tiiir»-vote

important subjects nied the deliberations ot that honorable assemblage while Mr. C. has crcsuled over its deliberations, it has tren equally divided and of course tiiesc tiu important measures, have been decided ny the casting vote ot this same Vice President. When a hill was before the Senate granting •and to the state of Illinois* to aid or jn making a canal to connect her rivers with the great lakes of the north, the Senators were equally divided in opinion. opportunity was Mr. C. to show his attachment to ihc American System, and hUjriendshipto the West: but he gave/us voice against us. Y?*, let it not be forgotten, that John Calhoun, who now Vksour suffratres !or tin? important ofike. has used the power which it rive's him to blast our brightest no'ies. The srrnnd important measure which he defeated wa9 the woollens hill, vitally important to the /North and West. The Senate bein" equally divided on this measure Mr. C. had another fair opportunity of showing his friendship for the /North but, fixed in his purpose to oppose every measure which tended to the prosperity of the grain-grow-ing and manufacturing slates, he

IVhat a lavorable thrn afforded for

gaye |tjs voice against this me as vuf, ALSO.

And at the last session

of Congress when the Senate was equally divided oa the question whether an appropriation of money for surveys & estimates of roads, earn!*, etc. should bo U'n'"?#4 to sutitp already commenced, Mr. C. gave hig -vote in favor of the limitation. The survey ot the Wabash preparatory to the improvement of its navigation, had not then commenced. and according to the wishes of Mr. C. it 7)?vir cculd hare bejen under the care rt the vieneral Government: and this same gentleman, who has shown tiie most deadly hostility to all our best interest?, now asks us to give him the power for four years more to trample usjunder his feei and it with these elear proofs of his disposition to oppose us to oppose, what we believe, the best interests of our counv, wc give him power, we shall richly deserve to be tread upon as unworiny ot the rights of freemen Let us not deceive uurselves—This is one of the men by whom the South designs to distroy the American System. The votes which I have noticed, ir.aik his opinions as clearly as if ihey were written with a sun-beam and wi'ij you still clothe him with power which he has used

against you? Again I say, be not deceived—the electors which vote fnr Jadcs«n arc pledged to vote for C(i houn—their friends ha,ve united them together—-together they tnust meet their fate and it is for us to decide whether we will support those that support or.support those who Aarpopposed us, and by their con* duct say they will continue Jo do so.

The important day is at hand.— The first Monday in November is to decide the late of this Republic—to1 !rxide whether^ man is capable of selt government—to decide whether the groat principles of civil libei ty halt prevail, or whether all must bow down before the glare of military renown That day must decide whether Ji netica *hall be an exception in tiwc iainily of Republics, or witetner she is involved in that fatal decree th:?t fnai) js incapable of self government that.be cannot

"It *as not lon£ after the meeting of Congress, and I think about the time, or a little after, the news reached us at the city, of General Jack son's journey through this state, and of the dinners given him, &c that T. Moore made to me.in substance the following communication "He stated that he Bad just re ceived a letter from Col M'Afee, in forming him—and I think he said requesting him to inform me—that in the event of Jackson's election to the Presidency, I might be elected to the Senate, and that I would in that case receive the votes of viy friends I was at a loss to perceive how the election of Jackson could bring me so near the Senate! & I asked him how such an event could happen, as no vacancy could occur ftr several y6aMii\ K?

Vjf His answer tvas

—"If Jackson is elected, Col Johnson will receive the appointment of Secretary of War*" I then asked him how it could be so understood? Ho replied, with a significant nod, that in passing through Kentucky, the friends of the General, or the General himself—I am not certain which—had given the intimation to the friends of Col Johnson. "These are the facts in tiie case— facts which I made known to some of my friends immediately afterthe communication was made to me,8t to others with but little reserve since that time And if circumstances should hereafter make it necessary, the foregoing statements, and something more on the same siibject, shall go forth to the world—for in the face of all the world, and of Him that made it, am I willing to depose to these truths: and 1 am not willing to believe that Moore is depraved enough to deny them. If he does, however pai»ful the issue, the world must judge between us and if the decision i9 against me, I will take an appeal, with the most perfect certainty of success, to that unerring tribunal which is beyond the verge of this fleeting existence .Signed,

THOMAS METCALFE.

The following resolutions speak the language of M'Dulfie, of Cooper, of Hamilton, and of others who will come into power under Jackson. What, let me ask, have v»'e to expect from men of such principles a9 these? Are they friends to the American System? And shall

r. vt

befferl during the

we,

the

people of the grain-growing states put these men in power Shall we turn out known friends and fill their places with known enemies? If so we richly deserve to be the slaves of the South.—Randolph has boasted that they have and can rule the north by our ivhite slaves. Depend upon it they are now practising upon this plun.— Look around you fellow-citizens, and see it the leading Jacksonians among us, are not either luke warm friends or open emmies of the taritl"? The following will show the lifiht in which the tariii' is viewed by Englishmen. Consider, yes, consider well before it be too late: PROCEEDINGS IN THEfcOUTH

Fo.usyth, (Geo.) August, 19. At an adjwurncd meeting of the

ftssiiifl of Congres

Dr. A: B. 1*kjd resumed the Chan, md K.

acted as Secre

a y. AnsAi.oM A. CnaI'lT.LL, i.?q from the committee appointed at previous meeting, ofleied a lepoit and resolutions, yrhifh, being separately put, were adopted^ with but one dissenting voicp. 1 [The report, occupying tnrpe or four column-, is too long for insertion. The following are the resolutions:] 1st, Resolved-, That we will ab stain entirely from the use of cotton and woollen goods manufactured in the Northern and Western States. £d fiesolvtd, That we will abstain to the greatest practicable extent, from the use of all other articles of the produce or manufacture of the States favorable to the larifT and that we will give the preference, in every instance, to articles of the manufacture or produce of States opposed to the TarifF." V, 3d Resolved more particularly, that we will not* except in cases ot necessity, purchase the Hogs. Horses, Mules, and Cotton of the Western States, Tennesse* excepted. in cases where we are s.af i-fi-ed that those articles are bona fide Tennesseean in their origin. 4th. Resolve4i That we use homespun for our wearing apparel, and for all domestic' purposes, to., the greatest practicable extent. 5th Resolved. That, in cases where necessity shall require us to use cotton and woollen manufactures, other than homespun, we will give the preference to the FOREIGN o'ver the Northern and Western manufacture 7th, Resolved, That our merchants and traders be requested to tiring among us no cotton or woollen ^oods manufactured in the Northern and Western states. 8th. Resolved, That the neit Legislature be requested to take into "olenin consideration the opp'essions hasped upon us by the Tariff, and he expediency of passing a law or laws by which its ruinous operation may be counteracted.

hi Tariff has produced an eitraurdinary excitement in England and some of the great men in that country, editors and statesmen, ac tually appear to think that we have n* right to regulate our own trade They talk of "frea trade ("and yet will not receive an article from more than half the States! Our bread stuffs would injure thriif landed interests—sa they and we, in return reply, your manufactures injure our landed in terests: 8t we have quite a« much fel low feeling for our farmers and artisans, as you have.for yours. Your* is certainly a 4free trade," but it is altogether on one side!—Yours is a "free trade," to takeonr cash for your produce.jwhile not acent's worth of ours you take in return Your free trade" would break down *11 our manufactures would reduce to poverty our country—while it would scatter wealth in your own From such a "free trade" the tarift"" is in a fair way of delivering us.

There are some English editors, however, which view this subject in its proper light, ^'be "Leeds' Intelligencer" contajns the following: "It is impossible not to feel convinced that the effect of these regulations will be the complete exclusion of all goods on which they are imposed- Jt would also be as idje to deny that great, perhaps vital injury to our trade with the Uni ted States, will be the consequence of this measure and Yorkshire must in particular suffer fearfully- To say the least, ah rm and distress to our woollen manufactures in every branch appear the natural or indeed the necessary concomitants pf th« present Tariff, and wedo sincerely a-nd deeply deplore the. passing of such a law, as it regards the interests of this countrv. The Americans, however, as Jlir.ericans, have done wisely in resolving to submit t9 prment sacrifices, in order to insure future prosperity for their own industry, both landed and manufacturing and perfect independence of foreign surplus

COMMUNICATED.

Mr. Kinney: I noticed some queries in your last paper over the signature ot lEnquirer," relating to the conduct of L. il. Sands, ol Greencastle*, in answer to which I can state that .Sands did get a situation as midshipman for his brother by the influence of-Col. Blake and many have supposed that it placed him under some obligation to return the favor: and it lu9 also been hinted that he thought and caid so too, until the magic power of party cured him of such childish things as honorable conduct. ^.'.e found if corw( ni-' ent to oppose bis f.'i iend to support Col..Boon of Waliens Bill" memory.

The following extract from the "Ariel," printed at Natchez, will

show the estimation in which our wor

thy representative is held abroad,

"In the first District,'the contest seems to have been very animated, and has unexpectedly resulted in the choice of Ratlin* Boon, a friend of Gen. Jackson, over Mr. Blake, the present member by the small majority of 31 votes only.—The manner in which this result was produced, is indeed very aggravating, and probably unprecedented in the annals of electioneering The partiaans of the General, had caused to be distributed at* the most proper places throughout the District, an inflammatory liandbill against Mr. Blake, charging him with very unpopular conduct. On the very eve ot the election', these handbills were extensively circulated—-The district literally inundated with them:—of course, it vas impossible for Mr. Blake, af that late period, to counteract thei effect, and thereby arrest the current of opposition that they produced, ami which*'flowed resistlessly against him Consequently the duil anil comparatively ignorant Katlii! Boon, is returned to Congress, in the place of the present member Thomas 11 1* worth lUake, a gentleman of fine i*l ents. and unblemished moral character. who is an ornament and an hoi or to the District which he repr* scnts in the national councils

12th Nov 1806, to Gov Claiborne of New-Orleans Bun was released on the very day on which the letter was dated, niad no doubt Geu Jackson very soon be.came apprised of it

On the 8th of Dec Gen J. received a further sum from Burr from the 14th to the »L2d, he received and entertained him again at the Hermitage introduced him at a ball (contrary to the wishes of the managers and on the 22d of December fitted him out for his expedition.

And why, (it may be asked,) did he not accompany him not because he was unacquainted with his plans or did not wish him to succeed, but simply because he knew, there was not the most remote prospect of success His letters published by Boyd McNairy, very clearly prove the zeal with which he was engaged iu the cause, while there were hopes of succes. F.arlyin December the rendezvous at Blennerhasset's Is-and, wai broken up, the whole encampment dispersed, and this was the finishing blow to the hopes of the coadjutor Jackson and hence it is, that he remained at the Hermitage.' If Burr had succeeded in collecting the forcc calculated on if he bad been able to have embodied them at the mouth of Cumberland as contempia ted there is not, there can not be a doubt Gen Jackson would have for lowed "t'ojsar and Jiis fortunes That he wax disposed to cn'ti Burr and that he did aid him all in his power. so long as there was a reasonable probability of success, is certain and that he was disposed to betray him when his fortunes became desperate, is

altogether probable That he deceived President Jel'erson by his tv.ock patriotic letter, dated 12th Nov. 1806, tkere is abundant evidence: for at that very time, lie was doing all in his power secretly tc promote the schemes of Burr.
