 Let us lay upon ourselves the injunction, which God through Moses laid on the Is- raelites.
 ''And thou shall gather dn the spOiIs cf tt into the midst of the streets thereCE and ShGn burn Scith fire the city and GH the spOI therecf - IND THERE SHALL CLEAvE NOU6HT OF THE CURSED THING TO THINE HAND."
 Let us govern ourselves by the advice of the apostle:
 "IOuch not, tdste not, haEdIs not, cf the un- cIedn thing, tctich is theirs"
 And for this purpose we would recommend that e Congress assemble from GU the States orPOSed 10 the protecting tarif, in order to ad- wise and recommend to the different legisla- lures and people, such measures consistent with the constitution, as may seem best cal culated to protect them from the operations of the tariff bill and preUent the introduction aud uSe of the toriffed articles in their respec- tiUe states"
 The GeOrgia Journal, after variety of ." high pressure" statements, after the man. nersof MT. Cambreleng. says:-
 These then, are the blessings of the A merican system" in only one particular branch of it.-Well might Col. Hayne say of it, that, :" it would grind our people to the dust :"-and Mir. McDuffie that it is "an o. bominabLe scheme of legatised piander"--''a stapendous scheme of imposture and delusion'' and with equal proprety did MT. Hamil- guage.

 IS the clearly ascertained |" authentic sense of an irresistible pysical & moral destiny,we con-. sIder you are cOercing us to inquire, wheth- CT we can afford to belong to "a confederacy m which severe restrictions, tending to an ul-l innate prohibition of foreign commerce, is it's established policy! That, Whatever may be our religious veneration for the union, you are compelling us to ask ourselves when you strike at our bread, to which we owe the highest obligation, the law of God, the law of nature, the law of necessity, or that of artificial and political associations? 2, We tell you that we love this union; that we have sacrificed not little to it, and that nothing but your injustice and unkindness can drive us out of it; that we will bear, and have borne for it's honor and security, more than our share of it's burdens that with scarcely single pecuniary interest which was viola ted by the mother country, we were the first to send our sympathy, and to pledge our lives and fortunes, in the quarrel of that then Roman colony, where the cradle of the rev -4 oIution was first rocked; that m our second contest for seven years the whole industry of our statr was palsied by a war, and restric- tions worse than war. in which we had not even remote local concern. We could bear all this, because our tribute was paid to the real honor and solid independence of the country, not to cupidity wearing the mask of patriotism" %
 iNs Columbia IS. O. Telescope, contains an article signed "Molo" probably the pro- duction of Dr.. Cooper, which has the fol- lowing admirable scheme of operation:
 "Let the Legislatures of Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, and Ala bama, prohibit the introduction of horses. mules, hogs, beef, cattle, bacon, and bagging, and what advantage will Ohio. Kentuckv. Tennessee, and Indianne, derive from the ta- riff bill commensurate with the loss of our market for their surplus of such articles Let us prohibit the introduction of whiskey. -four. beer, cheese. &c. and how will Neac- York and Pennsylvania be compensated by the tariff, for the loss of our custom? and these last states would he more deeply affected, should the southern states lay municipal tax, a. mounting to prohibition, on all stock in trade consisting of goods, wares or merchandise, the produce of those states. Let us not be told that such prohibitions cannot be made.-| Most of the states have, at some time, pro- hibited the introduction of slaves under se- were penalties; and many of the same states have even stopped the transit of such prop erty. A very slight alteration in our law regulating pedlars, would effectually control the horse, hog, mule, cattle, bagging, and bacon trade of the west. Should some such measures as we have proposed, be adopted by the states of Virginia. North Carolina, Georgia, and Alabama, and other states fa- vorable to free trade and state rights, we have no doubt but New York, Pennsylyia, Ohio. Kentucky, Tennessee, and Indiana, would find it to their interest to procure the repeal of municipal prohibitions, by repeal of all protecting duties laid by congress-and we kno,O that they ,oiN do ,ohat their interest dictates. That those measures may be effec- tual, it is important that the states concerned should act in concert, and mutually support each other and this can be accomplished by the assembling of an 0nti-tarif congress; & our interest imperiousIy demands that the plan should be immediately carrIed into ef- feet. Such an assembly will. no doubt, bel composed of men whose character, wisdom and firmness while they give weight tO thpir
