apurnad the act in indig nantly, but sos the deceptive atatementa, and cal 4 eolations of the probable revenue of the current patiparri) by executive miniona, promulga ted ks •hireling prcaa, end endorsed by cctlam faith!*** arms ol Georgia, more tealoua to promote lb* view* of an administration, pledged to reward partisan aarvices, than to guird lit* tumor and in. teraat of their native Stale, writhing under fede ral exactions. These calculation* were intended to demonstrate that the revenue, under the exist ing tariff, Would not exceed the legitimate wants of the government; and although llltir falsehood was then mSdd manifest, by fearless and inlclli gent advocates Os Bute Rights, still militated by th* spirit of '76, they had their effect, Thia ball sal in motion at the celebrated Richmond meet ing in 1833, try a Georgia Senator, and executive champion, rolled on gathering atrength aa ft ad vanced, and prostrating all who essayed to arrest it* progress. Thus wa* Georgia,for a time,hound by bar own eons. Id the car of her oppressors.— But the bands are loosening, the spell is dissolve in; and out dear, native Stale, will, ere long, •gain (land creel in her sovereignly, strong in bar democracy. A rapranenutiv* of South Carolina attempted to play off a similar deception on tho preple of that State; but they possessed intelligence enough, withaut th* assistance of a Washington peda gogue, to make their OwH calculations. They met in solemn convention, ami there, poising themselves on the sovereignty of their State, nul lifted this peimaqem law of the land. Thia exer ciee of Stile sovereignly, hy one of the Stale* of the confederacy, aroused (he government from its ancied security; induced its functionaries at once to change their position, and to substitute for that law, which they had vauntingly declared, a few weeks before, should be like the laws of the Meeda and Persians, a law containing the very feature most obnoxious to our tax mastets—having on it* face • gradual and biennial reduction of the tariffCarnin years, dow n to the revenue standard. Such wo* the magic charm of the word nulihi cation, pronounced by brave and resolute free, man, undet the protecting «gia of State sove. reigoly. It was a glorious triumph of our sove reign remedy for unconstitutional legislation.— Hut, /allow citizens, it is with feeling* of deep mortification, not as a partisan, not as • Stale Right* man, .but as a citizen, a republican, an American, litlea to which thk upright intention* gll panto* jually emilla thenr, that Inr know ledge we were not permitted to rejoice over thia triumph of our principle*- Al'tb* a*me time a draper stab wa* given i a our glorious consult* linn. 1 pray God it may prove a flesh wound but 1 fear ar a all may be one day convinced A ha* pierced Ur it* vary vital*.

But enough let ua luru from these disgusting exhibition* of I tlyrhophanry that might rival the spirit of Romo . in the day* ol Ttlierius and Nero. Lcfua examine the signs of the (hues as exhibited by the people tbomSHves. I hear the last expiring groan of a freeman, a citixcn of Alabama.

By whoso order was he “ done to death!’ That of an officer having in hit pocket a Commission bearing the great teal of the Unit ed Slates. Th( circumstances lam about to re late I read in tho newspaper* of the day, I vouch not for their correctness. I will only promise not wilfully o misstate any circumstance, at im; rcstted on my memory at tho lime. II appeared that thu Indiana in Alabama had camplainwd to the President that the white* had intruded on their land*, who in consequence or derod his military ofticcis, to remove them peace ably if they could, but "by the Eternal to re move them. Some Indian* complained to one of these ofl'uuri that the unfortunate Owens, held possession ol land which ho claimed. The officer promptly re;>aired to the premises and ordered the occupant to yield possession. Owens at first refused, staling he had title* to the land, which ho wa* wilting to submit to a Jury of hiscounlry and was ready to abide (heir verdict. But ou bring informed (hat (he officer acted under the order* of the great PreflJtnl Jackson, he became alarmed and promised subruisaion to tho arbitrary mandate. After consultation with hit neighbors be summoned resolution, changed hia mind, and determined to retain possession. The Indian pursued the officer, then on his march to some military Pott and informed him of the change In Owent views and determination. The Officer countermarched, and Owens discovering hi* ap proach with hi* armed noklicryi escaped in the opposite direction and was shot dead in his (light to the woods. The cry of murder was echoed from one end of Alabama to the other. Her citizens became highly *x**;*f*lcd. The Uorernur, a good Union man, made a formal demand of the soldier* who perpetrated the deed. The officer, strongly intrenched k m hi* fort, and behind his grrai guns, peremterily refused to give (Item np.

They stated that the widow of Owen* wa» then * standing a suppliant, knocking at their door, and 1 crying for vengeance on the murderer* of her husband. The demand was made in vain.

Why under such circumstances rides j the continue to bestow her confidence on Union Governors and Union men. Thera is a strange mystery hanging over this Iransactlim. Perhaps , it is a secret of State, not to ho trusted with the * vulgar. I know not, but I consider it as a sign of lire times, marking tho drgenracy of tho age, and promising but little of that spirit necessary . 1 lu preserve (he freedom of our institutions. The times are indeed ominous to Freemen; — But the motto of the patriot should over be, “nc ’ ver despair of the republic.'’ We note many I symptoms indicating tho degeneracy and prema ture decay of the spirit of freedom among our people. Wc have many proofs* of corruption in our government, some of which wo have endea vored to detail, not to find fault with our country n |( or her glorious institutions, hut to arouse ua to j greater vigilance, and stronger determination to , II maintain (hem in their original purity.

The vetnan Young takes, his benefit at dur theatre this evening, When we hope he will be greeted by a full houre, for we know of no actor i who is more richly entitled to the patronage of the citizens of Augus'a. He is not only one of the oldest, but one of the licit actors who has , ever contributed to the amusement of the Augus ta public. At our theatre, Mr. Young lias sus tained an extensive and varied line of characters, I in all of which he hisever acquitted himself with | credit; being alike at home in the tyrant Pizzat re, or the merry Dick Duthull. In the form er line of characters ho has no equal among us;— in deed, he was such a “respectable villain," in his personification of lags, the oilier evening, that (“no offence to the General, or Shy m in o* quality,”) we were almost induced to hav«a loose opinion of his own morals. In short he deserves a bumper, and we hope he may receive one. MARYLAND ELECTIONS.

[FOR THE CHRONICLE AND SENTINEL ] VERY SMART. The Savannah Georgian “ presumes ,” that in announcing the marriage of the Marquis of Down shire’s brother, tho English papers meant the Marquis ot Devonshire. I presume the papers aforesaid will ho much obliged to the editor, for correcting their blunders in tho titles of their own pierage. It unfortunately happens, however, that there is such an animal as the Marquis of Do-unshire, and that his grace of Devonshire is a Duke, When d paragraph finder wishes to be smart, about matters of fact, he had better know what he is talking about.

' An election for members of Congress took place ( throughout tho Slate on Wednesday, the 24th insl, and I regret to slate that tho Vesult has not I been so favorable to the whig cause as (night have been fairly anticipated. In the district composed j of the cities of Baltimore and Anapolis and Ann . • * I Arundel county, Messrs. McKiui and Howard I havo Icccived the certificates of election by a ma, ‘ jority of 351. This result was brought about * through tho aid and instrumentality of Unguahjt ed voters in this city, add 8 luitd of mercenary hirelings from miter places. Had the election , been conducted with ordinary fairnass—had the i sentiments of a majority of the qualified electors of Baltimore determined tho issue, I Should have 1 had the pleasure of announcing the triumph of the , whigs. But they were defeated by means of bribery, corruption, intimidation, and illegal vo- I ting to a degree uhparaiHed in the history of the 8 country; The hired agerit* of one of the candi- * dales Whose merit lies i i the weight of his purse, r lavishly squandered his money on the Scrviles. I The gcncial government openly entered, by its * officers, and spies, and whippets 111, and its whole power and patronage hero were brought directly td boar in favor of the Administration candidates! v Numbers of Mercenary hirelings Were brought to r Baltimore from the public buildings at Washing- n lon, at 13 dollars a head, for their expenses, while V theit wages were running On, and they,and band* of unqualified voter* from other places, am) in the 0 sity itself, gave their votes in several different " wards The election has proved that there is a '* dear decisive majority of whigs in Baltimore; and lad they possessed a registry law, Messrs. Ken- • ledy and Rtdgcly would have been elected. 11 In Baltimore county the Van Buren ticket has, 8< is was expected, succeeded. The other districts « lave not yet been beard from. The whig* will a| ivery where hold their own, and the majority of he delegation will be opposed to the government. I The administration, and its late organ, the • m GkLr, are in eevacies about the result in Baiu- g more, they justly bed the strongest appichen- : *J sions of defeat; and feared that all their mean* of corruption end menace would be ineffective.— j They now pretend to parade this reeult as an ap proval by this city of the meaeures of government, c but they know better, Messrs.

Mecomb means to set I out for FlotiJa, with six thousand men. 1 From the IV. V Commercial Advertiser, July 26. FROM FRANCE. By the packet ship Poland, from Havre we have our Paris files to the 21st of June inclusive. Although they contain no later dates than we had yesterday hy the way of London, we are enabled to glean from them some items not no ticed in the latter w hose columns are engrossed hy matters of domestic interest. Commodore Hull and lady have arrived in the Poland. Thu death of the King of England was an nounced in Paris on the 31st. The opposition pa|*ers were making strong ef forts to s'.ir up Heelings of ill-will against the King and royal family, on account of the accident at the Ctnnip-dc-Mars. The Gazette de Prance declare* that the disaster has done away all the good ( fleets produced by the amnesty. The Sie etc alleges that the kingdom baa returned to that 1 tearful statu which existed before the marriage of 1 the heir-apparent.—The Monde affirms that the sensibilities of the pedple are deeply wounded hy I the resumption of the festivities, within five days 1 after so tragic an evrht. The opposition papers make a great outcry also ' I against tho toast given hy the king at the ; civic dinner and the remarks with which it was 1 introduced. They complain that the king of 1 France thinks only of Paris and the Parisians. 1 Now it seems to us that the toast "To the pios pctily of the city of Paris,” was very appropiiate, 1 being given at a least, of which the authorities of ‘ Paris were the hosts, and the king and loyal family the guests. But Louis Philippe can do c nothing to please the agitators of the Parisian e press, t Imply because they are not willing to be 1 pleased. The Courrier Francois gives a vague account of a new cunapitacy a.ainst the life of the King. * —The story runs that some Os the soldiers composing the garrison of Paris wete tampered with by two or three individuals, but gave instant informatian, which led to the arrest of the con spirators. The attempt was to be made during the fete at the Hotel de Villec—The story seems to have been received with little credence. The deposites in the Paris Savings Bank on Sunday the 18th; were 398,887 francs; the amount drawn out was 307,DU0 Irenes. Benefits wore announced at all the theatres in Palis, for the widows and children of those who perished at the Cbamp-de-Mars. Tho Chamber of Deputies was engaged upon the budget of the interior. The various articles were adopted by large majorities. The civil list is fourteen millions of franca. The Gazette des Tnbnneaux publishes a let ter, received by a tich hanker of Boulogne,ol which the following is a translation. Offetudn, Canton de Marhuite, 7 June 13,1837. 5^ Sir— I pray you to excuse the libeity 1 lake in addressing you this note, the object of which is to obtain accuiute information respecting a statement that is circulating iu this neighborhood, and in ■ which I feel a lively interest. It is said that a malefactor ill England, being under sentence ol alealh, has obtained a pardon under this condition. He has placed in the hands of the judges a large sum of money, which is to bedividedarnong twen ty pesons: these twenty are to draw luts,Jand he on whom tho lot falls is to be hanged in the piafie of the criminal. If the account is true, andjthe list of the twenty is not yet filled up, I should like to bfe one of the number. I address myself to you, understanding that you have been authorized to receive applica tions. Oblige mo by an early answer, and accept the assurances of my high consideration. LOUIS Journeyman bricklayer ofOffrethun. Tho intelligence from Spain is later than 4id London. Don Carlos arrived at Soisona in Ca talonia, on the 16th. The victory said to have been gained by the Baron de Meer is verified, but the Car.lst pape s say, that it was nothing more than a skirmish. A number of small towns in Catalonia, through which Dun Carlos passed are said to have recog n zed his authority. He was believed to be ma .ing for Barcelona, expecting the like suc cess there. We translate.the following from the Mercure d: Sonabe. “Fbankfort, June 13.—The commercial cri sis has reached us also. Several mercantile hou ses in this city feel sensJWy the shock occasioned by the failure of two great houses in London, one in Paria, and ono in Switzerland. Never theless, as our merchants are prudent in their operations, wo do not apprehend any serious dis aster.” The failures at Danlzic have carried down tho great commercial house of Dueker, iu Warsaw. In tho canton of Zurich, (Switzerland,) one hundred and twenty workmen were discharged in one day from a single manufactory. . The cholera Was still active at Naples—or ra- ‘ ther it had renewed its ravages. The bulletin ol Juno 6 was seven hundred and forty cases and four hundred and thirty deaths, between May 20 1 and June I, and from Juno I to Juno 6, nine * hundred ahd ninety cases and five hundred and ’ sixty deaths. 1 Tho emperor of Russia is getting up a grand i review of 40,000 troops at Odessa. He has in vited his brdlher Austria to be present, hut the latter cannot go, and sends hia uncle, the Arch duke Charles, to represent him. I We tfanslate the following from the Augsburgh Gazette; 0 t “Since the Conclusion of the reciprocal treaty, I the commercial navigation between Austria and £ the United Stales has grown to such importance H that France has become jealous, on the subject. 1 lit order to piotect this growing interest, the cm- b peror has resrtlVed to maintain a permanent dip- « lomaltc mission at Washington, and a charge d’- ' affaires will speedily he appointed, as well as con- * suls to reside at the American ports.” V M.
