It will not be denied fhat the prerent tpcct.of our National affairs, is at once iitpmentous and alarming. To the South, h is particularly so There are those from the Northern, Western, and Eastern sec-i tionof bvr Union, who are puttins forth all their energies (or the subversion of our consiitutional rights, in the overthrow of slavery among us. At this moment, both houses of Congress are flooded with peti tiottR,'taviirg for their object, the immedi- .ate Abolition of slavery in the District of VtfHin.bia, the common domain of the States of this confederacy. Already has the .question of lecetving these petitions Jbeen 'decided aains4 us ; and the coniti tutWtnal right ol Congress to tant their prater, is now openly, advanced and intffn'tained by those, who are ministering to the ambitious scheme of the northern anrc!idate for the Presidency.

This action of the Ntw OiTinnrf .i ... . : --rr-v iree insiiuctrons, was given by the iMortnern candidate for the Presidency, at a time when his political aspirations iiuu hoi pei naps transcended the bounds of his own State." It was civen, doubt- Jess, aa the result of the deliberate con fiction of his own mind, that the senti merits embodied in the preamble to the nonreturns, contained a true exposition of the constitution. Affirming these views, so adverse to your most vital in terests, we cannot believe, People of "Georgia I that vou can consent to place linn.-in tne cnair 01 the Union. In the antom of 1821, this same North ern candidate for the Presidency was a delegate hi the New York Convention, to amend the constitution of' that State. During ilVe session of that body,' there came up lor v action a proposition to ex tend the riglit of suffrage to the free ne groes residing there, when he was (bund among its advocates and supporters, zea lous ami active in graltmgon the fonda mental charter of that State, a nrincir.le revolting to every feeling to the South- assigning as a reason for his course, that, Hie would not draw a revenue from the blacks and yet deny them the rurht of frage.'

This is portion 01 ms language: l owe it how. ever, to candor, to say to you, that I have not been able to satisfv myself that the grant to Congress, in the Constitution of the power of ''exclusive legislation in all cases whatsoever," over the Federal Dis trict, dees not r.onfer on that body the same authority over the subject that would owerwise have bern possessed by the States ! Maryland and Virginia; or that Congress might not in vinue thereof, take suth steps upon the subject of the District j os loose States might themselves take withip their own limits, and consis tently with tlicir rights of sovereignity.' Thus viewing the matter, I would not from the fights now before me, feel my self safe in pronouncing that Congressdoes not possess Hie power of interfering with or abolishing slavery in the "District of Columbia." Such, Fellow-Citizens, are the views and such the opinions of Martin V Buren, who if not an abolitionist in name; et in all his public arts is one, so near, in'prac tice, as to become an unsafe depository of Executive power, by the free suffrage of the Southern slave-holder. But he is equally objectionable, in our view, on account of his uniform sapport of the protective system.

It was the special order of the day for Thursday last, and Mr. Smith (the'new ly elected Senator to Congress) advocated the resolution with great warmth. Hr bore testimony to the fair aiid-Oiier.in- jtionable character of Judge Waite on the bench ; but he was satisfied to sugport the resolution on mere partvj political grounds. He referred also to past instan ces, ra which judges had acted rom poli tical prejudices, and wished to provide against such occurrences in future, by having judges of such political principles o he himselt adopted.?

Andthe iNDteXCOBN.The Columbia. C. Hive contains a detailed account of an in teresting experiment made" by a Mr. Ca MK, of Georgia, to raise Indian corn with. out the?aid of tillage, simoly by covering tlie surface of the soil with leaves. ThI eafy coverrnff is intetuled to supersede h necessity of ttllase, bv nreserviinr moisture in the soil, and, at the" same time prevent its hardemns: or being: washed bv tlw rain. The process is truly a reasonable one which is but imitating nature ; for such is precise ly the process of Vegetation in the sftrte of nature: The earth is protected by athick covering of leaves from the iniuriotn effer of the sun and rains, and by its gradual de composition, the soil is fertilized and mad litfht and porous. Die only objections w"'t sruiu u De anticipated against Mr. C's. method is the probable deficiency of " heat, and the liability of the leaves to b scattered by the wind in very dry, or to be washed away in every wet weather.

Finding it impossible to extricate himself, and that he must.be suffocated if not immediately relieved, he loudly call ed out VVatch," "Watch," "Rob bers." A watchman ened to the spot, and was not a liitle 1 surprised on discovering that his service were put in requisition by a robber. After making several ineffectual efforts to get him out of the chimney, the watch man was at last obliged to procure a ham mer and knock down a portion ofnha chimney before he could release its in mate? and as soon as he did so. heacr.om. modated him with a more snaciou amrt. ment in the Watch-house: from wher K. was the following morning committed t prison.- iV, K Jour, of Corn.
