Erawior, Es'i. Chairman---the following Rrsoiu,i-
ans, among Others, were adopted---beg preceded
by an able Preamble 80.
Resolved That we will hereafter insist on our
right 10 an equal participation OF the benefits arising
out ofthc disbursements OF the National Treus,,rc
Itesoircd, That we view with decided disapproba-
tion all attempts Of part of the community tn
procure, for its owncSclusive benefit, the adoption
by our government OF a ystem of commercial nro
hibition aud restriction.
Itesotrcd, That to render all such attempts nuea-
tory, far possible, will rely on our own in
dvdual resources for the Production of all such ar
tlcci as are necessary for our domc tic consunpti-
on; and when it becomes indispensable that we
should purchase of others, will, far as IL may
be IN our power, give decided preference To the
foreign fabric, choosing to pay the excess of price
INTO the national treasury, rather than ato the pock-
a of the manufacturing capitalist.

ell, which. Is now tho law of the land as intended
for the increase OF the revenue but even ndnIttins
that such will be its eject, consider il ht hly iu-
juieious and inexpedient, since il imposes on us
faxas which arc unequal in their operations which
wc are not able conveniently to paw, and which tho
necessities OF the government do not at present re-

xtesotted, That we recommend to the consi,lera-
tl0n OF our next Legislature, the adoption of such
measures to- coun'ervai the effects of the new tariff
as may DO deemed constitutional and expedient
fecsotea, That our fellew-citizeus of The South

us in those views.
n writer in the Columbia Telescope saws, tina,
MIR. Adams could have arrested the Tariff Bill be-
fare the last Congress il he had cosc., it, How Mr.
Wiseacre! Was he to inu gue privately with MEM
hers OF Congress, rs Secretary Of State unasked
Tor, to send formal rcnonstrancc against its pas
sage! What would the Congress of the u States
i,avc said to ono ofthe government sending in Re.
ports that were not dcmondcd and attempting TO di-
rect ud control them in the discharge Of their dur
Tmpeacn and cashierns would have heen the
Feast punishment inflicted. The very same sense
less cry was raise1 against Mr.. Adams after and
penaisgshe Missouri question. Many e-alcu. GER
seinen offended his silence ard the tiis..;f-
ed discharge Of his duty, and his retaining to med
Gle with the business of Congress- was construed in.
20 enmty to the rights of Missouri! Such is the in.
Neteracy of Mr.. Adams onencs, and such the rec
dude of hs course, that for lack of nod to satisfy
aheir malignity, they absolutely convert his most
laudable actions, by their iesh alchemy, into of
fences.
THE HOLY ALLIANCE & THE GREEKS.
We pabiish very interesting document pur-
porting to be a Russian state paper, proposing a
plan for the pacihcation Of Greece. If this pa
per be genuine, OF which the baltimore Patriot
expresses some doubt, the war in Greece may
be considered at an end, and peace either
made or 10 be made, on the basis proposed by
the Emperor alexander, in the name of the
Triple Alliance. The pleasure of the Allied
Sovereigns will of course be received as COM
mands-and thus the gallant Greeks, after su.-
tanning three ariuons campaigns, will be reduc-
ed to the modification of submitting to modified
slavery, when the prize for which they have so
nobiy commended, perfect liberty, is cenpIeteiy
within their grasp. At no time since il,c con-
test commenced, has the cause of Greece worn
so promising an aspect-union restored among
Observation-Disclosures succeeding to their first
irregular cfforts-thc Islands aud the Morea in
their possessioa--their fleets sailing in triumph
thru every sea- & to the gates OF Sonstantinoplc;
the Porte conyulsed with intestine feuds, and
tottering in its own weakness-the disasters nj
Cairo, and the war between England and AL
giers, cutting off all hope of succour from E.
gypt or Barbary-and their efforts, stimulated
by repeated successes, by the presence of able
officers, and by the aid cheerings and admirati-
on of a sympathising world, two more campaigns
would have crowned them with success, and
planted the standard Of Christ and Freedom i'm
triumph on the mosques of the Imperial City. It
IS at this time that the accurscd despots of Eu-
rope, who iill witnessed with criminal indiffer-
ence the incipicnt struggles of the Greeks,
when their assistance is no longer asked or
needed, interfere to defeat their triumph and RI
vet their letters. The curse of God and all his
Saints, light on their heads. >.
The interference of Russia between the
Turks and Greeks, is a continuation of the
same principle of domestic interference, which,
ovcrthrew in succession; the Revolutionists Of
Naples anJ Spain, and which, is even now, me-
ditatins To reclaim to Spaia her revolted Ame-
ricaa Colonies. Founled on the catastrophe
OF the Fre''cl revolution, and ceme,itcd by the
fears of the aonarchs, this alliance can neither
be opposed or euded with success. No force
can resist its innumerabIe armies, and scarcely
any virtue its corriptng gold. As long as Il
nxiats, {and what is TO destroy t?) we may bid
pjieu ~ Tie hopes of European regeneration.
