hook. There you will find jvvs specifying this power and . ijthorizing its exertia, in drivjn.T intruders from the public InJs. is but A few years, s:r, since the President's proclimation required the exercise c power, and but for the relaxing policy of the governnient, the military force of the country, would have been emHoved in carrying it into effect. fare then is a case, in which congress may, constitutionally csJude, the further introduction of freemen from that soil; much easier do I apprehend may she exclude slaves mere property. A case, in which congress may, after the admission cf a state without restriction of shverv, hold a direct and absolute negitive, over the peopling her territory with slaves. Sir, the third section of the fourth article of the constitution, says that "new states may be admitted by the congress int j this union.' Here, sir, 13 i'l the power known to the con. Stitution, on the subject of adrutting new states. Congress 51 s admit, and may refuse adr. is ion. Congress may exercise a broad and uncontrolable discretion on the subject; but in the pioper cxercUe of this discretion, congress may not reject without a cauic. if a cause of rrjection exist, this House will know it. Congress may then examine the boundaries exhibitc in the constitution submitted, to see that t hey do not p is the limits and bound iries of this government; for if the doctrine contended for oy many gentlemen on this fl or be correct, that congress can only determine whether thi constitution be republican or not, then the question of boundary, would be an improper enquiry for this Ilou-e. The people claiming xhnusion, might stop at t!ic Sibine, or go to the Rio del N rte. 1 hey might include the more western provinces of Mexico, or go to the Lthmu of Diiien. This doctrine established, with the binding obligations of the treaty, to admit the people of Missouri, as contended tor by other gentlemen, and the question of boundary with Spain, is no longer under the sole direction of the trcatv making power. The people of Missouri may go to the West 2nd to the South, to the furthermost boundary ever claimed by the government. You arc bound by the treaty, six gentlemen, to admit them, and c:kc admitted, you arc bound In the constitution to protect them agiinst invasion.

of the constitution comes in aid of toy opinion?. The fourth section of the f .vurth article says, " the U.

Congress cannot guarantee anv thing of which she is ignorant; 8c the cuautiunal protection aairnt iavasi in and domestic violence in favor of the itate3, carries with it something more than a rrxre supervision i f the constitution to see if it he rep-iViican; for the seeds of discord and domestic violence may he sown in a constitution, although it he rep ihlicati. A thousand features mav be found in a constitution calculated to produce invasion, tho' th.it constitution be rpublican. In-vasi.-in St domestic ii)Icnce," are cffects -ome tin.cif uid instates. Ccngrths is bound to control ;d do aw ay these t fTect-,. She is bound also, both t ,r her bencf-t and tliat of the state, to d ) a vay the obvious causes of 'invasion and domestic viclcr.ee," lc if th-e obvious causes aie found in the constitution of a new stu, corrjss is bound by e. cry consideration of justice, both to the jrcr.trrd overr.ment anl to such New tatc, to rf quirt that those cbjectornble parts of her tor stitution be expu'-rd, b f jre she is adinitttd intfth- union.

V.rc have r.ot understood that any thing decisive ha- been done 1 ejecting our relations with Spun. c are inhmned, by letter which have iccently arrived from the city jf WiNliittuu, that Williamson Dunn, Esq. of this county, has been appointed Register of the Luul odice established at Tcnc Haut. i'his appointment w ill necessarily prevent that gentleman trout serving us as a representative in the next General Assembly of this state. He cannot therefore be considered as a candidate. We have necessarily had to emit much matter prepared tor this week'spapcr, to nuke room tor a part of Mr. Heudiicks speech, which will be seen on the second page, delivered in Congress on the Missouri bill. Mr. Hendricks' sentiments perfectly accord with our oau, and we have no doubt also with 2 very great majority cf hi constituents. Aptclnintnts by tit PreiJ:nt, Gen. K.

We are authorised to announce David Hiliis, Eq. as a candidate to represent the ountici ot Jetierson, Jenningi, Ripley and a part ri Scott, in the house of Representatives ot t'ie next General Assembly cf this state. We are authorised to publish Mai. John Sheets as a candidate for tbf l..'isl tture ot this state at the next annual election. We arc authorised to say, that Thomas Crawfcrdis a can

didate to reprint this district in the house of Representatives of this state. We are authorised to sav, that Jacob Rhoad and Ekill'is Wilihite, are candidates for the olHce of sheriff of this county. We are authorised to state, that Charies Johnson, is a candidate for county commissioner. We have received information, the authenticity of which cannot be questioned, that " the provisional Government of the Constitutionalists at jff, (the heaJ quarters) have in their Gazette flrr.iallu u -knowledge J the independence cf South America." It is true, that this act is liable to a reconsideration when the national government shall be established; nevertheless, the fact is sufficient to convince us that a further prosecution of the M-ar in South America is net the rUh of the. "people of Spain, and that the qoernment be influenced in future by the wishes of the peop!?, there can now be no doubt. We are even rdv tj believe th it, if the constitutionalists are disposed to make K;ns with Ferdinand at all, one of the stipulations will be the acknowledgment of the independence of toe South Ameri:an culonies. We can also state, pout: wlr, tht orders have been given at Madrid, to dismiss all the transports so lnj; employed at Cadiz. Thus is all idea of the expedition to oouth Americ cjficiallu abandoned. -.V- rfjlk Ha cid. x.x tract cf a letter 'tj a gentleman in this C:tu, dated U.S. Ship Fiankihu New-York, April -ii5, 182U.
