Mr.. LOUyvDEs

We have received from Charleston n COPY
(printed OH letter paper of the resolutions
adopted at COlumbia.-In addition TO these,
we are informed by the Charleston City Ga
zette;
"lst. That there were One Hundred and Ftreirs
members OF the Legislature present-2I That
fJty eight voted for nomination, mo matter whe-
Their MIR Jowndes or Mr.. CaIhoun) and Finn Joar
against any DOminatiOu.-J. That the meeting linen
proceeded to name cdi,diddte; aud WILLIAM
LowNDEs, was unanimously chosen"
The Charleston Courier states, that " no
proposition connected with Mr.. CALHoyy
was submitted to the meetiBg-nor is it be-
llevcd, that that gentleman contemplates being
a candidate for the Presidency."-.If we NAV
put trust however, in Washington writer in
the Franklin Gazette, Mr.. e.. is thought ofbv
some of his friends, it he does not think of
himscli--that he is gaining ground at the city
and that he has claims upon the vote Of
Pennsylvania, from being a descendant OF that
respectable state. 1t will be well for him il
they do not trace one drop of Virginia blood
in his yeins.-A correspondent Of the n. Y
Commercial Advertiser, goes farther and af-
firms that some OF Mr.. Us. friends at Wash
IngtoD, have held small meeting on the 29;h
and agreed to support his claims to the Pre-
| sidency. The South Carolina delegation adds
the writer were tire aggregate of the meet
iDg.-Thus it would seem Chat we have differ
eDt signs from different quarters. IN Column

THE MEMORIAL,

OF THE CITIZENS OF THE BoRoUGu Of
NORFOLK TO TBF CONGRESS OF THE UNI
TED STATES, &c.
To The Honorable Tie Senate and House of Rep
resenta!ires Of the United States
The Memorial of the Citizens of the b.
rough of Norfolk respectfully represents
Forsome time after the last peace with Great
Britain. very profitable commerce was car
ried on with the British colonies, in British
vessels from this port. The productions of
this district indeed, and Of some parts of North
Carollna and of our own state, which COM
anOniy centre here, such as timber, lumber
corn, flour and tobacco, are the very articles
which are most wanting for the supply of
those colonies and naturally drew their yes
sells TO our harbor. This trade accordingly
furnished employment and the means of Iiy-
ing To many OF our citizens, farmers, mer-
Nhants, dealers in timber and lumber, and
Others; ana contributed, in various ways, to
promote the prosperity Of the district and
country. The articles imported, such as rum, su-
gar and molasSes, not only supplied our own
wants, but furnished us with new materials of
export for foreign markets. The sale of our
produce also brought specie into tire country,
for the balance Of trade was in our favor,) and
gave US the means of remittance in coin, or
bills torthC purchase of manufactures abroad
AT the same time, the duties on tonnage and
imports drew revenue into the Treasury, and
thus virtually taxed foreigners for the benefit
Of our own nation. 1t may be added, that
this trade was constantly increasing and the
completion of the canal, and the improve
ment of the Roanoke, now about to be effect
cd, promised still further to extend its profits
In this state of things an Act ofCongress was
passed on the 18th of April, 818, entitled Gan
Act concerning Navigation" which prohibited
all commercial intercourse with the colonies Of
Great Britain, in vessels Of that nation, so long
AS her laws should continue to forbid it in our
own. And some time afterwards, another
act was passed, on the 18th Of May, / $50, en-
titled An Act supplementary to an act emit
tied an act concerning navigation" which was
designed to enforce and secure the policy fthc

and with honest desires to promote the true
interests uf our country. But experience,

feet - entirely different. In this district, al
least, It IS both seen and felt, (and has been
