We all remember the two great hns.-
T'ile, and sectional parties intowhich
the country was divided for so', many
years on the subject .of the tariff. -
With the elect itin ol Mr. Adams, the
majority in favor of the tariff became
fixed. In order to prevent his re-election,
the South was reduced to the ne-ces-ity
of making a choice of evils and
to Offer,- aa their candidate, a man,
whose opinions were undefined on the
great question, in controversy bc(wcen
(he two sections. General Jackson
was accordingly selected a a judicious
tariff man, and although we of the
South had our fears in relation to hi in.
we were compelled to adopt him, rath
er than submit to Mr. Adams' re-election.
We hoped that, receiving our
support, and being identified with us
in .interests, he (General Jackson
would use his influence, if elected,
gradually to correct the excesses and
abuses of Ihe system, and to bring the
revenue to - the standard which the
wants of the Government required.
Under this impression, he received nor
support, and was elected. But he.de
carved us. . W son saw that, instead
of fulfilling (he conditions under which
he was elected, he was intent on using
the position - which he occupied as the

ofthe fact simply, without pretending
to go into the cause; while on the other
hand, the South has never failed to
overthrow an Administration to which
it was opposed. But (wo Administra
tions had come in against its choice,
both of which were speedily and deci-
sively overthrown. General Jackson !
would soon be out of power, and the
Administration that may succeed him
could nut keep ihe South divided. He
would (ell the coming Administration
to beware. If there b:' any who ex

he has, he would be wotully mistaken.
With all hie objections to (he President,

high qualities: he had courage und
