A DA!?' aPCHs Having netn and heard great cleat of a Speech recently ;made in the House of tteprfcsentatives, by Mr. A4Mfe, (tli lite President) in which lc is !pwwwyfds touched upon" a very inflanimable toic m an injudicious man ner, we copy from & Nati&ial JnietHgenccr that portioji orljns i4 marks, to which we pre ume excepnohfias been taken. 'Sir. Adams said, the position he had assumed was- that the Government was i..;....d in ,xrArt tli'p prre.it interest, ad f thaiciti.ens. Where er any great interest existed in the cora " luuniivthere the protection of Govern ment 'mK of r.ght Iws .extended. But protection wight.be extended in different ' form to different, interests, It was true,' that the interests of one portion .of .the c immunity could ofien be protected only at the expense of some other portion oi ii. - It was the complaint ciT the milliners that ' the Government took ; money out of the pockets ufor.e portion of the Union, to nut it into the pockets of another. And, in extending protection, .this must always j more or less be the case. 'Bat then, while the-rights of one party were protected in this way. the rights of the other party were all v. but in a different wav. lie would illustrate this position. In the Southern and the Southwestern . poitions of this tTnioiu thet'e existed a certain interes', which he need not more particularly designate, which t-njoyedun-d,e the Con'tituuon, and the Lawn of the United States, au especial protection pe- c serions consideration, ' Ayh ether the orcli- nance of the NulUhers had not piaceu a.

He should nut farther enlarge on this point at-wesent. "lit it was a serious question, and it deserved seiio'is consideration. : Such was the protection extended by the Constitution to a particular interest in this Union. Mat that smn'c interest wa farther pro tected by the laws of the United S(ates. It wa protected by the existence of a standing armv. : If (he States of this U- nion were au nee uepninic.n "''-"i none of them possessed any of the machi nery of which he had spuken, and if ano ther portion of the Union were r.ot expos ed to another danger, from their vicinity. to the tribes of Indian savages, lie-believed it would be difficult to prove to the .House the necessity for any such thing as a standing army.

Oiher party organs, having their cue, assert that tiie whole matter is a 'po litical manoeuvre, to save Mr. Calhoun from utter ruin, wh.o, in return, is to help Mr. Clay hereafter. These, and a hundred ridiculous tales about bargain and coalition and other such stulf are made to resound through the newspapers in the inteiestof particular persons aud parties.

No order has at any time been given to re sist the c.mst it uted auf liont ies of Sou: h Carolina, within the chartered limi-s of id Slate." A.NDIIKW JACKSON. The following is the latest letter, and concludes ihe correspondence : DipkaTMEXT of War, J hi. 26, 18l3. S.r : I have received your letter i f the23il ins1, an.l am directed by tiie President to com mm icato to yoti his wish that you repair to Charleston, With the least possible delay, and assume the command of the troops in that quar ter, under the view and instructions hcre'olore communicated to you. This intimation would have been given before, but I supposed it was your intention to return, and therefore f- It un willing, by any expression of my expectation, to husten it, at the expense, perhaps, of incon venience to ourself. An express has beeu established between here and Charleston, and will be continued as long holding and supporting the 'Tariff at the j as the slate of things there may permit and re each 01 1 hem again? t invasion : and, on application of the legislature, . or of the txecutive, (when live legislature cannot be convened.) against domestic violence." This, to be sure, was a general provi sion operating alike on every portion of the Union. . hut every body knew, that "vhcre this sort of machinery existed, -the Slate was more liable to domestic viofcuce than the.- were elsewhere, because that machinery sometimes exerted a self-mo expense of the Union. South-Carolina nullified the laws of the country, and Mas sachusetts declared that resistance was proper if the laws were altered. Men's minds became soured fraternal feelings were forgotten and obstinacy had assu med its sway over our legislators. Up to this moment, Mr. Clay had faithfully, consistently, and nobly supported the 'Ta riff policy. He had stood by it through evil and through good report he had sus tained it, when to have wavered in his purpose might have secured his political advancement. He now saw that the 'Ta riff must be altered -that the violence and improper conduct of one State alone pre vented the entire South from making com mon cause against its continuance that, in line, the L'mo?i was in danger that Union, the value of which is inestimable and incalculable and which, at any ha zard, ' must be preserved. " In this e- mergency, with a heart glowing wiih pa ving power. . Siuh a power had been ex- j tnOtism an ardent love of country, which erted. 'The call for this protection had very recently been made: and it had been had strengthened With his years and a disposition untainted by mortified pride answered : and the power.of the Union ! or disappointed ambition he voluntarily had been exerted to insure the owners of the machinery against domestic violence. Mr. A. would say one word more on this jtiarantee ol a republican form of Govern ment. It was a serious question in his tnit.d, whether that patt ot the Constitu tion was not at this very time on the e e Dl b. ihg calkd info execution. He had no hesiiaiioii in l aymg, that it South-Ca-ro.una were not at tins moment under a government not lepuhlic; u, she ws at a' ciy iittle diiaLce trou. it. It deserved came forward, to sacrifice many of his own cherished opinions upon the altar of peace and harmony, and, if possible, once more to unite his fellow-citizen- as a band of brothers. What, on the other, hand, was the situation of Mr. Calhoun? He stood, almost alone, in deience of the most unwarrantable and unjustifiable mea sures of his own. state he felt" that that State was fast" lousing every hold upon public leelinj; thai Uie ground he occu- quire it. Should, however, any circumstance uela) or prevent it, you are at full l.berly, when ever you think the public in; crest requires it, to make other arrangements for the conveyance of your despatches. You can employ pdot boa s as you sgggest, when these be mcessary. I did not know till yesterday, that was orde-red to Savannah. Your course respect ing that olhcer was equally tirin and d screet, and met my entire appiobation. I have direct ed he should be immediately relieved and with drawn from that quarter. ' All your despa c'.ies have been communicated to the President, a id your general views and proceedings have been approved bv him. The three ordeis 10 which yuu refer, I shall briefly advert to. ' " It is ihe most earnest wish of the President, that the present unhappy difficulties 111 South Carolina should be terminated without any for cible collision ; and it is Ins determination, that if such coilis'.o'u does occur, it shall no! be pist-1 ly imputable to the United States, lie is there- i fore desirous, that in all your proceedings, wh-Jt; ! you execute your duty firmly, you act witji as ! much discretion and moderation as possible. j And this course he has never doubted you wd! adopt. Self-defence is a right, belonging as much to military bodies as to individuals ; and officers commandu g separate forts are responsible, at all times, fr their defence, and are bound to use, due , precaution to avo.tl d inger. If a body of armed men approach Sullivan's Island, wnh apparently hostile views, it will be proper to pursue the course indicated by von to Colonel IVmkhead. That i, to warn their commanding officer U) retire, and to inform him of the course which y u will be compelled to adopt, in the event of his continued approach. Should ibis warning be useless, and the armed body attempt to I: nd, you will be justified in resist. ng the at tempt. I!ut before tli 3 unfortunate alternative is r, sorted to, I rely upon your patriotism and discretion, to endeavor, by ail reasonable and peaceable means, to induce any such armed bo dy to abandon their enlcrpuz. . ihc Su - tctis should ask. the .Senate on Monday to con sider the resol iti'on. f 'The Senate proceeded to the consider ation of the Special Order, being the bill to provide- furtier for th,e collection of the duties on impo's Mr. Cafiourjresumed and spoke more than an hour i conclusion. Mr. AN ebste'j then rose, and addressed the Senate unfj 3 o'clock, when a recess took place unUi 5 o'clock, at which hour Mr. W. icsintii'd and spoke till past 8. 'The press o tithe immense concourse of bo;h sexes whifit tilled; the galleries, the lobbies, ami een the floor of the Senate chamber, during the evening sitting, was greater, if possible, than it wa.s during the forenoon. At tconc.lusion of Mr.'-Web-ster's speech, iie close of which is repre sented as eloqfnt and impressive beyond even his tonne;- great eliort, there was a spontaneous - hirst of applause from the gal leries. ; , Mr. Poindef ;er moved an adjournment; but the President onlereiHhe galleries to be cleared, would-notreceive the mo tion to atljourffuntil the order had been executed ; when the.Senate adjourned. Monday Feb. 18. On raotio'tvdl Mr. Chambers, the Senate took up the Resolution appointing a dav for the election of Public Printer ; which Mr. Chamber modified so as to read Tuesday. I ' Mr.. Grundy moved to strike out Tues day and insert Thursday, which motion was negatived;. there being but 12 votes in favor of if.5 Mr. Ben tt then gave his reasons for introducing ,is jifint Resolution. The principal ow ich was, that each Congress ought to afpont its own printer. Mr. Chamfers. remarked, that the law of the landijbliged them now to pro ceed to the ejection of a printer, and it ha-d been tff? uniform practice of both Houses, andjrliat tiie other House had al ready actetl ider it. A Mr. Calhoun said, he had not anticipa ted this question for this morning. When it was put,' he hoped jhere would be a full Senate. He moved the postponement of the further consideration of the bill till to-morrow. MrH-Forsvth hoped the postponement would not take place, as the Session was drawing to a close. He had a desire to' address the Seriate on the question before it.but was not disposed to do it. to-day. He had come here this morning, expecting ' i ' . r nu- tO hear the honoraoie enatcrr irom iViis- sissippi. He would suggest that, -if. no. additional amendments were to be ottered-, the bill should be passed to a third read-' in"-, and discussed on its passage. Mr. Calhoun. Toe third reading ot a bill, as the Senator know, ts the most trvitv nuestion. ' Having a solemn con viction of the importance of the question. he wished it to be taken in tujl Senate. Arnoi g the absentees was the colleague ot the Senator from Georgia, whose high cha racter in the United States, and great in- tluence in his own State, rendered it de sirable that his vote should be given on the question. Mr- Forsyth said, the absence of his colleague diil not Mender necessary any tlelav in the action of the Senate, lie would be heie as soon as he was notified that the question is to be taken. He wished to delay, his remarks on the bill until it was ascertained whether it was to pass the Senate. He wished to speak ol it as a law which was to go to the people. Mr. Calhoun bad no other object, he said, than to procure a full discussion of the measure, arid he regretted the inabili ty of the Senator from Mississippi to pro ceed at present. If any gentleman wish ed to offer an amendment, or to address the Senate, he would withdraw his motion to postpone. ' ' ' 'The motion having been withdrawn, Mr. Forsyth moved to amend the bill, by striking out the words "1st and 5th sections" therefrom. 'Tiie object and ef fect of this amendment was to limit the existence of the entire act to the end of the next Session of Congress, instead of limiting the existence of the 1st & 5th sec tions only. He regarded the measure' merely as one intended to meet a certain exigency which he hoped would soon pass away. He asked for the 'Ayes and Noes which were ordered. After some discussion," this irvptian was negatived 26 votes to 18. Mr. V'oindexter then rose and staled, that it Y ust bj evident, that to carry into effect the provisions of the bill some ap propriation was necessary. ' The bill au thorized the calling into operation the military force of the country, but provid ed no means for defraying the expenses. The. Constitution had prohibited the with drawal of any money from the Treasury, unless under an appropriation by law. 'The Senate was now about to employ thel army and navy to carry into etiect the provisions ot the bili, and the President ought to be limited in the expenditures for this purpose. He concluded with moving to amend the K II by inserting a new section, providing that for the pur pose of carrying into effect the provisions en ''adit., The question was at length tak engrossing the bill for a third i, which was carried $2 votes to 8. t i' .
