" fparsuant to public notjeo previously given, a nura tr of the citizen3 of this town assembled at the Academy on Friday evening last, for the purpose 'of farming a Literary and Scientific Association. The Won. John R. Donnell was called to the Chair, and ilvMES VV. Bryan? Esq. elected Secretary. The 4lcv. Messrs. Goodmax, Hurd, and Armstrong, d jlivercd their sentiments at large, approving highly cfthe proposed Institution; inculcating the vast prac tical benetits that had been derived from similar ai ry iation? in the middle and northern States, and the -reat advantages and inducements that would thus be held out to the citizens in general, of acquiring, a ' iUd Oi lniormauuii, ij-w mwu iwty iiuw nave uu a.- n-Ai. The meeting was next addressed by Messrs. J. 11. liayNj Donnell &, Jones, who dwelt much upon .u.. ;mnrtinnn nfn crrtciA fidiir.nt inn. nnd :i wpII li;r.in- :ne mind; that such constituted the elements of ra tional happiness, and that in a government founded jo exclusively upon public opinion, as our own, the -c6t and surest guaranty for its perpetuity was to be f,unJ in the intelligence of its citizens ; that the. In terchange of sentiment and opinion, upon literary and - dentine subjects, with an4 occasional lecture upon .i-imp one. of their branches, whilst it had a tendency y produce mutual advantages and benefits, would be productive of much sociality and good feeling among r:r citizens To the rising generation, the benefits D be derived from the proposed Institution, were de picted as being incalculable ; and that parents and guardians, could not but view with pleasure, the es tablishment of ah institution fraught with so many advantages to the youth of our town. A committee consisting of the Rev. Messrs Arm r'.rong and Goodman, the Hon John II. Donnell and vjohnll. Bryan, Esq. were appointed to draft the ar ticles of association. These gentlemen, after retiring fir a -short time reported to the meeting seven articles i . i ' ... 1.1-1 ( i agreement, wnicn were unanimously auoptea, ana k ;bbcquently signed by the gentlemen present . An v. ill explain the object of the association. The assb- i.ition is to be called the Newbern Lyceum, and to be composcJ of those who will regularly pay the sum of one dollar in themonths of January and Julyin each year of their membership. A Reading Room thcill be opened for the reception of visitors, 4'ho are i. jbtcribers fo eooii as practicable. The books, maga- rinr and papers to be procured by the Committee of Turchases, shall be wholly ot a literary and scientific rharactcr, to the -use of which, every member shall have an equal claim. No publication of a pdlitical f ;iature shall, on any account, be admitted within the Room, nor any discussion of the same kind, be ever ion to provide for the delivering of lectures, by gen- . .:mcn of professional attainments,! upon eubjects of ireful knowledge. Young gentlemen, who are echol- ars in the Academy, or bcnoolsot this town, and who have attained the character of excellence in the first classes of these institutions, on a certificate from their teachers, shall be entitled to all thrjbencfitsof the Room The following gentlemen were appointed to pro ' are eubscribers to the articles of this association, viz. the Rev. Messrs. Armstrong, Hurd and Goedman, a'l Messrs. J. R. .Donrtell, J.H.Bryan, James G. is fevenson and John M. Roberts. On motion of the Rev. Mr. Armstrong, it was Resolved, That a committee of five be now ap pointed by the Chairywhose duty it shall be to draft a Conktitution upon thp basis of the articles of associa tion, and frame' a system of: laws, and present them fjr consideration at the next meeting of this body. The following gentlemen constitute that Commit 'c, viz: the Rev. Messrs. Armstrong, Hurd, and .Goodman, and Messrs. J.H.Bryanand D. W.Jones. Various propositions wer ? gubmitted and adoptedand the meeting then adjourned to meet this evening in tho Academy at 7 o'clock. . ! The great spirit of liberality in which1 this institu :on is' conceived, and the beneficial results which :say be expected from it, cannot but ensure the sup port and patronage of our citizens. It is hoped, therefore, as the Constitution is. to be submitted for c onsideration and adoption this evening, that the meeting will be numerously attended. Sound Doctrine We have placed on our second page an article, published a few weeks ago in the Banner of the Constitution in relation to the powers of the '.Supreme Court, to which we beg the particu ijr attention of all our readers. Mr. Webster and t-e high-toned ; federalists generally, contend that this tribunal is the-constitutional and final arbit er cf all questions which -.an arise bet ween a S tate -id the General Government. The long and pow erful array of authorities, in the article alluded to, 1 destroys this, position, and establishes beyond all Vviestion, the principle that the States," who are par ses to the compact, " in cases of a deliberate, palpa ble, and dangerous exercise of powers not yriintH tr w & O w tw the Federal Government, are in duty bound to inter pose, tor arresting the progress of the evil, and for maintaining, within their respective limits, the authc- r mies nghts, and liberties appertaining to them." Thcsurn Mned is an extract from the correspondence c; tho TJ ;v i . w vuinona inquirer. Every thing in allusion tho President wi-1 probably por50e in relation to the Bank question, is at present inter esting, and we are glad to see that no doubt. is en tertained of his sentiments on the Subject. He has thus far realized the expectations of his friends, and he will not disappoint their hopes in reference to the existing emergency. His veto of the Bank bill will be hailed with enthusiasm by millionsand the grati tude of the people will reward the PatrioMJhief by a renewed expression of their confidence. " And then the Bank. The 'Opposition are crow ing. They say they have us upon the hip, and that our fate is sealed ! "And you will see the oH Hero's character tested, or I am much mistaken. I think I know the man. I have never been deceived in him. The people of the United States can do as they please about re-electing him. I know so far as he is personally concerned in the matter, he does not care a groat for it." Mr. Clay, in his late speech, distinctly avows his determination to adhere to the protective system. He says that there ought to be a reduction from the present taxes, of seven millions per annum, leaving eiohteen millions, or about six millions more than the legitimate expenditures of the government will re nnim. Wines, silks, perfumery, and in short, every thing that the rich require, are to be imported free of duty, while articles required oy me laoonng classes, coarse woollen?, palt, sugar, molasses, iron, &c. shall remain taxed at their present high rates ! This, too, he calls a modification a compromise ! He is not even willing that there shall be a prospective reduc tion of the taxes which now oppress the South the Northern factories are to be sustained by enormous bounties, at all hazards. Mr. Hayne, the eloquent and fearless advocate of Southern Rights, replied to Mr. Clay, in a speech of great ability. The follow ing remarks in relation to it, we copy from the Balti more Republican. . " The debate upon Mr. Clay's resolution on the Tariff was resumed on Monday in the Senate. 'Mr. Hayne rerflied to Mr. Clav in n nt.vl'pnf elonuencrand argument, which is highly extolled by aljwho heard him, and which was to have been expected from his loftv character as an orator and senator. In a single handed contest with the South Carolina senator it lit .V a a 'i . "j r ki wouia Decome me champion ot the " system" to rally all his strength and put forth all his powers. He has a Home, unhackneyed, enthusiastic antagonist, who can grapple with him on fearless- terms and try his capacities to their utmost stretch. So great was the interest felt to hear Mr. Hayne, and so large, accord ingto the Intelligencer, the number both of la lies an 1 gentlemen, who attended, that all the space in the Chamber which could be occupied, was filled some time before the Senate proceeded to business. " The point of Mr. Haynes argument, may be infer red from the amendment which he proposed to the resolution which was to the effect of recommending that the .duties on all articles imported from foreign countries "be so reduced that the amount of the pub lic revenue shall he sufficient, to defrav thp. fijnnnsp.n of governmcut according to the present scale, after J. 1 i j ? 1 ! 1 I a II uie payment oi me puoiic aeDt ; ana mat, allowing a reasonable time for the gradual reduction oic bre- sent high duties on the articles coming in competition witu similar articles made or produced witmn the United States the duties be ultimately equalized, so that the duty on no article shall, as compared with the value of that article, vary materially from the general average." "THE NEWBERN MAIL ROUTE.'' A corref pondent of tho Cane Fear Recorder remarks that, " the great public accommodation which was anticipated from the establishment of a northern mail route via Newbern, lias thus far com pletely failedand in fact this community, instead of being benefitted, has been greatly discommoded. Letters and papers from the North, mailed for this route, are frequently from 9 to 15 days reaching here, and no dependence can be placed upon it." We are aware that the people of Wilmington in common with the citizens of this place, have been subjected to inconvenience in consequence of repeated irregu larity in the transmission of the mail between Eden- ton and Washi ngton. Frequently, during the present winter, the Washington stage, after waiting three or four hours for the Edcnton mail, has been obliged to proceed without it, and on some occasions, expresses have followed the stage and delivered the mail at our Post Office at a late hour of the night, and consequent ly after the departure of the Wilmington mail. The Postmaster General, in order to ensure uninterrupted regularity on this line, stipulated for the employment of a steam-boat to transmit the mail bet ween Eden ton and Plymouth, and the contractor engaged to have it in readiness on the first of October last. Thi3 part of the contract has not been performed and hence the irregularites of which our Wilmington friends complain. We have, however, within a few days, seen a letter from the contractrr on that part of the route, in which he states that the boat will be on the line in a week or two. The evil to which we have adverted is, therefore, only temporary, and the public may confidently calculate on deriving from this line, a degree of accommodation of which no other in the State is susceptible. The entire distance, from New York to Wilmington, is performed in less than five days, and first rate four horse post coaches offer every facility for expeditious and comfortable travelling. We copy from the Raleigh Star the proceeding of a Jackson meeting held in that city. It has been suggests i to us that similar meetings, for the purpose of nominating a candidate for elector of this electoral district, should be held in the counties composing it, in the course of the ensuing month. It is expected that the Chairmen ofthe adjourned Jackson meetings will direct proceedings to be held accordingly. S ij The Washington, N. C. Union, of the 20th states, that vessels are much wanted there, and that twenty- five could" find immediate employment. They are also wanted in this place. The London Morning Chronicle of Nov. 22d, con tains an O. P. Q,. letter, dated Paris, Nov. 19th, of which the following is an extract : " I am obliged to state that the Napoeleon party in France is most formidnhlp. T .mil's Philinnp nnA ho Ministers are avast deal more afraid ofthe Duke of Reichstadt than they are of the Duke Bourdeaux. Austria has refused to avow what her intentions are with regard to theson of Napoleon. There are sixty nine ISapoleonists in the Chamber of Deputies." From the Richmond Enquirer.

Intelligencer would icjMCbcui u. we narve now, what we have not had for many years, a decided Republican Party in the H. ot K., and a party that is increasing daily. This political movement of the Bank, is intended, while his own election is Dendi Jackson into a support ofthe Bank, or to array against wu.uu.uua iiuu seinsn mends. W e risk hide, however, in saying, that ii will prove as injuri ous to the success of the Institution, as it is fortunate for the Republicans oi the Old School. In thi point of view, it will have an admirable effect. It will rouse them throughout the Union. Our battle will be on the old ground, viz : Jackson, low taxes and the Constitution against Clay, monopolies, and the Bank. The decision of the Bank to throw its influ ence and its means into the political arena, will be probably fatal to that institution. It must sink or swim with Henry Clay it is their own choice. A correspondent from Washington, writes us on the 11th inst. "Mr. Clay has been giving us to day an outline of his ffreat American Svstem in nthor words, of the most aristocratic and unjust system of government, that a statesman ever dared to advocate iu a free country boasting of its equality and liber ty but you will see it in all its formidable dimen sions. You can readily perceive the momentous character of the questions to be discussed at this ses sion, and the magnitude of the interests involved in the approaching contest for the Presidency." It is not a time for Republicans to be idle in any part ofthe Union; when the question is, whether our government was instituted for the benefit ofthe peo ple, or whether our legislation is to be controled by a lew hundred large capitalists, some of whom are now occupying- seats of both Houses of Congress. The "coil of the adder" is now unwinding. Mr. Clay has now shown his views. Tho duties are on ly to be reduced seven millions! And he savs 18 mil lions are to be raised for the expenses of the govern- ineiu: ivnn mese eigmeen to he exclusively raised on the protected articles I And this he represents (in his Wednesday's speech) to be a ground of com promise on which all Darties mav unite! TnrW.-l f n line system of expenditure, and a notable scheme of compromise : " The period fsavs Mr. Havne.'who rn?e on M Clay's taking his seat) so long and anxiously looked lur uuu uesireu, nau at length arrived. The public debt was paid ; for so gentlemen on all sides had agreed to consider kp and, the question necessarily arose, what adjustment of the "tariff of duties was to be made in this new and most gratifying condition of our affairs ? Upwards of twelve millions of dollars per annum, nearly one half of the entire amount of the public debt, will (when the debt is paid) cease to be a charge upon the country, and to this extent at least, the people have a right to expect an immediate reduction of their burdens. But what does the reso lution now belore us propose? that duties to the amount ot only six or seven millions should ho tnlron oil, and that the reduction should he evrlnsivAltr fined to articles which do not enter into competition withsimilar articles produced athome in other words, Sir, that articles of universal consumption, and, in re lation to which, every class ofthe people, and every portion of the country, contribute equally, should be relieved entirely from all taxation, while the high duties on the protected article touched in a word, that the hands of that mammoth ey stem oi injustice and oppression, he meant no offenee but he spoke as he felt, were to remain nnrelal a system which was felt and acknowledged in one 4uailcl "3 cuuiiiry as a noon and a bounty, and in another, as an insuDDortaale hnrdn n avetom -whih (if in the language of the Senator of Kentucky) it had "scattered its rich fruits" over any portion ofthe land. Had visited others wish its consumiuo- curses. " " v-..u, mu.1 tuc n uc 4ucisliuu nere presented was, whether the protecting system was to be wholiV nntonrhpd nrA n k-. i il cannot De aenied, thai the true question here be wholly untouched. country beyond all hope of relief ? and, in this aspect of the question, he must solemnly declare, that he con- C1UC,LU " aauiicivoiviug me prosperity, and, he could say pregnant with the future destinies of this coun try; for, however this system may have operated else where, it was the deep and settled conviction of those whom he represented, that it had acted upon them as a blight and a pestilence, blasting the fairest fields on which the eye of man had ever rested.: Was it pos sible for gentlemen to suppose that we should meet on ground which involved no concession whatever to our views, but which proposed to maintain the pro tecting system in all its unmitigated rigor, thus ag gravating instead of diminishing the inequality and injustice of which we so strongly and so justly com plained? The gentleman had, indeed, said that the propriety of some reduction might, perhaps, hereafter be considered ; not now, however, when the debt was about to be paid, and the tariff re-adjusted and fixed on a permanent basis, but at some future and 'more convenient season.' But what hope is to be built on this declaration, when the gentleman in the very same breath tells us that no considerable r! sudden reduc tion could ever take place. No, that would be destruc tion ; and as to the gradual and moderate reduction recommended by the Secretary of the -Treasury, that would be even worse than the other it would, said the gentleman, be a slow and sure poison, leading to inevitable destruction. It follows, then, clearly, that we are to have no reduction of the protecting duties whatever, either now, or at any future period. In this view ofthe question, he must repeat, he consider ed it the most awfully momentous sujbject that had ever Jbeen presented in the course of tile history of this government, and believinor that it rennired the rrreat- est deliberation, he wished the attention the Senate L 1.

The National Intelligencer is pleased to say, that we have "answered promptly and politely" and wished " it had been also to the purpose." It says besides, that we have " blinked the question." But how could we have friven a more exnlicit answer? r-J r z " A gentleman asks us, will the President sign the Bank-Bill what can we say ? We are not the keep ers of his conscience. He has never written us what he would do. He has never told us. We referred to his Messages for the best exponents of his opinions. We do not hesitate to say, as our own conclusions from these official papers, from what we have heard and from what we have seen in letters from Wash ington : renorts of conversations. &.c. from the rreneral i i 7 j es firmness of his character, &c. &c, that he will not sirni the Bank-Bill now messed uron Conrress. it . j j- - , seems, by the President of the Bank.
