NECEBBITV OK CAUTION.
In my Inst communication, I endeavored to
deduce a useful practical lesson load parties from
the present position of Mr. Calhoun and Mr,
King. Having performed an act of common jus
tice to the latter gentlemen, I lake leave of him
with a single additional remark; I regret for his
sake that lie should have condescended even to
notice Mr. Uuieu, much more that he should have
allowed the editor to extoit from him a promise
to resign his sent. Hut in Mr. Calhoun I have
a higher interest ; and it becomes me, as a mem
ber of his party, not only to excuse him for think
ing for himself upon the great questions which
are agitated in Congress, hut to examine well
his thoughts, to sec whether they lie not tight.
Thia gent lonian has espoused the Mub-Trcasu
ry system. 1 confess I wasnot satisfied with his
course liefore 1 heard Ids views in its defence. I
wss myself opposed to that system, and wule
against It. The grounds of my opposition were,
the danger of Executive patronage and a disbelief
in the necessity of any action by the government
in the {matter. Perhaps the strongest ground of
all wsv one,of whore operational was ,unconscious
—uncompromising opposition to Mr. Van Huron
1 try to keep a watch upon myself that I may not
reject a wholesome measure meiely hccnitao it is
proposed Ivy n political opponent, or support Jan
unwise one, only because it comes from a politi
es) associate; but I am human, and like all my
isee, liable to sutler my feelings at lime* to get
the belter of my judgement. I may have done so
in this instance. A more sober view of things
has rsuvinced mo that Mr. Calhoun is light, and
I was wrong —Mo. 1 cannot say that I was
o*l*ll7 ; for I would still prefer no system at all
to the Sub Treasury system, or any other that
Its* been proposed if the government could get
•long without one, and the people would be satis
fied without one. 1 still believe that this system I
will increase executive patronage, and I still op
pose Mr. Van Horen. Hut it is admitted on all !
hands, that without a self-propelling power, the j
wheels of government must be •'opt. It is too j
much embarrassed to wait the lardy process of
lime for relief; and much as 1 rejoice at the les
sons which its cmbarittssmeiits leach tho people,
I cannot rejoice at he eiiiAutTossiMcn.'s ; nor can
I look upon them with indifference, whoever
may have produced them. From the centre to
the circumference of the country 100, a cry has :
gone up to the seal of government for relief from
a deranged currency. The government is in the
veiy act of framing a response to this (cry. The
question then is no longer.wlml 1 ihiid-, or wi»A;
but of things doing, which I like liest.
I have my choice of a national hank, a corps of
pel banks, or the Sub-Treasury scheme. 1 like
notio of thorn, but that I must submit to one of
them, in just as palpable as tho noon-day’a sun
This i„ nty position, and it is the position of the
whole Slate Right* parly. It was Mr, Calhoun's
position, w ith this difference between him and us;
(hat ho was compelled to be active , while we, if
wo choose, may remain passive. I was aston
ished at the course which he pursued ; but 1 sin
still more astonished at the forecast which led him
to pursue it : for it will he seen before wo con
clude thet the position of the State Rights p-tr'y
isjusl at this moment the most marvelous, d- li
cate, critical, cheering, commanding and self-con
soling that ever was occupied by any parly in any
country.
I commence reconciling these paradoxes in the
reversed order. Frejiaralory to this.l had intended
by extracts from the speeches and writing* of dis
tinguished republicans, to »how what have ever
been the principle* of tho Stale Rights party. Hut
thia would ho an unnecessary waste of lime and
lobar. Our principle* are well known. We
oontend for a strict construction of the federal
constitution,for the sovereignty of the Slates, free
trade, economy in the departments of the Govern
ment, equal rights, and equal laws. We opposc
wsurpation in all iU forma—tho useless multipli
cation of office*—tire cntitgemenl of executive
* f"ow»r—fit Iheenctoaibn-Cn! of one liraroh cf the
! Government upon another. We Oppose ana
l lional hank, and all hanks deriving power or ps
i Itonage from the federal Oovernment. These
" j have be. n the principles of the Slate High's parly
fiom the lime of Jefieraon, to the present mo
ment. We have se n their alternate defeat* and
liinnipha, but v r have maintained them through
all changes of men and of measurer. I remember
when Mr. (,'alhoon, hiinoclt, look' d coldly, if not
; disapprovingly, upon some of these principlca,bti(
; be now proclaim* them from the capital as his
and glories in inscribing them, to the letter, n]>oii
| his banner. And I could fill a page with gn.it
names, who have opposed ua, joined ns, and dc
• retied us, w ithout lining aide to deter ns by their
' opposition, repel us by their contact, or line us
by their secession from our political faith; ours is
the creed of u large majority of tits people of the
country at this moment; ami hence it is, that the
demagogue and the hypocrite use it ns a means of
their own eh vslion. I say then, tint out poo lion
is selfconeuUng,
It is ctmmuiuUng. If we throw ourrclvrs
upon (hr side nf tho administration, the adminis
tration triumphs—if vve take sido with the oppo
sition, the opposition prevails.
I It in life ring —The man who lorded it over
people, Hinles, and rulers —who regarded neither
law nor constitution—has retired to the Hermi
tage. The mammoth hank is crushed—tint pel
hanks have fallen—the la: iff is dying—Hade is
free. The general government no longer grasps
hut to squander,’and squanders,hut to grasp agvin.
She ha* ceased her exactions, and (toured her re
dundant treasure into the lap* of the State*. The
south is unfettered—her field* smile—her cities
flourish—her staple unlramrmled, enriches h r,
i pays the meiehant’b debt* abroad, keeps life in
| commerce, and li comes the currency of (he
country,
It is critical and tlrlicale —We atn opposed
loan administration that professes our principles
but does not practice them—VVc are in alliance
with n parly llntfighls onr battles, hut disclaims
our principles. If we join tho administration,w e
overthrow our friends—if we make common cause
with our friends, we overthrow ourselves. We
recoil from the administration as from the touch
of polution; hut vve must not recede from o nr
fjwn ground to avoid tho contact. We grasp the
hand of our allies with unfeigned friendship, hut
vve must not let them draw ns beyond the limits
that vve havo ever prescribed to ourselves.
That our position is marvelous all will ad
mit. Hern are vve, tho party proscribed hy all
parties—and yet the arbiters of parlies. For
yeaia have vve been per foully impotent; and yet
almost all that vve could have naked, has been
accomplished. The nobles of the land, would
claim fellowship with us; and yet (lie most talent
ed of our coips could nut gain tho place of con
stable. Uy the mere force of circumstances vve
are hack precisely to the point where we were in
US. If the experience of tidy years will not settle
the disputes of that day vve have them now all to
go over again. Fcdeialists.your fathers then said
that the arm of the executive must he strenghlen
cd,or tho stales would devour the general govcr.i'
monk llli time confirmed this argument 1—
Republicans, your farthers Haiti the federal gov
ernment must ho held to the Idler., ut its powers,
or it would trample under foot tho attthori'y of
the Stales. lift* lime refuted this argument 1
(Jive us a strong central government, cried the
Federalists, or the Stales will fly oil. Keep from
the eeottal government the power o( oppressing,
suit! the republicans ; and mutual interests wifi
hold ilia Stales together. Disciples of Hamilton*
was (Jen. Jackson strong enough fur yoltr com
fort ! Desciplea of Jefferson, was the tariff no con
firmation of his doctrine; If eloquence could
have convinced, or suffering moved, in ten dreary
years, would any one of five oppressed States
have taken redress into her own hands ? and
when one did,was she [n Jiving oJ)\ca was it her
sin, that she sought redress by moral force, in
stead of flying off? Hut I am degreasing.
And now, associates of the stale Rights party,
how should vve act? Should vve go over to the
. administration! No. Should vVe make com
mon cause with our allies! No. Should vve
oppose the administration! No. Should wo
i oppose our colleagues. No, Wo should forget
men and forget parlies, mid fixing our eye stead
fastly upon principle, pursue it; utterly regard
less who vve please or who we offend. We j
should renounce no article of our political faith
to avoid disagro•able connexions, or to perpetuate
grateful ones. If our allies can go with us, vv®
should he preud cf their company. If the admin
istration will go with us, vve should not quit our
ground to flee from them. And while We claim 1
this much for ourselves, lot us accord as ranch
to all other parlies, Vv C ask no man to forsake his j
principles in order to preserve the integrity op ;
j the anti Van Huron party, and vve hope no man j
| will ask us to do Ike like, for the like purpose.
1 have noticed the attitude ofour party at this
j time. They ore called upon to choose between I
I the sub treasury system, and a national bank.— I
They, like myself, would doubtless be pleased to
avoid the alternative. They like neither. 'They
would prefer that matters should remain as they
are, until 'lime shall disembarrass us. it wo
must have a sub-treasury system, wo would pro. I
sci one without the specie restrictions. Until is
' quite cotlain that vve must have some sort of a
1 one, or a national hank. In this dilemma what
jis expected of us! What might to have been
expected of Mr. Calhoun, is quite another ques
tion. 1 leave him to battle it with those who sup
pose that he has committed himself. But what
■ is expected of us. tho old slate rights’ pally ol
Georgia, who lias never had and never expressed
but one opinion in relation to the United States
Hank! It is notorious that most of us have con.
! slitulbmal scruples upon litis head. Is it expected
, that we will softly slide over those, rather than
; espouse » measure,that Mr. Van Uuien proposes,
f Some will, I know —but is it expected that tho
more scrupulous of us will do so? Can any
i reason be assigned why vve should break ground
i upon this question, *oonei 4 than those who ditlcj
i with us. Certainly 1 desire no fellowship with
i Martin Van Huron or his party; but equally cer
tain is it that if he and his party will come to my
standard in politics, 1 sltall not desert it. Indeed
If Ills parly had acted up to their professions, the
-State Rights parly would now have been with
them ; but it will requite a long course of repen.
lenre and steady conduct, before I can believe
him a State Rights man. He must get far out of
‘•the 1 outsteps of Uenetal Jackson" before 1 can
behove it. Hutto the (mini. There is likely to
lie a split between u« and our friend* upon ths
bank and sub-treasury question. I,rt us first see
whether it may not he avoided t v fait discussion;
hopeless as discussion may scent, upon one of
' the head*—the haok. A few words upon this
1 subject tu our next. Aral in the meantime, let
, us uy to remember, that a split upon one point
1 is not a split upon ail points, and that the surest
way to Jdrivß ns forever assunder.is to indulge
harsh remarks tovvatkv townie's eaclt oilier, Ik
cause vve differ upon a single point.

TO THE CITIZENS OP AUGUSTA.
To you, Fellow Citizens, I feel confident that
I need not deny the motive* which tho editor of
the Chronicle and Sentinel has imputed to mo of
an intention to act the double dealer in not doing
„everal things which 1 might have done, under
yoyt appointment to the commerced convention. I
think that my whole character is so far different,
that Mr, Junes, hud ho been a longer resident herci
would not, for the sake of his own reputation,
have attributed to me an Object so entirely with
out foundation.
I certainly omitted to notify you that 1 would
not act, and having so omitted, and the secretary
of the convention having allowed my name to
appear ns un acting delegate in that body pin
which I do not impute to him any wrong inten
tion) and the report and first resolution being in
my eyes such at I have stated them, the necessi
ty (termed to devolve upon me of doing what J
have done. 1 did it to throw off a responsibility
which 1 had unwillingly allowed to accumulate
■pun me.
Both the editor of tho Chronicle and Sentinel
4ml of the Constitutionalist deny that the object
of the convention was such us I havo slated it.—
—No one would rejoice more than myself to find
them correct; but language has no souse if they
are so, and all that I saw at that convention eon
strains mo to think otherwise. Tho sp cell of
1 the chairman of the committee in presenting the
report was in conformity with that language,
and ho was not contradicted by any of tho
speakers in my hearing. That gentleman 1 be
lieve, is known to possess the very rare merit in
a politician of being open ami candid in his senti
ment*; at least, 1 have seen most unpopular truths
as well as great heresies from his pen—and if he
j wi itos or speaks on this subject, you will find that
he will justify and intended to support that ob
ject which I have attributed to that Report.
The mistaken views of grclt >n«n
“fit Often followed hy most disastrous consequent
{ ccs. This may he scon and felt in our present
embarrassments. But these are nothing—a mere
drop in the ocean, compared to what ,may lull
upon tho southern country from false views of the
subject in baud. I ask our follow-citizens to tcadi
to listen, and to judge for themselves of the con
sequences which may follow Irom such a mistake.
It is sought to make an intercourse with the
north-eastern stales of this Union unpopular, and
to eulogize as patriotic a direct nude with foreign
countries in place of it. Such is my conviction,
such ia the fair interpretation of (he language
used.
Is tiro southron planter aware of the overwhelm
ing intensity of fuelling upon u certain subject in
I some of these foreign countries. If ho is not,
let him consult such of his countrymen as have
lately been there. Is he aware that o*o of these
I foreign countries has recently given near one him
died million* of dollars lo do away a certain
! system. 1 cull upon tho whole south to ponder
| upon these things, and then say whether it is for
j them to countenance a substitution of the inter
• j course with Ural country for an intercourse with
i a portion of their own—and whether in this June
-1 i tore, placed, as I found myself in raising my fee
ble, solitary voice against the political turn given
- to what should be a mere commercial arrange
ment without excitement, 1 have overstepped
my duty.
1 In our intercourse with tho north-eastern states,
the feelings upon one most exciting subject are
tempered and smoothed by recollections of mutu
al assistance, iu a hard successful revolutionary
I struggle for a high and common object—by the
, strong tics of kindred and family connexions—
and by the great lie of interest Is this safe, and
pleasant, and profitable intercourse to ccascl Is it
patriotism of the Washington stamp, who sought
1 to connect this whole country in bonds of inter
, est mid affection, lo characterize it as it lias been :
1 I feel that it is not, ami I say so.
Why do 1 suppmt our Nuthern intercourse in
in opposition to the terms that have been used
against it. Not because I have forgotten the
Hartford Convention, and the opposition made
lo the prosecution of that war which has been,
truly called the war of the Second independence.
That opposition was the work of their great
men, repudiate 1 hy the body of the people, when
it came before them for decision. But because I

Extract of a letter from a Correspondent of the
Savannah Republican, dated
ST. AUGUSTINE, Oct. 22-
Seventy or eighty Negroes came into Foil Pcy- -
ton a few days ago, having escaped from the In- 1
dians; they belong chiefly to Col. Rees, nfSlale- 1
burgh, (S. O.) Maj. Harriott, of Charleston, and 1
estate of Woodruff.
It is supposed tliut tho capture of Powell and 1
Coa-hajo, will tend to important results; and I hat I
Micanopy and Jumper, with Alligator and Sam 1
Jones, will come in.
The Indians captured had hut very little pow- 1
dor in their horns,and the majority of their lilies '
in had order—almost useless. There were forty 1
rilles taken, and about twenty seven ponies, 1
Gen. Hernandez takes up the line of march to
morrow, as far as Musquito and Volusia, for the
purpose of scouring the country and bringing in '
all parlies of Indians and negroes that may bo 1
discovered. Hu will return in a few days, when ■
1 will give the result of his expedition, together 1
with a out reel description of Osoola. I
Wo havo now in our Fort as prisoners, the i
following Chiefs:—Powell, Coa-hajo, Philip,Coo- I
acoo-chy (son of Philip,) Blue Snake, Eucheo
Bdly and Tmcanuggcc—besides several minor
Chiefs, with about HO or 150 Indian Warriors, 1
Squaws, and their children. I think, the Indian
spirit must now he dampened, and that they can
not hold out much longer
OCTOBER 29,
N. B.—Ten more warriors captured this mor- '
ning by Maj. Ashby. Il appear* that they came
into Fort Peyton lo enquire lot Powell, when they
were taken prisoners.

by others. We hope il may prove true, but fear [
there i* some hoax about it.
“It is with the :inearest pleasure wo announce
to you the perfect safety of your Mr. Corbit, and
that our doubts prove lo ho correct. Half an !
hour ago, tho Captain ot a low black schooner '
applied to our worthy Mayor, and informed him,
that having heard upon his arrival here, of the re- '
ported piracy and capture of tho “Susquehanna,” !
that he was the pirate ; that having a full cargo I
of ovsTKiis, and being in view of Hie Susquehan
na, ho was hailed by tho ship at the very hour !
the two pilots rep tiled the capture, and that he
had 'b~ justification, not to take the Susquehan
na, but lo sell tho passengers twenty bushels of (
oysters, and to wish them a prosperous voyage, j
You may depend upon this report; it is correct.
It i* a joke that turns out very well, but must (
havo occasioned a great deal of uneasiness, par- j
licularly in your city. We hope that your pilots
will bo in future more ciicumspect, and not take

act 26,1837 vvids *251
To tt»c Public.
E.\ the Augusta Chronicle and Bcnline! of the
. Cth inst. Redden J, Cannon has the effrontery
lo address tho public in vindication of an act
commuted by him, which is regarded hy the laws
of his country as theft, by instituting charges
against me iirclevant to the matter in dispute,
and wholly untrue in fact. I will briefly detail
the facts as they occurred, and leave the public to
draw their own inference.
An agreement was entered into between
Simeon K Cannon and myself, for the keeping
of two horses and tbc b ardtng of two drivers,
at thirty six dollars per month. At the time the
diliicultics (alluded to in his address) occu red on
the line, 1 was indebted lo fOimeon R. Cannon,
for four month* stabling and board, in the gum
of one hundred and forty four dollars, and wrote
to him lo take care of the horses until my arrival,
when I would pay him bis demand. But Redden
J. Cannon, regardless of these assurances to his
father, and without any authority hum any per-on
empowered to dispose of the properly,, together
with the driver Wilson,took the two horse stand
ing at his fatbi rs, and two kept at Miner’s, the tour
valued at five hundred A fifty dollars, carried them
through tho lower part of South Carolina offer
ing them for sale, and actually did sell them,false
ly avering, that he had purchas' d them from a
North Carolina Wagoner. Now, was it not an
unwaituntablc, dishonest act, thus to lake my pm
petty secretly and at night convey it lo a distance, .
and, under un assumed fictitious name, represent
it as his own, dispose el has such, and appropriate
tho proceeds lo his own use! By what other and
more appropriate name shall I designate it, than
by that of theft? which, if I am rightly informed,
is the felonious tahft.g and carrying away the
personal goods of another. The taking and car
tying away he adtni s, and the secret manner in
which it was done, his assuming a In minus name
togeliicr with other circumstances lix tiie feloni
ous intent upon him. Ifhehad demands against
mo, why d el ho not appeal to the laws of tho
country which havo doubtlessly fully provided far
such cases? The legal remedy of attachment
was open lo him; why did he not avail himself j
of it! The reason is evident. Ho thought, that
amidst tho general scramble for the property of ■
Mr. Longstreo', he could with impunity, under '
the plea of securing a debt, steal away my pro
perly, dispose of it, pocket the proceeds, and be
ing an irresponsible person in point of pecuniary
liability, set me at defiance.
Wilson, the dtiver, for whom this honest gen
tleman (Hits up so doleful a lamentation, is a bird
ol the same feather. He had defrauded me of more
than sixty dollars, and being detected, to quiet
the matter, gave me bis ptomiasory notes for the
amount thus dishonestly appropriated by him.
which I now hold. The statement that i left the
city of Augusta secretly, to avoid the applications
of creditors, and that I concealed myself in the
stage coach at stopping places for a like purpose,
is a base and wanton fabrication. I loft Augusta
in the public mail coach, in tho oj.vn day, and
sought no concealment. But these falsehoods are
no doubt, dirived f ora the veritable, honest Mr.
Wilson, the ft lend and accomplice in his villainy,
to whoseassertions from the infamy of his char
acter, no credit is to be given.
He lurlbcr says, that “ there was no alterna
tive so secure payment lor services as driver, ai.d
lor board and horse feed, but to seize on properly
which executions had not yet found, and which I
hau not yet seen.” I was not aware that there
were any executions or even judgments against
me or Longstreet in South Carolina, nor do I now
know that there nrcany ; but, I certainly know to
tbc contrary, and so does be. But this is only a
(ilea which he now resorts to, to screens him
selt Irom the odium which his nefarious conduct
necessarily brings upon him. But, it will avail
hint little, when the tacts arc spread before tho
tribunal at which he may be attaigned to ans er
lb; his violation of the known laws of his coun
try; there if he prove himself guiltless, let him
doit; a public gazette is not the proper place
[or such a discussion, ond therefore I shall notice
him in this manner no further.
lit relation lo the threat of personal chastise
ment with which ho concludes his budget oflics,
I have only to say, that lime and place often make
cowered* bold.

vantages. situated on a bold and rapid stream run

the fever’s of the country The supply of water, at
all seasons of the year, is sufficient to impel ten
times the existing machinery. The house is f(JO
leet lung, forty wide, and five stories high; built of
solid granite, of which there is an inexhaustible
quarry in thirty yards of it. There are iu operation
1056 IhrosilesjOOU mule spindles, 120 wool spindles,
3G looms, two dressers, and njl the other machinery
requisite to keep these in motion. Tho tract of land

pine timber, with several fine springs of pure water,
unequalled m the iState, and there is asaw mill upon
