Ordinance, and await the result of a com
bined and strenuous effort of the friends
of union and peace, to effect an adjust
ment and reconciliation of all public dif
ferences now unhappily existing, regard
ing, moreover, an appeal to force on the
part of th'J General Government, or on
the part of the government of South Ca
rolina, as a measure which nothing but
extreme necessity could justify or excuse
in cither, but apprehensive, at the same
lime, that if the present state of things is
allowed to continue, acts of violence will
occur which may lead to consequences
that all would deplore; cannot but deem
it a solemn duly to interpose and medi
ate between the high contending parties,
hv the declaration of their opinions and
wishes, which they trust that both will
consider and respect: therefore
1. Resolved by the General Assembly,
in the name, and on. behalf of the people
of Virginia, That the competent authori
ties of Souih Carolina be, and they are
hereby earnestly and respectfully reques
ted and entreated to rescind the Ordi
nance of the late Convention of that State,
entitled, "An Ordinance to nullify certain
acts of the Congress of the United States,
purporting to be laws laying duties and
imposts on the importation of foreign
commodities," or, at least, to suspend its
operation until the close of the first ses
sion of the next Congress.
2. Resolved, That the Congress of the
United States be, and they are hereby
earnestly and respectfully requested and
entreated so to modify the acts laying
duties and imposts on the importation of
foreign commodities, commonly called
the Tariff acts, as to effect a gradual but
speedy reduction of the resulting revenue
of the General Government, to the stan
dard of the necessary and proper expen
ditures for the support thereof.
3. Resolved, That the people of Virgi
nia expect, and, in the opinion of the Ge
neral Assembly, the people of the other
States have a right to expect, that the Ge
neral Government, and the government of
South Carolina, and all persons acting
under the authority of either, will care
fully abstain from any and all acts what
ever which may be calculated to disturb
the tranquility of the country, or endan
ger the existence of the Union.
Extract of a letter from Liverpool, da
ted Dec. 22: 'it is now quite evident
that the stock of Cotton in the ports Will
at the end of the year be very much lar
ger than they were computed to be, and
as all hopes of higher prices have vanish
ed, all the importers have lately been
willing sellers. A good deal of Cotton
is offering for sale."
West Indies. A late number of the
Jamaica Courant savs: "The state of
some of the Windward Islands is deplo
rable. Ihe inhabitants of Trinidad are
in a state of excitement bordering on re
sistance to the constituted authorities.
St. Luca is also in n similar condition.
The planters and the Governor nre at is-
r i
sue. I no former appear to snnrn witn
indignation the offer of 58,000 on the
conditions imposed that is, to adopt the
Orders in Council, which they declare ne
ver can or will be enforced in that colony!"
4. And whereas, considering the opi
nions which have been advanced and
maintained by the Convention of South
Carolina in its late Ordinance and Ad
dresses on the one hand, and by the Pre
sident of the United States in his Procla
mation, bearing date the 16th day of De
cember, 1832, on the other, the General
Assembly deem it due to themselves, and
the people whom they represent, to de
clare and make known their own views
in relation to some of the important and
interesting questions which these papers
present: therefore
Resolved by the General Assembly,
Uiat tliev continue to regard the doc
trines of State sovereignty and Stat
rights, as set forth in the resolutions of
1798, and sustained by the report there
on of 1799, as unquestionably true, and
worthy of all acceptance; but that they do
not consider them as sanctioning the pro
ceedings of South Carolina indicated in
her said Ordinance; nor as countenancing
all the principles assumed by the Presi
dent in his said Proclamation, many of
which are in direct conflict with them.
Resolved, That this House will by joint
vote with the Senate proceed on this day
to elect a Commissioner, whose duty it
tdiall be to proceed immediately to South
Carolina, aud communicate the forego
ing preamble and resolutions to the Gov
ernor of that Slate, with a request that
they be communicated to the Legislature
of that State or any Convention of its ci
tizens, or give them such other direction,
as in his judgment may be best calcula
ted to promote the objects which this
Commonwealth has in view, and that the
said Commissioner be authorized to ex
press to the public authorities and people
of our sister State, in such manner as he
may deern most expedient, our sincere
good will to our sister State, and our aux
ious solicitude that the kind and respect
ful recommendations we have addressed
Mexico. The Texas Advocate of the
14th nil. published at Brazoria, gives us
the following intelligence with regard to
the situation of this untortunate country:
"Tins federal government is dissolved,
and we are now without a Constitution.
Many of the states have refused to vote
for a president, for senators or represen
tatives. This evil cannot be remedied
according to the Constitution, before the
expiration of the period of four years."
A Convention is to be called for the state
of Texas, for the purpose of framing and
adopting a provisional Constitution.

she hore with Christian fortitude. Often she
was heard lo say that she was perfectly willing
to leave the world whenever it pleased God to I

her peace with God, and believed that she would
leave all her troubles behind and go to rest. She
has left a number of relations and a large circle
