which is contrary lo the laws of our land, and the vows which ye .have taken in the presence of the Lord: And Henry and ihe rest of the feds, were angry at Capt. Tyler, their chief ruler, and said many hard things against him. Catawba. Creek Lincoln County N. C. From the Globe. CON (J HESS. The summer preparations having been made both Houses sol to work, in earnest to-day. Tlie llou-e of Represeniaii ves entered, in a business-like way, upo:i tiie appropriation bill, and seemed to have le gislation in view, instead of indulging the harassing personal altercations ami lite fac tions efforts of political incendiaries, that have hitherto incapacitated the body for delibera'ive and salutary legislative action. Tne Senate took up Air. Berrien's hill, taking from the Sn.l; judiciary cognizance of crimes committed within their borders, Avhen a foreign power sees lit to interdict it. Mr. Buchanan responded to Air. Ber rien's introductory remarks in a very able argument against the power assumed for the Federal Government by the bill. He showed, most conclusively to our mind, that tlie attempt to oust ti e Slate jurisdic tion over crimes committed against in peace, by a habeascorpus, ami transfer it to tlie Federal tribunal?, which have no ju risdiction over such offences, was a double violation of the Constitution. It took from th Stales what belonged to them, ami usurped for the General Clovernmunl tribu bunals a power absolutely forbidden to -them. He showed, too. that the mode in vvlnoli ill is was to he tlR-eied was i:i the face of the CoiiS'.iiuiion, wlncli undies the jurUdicthiii of the Federal cour.s over Siaie courts an appelate jurisdiction mtrely. Air. Berrien's bill now proposes to deprive the Stale courts of their origin d jurisdiction over subjects of their own peculiar cogni Z inee; and instead of making the judgment of ihtt Slate conn matter of appt al to the Federal tribtina', il denies th; right of the State to try an I a lju ige at a!!, a 1 1 gives it to t ie Federal judiciary in the first instance. Air. Buchanan "lanced, w iih gaeat ;rce, jl tlie various moths in which Federal au thority has recently endeavored to eslab lish itself upon us ancient laiitudinarian doctrines of construction, tending to cou feolidaiion. Among ihe instances to which lie refened, the iniei ft rence of the Execu tive witli the Rhode Island politic.il contro versy was enumerated. We have little doubt that this invasion of the State & pop ular rights, Uy the Administration at Wash ington, wiil be brought up in Congress in bucli way as to elicit, in a decisive manner, tlie views entert lined, by the Representa tives o( the people and of the Stales of -the Uuion, in regard to it. Fiom the Globf RHODE ISLAND The Government of the Union never approached, under any administration, ihe ! degradation which seems imminent under j tile present. We have now a set of in-i competent managers, totally without the support of any party, or of public opinion in the nation .undertaking to support a pnv ilegeii i-U in 5s '.a to Ol..vcni:iio.iT ..wi 1!V of less than a third "f the popular vote, assuming to put do vn the principles upon which all the State Govcrinncnis and mat of the Confederacy are founded'. Tlie promises of ihe letter of -Mr. Tyler, (which we give below,) if ever they come to the .performance, will make an exhibition of 'imbecility of a powerful Government which can withstand the shock of all the rest of the worlJ when supported hy ihe moral 'force of public opinion reduced to mockery hihI shame, for the want of capa- 'city and piiueiple in its managers. We find King, the ex-Governor of R. "Maud, supplanted by the new constitution mod popular vote of the Suite, brandishing hy proclauiB'iou the sword of the United States over . the sovereign authority of R. Island; and this, as the deputy of Air. Ty ler, who declares the majority of te peo ple, exerting peaceably the right which h is been exerted m every olh'T Sia e, "INSURGEN TS;" and saying further, have to assure ytur IJxctUenn, that if resistance i.i maJv. to the execution of the laws of Rhode.

In our opinion, Mr. Tyler will find, is it ever comes to trial, that reither the peo ple of the United States, nor the Co'ess of the United Slates, nor the troops of the J United States, nor a solitary Slate (Jovern- j inent, will countenance the audacious war! which lie authorizes Air, King to proclaim in Rhode Island, in the name of tlie Guv.

Washington City, May 7, 1812. Sir: Your letter on the 4th inst., trans miuing resolutions of the Legislature of U. Island, informing me that there existed in ihat Slate "certain lawless assemblages of a portion of ihe people" for tlie purpose of subverting ihe laws, and overthrowing the exiling Government, and calling upon the Executive 'forthwith to interpose ihe pow er and authority of the United Stales to suppress such insurrectionary aid lawless aseml)lages, and to support ihe existing j Government and laws, and protect the State Iron) domestic violence,' was hand ed me yesterday, by .Messrs. Randolph and I have to inform ynur Excellency, in reply, that my opinions as to the duties of this Government to protect the State of Rhode Island against domestic violence re main unchanged. Yet, from information received by the Executive since your des patches came to hand, I am ;;d lo believe that ihe llvless assemblages to which ref erence is made, have already di-pert-ed, and thai the d inger of domestic violence is hourly diminishing, if it has not wholly disappeared. I have wiili difficulty brought myself al atty lime lo believe that violence would be resorted to, or an exigency arise which the unaided power of '.lie fetate could not me."!; especially as I have from the fust felt persuaded ihat your Excellency, as well as others associated with yoursill in the administration of the Government, would exhibit a temper of conciliation, as well as of energy and decision. To ihe insurgents themselves it ought to be obvi ous, when the excitement of ihe moment shall have passed away, that changes a chieved by regular, and, if necessary, re peated appeals to tlit? cnnsiitnted nudiori tics. in a country so mr.ch under the influ ence of public opinion, ami by recourse to argument and remonstrance, are more like ly to ensure lasting blessings lliau those accomplished by violence and bloodshed on one day, and 1 ahle to overthrow by similar agents o.i another. I freely con fess that I should expeiienee g:eat reluc tance in e mploying the military power of this Government against any portion of the people; hut, however painful thu duly, I have to assure your Excellency that, If re sistance is made to the execution of the laws of Rhode Island, by such force as the civil posse shall be una) Id o overcome, il will he tile duty of this Government to en lo;ce t;is constUuiiorul guaranty a guar anty given and adopted mutually bv the original Sia.es, of which number Rhode Island was one. and wlnh ! - ' way, has neen given and adopted by each of the Stales since admitted into ihe Union. An! if an exigency of lawless violence shall actually arise, the Executive Govern ment of ihe United Slates, on the applica tion of your Excellency, under the Authori ty of the resoliuions of the Legislature al ready submitted, will stand ready to succor the authorities of the Siate in their c (Tor is to maintr.in a due respect for the laws. I sincerely hope, how ever, that no such exi gency may occur, and that every citizen of Uhodt; Island will m inifest his l ive of peace and goo ! order by subtitling to the laws, and seeking a rt dress of grievances by other means than intestine commotion. 1 tender to your excellency assurances of tnv distinguished consideration.

In many hundred certified cases which luve been i:;aJe (inli lic, and in almost every succies of disease to which the human frame is liable, the happy effects of MOFFATS LIFE PILLS AND P11ENIX BIT. TERS have been gratefully and publickly acknowl edged by tne persons benefitted, and who were pre viously unacquainted with the beautifully philo sophical principles upon which they are compoun ded, and upon which they consequently act. The LIFE .MEDICINES recommend themselves in diseases of every form and description. Their 5rst operation is lo loosen from the coats of the stomach and bowels, the various impurities aid crudities constantly settling around them; and to remove the hardened faeces which collect in the convolutions cf the smallest intestines. Other medicines only partially cleanse these, and leave such collected masses behind as to produce habitual costit eness. with all its train of evils, or sudden ip; arrliuea, with its imminent dangers. This fact s well known to all regular anatamists, who exam ine the human bowels after death : and hence the prejudice of those we'd informed men againsi quack medicines or medicines prepared and heralded to the public hy ignorant persons. The second effect of the Life Medicines is to cleanse the kidneys and the bladder, and by thu means, the liver and the luncrs, the healthful action of which entirely de pends up n the regularity of the urinary organs. Tiio bladder which takes its red color fioin the agen cy of the liver and ihe Ub before it pas-;c into the heart, tting thus purified by them, ana numi.M. ed hy food coming from a clean stomach, courses freely throusb the veins, renews every part of the system, and "triumphantly mounts the bunnei of licalih in tae blooming cheek. Moffatt's Vegetable Life Medicines have been thoroughly tested, and pronounced a sovereign rem edy for Dvspepsia, Flatulency, Palpitation of the Heart, Loss of Appetite, Heart-burn and Headache, KestlessiiefS, I 1-tempcr, Anxiety, Languor and Melancholy, Costiveuess, Diarrhoea, Cholera, Fev ers of all kinds. Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsies of all kinds, Gravel, Worms, Asthma and Consumption, Scurvey, Ulcers, Inveterate, Sores, Scorbutic Eruj tions and Ead Complexions. Erupt'ne complaint-. Sallow, Cloudy, and other disagreeable complex ions, Salt Kheum, Erysipelas, Common Colds and Influenza, and various other complaints which af flict the human frame. In Fever and Ague, par ticularly, the Life Medicines have been most emi nently successful ; so much so that in the Fever and Ague districts. Physicians almost universally prescribe them. All that Mr. Moffatt requires of his patients is to be particular in taking the Life Medicines strictly according to the directions. It is not by a newspa per notice, or by any thing that he himself may say in thrir favor, that he hopes to gain credit. It is a unc by the results of a fair trial.

RIOTT is in (ine pliht, very vigorous and healihy, ready at all times to despatch his customers, and let them return to the plough or their accustomed occupation. In tendering his professional services to a generous community, he trus'.s that his just claims may be duly appreciated, and his wants freely ministered ',J...-;f; ihe Reason which is now open and will close on the Is, day of July next.

DESCRIPTION. A Zoographcr, capable of presenting lo the public all that might be said of RIOTT, is not to be found in tlies'e capes Upon an impartial view of all his superior and matchless points, one might almost con clude that when he was made, the exten sive shop of Nature was ransacked, and tho very beast inateiials selected and placed in the hand of the most skillful and experi enced artisans, to enable them to make a display of their profession, and present to the If'orld such a wonderful animal as RIOTT The following imperA-t sketch of his high form, great symmetry &c, ntay be somewhat acceptable to such as may not have the pleasure of seeing him and judging for themselves. Like many olHi superior colts, RIO II stands bixteeu hands high upon a line set of hard, long, flinty legs and horn-like hoofs of the high est polish and finest finish, as black Johnny Q's. course on the perplexing sub ject of abolition bis stylish easy acliei and eusttc movements on a court yaro, re minds one of a candidate for the Constable place his flue (lowing black mane and tail, n,i uhissv coat of silklike hair of rich, blood bay colour, give evidence of his pur ity of blood his loud Lawyer like bellow ing when wooing and prancing before an ob ject of his highest delight under die gaztr of his spaikling eye ready to receive h la kind embraces, is conclusive proof of t he great strength of Ins lungs his pleasant docile countenance teaches us to infer,, that bis ctdts will be mild and gentle iti their disposition his muzzle is exactly of ihe right size and shape; he has a set of teeth equal to these of his sire and grand sire, which enabled them lo masticate their t food and live to the great age of Twenty eight years; and no horse can live that long w ithout good teeth io enable him lo biealhe free and easy, nature has given to him a fine pair of nostrils, equal in size to old Eclipse's, and Capt, Harrison adver tised his to be nearly as laige as a Doctor's shop on the lop of his lean bony headr as high as Whig calculation on getting a National B;mk at the late extra Session of Congress, may be seen a nice well shaped pair of erect Ears, that seldom flop, like some hnve under the force of Captain Ty ler's Veto His long, beaut iful,. well arched neck, that loses itself between a su perb pair of broad, deep oblique shouldcr9 aogelher wilh a brisket that challenges pomparison with that of any oilier horser are all upon real race horse order; between his high thin weathers, and full prominein hips, that run well up, is to be seen a backr of the highest form; under which is a chest of that order which will suit either the racer harness or saddle horse; the eye is next feasted with a view of a pair of heavy,- jamb up thighs, and a cluster of heavy mus- cles, that lie about and decorate his all pow erful houghs and arms. If it should be asked, why RIOTT never distinguished himself on tlie Turf, let il be answered, that he never run but one race; that wa four mile heats at Halifax N. C. againata fine held of horses and he was second ii it, althu evidently out of order from the ef fects of a founder a few days previous lo the race. He was then transferred to the hands of a Gentleman whose clerical no tiutis for baJehis further exercise. RIOTT was sired hy that parrgon o Morses, the renowned Old Sir Archit, by Hie Imported sorrel Diomed from whoso loins sprang an inntimtrablo host of race horses that like his fame are well known on both sides of ihe Atlantic, and the pride and boast of each country the dam of RI OTT formerly the property of Col. V. R. Johnson and Mr. Branah ol'Va., was sired by Sir Francis Burden, which was one of the best sons of the unequalled four mile race horse Potomac, by ihe above Imported Diomed, and of course half broth er to Old Sir Archie. Burdens dam was by ihe Imported Citizen the grand sire of the great Monsieur Tonson, and his three distinguished brothers, his grand dam was by the Imported Mouseirt'p out of a Selim, she out of a Jolly Roger, she out of the celebrated Li. ported tnare, Mary Gray the grand dam of RIOTT, was sired by the Impornd Bedford, and the sire of the great Shylock, and many other capital racers, his great grandam as half sister to Jolly Friar, and sired by the distinguished horse Federalist, hi g. g. grand dam was by the Imported horse Old Janus w ho was also the sire of the distinguished horse Meads' Old L'eler, his g. g. p. grand dam was by the Impor led Jolly Roger from whose pure veins ! sprang ttie hrst notu! Jong distance race ! horses ever known in the Uni'ed Slates, j Reference to the above rich Pedigree j will show that in point of blood RIOTT funds unrivalled, and is closely allied io ihe illustrious Monsieur Tonson and the in j vincible Boston who vanquished all their competitors at long distances for a world of money. He was bred by the Hon. A. R. Govan, late of Northampton county, N. C. and sold to Gov. IJ. G. Burton, dee'd, for $2000 at three years old. Noth ing need be said in favor of RIOTT, when his splendid colls and lhtjr performance are known, to such as have not that plea4 sure let il be said that I have many rerti firatcs in my possession which en io show bpyond doubt, all that uray be said in l.iw ' r i. - uvor as a stall ion of the finest oritur Breecer would do well to tee hiin before making any engagements.
