" The fatal rock upMiwhi-h the liberties of the American Peo ple are t b ' lathed to pieces, is the abandon- - 1 m iiipfit f principles in a blind devotion to men. Witfiin the last twenty years, all parties have bft'ii guilty of this political Sin; and, unless its onward course be arrested at (his awful crisis ofo-ir country's fate, all will Ije lost. The disc ontinuance on the fast day of De cemfKT, of. "the Banner of the Constitution," published weekly for three years, under the edirmal charge of the subscriber, has left the cau-e of State Rights without a paper at the North, through which the great political ques tions which now agitate the land, can be dis rated uninfluenced by personal or party con siderations. The unexampled unanimity which ha recently been proclaimed throughout the Millie and Northern States in favor of a con 0:)Il!atcd government, has cast a deep gloom uVTthe minds f the c onsistent few who re miin true to iho Republican faith o'98; and any it:e'iipt to effect, in that region, such are riiution as -vas accomplished by bringing into poivvr Ir Jefferson and his principles, see ii to b -i.s h peless as despair itself.

I PROPOSALS for publishing by Subscrip tion, a New and elegant Universal Atlas, to contain distinct Maps of all the Principal Kingdoms and States in the known World, and separate Maps of each of the United States, by H. 8. TANNER, Author of a New American Atlas, Map of the United States, &c, fcc. Although numerous collections of Maps have been published in this country, but few have yet been complet d on a scale and plan calcu lated to convey an adequate idea of the whole subject, or to do justice to the improved state of Geographical science in the United States. M st of those heretofere offered for public ap probation have been only the first essays of this kind, and principally designed for the use rf schools, or to illustrate geographical works, while these published in Europe are extremeh defective and incorrectas respects the United States, the geography of which is so rapidly progressive that no European publication can keep pace with its advancement. This part of the work must be brought to maturity in our country, and such is now the respectable stale of the Arts here, that we can assert with confi dence that we possess the materials and skill sufficient to exibit a topographical representa tion of the United istates, indefinitely superior, 1 as it regards correctness and detail, and every way e.jual in style, to any European publica '.ion ti the kind. The publisher of the proposed work has been collecting materials, prepaiatory to the exe ution of it, for everal years, in which he his beeen assisted by some of the ablest geo graphers in this country and in Europe. In a Idition to this, he will avail himself of all the recent and important discoveiies iii both hem ispheres, to enable him to execute the proposed Atlas in a manner every way satisfactory to the public. The materials for the maps which relate to the eastern continents, will be selected from the latest and best European authorities, and ex'bita complete view of the. world in connec tion with the United States. The State maps will be engraved from drawings compiled, as far as practicable, from original documents, on a scale sufficiently large to admit of an accurate representation of countries, with their subdivi sions, the seas, lakes, rivers, and mountains, the counties, cities, towns and villages, and all the principal roads, internal improvements, &c. The work will be completed as soon as cir cumstances will pe'rmit, consistently with accu racy and elegance of execution ; and from the measures that have been adopted to pro- cure the necessary information, no material delay is apprehended. It was originally intended by the publishar, and proposals issued accordingly, to restrict the size of each map to an imperial quarto. It has since, however, been found that the limits of such a sheet were entirely too small to admit the introduction ol all the recent information which the author desired to incorporate with the proposed work ; he has therefore determined to augment greatly the size of the maps, and to publish this work in monthly numbers. The maps as now proposed, will be nearly louble the size of those contemplated in the original prospectus. Though the maps be in creased in size, the cost of the entire work will not much exceed the price of the Atlas as first proposed, as the whole may be comprised in about fourteen numbers. In the execution of such an extensive plan, very great expense must be incurred, but the utility of a work of this description being evi dent, the publisher haslehtered on the task with alacrity, relying with full confidence on the importance and merits of the work to insure the patronage necessary to its completion. Having thus briefly delineated the plan of the work, the publisher offers it to the public on the following CONDITIONS : I. The proposed Atlas shall be constructed from the latest and most authentic documents. It will be engraved in the first style of map engraving, and in every branch of its execu tion, accuracy of detail shall be aimed at. Each sheet will be 11 by 14 inches. II. The maps will be printed on the first quality venum paper, and colored in an elegant ana appropriate manner.. 111. lhe Atlas consists of about fourteen numbers, with an engraved title sheet. It will be delivered to subscribers at 81 for each num ber, containing at least four maps, payable on delivery. io non-subscribers the price will oe ti ou a nuraocr, each of which will be com plete in itself.

Having understood that persons in this part of the State frequently procure vines from the North, and believing that a preference is due to those cultivated here, I have thought it ad viseable to give notice that I can spare a large quantity of Cuttings at three dollars per hun dred, put up in boxes. They consist of more than twenty different kinds; among which are the following : Catawba, Isabella, Constantia, or Cape of Good Hope Grape, Bland, Madeira, Schuyl kill, Muscadell, Scarlet Perfume, Garden grape, Noble, Thick Blue, Scuppernong, and I several other kinds, both native and foreign, j The time of planting being near at hand, or ders for the quantities and kinds wanted, should be furnished in the course of the ensuing month. The process ofiplanting and of culti vation, and the advantages of vineyards, have become so generally known, that I deem it un necessary to add any thing respecting them. WILLIAM P. BIDDLE.

BROWN, OF N. C. concluded. Mr. BROWN, in continuation of the soeerb. of -which the main nart was ruhlishfd in nnr last, said As he had stated his objections to me course which the honorable Judiciary Com- imiiee naa auvised or recommended to the Se nate to adopt, and deeming it not calculated, as hon. gentlemen had observed, to preserve tne Union, but on the contrary, calculated, if , rr. u imT practical operation, to destroy this I - . . . . ' . 8lu,lous union, u was proper that he should state what he thought would best meet the pre ocin lata, coiisiuerea tne true remedy a peaceful remedy that of conciliation accor ding alike with the genius of the Constitution and the practice of the Government. The re venue should be reduced to the wants 'of the Government; and the oppression which the Southern people labored under in consequence of the tariff system, ought to be removed. If gentlemen wished to preserve the Union, the country should be appeased. This appeared to him to be an infallible remedy. The one, how ever, which the Committee had prescribed, might be fraught with some danger. He was aware that there was a set of politicians, who thought this the favorable moment to try the strength of the Union, and that Government ought not to concede one particle of the pro tective system. Can it be posssible, at this day, (said Mr. B.) that any individual would wish to jeopardize the peace and harmony of twelve or thirteen millions of people not only the peace of a whole people, but to retard the progress of free governments throughout the world, by an experiment of that kind? To try the strength of the Union, and whether it can survive the use of the military power? He hoped not. He trusted that our Republic would be hazard ed by no such speculative experiment. It is argued, continued Mr. B., that the State of South Carolina having placed herself in this attitude of defence, Congress ought not to le gislate on the subject, as had been said in some of tfje newspapers, while the sword is brandish ing over our heads. This is not meeting the question, it is not the true question it is a ques tion of a very different character. Are the peo ple of South Carolina alone concerned in this matter? Is not a vast portion of the American people concerned in it? Are not the whole of the southern States interested in this subject: It is not onls the southern States, but the State of New Hampshire, the State of Maine, and a portion of the people of New York; but a large and respectable number of the. States in the south west, which consider the tariff system unjust and repugnant tj the principles of the Constitution, and that we have no right to keep it up. Il is agreed that justice should not he done to South Carolina, because she has assu- men a menacng attitude. This is not a proper view, it is not just to the other fetates. ls it any reason, because South Carolina has acted imprudently, ithat she should not receive jus tice? If she " has forfeited any claim to the consideration of the Gene.al Government, ought the other citates to incur the forfeiture? Nothing can be more erroneous nothing more absurd nothing, I will say, more tyrannical, than to oppress all the southern States, because South Carolina has acted rashly. I do not, said Mr. B., argue this question as a southern queston. Thank God, in the exercise of my legislative rights and duties here, I can look be yondJthe Potomac. Thank God, I have a feed ing which is not confined to the geographical limits of auy portion of the United States. I can look and judge of my countrymen north as well as south of the Potomac; and I wish it to be distinctly understood, that what I now say respecting South Carolina, I deem ap plicable to every member of this confederacy. To no one of these States would I arrogantly say I will not do justice, until you come on your knees before me. I do hoDe if I have any patriotism, it is not A r that narrow, contracted patriotism which is con fined to geographical limits. I trust, it is that patriotism which looks abroad over the Union, and embraces every portion of my fellow citi zens. And so help me God, if my constituents were this day to demand that I should per trate an act of injustice against any member of this Confederacy that I should do an act in be half of North Carolina which would trench upon the rights of Maine or of Massachusetts, or Pennsylvania, which I believed destructive of their constitutional rights, so help me trod would resign my seat and retire to my home, rather than jeopard the peace of this Republic this glorious experiment of a free irovern ment- by taking what justly belongs to Maine, and unjustly to bestow it on North Carolina, believing that a man presents a more truly dig nified attitude who refuses to do an unjust act than he who perseveers in injustice. But what are we now called upon to do? We are called upon imminently to jeopard the pub lie peace, by a novel and dangerous experiment to enforce a law which not only a large por tion of the American people believe .unconsti tutional, but which 1 verily believe, if the ques tion were submitted to their individual opinion , this d th wouid repudiae and require to . re:Rrtefi .

The remedy for evils of the greatest magnitude, should be sought for in the peaceful tribunals this country, according to the great princi ples handed down to us by the English Whigs, anu which We have infused into the spirit of If Z Tn and government found re of a11 lhese means, it shall be thatth 1 annot prepared to say -before the peace to tur bed, here ought to be a reference to the jus tice, to the wisdom" of CongreSS-to weigh, to examine the provisions of thatlaw, and solemn, ly to pause and reflect, before proceeding to put it in force by military power. I beg leave, said Mr. B., to advert to what the President of the United States has said in his message to Congress, and I do it because this is the first remedy which the President re commended to Congress, at the opening of the present session. I cannot doubt, that if the Executive wishes w'tre consulted, he would and decidedly, give the preference to a peaceful settlement of the difficulties by Congress. I do not mean to say that his preference should intluence our legislation, but it ought to have weight with us. Speaking of the extinguishment of the public debt, the President goes on to remaik; "The final removal of this great burthen from our resources, affords the means of further pro vision for all the objects of general welfare and public defence, which the Constitution author izes, ind presents the occasion for such further reduction in the revenue as may not be required for them. From the report of the Secretary ot the Treasury, it will be seen that, after the present year, such a reduction may be made to a considerable1 extent; and the subject is ear nestly recommended to the consideration of Congress, in the hope that the combined wis dom of the representatives of the people will dev ise such means of effecting that salutary ob ject, as may remove those burthens which shall be found to fall unequally upon any, and as may promote all the great interests of the com munity." Again, in another part of the message, the President remarks: "That manufactures, adequate to the supply of our domestic consumption, would, in theab stract, be beneficial to our country, there is no reason to doubt ; and, to.effecl their establish ment, there is perhaps no American citizen who would not for a while be willing to pay a higher price for them. But, for this purpose, it is presumed that a tariff of high duties, de signed for perpetual protection, has entered into the iiiinds of but few of onr statesmen. The most they have anticipated is a temporary and generally incidental protection, which they maintain has the effect to reduce the price of domestic competition below that of the foreigu. article. Experience, however, our best guide )ii this as on other subjects, makes it doubtful whether the advantages of this system are not counterbalanced by many evils, and whether it .o"es not tend to beget, in the minds of a large. portion of our countrymen, a spirit of discon tent and jealousy, dangerous to the stability ol the Union." These are the sentiments of the President regarding the law which we arc now called on to adapt extraordinary means of carrying it in to execution. As I consider this is a mo&t important point. as I considerjit the true means of removing the difficulty now involved in this question, I have not only adverted to the annual message of the President as showing the views of the admin istration, and their remedy for the difficulties in the south, but 1 would now beg leave to read fiom the annual report of the Secretary of the . Treasury. Here Mr. Brown read an extract from the anuual report of the Secretary of the Treasu ry on the subject, of the reduction of the du ties. Thus we have the direct suggestion of the present administration, that this is the mostap propriate remedy. It is the one which was first suggested at the opening of the session, and, I believe n is calculated to achieve all the great objects so much to be desired, all which it is necessary to achieve, and that without endang ering the republic. What is the extraordinary spectacle, I woulti remark, which the American republic now ex- Lhibitstothe world? A republic which has here tofore boasted of its freedom a republic wlucn has heretofore pursued the "even and peaceful tenor of its way" a republic which had been found competent to all the legitimate purposes of government without slaughtering its citizens, and which with very few exceptions, has gone on nearpfnllv for fiftV years. picscuv inordinary spectacle of calling on theadmin- , istration and the executive vernment to enforce a law againt portion ot ourfTllow citizens tocompel them to contribute so much money to the revenue, which it is ac knowledged is six millionsnnually more than, Ts reauisfte for the wants of the General Go vernment. A removal of that burden would re move all diflSculty with the State of South Car olina. Even a partial removal of it a mitiga tion of it, would make the tariff system more acceptable to the people, without a total aban donment of the principles; I speak in reference to the views and prevailing sentiments of that portion of the people I represent. Sir, it does appear to me a powerful consid eration that we are almost on the eye of a civil war ; and for what ? to enforce a law for the col lection of revenue, when it is admitted by the Secretary of the Treasury that there are at present six millions of dollars more than is want ed for thecommon purposes of the Govern ment. Is this calculated to elevate us in uc eyes of the nations of Europe? Is this ted to cheer the hopes of those people 'jaat been long eelttxfen mc to say that I thii it viJJ som J
