the citizens of Richmond county.
uemlemek: I Lave received from
you, as the organ of a meeting jot the cit
izens of Richmond County, a communi
cation accompanied by their resolutions,
in which a request is made to know my
Sentiments iu regard to Nullification.'
This shall be promptly done. But' I
owe it to a sense of self-respect, as well
as of candor, to you, to state, that in the
tace of your third resolution, containing a
threat to vote against any candidate who
advocates that doctrine, I should certain
ly have declined a compliance with the
wishes of your meeting, but for a consid
eration much higher than that of appea
ling a political denunciation, or essaying
iu cuaciiiaie a aououui tavor. l It car
ries no terrors to me. But the, crisis has
arrived when every man should speak
out boldly, and whatever may be the
consequences to himself, to meet them
like a man, and endeavor to save if pbs-
siuiej me consiuuiion oi nis country. To
tnis end it: nas been my wish to address
the people ol (jreorgui, as well for the
purpose ot arousing them to a proper
sense of their wrongs. as; to HisahnU
their minds of a caretully lodged! preTu-
dice mteuuedto impair that hold on their
aflectious, which 1 had fondlr hnnd ha!
been well earned ou my part" Your ad
dress has furnished that opportunity.
As your meeting, doubtless, in a spirit of
what it conceived to be its rights, has
subjected me to a political catechism,
under a menace, will it be offended, if I,
in my torn without such rigour,! seek to
know wnat are their sentiments! m re
gard' to Mr. Jefferson , as a statesman?
lie has merited, and justly, received, the
title of an Apostle of Freedom.' He lis
the great orucle ,.of southern politics.
In his opinions every statesman is safe
who has the true and proper veneration
lor civil liberty. Will any thing he has
said be good authority with your mee
ting! It bo, then mark his own - words,
uttered in opposition to the I Sedition
Law, one, not more unconstitutional
than the tariff act. 'When (sid this great

would be under the dominion, ; absolute
and unlimited, of wh'omsoever.might ex
ercise this right ot judgment for them.
tHere, theu, you have my opinion in

Whenever his doctrines cease to be
considered orthodox, by the southern

'that the ultimate arbiter ii the people, uc

i am, therefore, brought to the conclu
sion, that the Legislature of the states
cannot, but that the people of each state,
acting by their deputies in convention,
must, in j'all cases which are of sufficient
magnitude to justify their interposition,"
determine upon the proper mode, and
measure of redress, for every violation of
tho constitution. And I cannot believe,
with thejmeetmg in Augusta, "it would
be "extremely dangerous" at any time for
the people to elect delegates to meet in

very easily, we think; but, even if they
could, Pennsylvania would uot undertake
this crusade alone. ;She. would want

found constitutional authority sufficicLt
to satisfy them, during the last war with
England, that the rederal Government
had no-power to order the militia beyond
ihe limits of the State, to repel the inva
sion of a foreign enemy; Jand surely they
would pot risk their fair lame before all
the wprld.. by marching against their
brethren, for exercising the same right
of strictly construing the Constitution.
which they on that occasion displayed.
upon the whole there are difficulties in
the way proceeding in such a buaiYie?.
which are not ea--ily to be surmounted,
and we would, therefore, recommend tho
Consolidation 'Party to look well- be for h-
they leap.- One lalse step may 'place af-
iairs in such a posture as to render a re
trograde .movement impossible. That
man must have lived to little purpose u ho
does not perceive that a Confederation.
of. States can only be held together by
the ties of friendship, and mutual inter
est. . An union founded on force is an iai
possible thing on this side ot the Atlan
tic. To be sure, such a little tate as
aware might be swallowed up at a break
fast, by her overgrown neighbors;, but, so
long as great iuterests are common to ;i
number of contiguous States', it reeJ
never to be expected that they will per
mit themselves to be kept down as s u.o
oies or -vassals.. It is prepostejc u- fo
think of it. ' The grand ; preservative
principle of our Uninn was tho veueraliors
with which it has been so long regarded.
It is too palpable to be. denied, that that
veneration has, of late years, been great
ly lessoned all through the .Southern
country; and wo are fully oi opinion that
nothing can restorjt but a return of tbe
Government to the plain and manifest im
port of the Constitution, which guaran
ties to every citizen the freedom of e;n
ployiient, as much as it does the freedom
of speech..
From the Batnner'of the Constitution '
i .
, The Coercive Pozser of the Federal Gov
ernment.-' The extreme ignorance which
prevails, S or th otthe Potomac, in refer
ence to the principles of our Constilu-
lion, is snowu m noining more palpably
than in the common conversations of the
day," which relate to the course ivhicb the
Executive Government could pursue, in
tulhlment of that injunction which de
clares that the President "shall. take care
that thelaws be faithfully executed," in
case. fccnih Carolina should pronounce
the Protective Tariff Laws null and void
wunin ner limits. i nere are some peo
ple who1 suppose j that the President
could soud an army or navy against that
btate, upon his own responsibility, or call
out the jnililia,. wuhout the authority of
Congress. But ,'et us hear, what the
Constitution says on this subject
"Congress shall have power To pro
vide for the calling forth the militia to ex
ecute jhe lazas of. the Union, suppress in
surrections, and repel invasions.
Here it is manifest that Coneress alone
nas power to provide for calling forth the
militia to execute.the laws of the Union;
and that, consequently, the President
could not move . in the matter, without
the .authority of that body. . It would
eem, also, that.no species of military
force could be. employed, to execute the.
laws, butj that.of the militia.. . . : :
In theiConvention wnich formed the
Constitution, Mr. Patterson. qC New Jer
sey, .offered, on the 15th June 1787, a set
of propositions as to the formation and
powers of the new Government, amongst
which was one in the following words:
"And if any State, or anv body of men
hin any State, shall oppose or prevent the
carrving into execution such acts or trea

"That this assembly,'' (the Virginia
Legislature,) Vdoth explicitly- declare,
that it views the powers of the Federal
Government as resulting from the com
pact to which the states are. parties,! as
limited by the plain sense and intention
pi. the instrument constituting ther com

"That the States are the parties to the
constitutional compact iu teir sovereign
capacity, and of necessity, thdt there can
be nq tribunal above thcir authority, and
cop:-equeut!y that as the parties to it,
they must themselves decide, in the last

cient magnitude to justify their interpo
sition.

I believe, therefore, that the
Supreme
may be necessary to enforce and compel
an obedience to such acts, or an observ
ance of such treaties."
These propositions were referred, on
the same day, to a Committee of the
Whole, the Chairman of which, on the
I9th of June, reported V
That the Committee, having spent
some time in the consideration of the pro
positions submitted to the House by. the
Hon. Mr: Patterson, and of .the resolu
tions heretofore reported from a Com
mittee ofj the W hole House, both of
which had been to them referred, .were
prepared to report thereon, and had di
rected him to report to. the House, that
the Committee do not agree. to the pro
positions offered by the Hon. Mr,. Pat
terson; and that they again : submit tbe
resolutions formerly reported to the con
sideration of the House. . ..
Amongst the resolutions thus reported,
there was none recommending the em
ployment of force to carry into;cxecu
tion the laws of the Federal Government;
nor does there appear, in the Constitu
tion, any Yeference whatever to any oth
er military power than that of the' militia.
, Let us now suppose the case of a call
ing out the militia to execute the laws in
South Carolina. By the Constitution it
is declared that to the States respective
ly is reserved the right of "the appoint
ment of officers." JVbw if tbe mititia of
South Carolina should be ordered out,
it is clear that they would not obey.
We think it equajly.clear that the same
result would happ'en if the militia was,

. The following pre?.mhle and reso
lutions were presented and unanimous
My adopted, at a very large and res- .
pectable meeting of the of Kershaw
District, held at, Camden, S. C. oa
the 29th ultimo.
The Preulential election is at all timj
a matter of importance arid interests
the free people of this State, and "as tha'-
election is near ai nana, and as oauv o
the friends of State Rights and roi ri:
tutional liberty, have taken no part I
canvass, being unwilling, ta erab.rr ;
the holy cause in which they believe;:
their liberties were involved, and as they
think this a fit and proper time to ex
press their sentiments fully and indepen
dently, Be it therefore Resolved, That this
meeting will support Andrew Jackson, of
Tennessee for President as the most re
publican candidate presented to the it
choice.
Be it further Resolved, That this mee
ting, acting on the same principle, will
support. Philip Pendleton Barbour, of
Virginia, for Vice President,- whom
we consider as entirely identified with us
in principles, interests and feelings, pure
ly southern. . '
And be it further Resolved, That in no
event and under, no circumstances, wilt
the people of this meeting support Hen
ry Clay as President, Martin Van .Bursa,"
John Sergeant, or Wm. Wilkins, as Vice
President, each of whom is to be found
only in the ranks of our oppressors, and i
identified with that unholy system. of le
gislation, which reduces our State to the
condition of a province, and makes our.
people tributary to their fellow-citizens of"
the North and" West.
Phrenology. A banker. lately deceas
ed in Edinburgh, has left the most of his
fortune to.be applied to the science or
doctrine of phrenology, under the impres
sion in his will, that no great change can
be effected in the moral condition of
mankind, until the ; principles of tho
science ajo understood throughout the
world.
