V i GOODMAN NEVILL. July Uih IQ22. 13 3t CONSTITUTIONAL LIBERTY; rOR.TSUE' li0.N0KE ADVOCATE. Mr. Freeman: Yourorrcspondent 'A has again occupied your columns with an article explanatory of "sweet" Van Bu ret's Albany speech;; but how - far his clumsy explanation has succeeded in rec onciling your readers with his (Van Bti YenV) sent iments on t he Tariff, I will leave for ihein to determine, j As for myserf, if I haye misunderstood the true-meaning of that speech, (f do not think I have)jl hope I have not failed to arrive at the correct meaning cf the language of your correspondent. Although 1 condemn the cause which he has' espoused, I admire the frankness and candour, with which lie lias avowed himself the ' advocate of "sweet" Van Buren and his' principles. He has now taken his stand with some degree of consistency, and if he can by a fair and honest exposition of facts, palm "sweet? Martin' and his principles upon the South, I, for one, will not murmur, He has taken 1 tie stand which every Van Buren man must take, for it is vain and idle in the-extreme to talk of supporting a man and at the same time condemn his principles. How can" we support an in dividnal except for party or selfish pur pose in whom we can not recognise a sin gle feeling or principle congenial vith our own'? No sir, the idea" is too ;pi posteous to deserve seridus attention "birds of a feather flock together."- J It may be proper here, for me to re mark, that in the spring of 1 827 Mr. Van Buren took a tour thrqugh. the Southern States, and very soon after his return to New York, a meetii'tr oftho woo! orntv- . . OIer? w.is hr.ld in Alhanv atwhich Air. r; U dchvered a speeca; ot about an liour'isi icnth. In that speech he took ocrasidh to expatiate upon the withering and ru inous condition of the South and upon the superior prosperity ol his own Stale: He uses thefollovvtng language, which I suppose is too plain to require a ' loucL1 .from the elucidating peri of your corres' pondent "A." "lie put it to the knowl edge and observaliou of e very man .vh0 heard him, whether there was any thing snore certain than there is no . not an 1 i.r. o A f l than the State of New-York. If there was a citizen of tho State who doubted it, let him travel, and hq would be con vinced of his error; ; and if he can desire to witness a picture of the reverse (that is the reverse of prosperity and happiness) let him i pass throvh the Southern States, and'ifhe did not iurn satisfied with the superior prosperity of his own state, lie V. B. would acknowledge his incapacity to judge in this matter." Here, then, 4s the language of Mr. Van Buren, on the 10th of July 18c27. W hat was his con duct in the Senate in '2S1 Did he extend the arm of relief to an injured and rumed Stiuthl No, Did he throw the weight of tiis power and influence on the sitle of th South to stay the iron hand of oppression JNo. ' W hat did he do? He united will) the . .Tariff party and frt'eu and sealed upon us with a new stamp', the very evils which had been "sucking our very heart's hlood" thereby "heapf ing up wrath against the day of wrath." But your correspondent says he (Van Buren) was instructed to do so. Admit ting then that he was instructed; Mr: Van Buren had been an eye-witness to our wretched condition and if he had been actuated by a spirit of justice and humanity, he would have resigned his seat and left' the execution of the deed to a mbre'calious and unfeeling heart. Thisj then, is the individual 'whom we, the victims of his avaricous disposition, are called upon to elevate to one of the most honoured and distinguished offices withm our gift. Mr' Vran Buren id speaking of inc sunject oi protection says, "upon the general subject, -the sentiment of the Stale now is and long has been, in accor dance tvith the acts of the government." He represented the people of Nciv York in the Senate, and it is hardly to be pre sumed that they would have selected him if his sentiments did not accord with theirs, consequently they must have been in "accordance with the acts of the gov ernment;" and if they were, he cannot be looked upon in aoy other light than going the fdll length wttb the tariff party for the principles of protection.! Yoitr cor respondent says -"Does a subscriber wish to ruin and annihilate - manufactures 4c." To this 1 would say, itls far from being ray wish to "ruin and annihilate" manufactures, neither do uesire the man ufactures to "ruin and annihilate" South ern labourers. Again. "Because Mr. Van Buren is a farmer and raises sheep, and corn, fodder and' hay to feed them in the winter, by working bis farms I can not perceive- heJ is injuring the country. Who has complained merely because Mr. Van Buren raises sheep and corn;.fodder aai hay to feed them in the winter! Wo do not complain of t h a t , neit her do w e say that he is,bysimply working his firms final with he decision of that department, injuring the 'country. AVe complain that ( But the proper answer to - these- objec he has greatly aided in tho enactment of ' tions is that the resolution of the Gener- - I laws, distressingly, burtliensome to the boutberu peoplo tor the protection of "Mm wool and for the portection of Northern f manufactures We complain that he had been an eye witness to the ruinous effects of those laws, and had refused to extendi to us the arm of relief. - In relation to t he bill i which -has been lately adopted by Congress and which your correspondent says effects'a reduction in the revenue of 8 or 10 millions f dollars, I will quote the opinion of Gen. ,Hayne. 1 He said 'he nad examined its . provisions careful ly, j He Was perfectly satisfied that it did not propose to effect a reduction in the revenue of more than three or xfour mill ions of dollars and of this nearly the whole amouui was .on unproieciea articles. Bo far, it aggravated the injustice and ine quality of which the South had so loudly complained." Our worthy and patriotic Senator, Mr. RIangum. says, "it is a bill, the effects of which would amount to a robbery if not sahctidued by legal forms, and declared that if he conld give it his sanction, directly or indirectly, he should consider himself as falsifying all the prin ciples on 'which he had acted through life." .Her0 then is .the bill which has been given us by the friends of MrV Van Buren and which is held out as a boon to draw us into his. service. But it is also said, we must support him in order to unite and sustain the Jacksou .and Republican parties. Pray sir, how long has Van Bu ren been the ' cement .of those partjes? U'atie uniting and sustaining the repub lican party when he was acting with Mr. iCiintuii against Mr. Madisou? Where was he' when Gen. Jaekssn was first brought forward?. Where was your cor respondent A. ami the balance of these good Van Buren men? Were they' not airing all their power and influence to blow i.ey not instrumental in l"he circulation of Jesse Benton's scurrilous letter? And these very individuals claim to be the ex clusive guardians faf the Jackson party. The South cannot, she will not support "sweet" Martin Van Buren. y I ; :. A SUBSCRIBEfe. ; For the Roanoke Advocate. NULLIFICATION NO. 2.- It v. ould seem . i; e essary to multiply authorites to shew that the parties to the compact are the sole and rightful judges 01 the meaning of . that compact It is a proposition which must strike the plainest understanding as r self-evident and axiomatic. It must ever be born in mind that the Government of the Uni ted States is one of limited, powers,! ex presly denned by the Constitution that the powers granted are definite and spe cific and all ot her j owtrs not expressly delegated are reserved to the States and to the People. The General Govcrn nm is a joint agency appointed by the States, the measure of whose pow er is the Constitution. It is not a par ty to the compact, but a creature of it.; It is in all respects subordinate and infe rior to the States. By their voice was it. (the General Government) called into existence, by their voice can it be alter ed or 'annulled. Each individual State can righfully put her veto upon the unauthorised act of any department of the Government, whether it be a corrupt Legislatgre, Executive or Judiciary. A State can say to each,, or all combined, "keep thy distance due" "thus ., far shait thou go and no farther." : But the ener.iies of State interposition-oppose the principle of Nullification, and yet hold the opinion that the Judiciary can pro nounce on the constitutionality of the laws, and either sanction them or declare them "null and of no effect." They would trive the Judges the power- of judging of the Constitution, and vet the exercise of a similar right on the , part of a sovereign State they repudiate . as a "damnable hersey." V j In a former commufwation I quofed the opinion of Chief Justice Marshall to prove that the Judicial power should not be regarded as the expositor of the Con stitution. To this I might also add the authority of Thomas. Jefferson and James Madison as contained in the1 celebrated Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions, and the opinions of many of the ablest jurists and statesmen of oar "country. ': Mr Madison in bis report on the Vir ginia Resolutions says, "It has been ob jected (to'the exercise of State interpo sition) that the Judicial authority is to be regarded . as the sole expositor of the Constitotionr on this subject it .might be observed, first, there may be instances of usurped powers which the forms of the Constitution could never draw" within the control of the Judicial department; secondly, that if the decisions of the Ju diciary be raised above the sovereign par ties to the Constitution, the decisions : of other departments, not carried by" the forms of tho Constiution before the Judi ciary, must be eqcallf authoritative and al 4icaibly relates to those great and .' extraordinary cases, ia which !! tho . fornis of the Constitution may prove ia ellectUal against infractions dangerous to the essential rights of the parties to it. . The reolation supposes - that dangerous power?, not 'delegated, may not only be usurped and exercised by other depart '! ruents but that ,tho J udicial depart- ! ment may. also exercise or sanction dan j gerous: powers bey oud the '-rant of the J Cousuf utiooi aiidj consequently that the ultimate right,of the parties to the Con stituiion to judge whether the compact u ueen aaugtrously Violated, muat ex tend tu violations by one delegated au- thorityjaswell as hy another hy the Ju diciary as well as by the Executive or. legisiative." But the Consolid.ti would not only , elevate the Judicbry a hove (he other departments of 1 he . . n- era! Government tut above the Constii tution itself. . - , We have also the words of Afri JefI FERSOK Boston Iu a letter to a gentleman' of he says, "you seem to consider ges aVthe ultimate arbiters of ail the Jud costitutional quebtions; a very dangerous doctrine iudced ..and one which would place ds under the despotism of aricli gachyJ Our Judges are as honest as other men.

"There; is no provision in the Coustitu lion 01 uie united estates that in such a case (a -collision between the States and Federaj Governments) the Judges of thd Supreme Court of, the United States shall control aud b conclusive neither can Congress by a iaw (couler that pow. er. Judge Roaw, of Virginia, in commen ting on this decision, says, "It h the. so lemn and unanimous decision and reso iution ojf the Supreme Court of one of thd most respectable States of the Union; It contains no principle .'. which every friend to the federative sy&tem of Govi ernment will not readily subscribe tor it exhibits no sentiment alarming to' any but thej friends of consolidation" A ''1 I will conclude the present article with the opinions. of Mr. Calhouw in relatiQtj to the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court; In his lajte address, he says, "I will yfeld, I trust.tofew in my attachment to the Ju diciary department. I am fully sensible of its importance and would maintain it in the fullest extent in its constitutional powers andi udependence: but iris impos sible for; me to believe that it was evct intended by the Constitution that, il should evei exercise the power in cues lion, or that if is competent to do so, and if it were, that it would be a safe deposi tory of the power. Its powers are judi cial and! not political, and are expressly confined by the Constitution to 'all cases in law abd equity arisiog under the Con stitution; the laws of the United States and the treaties made, or which shall be made upder its authority, and which, 1 have high authority in stating, excludes political questions, and comprehends1 those only where there are parties ame nable to the process of the Court. Nof is this incompetency -less clear, than Us want of constitutional authority. Theri may be many, and the most dans er on s in fractions oil the part of Congress, of which 11 is conceuea oy au, me coun as ajuaictal trihunalannot from its nature take'eogni' zance." AA. -' , -, I might add to the authorities already 3 noted, fhose of Judge Tilghman, GenV Acxsoni Gov. Giles. Hamiltok, Hayke Troup, Van BuaEft and McDuffie, and others equally distinguished to shew thai the Supreme Court is not the final arbit er or the sole expositor of the Constitu' tlOO. -j -;: .... ;- - :' .-; - In my next I shall prove to thd safis faction of all unprejudiced minds that nullification or State interposition Js not ' only a rightful remedy, but also a peace able one j and that a recognition of the principle-so far from weakening will give strength to the Union ;As Nullifiers, we are neither agitators or disunionists: We claim nothing which the Constitution does not guaranteed fn the language of the patriot Foy, we are for "the Chartef the whole Charter, and nothing but thd Charter." fr; : ; - SIDNEY .
