ONE WORD FOR THE UNION.
TMR DANGER NOT OVER To the good fieofile of the Good Old Do minion No IV. Having abjured as unconstitutional the remedies of nullification and secession, perhaps I may be asked "what then would you advise?" To this I answer, I am no politician, no statesman; I have no pretensions to advise. But as one of the people I would humbly remind my fellow citizens that we are not without safe counsellors in those eventful concerns. Yet I look for counsel less to the living than the dead; less to the
partizan, heated by the present stnte, man
to the retired and philosophic sage; less to men whose minds are fevered by dreams of
ambition, or maddened by the delusion ot
misguided patriotism, than to the experienced statesman, who is withdrawn forever from the agitating warfare of. political con-
ceres. Looting back with the serenity ct conscious virtue upon the drama of a busy
life, and looking forward only to the grave.
he can have no motive of action save tne
impulse of a pure and never-dying love of
countrv. I have already hinted at the foun
tain from which we may draw our lessons of
i always hope; that in the ordinarv course of
"u"'" events, uiuicr a government of the people, the clouds of to-day will be succeeded by the sunshine of to-morrow. We must learn to put up with being occasionally thwarted: we must learn to "bide our time: we ir.ust learn to await the influence ot reason on our countrymen, and the return of the ra of generous feelings, suppressed for a moment by passion, or stifled by self interest. "Ve must," s Mr. Jefferson has wisely said, have patience and long enduf. ance with our brethren while under delusion; give them time for reflection and experience of consequence; and keep ourselves in a situation to profit by the chapter of accidents."

Believe me, fellow citizens, although unanimity would be no certain criterion of the existence of abuses that would justify secession, since we all are too much addicted to fret at ills that none Can cure: yet, i: is pregnant proof, that there is no real oppression, when we see a large proportion of a free and enlightened people, happy and uncomplaining.

tractedthe elevated principles and paternal admonitions of the first and best of men, which our countrymen seem to be rapidly forgetting. Let me now beg leave to refer
you to the profound expositions of the principles of our government, which will be left
as a legacy to his country by the venerable Madion. ' They have been the tex-book of the "'Old Dominion," and will secure for his memory a glory which will not be extinguished, even when those who delight in commotion and revolution, shall have suc
ceeded in burying in ruins the constitution itself. He yet lives to witness the present scene. He yet lires to aid in the interpretation of that instrument he helped to form. He yet lives to renounce and to expose the false glosses which have been put upon that noble effort of his gifted mind. The Rcwrt

found that he cannot understand himself.
You would soon find that cotton and rice
would agree as little with wheat and tobacco, as they now arce with commerce and manufactures. Divide again. Let us stand alone. Would you look for it in this venerable "Old Dominion? Tobacco and wheat would next fall out. The rise in breadstufls, which benefits ne, bears hard on the other.
Alas! mv heart sxkens when I think what would be our ov;n distractions, when once we adopt the notion that a diversity of local

From the Cincinnati Gazette. STATE RIGHTS. The doctrine of nullification and rightful secession, lately broached, and the arguments urged in support of it, have directed
very general attention to the subject, and eliwUed some interesting f xcts concerning it. Governor Flovd, of Virginia, set on foot tlie
project ot hoisting a separate btate nag, m Virginia; but found it would be most prudent to abandon tii attempt. To shelter him from opprobrium, the Richmond IVhiir
