'Gentlemen: I have the pleasure to ac knowledge iiie receipt of your letter of the "27th instant; and to return my respectful and grateful acknowledgments to the Dem ocratic citizens of Nashville and its neigh borhood, for the cordial, as well as earnest, expression of their approbation of my char acter and services generally, but more es pecially of my official conduct during the most important, and certainly not the least iliflicult, period of my political life, which von have communicated to me in their be half. Coming from any portion of my ftllow citizens, equally entitled to my respect and regard, such testimonials could not f.iil of being very grateful to my feelings; but I will not attempt to conceal fiom you in how great a degree that gratification is increased 'by the consideration that they have been offered by the immediate neighbors and as sociates of an illustrious friend, with whose political opinions and public acts by far the most important of mine have been so close ly interwoven, and who, above all other men, has had the best means of judging- of Ihe motives by which 1 have been ac tuated. In the course of my journey, rendered thus far dumbly gratify inir by the uniform kindness 1 have everywhere received from my fellow-citizens, I have deemed it most appropriate to the circumstances under 'which it is made, the position I occupy, and the objects for which it was underta ken, as it certainly is more congenial to my feelings, to abstain from all discussion of political questions. 1 cannot, I think, de ceive myself in believing that, so far as re gards myself, no additional declarations can be necessary to enable tny countrymen fully to comprehend the principles, by which my public conduct has been invaria bly governed, and the objects I have labor ed to accomplish. To communicate these freely to the people has been with me a never-failing purpose; and, I allow myself to hope, it is one which has been success fully attained with all who are disposed to judge me fairly. That being done, I am. as 1 have always been, perfectly content to leave the final decision of public opinion in the hands of those who never fail, in the end, to render a just and decisive verdict; and will content myself with thj simple assurance, that the great principles thus proclaimed and acted upon by mo are un changed and unchangeable. The acts of those in whose hands the power of the Federal Government has subsequently been placed, and the consequences that have fol lowed, are before the same great tribunal, to whose decision prefer they should be submitted, without any comments of mine; anxious, only, that the great benefits and b'essings so liberally promised from ihe desired change may be fully realised by jny feliow-cmzens. In the coarse I have thus far pursued, it is my desire loconiinue to the end of my journey. It cannot, however, 1 trust, be considered a departure from the line 1 have thus mark ed out fur myself, should 1 embrace this oc casion to pay a passing tribute of justice, as well as of affection, to the illustrious citi zen, now enjoying the repose of a well snent life in the bosom of vour fertile and beautiful Slate. To bin), more than to any other man livinj, are owing the successful progress and ultimate re-establishment of those great principles by which my admin istration of the Government was directed, aud an adherence to which has drawn from you such unqualified approbation. To his integrity, firmness, and perseverance, joined to a civil courage equal to that he nas so often displayed in the field of battle, more than to any mm living, will the peo ple of the United States be indebted ir the final overthrow of f dse, and the permanent re-establishment of true principles of liber ty, based on the durable foundation of the Constitution. My own efforts while in the executive chair were, in a great measure, directed to maintain the important positions he occupied on his retirement from public life; and the result is known to the world, I reciprocate, most cordially and sincere ly, gentlemen, your congratulations on the concurring results in every quarter of the Union, so clearly indicating that the late struggle, though apparently successful, on the part of the opponents .f onr principles, appears only to have paved the way for llieir speedy and enduring triumph. The people of the United Slates are a?i patriotic and decided in their actios), as they are sa gacious in observation; and the great mass of all parties aim only at the general good. The pride of opinion and the force of pre judice can do much, but it is impossible they can lo.ig con inure to blind them to the mischiefs of those political errors, origina ting in false principles, now so clearly de monstrated in the'cnn sequences they have produced. Expenenee'and reason, those safe and unerring guides, are now steadily performing their destined wurk, in produ cing a quiet revolution, noiseless in its steps, but swift i:i its progress unaccompanied by any other excitement than the warmth of conviction and the force of truth. Next to die benefits which must always and inevitably result from the triumph of! truth ovsr error, will be the gratification which every friend of human rights, and of those who have been their most successful champions, must feel in reflecting trial it ptaced himsell foremost in the contest, and has done most in achieving the victory ; that it occurs while his menial faculties are as it is my happiness to find them, yet un impaired by tune or disease; his feelngs still partaking in all the "warmth and vigor of youth ; his patriotism as ardent as when he so freely risked his life in the service of his country ; and his attachment to lib erty as strong as when he staked his repu tation in its defence ; that it has come in season to confirm that generous reliances on the virtue and intelligences of the peo ple, which has ever been the basis of his political creed and course; and to close with feelings of enviable satisfaction a long rou tine of public services which will forever place his name high among the most illus trious patriots of past and future times. Ttie public dinner which you have so kindly tendered to me, you must permit me to decline. Without, in the hast, doubting that there are occasions on which compliments of that character are not only proper, but desirable; and without design ing 'to question the propriety of a different course when pursued by oilier-, I have, through lile, prepared to meet my friends in the h'ss ceremonious and more general ly accessible way in which it has been my happiness to receive the greetings and in terchange friendly salutations with the cit izens of Nashville and its vieirity ; and which it will afford me pleasure to contin ue with its citizens as long as I remain in the State. Accept, gentlemen, my warmest ac knowledgments for the vpry obliging and kind manner in which you have discharg ed the duties assigned to you; aud believe me to be, Very sincerely, your friend and obed't servant, M. VAN BUREN. .From the Richmond Enquirer. OMINOUS! The Columbia "South Carolinian" calls the attention of its readers to Mr. Cal houn's able speech on Mr. Clay's resolu tions in relation to Hie protective p. li;y, the compromise, &c; and then throws forth the following ominous remarks of its own: "The false and treacherous policy by which their rights and interests are assailed. is strikingly developed in :Mr. Clay's pre tended adherence to the compromise, at the very moment that he is preparing to vio late almost every provision of it, and ren der those designed for the benefit of the South utterly valueless. So far, the ad vantages of it have been wholly on the side of the tariffites; and now, just when they are about to accrue to tis, they set the ob ligations of it on their part utterly at naught, and prepare to renew upon us the vile sys tern of legislative robbery now about to terminate. And have they the blind har dihood to suppose that the South will tamely submit to this ? that, after comply ing with all Oltr obligations, and submit ting to all the burdens of the compromise, we will permit them to violate theirs, de prive us of sit its benefits, and force upon us new burdens as uneontituiinal, op pressive, and tyranical as those about to terminate? Can outrage go farther than this, and is it not an insult to the Southern people to piesume thus upon their submis sion to it? Come what may. South Car olina uill resist it. at all hazards. Pans the unconstitutional taw ihey may, but it will be no Into in South Carolina, and soon declared ho. The resistance gener ally, too, will be a very different matter to whai it was in 1832. Are the madcaps at Washington prepar ed to raise up another storm in the Sou)h? Will they violate the compromise, and raise the tariff, before they give back the public lands to supply the wauls of an im poverished Treasury ? Will they go on to multiply further and grievous and sen sitive questions upon the States as, for example, the proposed feature in the appor tionment bill, which assumes the new pow er of forcing the State Legislatures to dis trict tht ir Slates for the purpose; of elect ing members of the House of Representa tives? We shall republish some of the speeches in the House, for the p'irpose of showing that the power reserved in the Constitution to Congress, of regulating the time and manner of electing Representa tives, was intended to bo used only in the case where the States neglected or refused to discharge their duties, or were prevon- ted. by any cause, from passing a law to regulate the manner for themselves. Yet these madcaps are hurrying on to create new heart-burnings on the part of certain Stales, and producing new contentions be tween them and the United States. If Congress can, in ordinary cases, .direct the States to district their territory, they may lake another step, and undertake to lay off the districts themselves. If they may reg ulate the manner in one way, why -should they hesitate to regulate it in another way? The ayes and noes upon the district clause of the bill, show the character of the parlies by whom the clause was sup ported or opposed. The clause was car ried by two majority only. Of the 101 ayes, 93 were Federal Whig?. 2 Republi cans only ; ami Mr. Gushing, whom the correspondent of the New York American called a Tyler man. Of the 99 nays. 82 were Republicans, 14 Whigs, and Messrs. Wise, Prodil, and Irwin. Thus it is, as it always is tlie Feder alist,, with rare exceptions, going forj a strong Federal Government, at the expense of the Staies; whilst the Democrats, w ih very rare exceptions, are in favorof a strict construction of the Constitution ; and,as Mr. Houston of Alabama says, they are for ""restrainin th ani'mn f Cor.ress w mint narrow and prudent limits, and con fining its legislation to but few objects." Of the Virginia Representatives, six vo ted for the -clause, viz : Messrs. Barton, Butts, Powell, Stuart, Summers, and Tal iaferro; and twelve against it, viz: Messrs. Gary, Coles, Gilmer, "Goggin, Goode, Har ris, Hopkins, IL.bard, Hunter, Jones, Smith and Wise. But '.lie obnoxious innovation is not yel fastened upon the Slates. The Senate lias not yet passed upon it ; and the thun derbolt of ihe President may yet dash it in pieces. From the Mecklenburg Jejfenonian. THE BANKRUPT LAW ; OR GENERAL "REPUDIATION ACT" OF WHIGEUY. Since the Federalists have found this odious law to sponge out all debts so unpop ular with the people, they are denying that it was a party measure, and assert that all parties supported it in Congress. This is a "common expedient with our opponents. Tliey liiiilea monteuver to gain popularity; but if they happen to touch the wrong chord Oh, it was the locofocos did it! or it was no party measure! But, as on mosi all such occasions, when we turn to the records to ascertain ihe paternity of this national repudiation act. we find, all the proofs against poor, sinning Whigery. It was the W hig party who introduced this Bankrupt Law into Congress; they pas sed it, and for all its dire consequences, the ruin, -distress and villany it has and will produce in the country, they and they alone, are responsible. The records set tle I h is question. The Bill whs introduced into the Senate by Mr. Henderson f Mississippi, a whig; and it was pa-sed through that body by ihe following vote : J 'ens. Messrs. Barrocv, Bates, Berrien, Choate, Clay ol Ky., Clayton, Dixon, Ev ans, Henderson, Huntington, Kerr, Mtr rick, Miller, Morehead. Plielps, Porter, Simmons, Sn.nh of la., Southard. Tall mage. Wlihe, Woodbridge, (all Whigs) ami Joulon, Wulker, Williams, Voting. Democrats. Nays, Messrr. Allen, Benton, 'Buchan an, Calhoun, Clay of Ala., Cuthbert. Ful ton, King. Linn, McRoberls, Nicholson, Pearce, Sevier, Smith of Conn., Sturgeon, Tappan, Woodbury, Wright, (ail I)imi crats) and Archer Jiayard, Graham, Pren tiss, Jiices, VV higs. Two of iha Democratic Senators who voted for it were insrude I so to d by their Wlii Legislatures, Mouton of Lou isiana and ll ill aims of Maine;) and Mr Young of Illinois said he was opposed to the Bill, but voted for it in obedience to what he believed ihe will of his constitu ents. So out of the Iwenty-two Demo cratic Senators, only one (Mr. Walker of Missp.) was in favor of this Whig panacea for hard times. How was u in the House of Representative.-? The bill was brought up there by Mr. Jiarnard, of New York, a Whig; and p,i-sed by yeas 110 to nays 106. Of ihe 111) ycas three only weie Democrats Haw (ton of Louisiana, and Wood and Jioosevrfl of New York; while of the 106 nays, 87 were Democrats and 19 only were Whigs. Does this look like a no party measure only one Democrat in the Senate and tlnee in the House m lavor of it? The next move of ihe Democracy was, to repeal this law; but the Bill to repeal it was vtii down in ihe Senate by yeas 21, nays 23 of the 21 yeas, fifteen were Democrats and six U big; of the 23 nays, twentyone were Whigs, and two Democrats. Mr. Clay, the favorite cham pion of our North Carolina W higs, voted against the repeal, though the Legislature of Kentucky, (one lior.se) had instructed him to vote to the vo-.nrary. The next movement was, to postpone the operations of the law to J-ily, lb42, For tins, every Dumoi-r-it in the Senaie vo ted, aud also Mr. Graham of this State, Whig; while I went if three Whigs voted against and defeated me postponement. In the language of a colemporary - nil me loregoing evidences staring them in the face, iiow can our opponents declare that the Democracy are just as re sponsible lor the passage of the Bankrupt act as their adversaries? The truth is. this ai'emptto throw a portion of the re sponsibility upon their opponents, was not attempied by the whigs uu'.ii tl.ey discov ered the unpopularity of the national repw dialion act in all parts of the country, Be- sidtfs, the whig members of Congress, in their Address, at the close of the extra Sessiou, spoke of it as one of their grand "relief" measures as one of the national schemes contemplated by ihe party while electioneering fr power and place I" TI1K REPUBL5CAX. LINCOLXTOX, AVEfJXKSO.YY, 5IAY 23, 18i Democratic Republican Nomination. For Governor, LOUIS D. HEN RY, of Cumberland Codxtv. 5C7" The present No. of the Lincoln Republican completes us fifth Volume; and as indicated by the new proposals, issued some time since, its publication will for a limt be discontinued. To ihe terms of these new proposals, we now refer our readers, and the public generallj. It now remains to he seen whether the party interested in a paper of the character of the Lincoln Republican, will sustain il under the arrangement now proposed. If so, sr.bscribers may expect the 1st no. of the sixth volume as soon as a sufficient number of names has been obtained. The present subscribers will remember, that the paper will be sent to no one, who does not coniply with the terms below. We annex the new prospectus in order that the attention of all our readers may be again called to this subject. NEW TERMS o F The riTllIE Pioprietors of the Lincoln Republican JO- Press, finding it impossible to continue Ion" the present system of credit have determined to issue proposals under which that paper will be con ducted after the closo of the present Volume. And with the view of rendering its circulation as wide as possible, they oiler it to the public on the follow iag terms, viz: At Two Dollars a year, payable in advance. The rwtnes of the present subscribers, will, corr sc iuently, at ths expiration of the present Volume bu stricken from the list, unless the advance pay ment for the ensuing year be made before the firs! riumlH' is issued. The Proprietors deem it unnecessary to ofTer anj arguments to show the nsccs-iity of keeping the Republican in operation. It is the most Western pa per in the Stale devolcd to the cause cf Kepub licixn principles, white there arc i wo other Presses of opposite politics still to the West of Lincolntan And it must be apparent to every one, that the Democratic population of Lincoln and the sur rounding Counties, require an organ through which their doctrine and sentiments may be advo cated. The Proprietors, have no pecuniary interest in view they seek no gain for themselves, but have been induced to make these proposals solely by the desire to render the Press more efficient in the cause in which it is engaged. Those persons to whom a Prospectus is sent arc requested to return it to the ofnee by the first day of Jane next. And immediately after the receipt of the first number they will transmit the amount of money arising from the subscriptions they have received. Should the number of names thus returned, le sufficient to warrant the Proprietors in commencing another Volume, the subscribers may expect the first No. wilhin a few weeks after the termination if the present Volume. Lincolnton, April 13, 181$. As we shall not issue another pa per for some three or four weeks, we would remind our friends in Lincoln, and that part of Cleaveland attached to Lincoln that there will be a meeting in this place, on the Wednesday of the next June Court, to nominate a Democratic ticket for the Legislature. $CjF All persons indebted to this office for subscription, Job Printing, Advertising, or blanks, are hereby notified, that they must make payment immediately.

Per sons living at a distance, can remit to us through Post Masters, who are authorized by law wfrunk remittances to Newspaper publishers. We make this demand thus peremptorily because the demands upon us are peremptory. If it is not attended to, we will be compelled to resort to still harsher, and more effectual measures to enforce our just rights. IC7" The Highland Messenger accuses us of "a perversion" in commenting upon an article which appeared in lhat paprr some wciLs since. It steins to us, that the best way for the Editors to hav made out their charge, if true, would have been to have republished their article along with our comments ; out instrad of that, they only refer to it. We have lost the num ber")!' ihe Messenger containing the article referred to, or we would assist them in their work. Wo do not now recollect ihe precise language of thai article but we know, that in assigning the Editors the position we did, we only gave the impres sion which a perusal of their article aiade upon our mind. Tne Editors affect the most holy horror at our course, and exclaim, "Has the man no candor no sense of propriety no con sciousness of the claims of mora! justice?" Hypocrites ! how dare tliey talk to us of candor,ol propriety , of the claims cf moral justice.1 men who perverted so many of the acts cf Mr. Van Bnren used the "standing army" humbug, the "llooe cafe" humbug, and -all that ! verily is this the age of bronze. Nothing interesting from Congress this week. charlotte: .mail. The following is the schedule for toule No. 21 72, (between Charlotte ai.d Lincoln ton,) recently ordered by the Postmaster General. Leave Charlotte Mondays and Thursdays at 4 a. m., arrive at Lincolnton same days by 12 iM. Leave Lincolnton Sundays and Wednes days at 3 a- rn., arrive at Charlotte same days b3 p. m. The Highland Messe.iger reiterates its assertion that there were ladies pieseni on the occasion of Mr. Henry's addressing ihe people at Ashville, and that they weie forced to leave the assemblage by some low expression which lell from Mr. Henry in the course of his speech. Now, we have the evidence uT Mr. Henry and two other highly re-pectable gentlemen, that they saw no ladies there; besides, we are informed by the Editor of the Mecklenburg Jeffersonian, that he "heard a highly res pectable Whig, and one high in ihe conli dence of his party, who was present dur ing the whole of Mr. Henry's speech at Ashville, say positively thai no ladits were present during the delivery of any portion of that address." Strange, il there w ere any ladies present that all these witnesses should have been there, and not seen them! As to the "issu e of verac ity," the Editors of ihe Messenger will see lhat it has been made, not by us, not by .Mr. Henry nor the two other gentlemen referred to by ns, but by "a highly res pec- table Whig, and 'one high in the -confidence of his pariy .,r They must settle it wnn him as best they can. What we say is, that Mr. Henry had not any "knowledge that there were ladies in attendance at the rime he was addressing the prople at Ash ville, (and the Editois of the Messenger do not now pretend lhat he had,) aird that if there were, and he, unconscious of ihe fact, dropped any expressions offensive to fe male delicacy, il was mean and contempti ble in those Editors to seize upon ihe oc currence, &; herald it abroad to bis injury. I5ut what were ihe low expressions used by Mr. Heiny? The Edi'.o's of the Mes senger -entrench themselves behind their modesty oh, la !) and refuse to teli! Now, although lie spoke tinder the belief that no ladies were preseni, we have not been able to hear of any expressions which he made use of, but such as female delicacy, unless over-nice, could have stood. We are there fore inclined to think lhat the "modesty" of these Editors is all affectation, put on to enable them to inflict a deeper wound upon Mr. Henry s reputation At least, it can not be considered very unchariiable to as cribe such a piece of petty hypocrisy to men, who procured subscribers to a politi cal paper under the promise that it should be mainly religious in its character. For the Lincoln Republican. Mr. Editor, I see published, in the Republican of itiellth inst, the proceed ings of a meeting held in Lincolnton on the 3d and 7ih inst., which I have no objections to only the word " disorganizes " being applied lo the people who wish a division of ihe County. Now I rontend. that ihe meeting held at I). Hoffman's Esq. on the 30ih o It., was in accordance with the broad basis of the Constitution of the State of North Carolina, which says, (in the declar alin of Rights, 18 sec:) that "the people have a right lo assemble together, to con sult for the common good, lo instruct their Representatives, apply lo the Legislature for redress of grievances." Now we con sider, that we labor under grievances, and we have commenced to obtain a redress.- We have enlie do not iu erd i ltd "during the war," and to lay down tur ain.s until we obtain our rights. The opposition to us, need not be so vigorous against the di vision, until tliey know where the division line will be defined. A (itizex of Lincoln County. For the Lincoln Republican. "iih Chapter oi Chronicles. Now it came lo pass, in the first year of ihe reign of Federalism, in the first month of said year, that William the Chief ruler in ihe land uf liberty, put forth his decree: Calling upon the rulers and wise men, say ing unto ihem "ye must come up to the great ciiy Washington, aid ye most do great things for all ihe people of this land: for ye have promised them manj fine things, and good times; and if ye do not those things for them which ye have promised, then they will rise up ami drive you out of office, and put good democrats in your places; and they will cause all ihe hds to be put to shame, insomuch thai the good people i.f ihe land of liberty will noi believe your false promises any more: and they will hearken ft'uto the Democrats of lh land and follow alter tliein; But before those wise men were gathered together at the great city, it came to pass thai the Lord called William the Chief ru ler of ihe land away from them and ho slept with his Fathers; and was buried iit ihe city of Washington, in great pomp anil royally by the feds; insomuch, that tl.o good people of the land murmured greatly against them: saying, "ye have done evil in the sight of the Lord: and in ihe sight of all the people." And Capt. Tyler the next chief to William, reigned in his stead. Hut it came to pass, when the wise men, and the great men-, tvere gathered together as William the greal had commanded iliem lhat they were divided and when the Feds saw that ihey could not igive unto the peo ple of the land these fine good things an I good times which they had promised unto ihem, they began to cry out against Martin and against his friends, and say many hard things against them aud they bro't up ma ny false charges against Martin and againsl his friends, and against Andrew the great; but the people said, nay. ye have promised us those good times, and if you do not give them unto us as you have said, we will rise up against you and cause you to be put out of office." And the feds were confounded and began to fear greatly. Hnt Henry of the west, Yose up and open ed his great mouth, and said tiuio lhe feiL; "lie not discouraged but hearken unto me, ard 1 will tell you what we must do. And the feds with one accord said," pppak on, master, and we will hear thee, and we will obey thy voice, for who is like unto Henry in all the latrtl of Federalism? And I lenry oppnp'1 lii m.mh, anil said unto ihem, "ye must put out all the officers and chief men of Martin, and ye must set up ft-ds in their places, and ye must throw down his Sub-Trtasury, and do away all his hard money humbug-; and we will set up our great monster in its staed, even that lreat monster which Andrew the great did cause to be thrown down; and ye must call on all the people of the land to bow down aud st'rve this great monster by giving unto iia tenth part of nil they postess, and we will make the people believe they cannot live without this greal monster to reign over them and regulate their trade ami money concerns and moreover, ye must borrow all the Gold an-d the Silver of the Nations rcuud about, thai we may be able to setup and feed this great monster and we ihe feds) will live well on the fat things which the monster doth throw away: and ye and your wives and your Iitile ones need not work any more." And many of the feds shouted and faid, "great art thou, Henry, & thou shall I e our next Ciiief ru ler in this land of Federalism !" . But one of ihe w ise men of Democracy rose up, and said onto Henry; "you do ex ceedingly t rr. in your counsel; for the peo ple of our happy land will not have you nor your monster to reign over them; nei ther will they hearken unto your voice: for ye do f resk contrary to ihe laWb of our land, and the liberties thereof, and your counsel leadeth unio monarchy, and despot ism. But Henry was angry and said unto sill the Democrats, "we (the Whigs) will do as we please: for we have all power in our hands, and we willcompfll all ihe peo ple to obey our voice and serve this mon ster." And the ft t!s said unto IL, "speak on.rraster, & v e w ill obey you." Henry caused Martin's Sub-Treasury to be thrown down, and caused the great monster to be brought up to the great city, and the feds called on Capt: Tyler the chief ruler of the land, to rotr.e up and help lh tn to set tip this great n'onster: but when Capt. Tyler saw this greal monster and its cloven foot and great ln;rn, he was angry and over set him; and said unto the feds, "ve do es- cet'Jinly r ir in your -jys: for ye do ihst.
