The will of the American people,

"V' exprcweJ through their unsolicited suffrages, calls me before you to pass through the solemnities preparatory to taking upon myself the duties of President of the United

States,

•j***

for ano

ther term. For their approbation ol my public conduct, through a period which has not been without its difbculties, and for this renewed expression of their confidence in my good intentions, I am at a loss for terms adequate to the expression of my gratitude.— It shall be displayed, to the extent of my humble abilities, in continued ei» fortsso to administer the Government, as to preserve their liberty and promote their happiness.

So many events have occurred with in the last four vears, which have, necessarily, called forth,sometimesunder circumstances the most delicate and painful, my views of the principles and policy which ought to be pursued ^by the General Government, that 1 |i- need, on this occasion, but allude to a few leadingxin%jdcrations, connecteH with some of ttifcrn. ,•* .'The foreign polky adopted by our

Government soon after the formation of our present Constitution, and very generally pursued by successive administrations, has been crowned with almost complete success, and has elevutcd our character among the nations of the earth. To do justice to all, and submit to wrong from none, h'ts been, during my administration, its governing maxim and so happy have been its results, that we are not only at peace with all the world, but have few causes of controversy, and those of minor importance, remaining unadjusted.

In the domestic policy of this Government, there arc two objects which i'peciully deserve the attention of the people and their Representatives, and which have been, and will continue to be, the subjects of my increasing solicitude. they are the preser ration of the rights of the several State?, and the integrity of the Union.

These great objects are necessarily ronnccted, and can only be attained by an enlightened exercise of the pow ers of each within its appropriate *phere, in conformity with the public will constitutionally expressed. To this end, it becomes the duly of all t© yield a ready and patriotic submission to the IHWS constitutionally enacted, and thereby promote and strengthen a proper confidence in those institutions of the several States and of the U-nited States which the people themselves have ordained for their own govern incnt. .v

My experience in public cbnccrns, arc! the observation of a life somewhat advanced, confirm the opinions long since imbibed by me, that the destruction of our State governments, or the annihilation of (heir control over the local concerns of the people, would lend directly lo revelation and anarchy, and finally to despotism and military domination. In proportion, thciefore, as the General Government cncroachcs upon the rights of the States in the same proportion does it impair its own power and detract from its ability to fulfil the purposes of its creation. Solemnly impressed with these considerations, my countrymen will every find me ready to exercise my constitutional powers in arresting measures which may directly or indirectly encroach upon the rights of the States, or tend to consolidate all political power in the General Government. But ol equal, and indeed o( all incalculable importance is the Union of these States, and the sacred duty of all lo contribute to its preservation by liberal support of the General Government in the exercise its just powers. You have been wisely admonished to "accustom yourselves to think and speak of the Union as of the palladium of your political safety and prosperity, watching for its preservation with jealous anxiety, discountenancing whatever may suggest even a suspicion that it can in any event be abandoned, and indignantly frowning upon thefirst dawning cf any attempt to alienate any portion of our country from the rest,or to enfeeble the sacred ties which not links together the various parts." Without uniou our independence and liberty would never have been achieved—without union they never can be maintained. Ihvided into twentyfour, or fveB a smaller number of separate communities, wc shall see our internal trade burdened with number* less restraints and exaction* communication between distant points and sec tions obstructed, or cut otT our sons made soldiers to deluge with blood the fields they now till in pcacc the mass of our people borne down and impoverished by taxes to support armies and navies and military leaders at the Head of their* victorious legiofft becoming oar law-^iveil and judges* Till loss of liberty, of all good government, of peace, plenty, ami happiness, must inevitably follow a dltealtitioii^of the Union. In supporting*!^ ttarefo**^ ire jMippftrt all that i« defej^to the fireman ttod the philaothropiit.

The time at which I stand before you is full of interest. The eyes of all nations are fixed on our republic. The event of our existing crisis will be decisive in the opinion of mankind of the of the practicability of our federal system of government. Great is the stake yfaced in our hands: great is the responsibility which must rest upon the people of the United States. Let us realize the importance of the attitude in which we stand

before

the world.—

I^et us exercise forbearance and firmness. Let us extricate our country from the dangers which sorroundit,and learn wisdom from the lessons they inculcate. »I)eep1y impressed with the truth of these observations and under the obligation of that solemn oath which I am about to tak-c, I shall continue to exert all my faculties lo maintain the just powers of the Constitution, and to transmit unimpaired to posterity the blessings of our federal Union. At the same time, it will be my aim to inculcate, by my official acts, the necessity of exercising, by the General Government, those powers only that are clearly delegated to encourage simpy* city and economy in the expenditure of the Government, to raise no more money from the people than may be requisite for those object?, and in a manner that will best promote the interests of all classes of the community and of all portions of the Union.—

Constantly bearing in mind that, in entering into society, individuals must give up a share of liberty to preserve the rest," it will be my desire so to discharge my duties as to foster, with our brethren in all parts of the country, a spirit of liberal concession and com promise and, by reconcilingour fellowcitizens to those partial sacrifices which they must unavoidably make for the preservation of a greater good to recommend our invaluable Govern mentanJ Union to the confidenceanc affection of the American people

Finally, it is my most fervent prayer, to that Almighty Being before whomT now stand, and who has kept us in hands from the infancy of our Republ to the present day, that he will so overrule all my intentions and actions, and inspire theheartsof my fellow-citizens, thai we may he preserved from dangers of all kinds,and continue forever a UNITED A MD IIAPPY PEOPLE.

*110* TUB NSW YORK STANDARD. IRELAND. From recent appearances, the re-establish-ment of this ill-fated country as a seperate kingdom, would seem to be not an impossibility. The London Times, of the 1st of January, in stating ttie Result of the recent election for Parliament, says that of the 96 members already returned, 40 are liberals, 33 repealers, and 23 conservatives, or as they were formerly called, tnries. Mr. O'Connell, himself a host, is the leader of the repealers, and among the recently elected members, 8 arc closely related to him by birth or marriage, and of course go with him in politics. It has been the fashion, among the English papers for the last three or four years, to snectat Daniel O'Connell and his designs but he is not fb be so driven by such means from his purposes. He devoted himself to the attainment of Catholic emancipation, and effected his object after years of almost incredible exertion.

That was bat'a step, however, in Iris plans for the regeneration of Ireland, and no sooner was it accomplished than he proceeded to new enterprises. The repeal of the Union is now his avowed purpose. Can Any man say that be will not succeed in it? The difficulties are, it is true, enormoos but so were the obstacles to emancipation. It has been said again and again, tbat England will never consent to the separation of Ireland but «o it was said that England would never content to the removal of the Catholic' disabilities—necessity was too strong for her in that case the cause of that neces«ity, Daniel O'Connell, is again in the field, and laboring with the same energies and greater means of success—may not those means and4"energies gain triumph?

Whether a repeal of the Union, #nd the establishment of a local legislature, controlled as of coarse at wnld be by the imperial Parliament, would be tte best way of unending the condition of the country, is a question 00 which many differ fronj Mr. O'Connelly* It may be the most practicable one. Bat the commerce of the two countries would hardly be subjected to restrictions less favorable to Ireland when separated, than now when united to the more powerful kingdom, and the deepest and broadest evils which she suffer*-—the tenure of her soil, and absenteeism, could only be mitigated, not removed, by a repeal of the Union. From any change, however, good can only cone, and wjth that conviction $e

COXaUrOXDEKCE OF THfTBALTWOa* PATRIOT ^Washington, Feb. 27,1833# Great warmth has been exhibited Ihis afternoon and evening in the House of Representatives on the question to postpone the consideration of the enforcement Bill until to-morrow. Many members,, especially from the South, declared and believed that they ougfat to do nothing more than pass the iWff, because the South would be satisfied with tbat bill. They seem never to have imagined tbat there was any other party to be sa$sfied.—

Their horizon did not extend farther North than the course of the Potomac. If those South of that lint are conciliated and tranquilized and put in good junior, what did it matter if the North ernpartof thn Union were disWtisfied and thrown into confusion? In their opinion, it would appear as if the manufacturers of the North and their friends were considered as nothing better than hewers of wood and drawers of water to the Southern gentlemen. It was intended by some of these to

givethe

Enforcement Bill the go-by,

and thus to achieve a triumph over the General Government* JBhtJ am disposed to think that the silly articles in the Telegraph of to-day, announcing that the Tariff Bill would pass, and that the Enforcing Bill would not, has in some degree, alarmed the Senate, fori understand thefe is a strongdisposition on the part of the Senate,

they see that there is to be any serious effort to put aside, or to destroy, the enforcing bill in the House, to lay the Tariff on the table. Another delay will suffice to show what course things will take the third reaeing of the Tariff being fixed for to-morrow^ The Union men of South Carolina voted to-day to take up the Enforcing Bill.— Mr. Blair advqi^et to the fact that their property jeopardy, and that they were in danger of being assassinated, unless the Government would take some step for their assistance and many who had previouly voted against taking up this measure, having become suddenly but not very unreasonably, apprehensive lest the

Tariff bill should be left in the lurch, conceived that the only way to prevent that g^lamity would be to act on the other %iH. It has indeed been said that so determined is the President that Congress shall not have occasion to say that the enforcing bill is deferred for want of time, that he will, if the bill should be driven over, call an extra session to secure its passage before the next session.

I understand thai the Senate to-aay lor (I believe) tbe third time, rejected the nomination of the notorions Gwynn, who was translated from the situation of a clerk in the Post Office to that of a Receiver of public moneys in Mississippi. The President has been persevering in his efforts to get this man a constitutional aprointment to a lucrative office but he has been unfortunate in his attempts to bring over a majority of Abe Senate to his views.

John Randolph was stretched at his length on one of the sofas of the llouse to-day, noticing no one, and by no one noticed. He lodks ghastly, speaks in whispers, and moves his body by installments, a limb at a time.-— Both Houses have their evening sessions to night. Clayton of Georgia has been exceed ingly coarse and virulent, and will provoke some $ngry replies. I almost dread lest some rencontres should take place.rif

PARTIES AT WASHItfOTON. 4 A Washington Correspondent thus writes to the editor of the Baltimore Patriot: "I desire you to inform me, if you know what has'become fcfr the demo*-

ratic party,'—, or *111$ anti-masonic party,' and if you are in a proper mood, you may tell me whether (General Jackson is a Jackson man,or a\Veb*ter main, and whether Henry Clay is for himself or some other person. FWi altogether a ganger in this city/ but

in my reading of the newspapers,! had

been infnrmed that Mr. Clay was at the head of the Tariff pany, that Mr. Calhoun was at the head of the Free Trade party, and that Mr. Webster & Gen. Jackson wcreatswopd^' point?. Now, I have been in (he city but a few weeks, and yet, guess my surprise Isc teg in company—and Mr.&rfendy calling Mr. Webster a clever (ellow for aidins him and the Administration to pass the revenue act, to put down the NulUfiers. I heard also that one Col. Benton and a Mr. Forsyth were great opponents of a high Tariff, and friends of a reduction of the duties, and now every daj I see them obstructing Mr. Clay in his efforts to reduce tb*Tariff.

We have been favored Witt the following letter from a clergyman who went passenger in one of tbe vessels sent from this port, by the liberality of onr eitisena, with provisions for the relief of tbe Cape de Verd sufferers. The discription it gives of the distress and mortality which tbe famine in those islands had occasioned, and the frantic joy with, which tbe starving inhabitants hailed thto arrival of these unexpected succors, will be read with thirilling interert..

(Cape de Verds,)

January 5, 1833.

We arrived at this point on the last day of December, having left the principal part of the provisions for the Islanders, at Bonavista. We arc now loading with salt for South America, and expect to sail within two or three days. At this Island, and at. Bonavista, there has been less suffering from the protracted famine than at the other Islands. From information received from individuals who have visited, and profess to be well acquainted with the condition of the Islands, the suffering, wretchedness, and desolation, has been beyond conception of those who live in the midst of plenty and prospemy. I am not able to state the whole population of the Islands, from the absence of statistical documents but th«MjStima.te of the number of deaths, from octual^tMrvalion, in 'fell the Islands, wilhin about year, is placed by those bestacqoainted with the circumstances,atbetween 30,000 and 40,000* The items which go to make up this amount in the bill of mortality are as follows: In St. Antonio, among a population of 36,000, 11,000 have died from starvation' alone in

Fogo, 12,000 deaths from the samecausb in Bravo, 7,000 in St. Nicholas, 3,000, and in St. ago, the number is cojpsid^^le, although not stated definitely.

Captain Hays, of the brig Emma, from Philadelphia, with a full cargo of provisions for the suffering Islanders, assused me that the scene of suffering, wretchedness,and desolation at St. Antonia, where he touched long enough to discharge 500 barrels.of provisions, was beyond the power of tongue or pen to describe. The miserable inhabitants looked more like moving skeleton* than living beings—their flesh was gone, their muscles suemed dried up, and they presented tne appearance of only, the naked frame of men, which could scarcely be kept together. The inhabitants had despaired of obtaining relief from any of the ordinary resources, and as no vessel had touched at the island for several months, on accouut of the difficulties and danger resulting from the fact that there is no safe harbor for vessels, a pilot was despatched in a boat, with some half a dozen skeleton beings, to hail the first vessel that could be seen,

and beg them

to stop and srll them something to k§ep then. n.Hve for a few da) longer when the Emma hove in sight, and was hailed, and, ss soon as possible the mournful tale was told,und the entreaty pressed to stop and sell them tomething to eat.—Captain H. replied that he had nothing to sell, but that his vessel was loaded with provision to give atcay and that he had come for the express punpose of affording relief to any of the Islanders who needed the gratuity. They seemed incredulous at first, but when satisfied of the fact they raised their hands in astonishment to Heaven, intimating that he must have been despatched from thence on such an errand of mercy. After landing, Capt. II. soon found from what he saw and heard, that the account of their deplorable suffering condition, had not been overstated. He discharged 500 barrels of provisions, and left them, after receiving every demonstration of gratitude from the sufferers which they were able to give. They even followed him to the water's edge, and there, in attempting to ffive three cfuert wilh all the little energy which they possessed, they made a noise which seemed more like a sepulchral groan, than the voice of the living.

Capt. H. was assured that almost every morning the dying and the dead could be seen in almost every direction from the door of his informant, and {hat but a short time before, a boy was seen cutting a piece of flesh from the carcase of a fellow creature, to lengthen out his own miserable existence, but was found soon after dead, with a piece of flesh in his tfand, having crawled only a few paces fromthe"place where he obtained it.

This case vyat represented only as a tpeeimen of what inay be often witnessed, in its substantial f^atur^s. Bonavista and Mayo have SUITCQM less than tbe other islands, w'hich have prevented us from being eye-wit-

ers. Capt. H. assured me that be relt amply compenfated for all the expense which be had iq^urred in coming out gratuitously to be tbe almoner of the charity of Americans to tbtete distant and desolate islands, in the consciousness of the real benefit which had b$en conferred. Onr own country has not only been first, but alone,'in this work of substantial sjmpatby arid charity. Not a farth ing has been sent by the people of any other nation, as charity which speaks volumes in favor of our citizens. Even the Portuguese nation has left these poor creatures to starve by thousands, when the King derives not a little of his wealth from their toils and suffrages. The Islands opposed at first that the supplies received from our conn try had come from tbe ©evernment of tbe Unfted States and when assured tbat tbe Government had nothing to do with it, tbat it was from the public and private contributions of men, and children, as tbe spontaneous expression of their own feelings of kindness and sympathy, as soon as their suffering condition was tuadfe known—tbey aenaed utterly at a loss to comprehend how it conld bet I have often beard them sajr—

Americans kinder than our own country we have two Kings, btlt tbey send no provisions to keep os from starving they fight one another to see who shall govern they care nothing about us," &c. Tbe raias have begun to fall in tbe Ialande, and vegetation is coming forward rapidly and the hope is eb«ri*hed that something in a few Bontbt may be obtained from (be fruit* of tbe earth,to supply the wants of the people-

TnWSouTn.-Tlie Charleston Mercury, of the 20th ult. announces the receipt of Mr. Clay's Bill for the adjust, ment of the Tariff, and adds "it is not so favorable to the South as we had a right to-demand. The process of relief is too tai dy but we prefer it to the prydosition which, it will be seen, was made by Mr. Drayton in the House, which expressly recognizes the discrimination between protected and unprotected articles."

The Patriot s^ys: "Mr. Clay's bill is likely to please few parties in this country—we hail it, however, with pleasure, as the harbinger of peace and conciliation. We think the principle of the bill unexceptionable. It proposes a gradual and prospective reduction of the Tariff to the revenue wants of the country, so as not to sacrifice the large amount of capital invested in our manufacturing establishments."
