Mr. Calhoun denouncing Gen. Jakin"B
and extllin; Mr. Tjler'aveU of Na

In hia speech reported in the Register
of Debate a. vol. X. p. 1 6tS, he aaid :
lie (Gen. Jackaon) haa pronounced the
"United State Bank t be hmhhwiTiuiiI,
and ha, of courr, impeached the conduct
if Washington and Mattiaon, ('he former
of whom aigned the charter of the first bank,
and the latter of ihe present.) and all the
me miter i of both Houses of Congi eta who
voted for the acta incorporating; them."
"I am mortified (aaid Mr. C.) that, in
this country, boasting of ita Anglo-Saxon
descent, any one of respectable atanding,
much leia the President of the U. Slatea.
ahould be found to entertain principles
leading to such monstrous naultj ami I
scarcely believe myself to be breathing the
air of our country, and to be within the
walla of the Senate Chamber, when I hear
auch doctrine indicated. - It is proof of
the wonderful degeneracy of tlie time, of
a total Iom of the true conception of con -
I atitutional liberty. But in the ro'uUt of

- meaning of Wbix and Toryyand what in
the character ot the timet, which haacaut
e l their sudden revival, aa party designa
tion at thi lime? I lake it the very et-
a -nce of Toryism. That which constitutes
a Tory is .to sustain prerogative againet
privilege, tit aupport the Executive against
the Legislative department of ihe. Govern
ment, arid to lean to the aide of power a
gtinst the aide of liberty; while the Whig
is, id all these particulars, of the very op
pose principles."
In hia lata speech on Mr. Tyler's first
veto, on presenting a preamble ajad rt so
lution from Goochland, (VaJ (apptjuving
that veto in advance, he aaid: KJ
"He concurred heartily with the meet
ing in the approval of the veto. It would
do much good. It had destroyed the bank
bill, and, he trusted, would prevent the
creation of any bank herealter, which
would indeed be a great dcliveranccJlci
went farther; be notnty anprmeJ of the
veto, but concurred with ihe President
that, in vetoing this bill, with his opinions
of the unconstitutionality and inexpedien
cy of the bank, long entertained and often
and fully expressed on many anil side inn
ocrasiona, he but performed a high act of
dutr", bofh' tirtlie" Constitution and' him
self, for which he is entitled to the thanks
of the country."
"Anil here he would avail himself
of the opportunity to make a few re
mark on the veto power. He did not re
gard (hat power with the aversion it waa
viewed on tlie apposite aide of the cham
ber. On the contrary, according to 1ila o
jiin, it waa a high conservalive-prrweiy
intended not Only to guard the rights of
the Executive and those reserved by the
Constitution to the Statea and the People
against the encroachment of Congreaa, but
also the weaker interests of the communi
ty sgainat the oppression and plunder of
the r. nger. It was, in this view, a high
and saltMary power, which, fmnvt nature
aa a negative power, was almost incapable
of abuse."
Thus, Mr. Calhoun deals with the veto
power a he doea with the question of a
National Hjnkj it ia right when he thinks
it right,and wrong hen he thinks it wrong
Whi n Gen. Jackson vetoed a National
Bank a unconstitutional, it. waa gtcal

prerogative wielded recklesaly against the
i itr.reta of the People, an impeachment
if Washington and Madison, and the Con
gress which acted with those illustrious fa

' 'leaning to the side of power sgainat the

hat fa'tlilessly to hia party and the Peo

"is a high art of duty, both to the Consti

ofjh Caroline, testified aa to the facta
connected with the destruction of that vea

petition. He had some difficulty in escap
ing from the steam boat after she waa "ctp
tured. On crossing the whai I, he saw the
body of Uuifee about 3 or 4 leet from the
boat. Five witnesses then testified that
they knew Durfee and that he waa killed
on the occasion. One mitness showed that
a sun was loaded with powder on board
the Caroline, and fired on th night she
was cat out. It was shown by the witnes
aea that arm, men, and munitions were
conveyed to Navy Island bv the Caroline,

ed bmlly, but could not recognize the com
mander of the attacking oartv. A bar
keeper at Chippawa aaw three boate return
rrom the destrucuan of the Caroline, and
was positive that McLeod waa one of the
party it waa pretty dark, waa wi hin ten
feet of him, heard him apeak, knew hie
voice better than his face. One Carson
saw McLeod at Chippewa on the day after
the expedition, and heard him abuse the
Yankees and say he ahould like to be on
another expedition like the Caroline, to
cutout and burn Buffalo. Another wit
ness had heard the prisoner boast of kill
ing a Yankee, and waa sure McLeod did
embark with the expedition. Four wit
neee then testified that McLeod was at

was then introduced showing the lalaehood,

who ttwoie met positively to the return of
McLeod tram the expedition, and Ids gen

UKNKKAL REVIEW.
The two Reginiente of Wake Militia were
reviewed in this City on Ssturday last by Brig
adier General Crenshaw and Staff, aasistad by
Uiigadier General McClanahan, of Granville,
and Sufi". The officers were richly and hand
somely equipped, and appeared lo perform their
respective duties with celerity and promptitude.
They were especially pleaaed by the Raleigh
Guarda, who presented a doe and Soldier-like
appearance, Indead, it waa the remark of aa
intelligent officer of the dav, one of the Aids of
Gen. McClanahan, that he had seen many of the" j
finest infantry companies of the North, where
military discipline and address are brought to
their highest and fulleat perfection, but that cone
of them aurpassed the Raleigh Guarda, either iu
appearance or in the manner in which they went
through the customary evolutiona.
BIRTHS AND UEA'i'HS TUB REASON
WHY OUR POPULATION DOES NOT
INCREASE MORE RAPIDLY.
Aa act waa passed by the Leoislature of Lou
isiana, at its last aession, which provides for the
recording of births and deaths of all whites snd
free people of color In the severs! Parishes of
that State. The act ia published iu "The Con
stitution" of the Snd instant. It make it the
duty of the Parish judge to receive declarations
from the fathers, or othera who were present, of
births within eight days, and to record tha names
of the children ia the presence of two witnesses,
hich record shall contain the day, hour, snd
place of birth, the sex and name of the child.
and the names, &c. of ita parents. In like man
nerall deathsshall be recorded tha judge re
ceiving as a fee for every aueh record, 60 eenls.
Such a record will ceiiainly be a useful and in
teresting document among the archives of every
county. Yet we know of 00 Stale, except Lou
isiana that haa provided for it bv etatuta
4
n our own State, where thera rri n mm.
birtha, and an few deaths, eompsralively, the
first branch of ihis duty would be highly pro
fitable to ihe recorder
But why, it may be askeJ, if North Caroli
na contributes ao largely lo swell the tide of the
rising jrensrstion, e not th Census shows
greater increase of population within her bor
ders! To this inquiry, the answer is at hand.
The lack of an enlarged, liberal, and judicious
system of public improvement at home, drives
our young men, aa soon ss they are sent out into
the world lo provide for themselves, to launch
their boats into the current of emigration to seek
their fortunes abroad. Take Raleigh for ex
ample. Here we have, perhaps, fifty birtha to
one death. Yet the population, aa to number.
rename almost stationary. Did all the children
now alive, bora and raised in this city, still form
a portion cf id citizens, w should not exagge.,
rale to say it population would not fall abort of
ten tl.oownd aoule,' Burwhere are ihey( They

can th Legislature haa oeglected to provide
la tnean of eommunicetio between -the city
and the rich agricultural eectiona of the Slate,
Which are favorably located with raapect to com
mercial iotercnurs with it, and endued to e-
pea a channel thence lo a seaport within 00 r
ownlimita.
In this, it is now ss plain aa day-light, the Gov
ernment b as acted unwisely. The want of a
great central inaiket, and facilitiea ia transpor
tation, i th grand cause of the spsrseness of
our population the hard late of our moat use-

all our complaiola. A it ia a aouod nsaiw,
tbo' altered by a poet, that a knowledge of the
disease i half th euro, we may now hope for a
apeedy application of the proper remedy: It ie
lo open a read to the farmer that will enable biro
to get Ida produce to aa good a market in hia
own Slate epon a cheap and eaay term a be
eea elsewhere. Common sense points out the
City of Raleigh aa the point for the reception of
Ihe produce of many of tb western eouati,
aad ihe construction ef a MeAdamised Turnpike
from thia place to the mooouio, aa th proper
method of providing for it eaay tranaportatioe.
Let thia be dene, and then let the Wilmington
