The House of Representatives have
re-comidered their vote -of Friday last,
ami reversed. the decision against the
SjltTax, by a majority of twelve votes,
as will be uaore pai ticularl jr seen in the
Proceedings of yesterday.
We congratulate the nation on the
manly spirit of conciliation manifested
by 'those, who have made a sacrifice of
their individual prejudices at the shrine
cf the; general good. In preference to
encouraging that collision of sentiment
and irritation of feeling to which the re
jection of a part of the financial report
appeared likely to give rise, and which
threatened the destruction of the whole
system, several,of those who arc from
local feeling opposbd' to that tax gave
their votes to reinstate if
The hopes of opposition are wnce
more defeated we trust they ever will
be, when, their success would accom

Act of the last General Assembly, vesting in
future Legislatures the right of choosing B
lectors to vote for tlie President and Vice
President of the United States. This right has
heretofere been vested in and exercised hy
the People, the only legitimate source of all
power,-and never has been abuied by them.
We consider the act taking this right from
the People aa unwarranted by any existing
necessity ai repugruru to the principles of
our Republican institutions and as danger
ous to the Lberties of the People., No ex
pression of the public will had ever been
made, which called upon the Legislature for
such a change. Norecesaity existed which
can justify such a daring and dangerous as
sumption of power. We can view thia act of
the Generar Assembly in no other litfht than
as a bold attempt to wret from the People a
right which constitutionally belonged to them
as a stepping- stone to bolder "and more dan
gerous usurpations of poweras an entering
wedge to other meaaures. which will eVentu
ally overturn our free institutions.
We, the Grand Jury, do therefore present
the said act as being unconstUuiinmd, unne
cesary and dangerous ; and da further pre.
sent that such usurpations of power ought
not to be quietly endured, but resisted by all
legitimate means ; and for such purpose we
do hereby enter, for ourselves and the body
of our County, our hearty disapprobation of
the said unconstitutional, unneceasary, dan.
gerous and anti-republican act.

Andrew Ellicott, Esq. who has
been employed for months past in ascer
taining the dividing line between the
states of Georgia Sc N. Carolina (the 35th
degree of latitude) arrived here (says the
Georgia Journal) with his attendants, a
few days ago, having completed the ob
ject of his enquiry. No official commu
nication has yet been made by Mr. Elli
cott to our Executive; but we learn that
no part of Walton country belongs to the
state of Georgia.
The. following is an extract of a letter
from Dct:oit, dated
February 10, 1812.
The "known connection between the 13ri
tish governor ami our savage neighbors, ere
atea serious apprehensions in the mind of e
very reflecting person in this place. Within
this week past, a deputation of six or seven
Wiandot Indians from Brownstoun. set off
for the Prophet'j camp on the Wabush. He
port says, they are deputed by Elliot, the In
dian B.itisli Agent at Maldefi. Many of the
old French settlers amongst us, uith whom
1 have had interviews, are decidedly of opi
nion, that the Indiana in our neighborhood
will generally attach themseres to the Pro
phet and his measures, and that we have no
time to lose in our preparations for defence.
These sentiments are not predicated iion
war with England. What will be our situa
tion should war with that country be de
clared ? The Indians in this quarter make
no stir, and it is only from the Canadians,
whom thy consider in their interest, thst
vou can discover their intentions. Tou must
r be well aware, that unless aided by troops
from abroad, an attack cither from the Inui
ana or English, united or alone, wiil prove
i fatal both to ourprivate interest and that of
! .... it- . i i '.i j: m,m.

not known, hut supposed larger than any one
upontbose waters "
ve have understood that a detach
ment of the Regular Troops of the U.
States are to be foithwith put in motion
for the quarter in which hcse alarms
prevail, which will douStless tend to
quiet them. Nat Intel.
. C7 A letter, dated at Amherstburg
written (we doubt not) by the same El
liot as is men ' ned above, appeared in
the Canada papers, and is going the
round of the federal prints, containing
the most ridiculous falsehoods imagina
ble about the late battle on the Wabash.

Riots at Nottingham. Et.gUnd.&
letter from a gentleman at Nottingham,
to another in London, dated December
15, says" There are 20,ooO stock-ma
ken. but of employment. Six regi
ments of soldiers irom different parts of
the country, have been sent into this
town ; and 300 new Constables have
been sworn in to keep the peace. But
all this is of no avail, as the practice of
setting fire to. corn and hay stacks, and
breaking open houses, still continues:
Nine hundred lace-frames have been i
broKeo, which cost I4w. each irpm 20
to 30 of them arc destroyed in a night.
The whole country, for 20 miles round,
is full of these .ruinous proceedings
nor can they be checked. Nottingham
Gaol is full of debtors ; and the country
is equally distressed. No trade ; no
money. This has been the case for two
months. The town is non a garrison,
and strictly under .martial law. God
only knows what will be the end of it
Nothing but ruin.
The-metropolis of England is repre
sented in some late London papers to
be in a state of consternation and horror
unexampled in the history of that coun
try. The commission of murder and
robbery there is so frequent, that, in the
language of the Editor of the Statesman,
no person of either sex can go to bed
without the apprehension of being be
reaved of life and property before the
next morning."
The editor of the (London) Indepen
dent Whig of January 5, in dilating up
on the relative situation of nfTairs be
twecn America and England, observes,
" the day that commences active hostirP
ties between the two countries, will be
the most fatal that En;;hnd ever saw I
for in the present desperate and almost :
irretrievable situation of our (English!
affairs, wc much fear that a war with A
mcrica abroad would be but .the sure
precursor of a civil commotion at home."
Speaking of the United States, Bell's Lun
don Messenger of the lcub Dec has the fol
lowing remarks! x
America is a continent. An inexhausti
ble store of all the necessaries snd conveni
ences has been given her by the bounty of
Providence." She is sufficient for herself, has
an inheritance of her own, of boundless ex
tent and fertility, and she even overflows for
others. She can have no natural dependence
or relation upon England, France,. or any o-llu-r
country; and the artificial ties, which
hold her by the chain of her own luxury,' a
wise government would feel no regret in
snapping asunder. j
It is pertVctly ridiculous to think that we
can annoy America by not dealing with her ;
or to imagine that, but for our supplies of
manufactures, the poor wretches of one half
of the habitable globe must return to the ori
ginal wildness of their woods, burrow wilh
loxes in caves, and get under ground for
warmth."
We predict, that a bittereribe to free
dom never had power to abuse, than this
Prince of .Wales. Already are Lord
Holland, Lord Grey, and the other great
whig leaders in the offing. .Even Lord
Moira, who is his creditor 300,000 ster
ling, for money lent and advanced, is no
longer a confidential minister ; arid Lord
Erskine, for daring to say in his place,
that he was a friend to Sir Francis Bur
den's efforts for reform, is absolutely an
outcast from his master's countenance
and society. Mr. Perceval has bought
Ids peace" with George the 4th,' by the
most unnatural, flagitious treaty, as we
have been credibly informed, that ever
disgraced the memoirs of court intrigue
by which it has been stipulated, that
Mr. Perceval shall carry through Par
liament a bill for the new King's divorce
from the Brunswick Princess he mar
ried, on tbe ground which that Catamite
of a minister is to assert, of her want of
chastity before theirmarnagei Lord

of Norfolk, and a de scendant of the lllustri

his country verv young, and from his con
duct arid disposition acquired the universal
love andrespectof all who knew him. He
was a midshipman on board thejPhiladeiphia
when taken by the Tripohtans,and was long
a captive and slave to that barbarous poeple.
Some two Or three years ago having the
command of the schooner Enterprize, of 14
guns, from Norfolk, bound to N. Orleans, he
encountered a gale of wind near or in the
Chesapeake bay, which entirely dismasted
the schooner, and obliged him to threw his
guns overboard ; he was on deck for thirty
hours during the storm, Caught a cold that
settled on his lungs, and which bafHed the
skill of the physicians, and finally terminated
his life at the early age of 27 years.'
On the 31st his body was carried up to N.
