SALISBURY, (N. C.) TUESDAY, JANUARY 9, X821.
It has been said, that although envy, which fastens on
' illustrious characters, does indeed expire, yet it bequeathe
'its aspersions to that calumny which never diet. This
may be true, m general ; but to the latter part of it there
are certainly some exceptions, aa a proof of which we
need only to refer to the calumny lately cast upon Trea
surer Haywood, which has not only expired, but has blas
ted in its dissolution the character of those who brought
it into existence. Who will now dare to whisper aught
against the worth and integrity of Mr. Haywood ? No
.one. His character, if possible, stands fairer than ever;
and in his case, that calumny which endeavored to black
en it, has actually expired, while the envy which engen
dered it, ia still in existence, and rankling in the bosoms
uf a few unhappy individuals, who have mixed up for
- themselves a bitter draught of public detestation.
' The public feeling on this subject has manifested itself
in different ways but, perhaps in no one more bitingly
severe, and in which ridicule and contempt are more ef
fectually blended, than in that detailed in the following
letter, which has been politely put into our hands by a
friend '

are as much satisfied with the conduct of the
House of Representatives) as disgusted at that of
the Senate ; that the amendment of the Senate
is " as obviously futile, as the breach of the fed
eral constitution, which they allow, is palpable
and ominous." Now we think it one of the best
omens that we have seen, that the eastern repre
sentatives have so much more discretion than
Messrs. Walsh and Poulson, Dwjght and Stone,
it is evident that they are not M the law and the
prophets." We are infinitely better pleased with
the language of the New York American of the

Undcr.iuchxircumstanceslhere isno reason
to believe that she will consent to return to ter
ritorial insignificance and submission, nor will
any sane man support the policy or even possi
bility of compelling her to do so. The strength
of our confederacy i in public opinion, and if
that opinion is divided by tectional limit i, no force
can give it unity ; and even could military con
trol quell disaffection and prevent disunion, the
consequences would be as fatal to the conquering
as the vanquished party. We take it for granted
that no such measure is contemplated even as an
ulterior resort, and consequently that such con
ciliatory steps will be taken as may preserve the
Union without a violation of the constitution.
For the course that is to accomplish this we look
to the ' moderation and wisdom of Congress :
whatever it may be, they may rest securer of the
approbation and support of the great mass of the
country, whose attachment to the Union has not
been shaken, nor can be affected, by the misgui
ded warmth of zealots or the insidious arts of
traitors. A sense of common interest, and feel
ings of national pride and mutual attachment, are
too strongly implanted in the' bosoms of the A
merican people, to yield to the influence of tem
porary irritation fomented by the weak and wick
cd, or to the f uggestions of local political inter
ests, urged by the unprincipled and ambitious."
