Cnion of the States.—On this, our great jja-
tiooal character depends. It is this which gives
us importance abroad and security at home It
is through this only that we are, or can be, na
tionally known in the world. It is the flag of the
United States which renders our ships and com-
meree safe on the seas, or in a foreign port. All
our treaties, whether of alliauce, peace, or com
merce, are formed under the sovereignty of the
United States; and Europe knows us by no other
name or title.
The division of the empire into States is for
our own convenience; but abroad this distinction
ceases. The affairs of each State are local; and
were the whole worth of any one of them expend
ed in revenue, it would not be sufficient to sup
port sovereignty against a powerful foreign foe.
In short, we have no otlier national sovereignty
than as United States. It would be fatal for ua
if we had;—too expensive to be maintained, and
impossible to be supported. Individuals, or indi
vidual State.s, may call themselves what ^ey
please; but the world, and especially the worm ot
enemies, is not to be held in awe by the whistling
of a name. Sovereignty must have power to
protect all the parts that compose and constitute
it. As the United States we are e^ual to the im
portance of the title; but otherwise we are not.

Experienced and thoroughly qualified teachers give . Our Union, well and wisely regulated and ce
mented, is the cheapest way of being great, the
easiest way of being powerful, and the hapj iest
invention in government; because it collects fjrom
each State that which, by being inadequate, can
be of no use to it, but forms an aggregate that
serves for all.
It is with confederated States as with individ
uals in society; something must be yielded, to
make the whole secure. In this view of things,
we gain by what we give; and draw an annual in
terest greater than the capital. Our citizenship
in the United States is our national character, our
citiaenship in any particular State is only our lo
cal distinction. By the latter we are known at
home; by the former, to the world. Our great
title is Americans; our inferior one varies with
the place.—Jour, of Commerce.
Amending the Constitution.—The President
in his Message recommends an Amendment of
the Constitution. The modes of doing this, aa
prescribed by the Constitution ’tself, are two:—
I St. Congress, by a t wo-th irda vote, may propose
an Amendment. It must then be ratified by
three-fourths of the States, either through their
Legislatures or State Conventions, as Congress
may prescribe.
2d. Two-thirds of the Legislatures of the States
may require Congress to call a National Conven
tion to propose Amendments. The Amendments
proposed by the Convention must then jje ratified
by three-fourths of the States, as in the other case.
To initiate an Amendment, therefore, it is vir
tually necessary to have the assent of twenty-two
States, and to perfect it, requires the assent of
twenty-five.
Mr. Calhoun.—A subscriber has cut the follow
ing from an ancient copy of the Baltimore Ameri
can, and forwarded it with a request for its repub-
lication;
Mr. Calhoun.—The following toast was given
by the Vice President of the United States, at a
public dinner on the 4th of July, in his own dis
trict of Pendleton, S. C.:
By John C. Calhoun.—“The State and Gene
ral Governments—each imperfect when viewed
as separate and distinct governments, but, taken
as a whole, forming one system, with each check
ing and controlling the other, unsurpassed by any
work of man, in wisdom and sublimity.”
Mississippi.—The Natchez (Miss.) Free Trader
proposes the suspension of the payment of North
ern debts as one of the remedies for the times. It
proposes that each debtor shall pay into the State
Treasury the amount of tht debt due his North
ern creditor; the State of Mississippi to issue her
bond tor it, payable when hostilities are over.
The Natchez (Mies.) Courier retorts;—
“The idea of more Mis-sissippi Bonds is rather
peculiar. She issued two sets and repudiated
them both; she was sued in her own courts upon
them, after she had invited suit, and judgment
rendered against her, and she has repudiated pay
ment of the judgment: and to crown the whole,
we understand, after she employed counsel to de-

I The Arctic Expedition.—A letter received from
! Capt. Hall, csmmander of the new expedition to
; the Arctic regions, announces the loss of the
j schooner Rescue, in the terrible gale of last Au-
! gust, which did so much damage to shipping on
the northeast coast. It was the seventh voyage
1 of the Rescue to the Arctic seas. The gale com-
. menced on the 26th, and continued forty-eight
hours with the greatest violence, and caused the
loss, besides the Rescue, of the brig Georgiana
and Capt. Hall’s expedition boat. Capt. Ilall,
' however, writes in the best of spirits, and an-
I nounces that he has already perfecteil arrange
ments for continuing his researches when naviga
tion opens in the Spring. The results already
accomplished by the expedition are important.
Hoth t^obisber’s and Cumberland Straits Capt.
Hall asserts to be merely inlets or bays, he having
seen them in their entire extent.

“The President’s Message is an appropriate
conclusion ot one of the moat unfortunate and dis
astrous National Administrations that ever was
called upon by the American people to preside
over their destinies. Timid and inconsistent in
its policy, wavering and unfaithful to its friends,
and crouching and suppliant to its enemies, &c.

him to his present position, and returned to hia
