ECONOM Y - RKTItENCHMENT
AN'D REFORM.
We would Vaj ' a word to the people
on these pregnant words. They were
tlie iotenrsprTngTncrougnTUernrr
rat Jackson into power; and, stianue
as it appears to those who know tlie
facts, they are the influence which have
continued linn and his party in ollice.
We ask the people, more especially
the honest tax paying people, to look
the truth in the face to see factSLas
they are. These words were the watch
words the rallying off of flie proiilc,
who were taught to believe tbat Mes
srs. Adams, Clay and Webster had
formed a coalitiun, tkc basis of w hich
was the American Syt'cm. That sys
tem rested upon the East and the West.
It was but another name for high taxes
and extravagant expendituresthe ta
riff and internal improvement. It ar
ranged the succession for twenty-four
years: "first Mr. Adams, next Mr.
Clay, and then Mr. Webster,
It is useless to disguise the facts
they are so; and it was so understood
by those who in 1828 rallied under the
standard of "Economy, Jletrenchmtnl

this ground chiefly, that Air. Adams
was ilcleateu.
vveteel bound to ilisclaim all pur
rm?e of-giving tflfcnee by recurring to
these facts, because we are full v sen
siUle that the issue now before the pub
lic is diflerent, taVli Cerent from that
which was before thorn at the last elec
tion. Mr. Clay and Mri-W'ebster have
both,: by their upMirt ; of the distribu
tion bill of the last session, T abandoned
tbeJ American Sysen.M.They have
thrown lhemielves to that extent on
the side of economy,, retrenchment
and reform, and a large majority of
their firmest supporters are the advo-
eatcs of Judge White or of Gen. Har
rison, both of whom are more pledged
to carry out economy as a measure of
the Federal Government than General
Jackson himself. These remarks, if
will (herefore be .seen, instead -of be
ing a reflection on the past, are intend-ed-to
show that the experience of the
present administration has satisfied
both Messrs. Clay and Webster of the
dangerous tendency of high (axes and
profuse expenditures; and that Mr,
Van Buren, who voted for the highest
and most exorbitant tariff, is the can
didate of the party who in practice and
principle are extravagant and corrupt.
We would call the public attention
(0 another fact. The question is no
longer between Gen. Jackson and Mr.
Clay. Tlie one pledged to Economy,
Retrenchment and Jiefornu and the
other to the "American XutlinT-tfiTj
is-btwceJl-.B!iren.whojroM
for the tariff of 1828, and who is
pledged to the most extravagant ex
penditures, end Judse White and
General Harrison, both of whom are
pledged to "Economy, Retrenchment i
and Reform.'-- ;---r-i;------i
We would illotraTnhi truth by
the following table of comparative ex
penditure. Let every cili read
and snake up his opinion lor himself.
Although the party press has lavished
so much praise open Gen; Jackson for
the payment of the public debt, it will
ue een that he has paid less on that
account than liis predecessors while
he has far exceeded them under every
oilier head of expenditure j which may
be thus briefly summed up:

I had an interview with htm this morn
insrunonthe subject and he well re
collects the fact, and he equally well
recollects that we all. considered Gov,
attended varlrius meetirigirheld u pon
the subject, and - previously having
signed an association ;wbich was en
tered into for the dissemination ot our
principles, by the establishment of
another paper in Raleigh, and by other
means, and having uen several cop
ies of a Prospectus, which was issued,
to .which he promised to obtain sub
scribers. This paper ha been mislaid
and cannot iiovjr be found, or 1 would
send it to you. Gov. Spaight will not

it shall be sent Jo you 0 ruMj.?hed,-.ioi

Whether Gov. Spaight was a, Nul
lifier or not I cannot say, but this
much I can siv considered him
tonVnttl
tojudge, whether I was not justihed
in drawing such an inference, when
I state to them tfce grounds upon
which it Was founded. The grounds
are these: He knew my sentimens
as promulgated through the columns of
the -iWeRtern Carolinian.l. .JFJie ; de
bate on Foot's Resolutions had taken
place; Gen. Hayne had innde liis
speech in which the doctrine was a
vovyed, nnil upon which Gen. Jackson
congratulated him, and the whole par
ty, who made proposal to me, boliev -ed
in its truth.- it is true, the name
if nullification was not .then attached
"oour principles. We were not known
by that name, until after the split be
tween Gen. Jackson'and Mr. Calhoun,
hich was brought about by Mr. Van
Buren, for the purpose ..of prostrating
his distinguished rival, which you re-
sol lect did not take place u ntil 1 83 1 .-4
It was then, that Gen. Jackxon, tor
the purpose of destroying Mr. Calhoun
in the estimation of his countrymen,
through his venal partisans, abused
under the name of Nullification, the
principles, which brousht him into
power, anirviclrinTdTinTg the day
oi iir. jeuerson, oeen consiucreti tne
cardinal principle of the Republican
party. But though the name "Nullifier"
did not attach to me at that time, the
principles I supported then, were the
principles I support now, and Gov.
Spaight and the party well knew it at
the time. And I as firmly believe, as
I believe there is a God in Heaven, if
Gen. Jackson had not deserted his
principles. Gov. Spaight never would,
but now as, then, would have been a
zealous an advocate for the principles
of the Republican party, as he is of the
monsrel principles of Mr. Van Kuren.
But I have already trepassed too long
upon your patience, and that of your
readers, and will, therefore; close this
communication, by subscribing myself.

caught by the humbug,-is inexplicable
and extraordinary. What are the
facts of the case? Once the-public
lands were sold to actual settlers at a
fixed price; a per centae was raid on
ihe purchase, and government took a
mortgage, ilrawing six per cent, per
annum interest on the residue. Here
was real security, real safety; but the
spirit of speculation w as upt the lands
were sold, and rags of any Bank were
taken in full payment for the same,
it was not considered prudent to allow
the government a lien on these lands.
Mr. Clay, finding that fraud, specu
lation and ruin would grow out of ail
these prnceedincs, broached the sub
ject, and carried it through the" Sen-
ate, ol diviUing the proceeds of the
sales of the lands among the States.
The speculators, howeVer, defeated
this project. ; The Kitchen Cabinet
