At i2 o'clock, on Saturday 29th ult. the Members of ihe Senate repaired to the IIousu of Commons, to witness the Inau guration of Edward 13. Dudley, as Gover nor of the State, for the ensuing two years. The Governor was attended to the House by Messrs. Edwards and Shepard, of the Senate, and Messrs. Williams and Wad dell, of the House. The Oaths of office were administered by his Honor Judge Saunders; after which, he roseandread the following : "In accordance, Gentlemen, with the in timation you have conveyed to me, and in obedience to the requirements of the Con stitution, I appear before you this day, and have sealed with the solemnity of an oath my feally to the Laws and Constitu tion of our beloved State. The occasion and the rites are most imposing. Religion lends her aid to patriotism, and in the pre sence of tnc Must High, we pledge, upon the Altar of our country, our best efforts for her welfare. Hut you must allow me lo embrace fhp. occasion, to express to our common consti tuents, the emotion which fills me at thi renewed evidence of their regard. To have been selected once, for the highest office in the People's gift, was enough for mere ambition, but to have been preferred a second time, and over one of the most distinguished sons of the State, stamps my public course and my political principles with the general approbation and is too gratifying for any ellort of language to ex press. Allow me Gentlemen, to ask your aid, and to make you the heralds of my grati tude. Day to our common constituents, that the obligations they have imposed on me are a constant and feeling memorial of my duties that the same interests and the same destiny bind us together forever that the character of our common ancestry- shall meet no reproach in my person, but shall guaranty a taithlul discharge at least of my Executive duties. But, Gentlemen, I am far from looking to my election as a mere personal triumph. It siands on much higher ground for it is, in my estimation, the triumph of law and order over doctrines of the most pernicious and disorganizing tendency. A spirit of bold disorder, ot daring and licentious riot, is abroad in our country and threatens the stability of our Institutions. Its watch words are 'the People against the Banks' 'the People against the Aristocracy' 'the poor against the rich,' &c. This wretched jargon is of European origin, and has been introduced by loreiguers into our happier country. Here the base and the designing have appropriated them to the accomplish ment ot their unhallowed purposes, and an effort has been made to introduce into our State these loathsome heresies. But, thanks to the public soundness and intelligence, never was mischievous folly more signally rebuked. Our People are not yet steeped so highly in moral os po litical profligacy, as to enact laws and grant privileges, but to abrogate them. They are yet to learn that it is right or just to concede, at one moment, charters, invest ing rights and property, and at the next, to render them, valueless by denunciation, or to destroy them by violence. As to our Aristocracy, gentlemen, I need not tell you that our Institutions neilher le- Sl-iiize nor rccorni7." il? evistpnep: t b.it it lives but in the diseased fancy of the worth .. , less and envious leveller, who, despairing to elevate himself, seeks to pulldown olh ers lo his own poor standard. We have no AritOv-racy but that which superior in dustry, intelligence and moral worth con-It-rs, uiul uf tbat, w lffft govcrunitrnl would not be justly proud ? Put, gentlemen, there is danger in this wanton madness; and it is our duty, Patriots, as faithful Representatives o'f the people to warn and to admonish them of the brooding mi-Jiicf. Error and vice should not be made the-synouimes of truth and viitue. The moral sense of the commu nity cannot be trilled with impunity; it may become blunted and corrupted, for constant attrition will affect the soundest subsiances. Them let us teach ihe mere partizan, and the unprincipled demagogue, that the end cannot justify the means; mat, by de.-troying the landmarks between right and wrong, he is sapping the very founda tion of our Government, and can receive no countenance from us who have sworn, this day, faithfully to execute the law. The man who could direct public odium and public violence, by whatever indirection, against one of the legalized institutions ol the land, betrays that destitution of prin ciple which fits him ror crime and outrage ot every character; and he who could hurl afire brand ygaiust a Chartered company, would, be assured, to accomplish an end, desecrate the very Chamber in which you sit. I have addressed you gentlemen, So re cently and so fully upon our domestic and general interest, that it is unnecosary to trespass further on your indulgence, li is enough for me to add, that my views upon these subjects remain, not only unal tered, but strengthened by daily observa tion; and that 1 am firmly convinced, that our social and political depression can only he redeemed by a thorough reform of our Currency, the adoption of a liberal system of Internal Improvement and byT the es tablishment of Common Schools. That my suggestions upon these subjects, have not met your ready concurrence, is only a matter of regret to me, because I believe that the honor and welfare of our beloved State are dependent upon their adoption. From the Raleigh Standard. TREASON TO THE SOUTH. The following Letter from a distinguish ed gentleman in the City of Washington, to a member of the Legislature, contains lacts of the highest importance to every southern citizen. Will the people be permitted to hear the truth on this subject, or will they slill be deceived by the federal pres5es and politicians? Well may the' former beg for silence on the subject of abolition; for they7 have persevered in deception till the truth will overwhelm them with shame. trashing ton City, Dec. 13; 1833. No party now begin to be more sensible of the treason they have committed against their people, than the Southern "Whigs" their presses and their politicians are the most guilty, as time will shortly show from developments upon the subject of abolition. The Southern "Whigs," while they have not dared to vote against Atherton's Reso lutions, and openly assume the responsibil ity of rejecting them, have, as you will see by their votes, as recorded, many of them dodged the question, and voted for eveiy indirect motion to obstruct and prevent their passage. Hence their votes again taking the previous question to lay them on the table and an adjournment, when they knew, from every vote, that the South had a majority present in favor of the Resolutions, and were ready to pass them so soon as they could get at them to vote. But the Southern "Whigs," seeing that their Northern Allies, the Abolition ists, headed by John Q. Adams, were com pelled, by their votes, to expose themselves to the South, as the true abolitionists ol the country, were determined if possible, to screen them from the issuer even at the ex pense of every most dear and sacred right and interest ot the southern people; whom they had so much imposed on, by declaring to them that the Democrats or V an Buren men at the North, were as much abolition ists as the Whigs! They knew that the votes on these Reso lutions would at once expose the imposi tions they had successfully practiced at home to deceive their own people, and to keep them entirely ignorant of the true character of their enemies abroad. It was the exposition, too, of this treachery lo Ihe South, that they so much dreaded, and made them resort to every indirect mode to get clear of the Resolutions the votes on which, they knew, would inevitably ex pose their own position at home, and that of their "Whig" brethren of the North. Their votes have most clearly established that position. Never did a party writhe and twist more than did the Southern -'tFhigs," under this exposure. Some dodged entirely some declared they would not vote some objected to the grammar of the llesolu- ' lni';,.nc c.omn r - c jl . lunvsii.? ci.iv. uwuiicimion oi meir name? some that they did not -0 far e- nough for the bouth some that Congress had no right to vote on the subject, ami therefore they had none, and would not vote on them; while in the next breath, they held up Resolutions of their own, on identically the same subject, as an amend ment or substitute to the original, and ask ed for a suspension oXthe roles of the house ai : to introduce them. One called on the Van Buren men to stand up and toe the mark; when they came, almost to a man and sus tained Ihe South in the adoption of the Resolutions while the name of the "Whig" who called on them (Mr. STAN LY) will not be found on lie Journals, and he a Southern man! It was declared by one of these same Southern "Whigs," that the Resolutions were Northern Resolutions, when they were drawn up by Mr. Rhett of South Carolina, who has ever been considered one of the fire brands upon the sub ject of abolition, at the South, and pas sed as drawn up with some slight modifira tions; So much for their being Northern Resolutions. Mr. Atherton was selected to introduce them, as he had succcssfully fought our battles in the North, upon that suoject, and was nominated to do it by Mr. Lewis of Alabama, whose opposition to abolitionism will hardly be doubted byary but a lunatic. Never were such hollow pretentes set up by any paity, as those of the IVhigs of Ike South, to do away the effects of the evidence of the votes upon these Resolu tions, upon every Southern man, who has the common sense and mother wit io sec an inch before him; he will see that not only his own most sacred interest, but future salvation is jeoparded by the re creancy or treason of Southern "Whigs." But as that party has ever relied upon the ignorance and stupidity of the people, it may be that even this evidence hiay not awaken nor arouse them to fesent the im positions they have suffered from their public presses, and the treachery and faith lessncss of their politicians. You will find, by the yeas and naysj lhatthe whole De mocracy of the North, or the Van Buren party, with few exceptions, ivent ivilh the South; while every Northern Whig, to a man, went for the Abolitionists, and a gairist the South. This conduct has indu ced such men as Shepard, and Sawyer and Gov. Branch, from our own State, and the whole of the delegation from South Caroli na, (with the exceptions of Thompson and Preston) and thousands of others, to aban don at oncej and denounce that treacherous party; and there are thousands more ready to do the same, if they had the moral cour age to shake off the malign influence of iheir presses and leading politicians. Mr. Wise, to day introduced a scries of Resolutions, of much the same tenor of those that were passed yesterday; to sus pend the rule for the consideration of which, he voted, after refusing yesterday to vote on the subject, assigning as a reason, thai Congress had no jurisdiction over the subject. So it seems, from him that the jurisdiction of Congress depends on the per son Who introduces resolutions On this sub ject So much for the consistency ot this consistent Jv hig Leader. All the aboli tionists voted with Wise; the democrats were divided on this subject; the most of them believing that the matter had been sufficiently acted upon; and that Wise's Resolutions were a mere repetition of what had been passed yesterday. This move of Wise, the effect of which was to set ten the abolitionists, gies new courage to them; and Slade, the celebrated abolitionist from Vermont, immediately af ter introduced his resolutions against buy ing and selling Slaves. Upon the introduc tion of this Resolution, the whole aboli tion force, who dared to act openly, rallied and voted. They were 57 in number, of which every man is a Northern Whig, except 3 only! one from Massachusetts one from Vermont, and one from Connec ticut, if I am not mistaken, fiom hearing their answers as called. This vote on Slade's Resolutions, placed our Southern "Whigs" again in an awful predicament, their abolition Allies having now come out and spoken for themselves, under the lead of the celebrated Mr. Slade of Vermont Fifty four out of Fifty-sev-dn of whom turned out to be thorough-going '-'Whigs. Will' not theee circumstances open the eyes of every Southern man, who has "a heart to feel or a head to discern? Ii evolutionary Mothers. It. is stated that 1000 of these ancient widows have already received certificates, under the ex isting laws allowing pensions to the wid ows of soldiers of the Revolution married previous to Jan. 1794, and that there are some thousands more of applicants. Shad. The first of the season was caught at Savannah on the 19th ult., and sold for 31 25. i: i
