NULLIFICATION.
It is real!)' trving to one's temper, to hear the
charge made by Editors who profess opposition to the
disorganizing, destructive doctrines of the Van Huron
p.srty in Maryland, that it is the reappearance of South
Cmdina Nullification, that an attempt to overthrow
all government and all law, in the States, and return
to a ?tate of colonial dependence on the Fe.ieral Go
vernment is analagous to South Carolina Null-. 'nation,
tie touch-stone of Republicanism! Such a cnareis ut
terly fils?, and those who make it, are either ignorant
of wiiat t.'icy write about, or Louity of wdlful lal-e-1i..h!,
whxh s-LouM Mitj-..-ct them to the contempt of eve
ry honot man. The tact i.-, the two cas.-s are precise
1 ihe revc.sc in principle the Maryland Van liuren
a'iirc!iits advic.jte an overthrow of ail ltw and State
G)vernrjient, and a return to a !ate of colonial depen
dence on the Federal Government, actual unar-
arch) while South Carolina adulated thoprej-ervation
of the rijhis, laws, and constitution of the States, anJ
the Constitution of the United Stales, an l opposition to
the usurpations of the Federal Government. Sheadvo
cited the rifit tif the peop!e ot the tt il coustitution-
! ally to reform the ahuse of Government, while the
Maryland Van Uurenites ndiocute a resort to violence
aiid a resistance to all constitutitui and laws. Now, w here
is the analogy ! The old leven of hatred to the rre;it
foundation principles of our civil institutions is still in
existence; and this itching to throw odium on the true
Republican doctrine, now, is the tame which was to ea
pur loiutach Hartford Conveiitioii Federali.-m to South
Carolina in lKiJ. And when we hear such men dt
lonneiu the dangerous doctrines of the Maryland an
3rc!it?ts, we are forced to conclude that they do so only
because ilxi !iujprns that their leaders and their party
were not the immediate originators of this rebellion.
Maryland. The disor iniin and revolutionary
measures taken by a desiderate minority in liie State of
Maryland, by which the objects fr whicli the State
lovernuient w as termed, were ttiwa rted,are far-t n c ilin
njon the heads of their vile perpetrators. And indeed.
were there not in the hitherto republican State of
Maryland, sutlieient of patriotism an 1 the spirit of civil
li!erty. to rebuke this unbhiiinir and darmaf attempt
to substitute for tbe forms of Republican Government j
the willy and wicked corruptions of anarchy if they
hive not enough of the spirit ot their fathers to stand
up in this awful crisis f r their d'-ar.-st rights, wp should .
lvally liu'in to tremble tir tlie tile ot American Iiner
ty. Rut if we do not mistake the sins of the times
very inneli, thi biq;h!ian:!ed art of resistance to the
Laws anl the Constitution of the country bis sounded
rhe knell of the corrupt party in Maryland. In the jjreat
county of Frederick, where for Electors the Van'Iiuren
;arty carried their wfiole Ticket, so powerful has been
the current of public indignation, that the party have
ictiially been driven from the field, and forced to with
iraw their whole ticket, and leave the Vln;'s to walk
over the field. The whole State is now convulsed by
an excitement unparalleled in this country, and which
Slides any tiling but "food to the conupt party who cre
ated it.
P. S. Since the above was in type, we have received
the fo How m? startling intelligence in a H i!ti more pi per.

The recent elections in Texas, have resulted in a
.d.anire of the principal oilirers of the Government.
Gen. Houston has been chosen President, and (Jen. M.
It. Lamar, V.ce President. We hail these changes a
auspicious to the cause of a htable, consistent and effi
cient Government i Texas. It is notorious that the
! ,te priacpil evil authorities ot , exas, emi.raci.y w

On this ground, anu on i.ns

TexiVus as unworthy the sympathy and assistance of

those gentle. nen is well vouched f.r; their statements
are n'.ausible we shall not attempt bi discredit them
in the sum
sliest degree and well calculated seriously
to damage ihe cause of Texian Liberty in tlie opinions
of cursory readers. Hut adii.iuiii? fully all the facts
that Messrs. Wilson and Postlethvvaite have aseted

thit on their arrival in Texas, they were treated with
rrrei incivihtv. and a want cf reol faith by the civil
iate ovrrnmnt, tint it was unworthy
ot confidence, and that the army w is disobedient to its
orders. The facts alledgcd by these gentlemen to
prove that the civil power was unworthy of conti lence;
and it nny be conii tently denisujed whether it were
desirable in the peculiar exigencies of Texis, whos
very existence depends on the t'eepinjj up ot the ar
my, tint it fhonld obey the orders of a Government
unworthy of its tjnllJeiice ! We call on those croakers
at Liberty among us, who are chuckliu" at this state of
things in Texas, to mark the result. Hy the bloodless
revolution of the ballot box, this unsoun I administration
is replaced by another, which we are assured has the
confidence of the citizens. Will these ill btxlinjr ow ls
now dare say that Texi ins are no better than Mexi
cans, anion whom all chanjeii are effected by the
feword, and sealed with blood 1 Excesses and crimes
hich weshill not palliate, must necessarily in a coun
try like Texas at this time, p:ss unpunished.
It will al.-o be seen, that Mexico is straining every
nerve tor a last elf rt to recove.- Texas; but it will be
all in vain.
There has been a debate in the British Commons,
about the annexation of Texas to our country. It was
all a mere bajr of wind, notice tide tor its idle b!uter-i-iiT,

LATi: AND IMPORTANT FROM FLORIDA.
Hy the last Southern pliers, we have fre.-h accounts
from the Florida war, and such accounts as must mak
the heart of everv one sicken within them. It appears
that about the lth ultimo, ihe bouse of a Mr. Ilijrgiii
Uitharn. 7 miles from Jacksonville, Florida, was at
tacked by a party of Indians, early in the morning,
they made the attack by firing upon a youn lady, who
went out to grl water; they were repulsed, however,
without killing any (me at this place. After the In
dians hid been driven o;f, .Mr. Hiinboth am repairel
j)ot haste to Jacksonville for aid, and a company of 'Jil
mounted men immediately departed in pursuit. At the
house of Mr. Hiinbotham, they found a sick man and
three ladies, one of tiiem the same th it was attacked in
the morning, with arms in their hands to repel the In
dians if they arain appeared. The company soon took
the trail of the Indians, and about four miles on, came
to the house of a Mr. Johns, which was a smoking pile
of ruins, and the skeleton of a human beinjr aiuonsr tbe
ma-s ! At a small distance from the house was also seen
a quantity of hiir, apparently that of a female! The
company then continued on the trail about 7 miles,
when they came to the house of a Mr. Spirkman, and
to their astonishment, there found the wife of Mr.
Johns, with one of her arms split open with a nfle ball,
a bullet hole through her neck, and her scalp taken
olT! ! and she still alive ! Mrs. Johns was able to re-
late to the meti the particulars of the attack made iikhi
her and her hu.-b.and by the Indians they were about
twenty yards from the house when the Indians first ap
peared and fired upm them, wounding her husband in
the brea.-t ; they fled to the bouse and closed the
doors, but the Indians pursued them, burst open the
doors, and shot Mr. Johns through the head, who fell in
the fl'H.r, and his wife fell across his Ixvly. In this
condition she was taken up and draped to the door by
an In lian, while another fired at her, and shot her
throuirh the arm and neck she fell, and was scalped.
Mrs. J. told tbe men that she was perfectly aware of
what they were doinr while scalping1 her she saw the
knife and the whole prtce.'dmrs. After scalping her
and robbing the house, the Indians set fiie to it, and
one of them applied a torch to Mrs. Johns's clothes, who
felt the tli i nes on one of h -r lejjs, and as soon as the
Indians weie gone, "yelling and rejoicing at their vic
tory, she caught up a handful of her ow n clotted blood,
and put out the lire on her clothes, crawled up, view
ed the mangled body of her husband lyinr in the floor,
lifeless, and made her way out of the house, which was
then on fire, and went into an adjoining thicket, where
she was picked up the next day by her father-in-law,
and carried to the house of Mr. Sparkman. The com
pany here found that they were ofFthe trail of the In
dians, a:i 1 turned another course, found the trail and
pursued on for about forty miles, but finally concluded
to abandon the pursuit as useless, as the Indians had
hVd directly to the nation with the greatest speed, car
. i i -
ryui2 with them lime stolen horses and a teaman .t
scalp ! Thus it is, that these vile murderous savnjres
lin k in the settlements of Florida until the find
tiei hborhood defenceless, then rush in and murder them
all men, women and children the aired and the
younii, rob and burn houses, and before the few organ
ized troops can be apprized of their depredations, they

soon be remedied, or Florida will be a perfect waste
And where is the American, whose blood does not boil
with revenue, at the recital of such scenes as the alnwc,
and who would not shoulder his musket to punish their
per pet rati rs !
The Tennessee volunteers, at our latest advices, ha
reached Florida, but had been unable as yet to atfon!

TIIF. HILLSBOROUGH CELEBRATION.
The proceedings of th great Whig- celebration at
Hillsborough, on the llh ultimo, being very lengthy
we haye made the following; extracts, which is all that
our limits will permit us to give.
(General Edward II. Dudley. The character
of the State is illustrated by its Chief Magistrate elect
who, to the greatest merit, adds a modesty wh.cl
uevr proclaims it.
After the expressions of enthusiasm with wh'ch th
Toast was received, had .subsided. Win. R. Meares, Lq
of Wilmington, Iieinur present, roe and said, that he
felt called on, in the absence of his friend and fellow
townsman, to return acknowledgment for the tribute of
respect just shown him. He had known Gen. Dudley
from Ins jouth to the present hour, and felt assured
North-Carolina could not have elevated to bet Chief
Magistracy any of her sons more devoted to her inter
ests, liorii and rai-nnl in the retirement of the country,
he was early trained to artive business habits, and the
close pursuits ot in lustrious life. At an early period
he lia.l acquired the confidence of his count rv men, and
though opposed to the fe.ler.il politics of a large majori
ty of them, he was elected a mender of the assembly
of If3 1 1 . During the session of that Assembly, the
question was aital!, whether North-Carolina should
continue to ch.oso her Electors of President and Vice
President by districts, as she had previously done, and
thereby di.iiiui-h her strength in the Electoral college,
or make soch a change as would throw her whole weight
j U1 f1V)r of her fivorito candidate. liy the alteration
a.ioute ! by that Assembly, the entire vole of tiie Stati
was given to J unes Midison ; and for his support of
that measure. Gen. Dudley was denounced by his fed
crjil constituents. Soon atter the declaration of War
in ll'-i, though in easy circumstar.res. and enjoying
; all the comforts of domestic retirement, fus ardent pa
. triotism would not permit huu to remain a sluggard in
the hour ot danger. He volunteered his services to his

Haleioh, September 1, 1S3G
For five or six years previous to the Spring of
1831, a Negro man of mine bad been much afflic
ted with an ulcerated arm and hand, which render
ed him almost useless. The ulcer embraced that
nart of his arm from the ellxov down, including
!iis entire hand, which was literally a mass of pu
trefaction. A joint of one finger, an a part of' the
thumb, perished and droptotf. A more dstres-dng
and hopeless case I have never I held. It was
abandoned by his physicians as incurable, except
by amputation of the band.
Tbe best medical treatment having fiiled to re

in, I placed him under the care of Mr.

I William W. Gray, in this place, who, with his
j Ointment, has eflf-ctually cured tbe case, alth .ti,;h

se,Tro vvas fr quently absent, for weeks and

tbe last eight months, and I have good reason to
believe will continue so.
