jtsq. the Hon. Joseph John Daniel, thu Elector from the Khli district, was chosen President, and being conducted to the Chair, returned Ins thanks for the honor. All the members of the College were present, with the exception of Matthias K. Sawyer, the Elector from the 12lh district. On motion, Henry Skinner, Esq. the Senator from Perquimans coun ty, was chosen to iill the vacancy. A balloting was had for President and Vice President of the United States, which resulted in an unanimous vole for Andrew Jackson, of Tennessee, and Martin Van Burtn, of New York. As soon as the vote of the College was an nounced, several discharges of cannon were fned on Capitol square. William F. Strange, Esq. one of the Editors of the North Carolina Journal, printed at Fay etteville, was elected to bear the vote ot the College to the seat of the General Government.. .Raleigh Reg. South Carolina. We haVe received the "Address to the People of the U. States by the South Carolina Convention' and, the Message of Gov. Hamilton to the Legislature of South Carolina, which convened on the 26th ult. for its regular annual session. Our limits will not per mit even an abstract of these interesting but lengthy documents. Of the first wc will barely icmark, that it is attributed to the pen of IVlr. McDuftie, and bears the impress of his comman ding talents. Gov. Hamilton's message is cha racteristic of its author, energetic and explicit lie recommends various measures, some of which have a warlike tendency, to carry into effect the provisions of the Ordinance of the Convention the following; extracts, however, from the mes sage, shows that all hope of a peaceable and sat isfactory adjustment of present difficulties is not yet relinquished: "1 cannot, however, but think that on a calm and dispassionate review by Con gress and the functionaries of the Gene ral Government, of the true merits of this controversy, the arbitration by the call of a Convention of all the States, which we sincerely and anxiously seek and desire, will be accorded to us. "To resort to force is at once to prefer a dissolution of the Union to its preser vation. South Carolina has declared that she admits of no arbiter but he co States assembled with her in their sove reign capacity: to deny to her this refer ence, is to admit that our league has no conservative principle short of an appeal to the sword.'' C?Tlic Hon. Robert Y. Ihiync has been unanimously nominated for Gover nor of South Carolina, by a Legislative caucus in that State, and accepted the nomination. Mr. Ilayne, of course, re signs his seat in the U. S. Senate. It is conjectured that Mr. Calhoun will resign as Vice President, and be sent to the U. S. Senate, in place of Mr. Ilayne. Georgia. Mr. Ryan introduced into the House of Representatives of Georgia, some days ago, sundry resolutions in op position to Nullification, and in favor of a Convention of those States which are dissatisfied with the Tariff laws, which were passed, 97 votes to 67. And Mr. Kates moved an additional resolution in the following words: "Resolved, That we abhor the doctrine of Nullification, as neither a peaceful nor constitu tional remedy; but on the contrary, as tending to civil commotion and disunion; and while we deprecate the rash and revolutionary measures recently adopted by a Convention of the peo ple of South Carolina, we deem it a paramount duty to warn our fellow cilizeas against adopting her mischievous policy." Which was carried, 102 votes to 51; and it is stated, that many of the members who voted in the negative, declared them selves opposed to the proceedings of S. Carolina, but thought it impolitic to say ,-uiy thing in relation to them at present. But for this, it is said, there would not have been 20 negative notes. Rat. Reg. Hon. John Branch. We learn from the Ra leigh Star, that Gov. Branch was invited to par take of a public dinner by "a number of mem bers of the Legislature, who highly appreciate your private virtues and public services, who arc sensible of the purity of your motives, and feel grateful for the fearless manner in which you Inve conducted yourself in the glorious contest for the reserved rights of the States, and for con stitutional liberty." The Governor replied to the committee as follows: Raleigh, Dec. 1st, 1832. Gentlemen, I regret that it will not be convenient for me to accept your invita tion to a dinner offered in behalf of a number of the members of the Legisla ture. regret it the more, because of the high opinion I entertain of the purity and disinterestedness of the motives of those, from whom this approbation of my con duct has proceeded. If, in the discharge of the various pub lic trusts confided to me by my fellow ci tizens of North Carolina, it has been my good fortune to merit their approbation, by contributing in the smallest degree to the maintenance of those great and fun damental principles of constitutional lib erty, on the preservation of which de pends the happiness of upwards of twelve millions of free people, 1 shall be content; for I believe most firmly, that the aban donment of those safeguards, provided by the wisdom and patriotism of the enlight ened and pure statesmen who framecfihe Federal Constitution, would be a virtual abandonment of liberty; and that the in evitable consequence must be, the rear ing up on their ruins a supreme central power of unlimited dominion, subversive of the independence of these States. Un der these deep and abiding convictions, I have for upwards of thirty years openly and steadily advocated the reserved rights of the States, as vitally important to perpetuate our free institutions; and I am happy to find that my motives and principles are understood and apprecia ted. It is all that a public functionary has a right to expect:- It is the highest reward that a free people can bestow. It shall be carefully preserved, and will con tribute to sustain me under every pressure. Accept, gentlemen, for yourselves and those whom you represent, my sincere thanks for this renewed evidence of un diminished confidence in the uprightness of my private and public conduct, and be lieve me, most truly, yours, &c.
