The SECOND SESSION OF the 2lst Congress,
will commence at W a,hington on Monday next.
md az both bodies are completely organized,
the last M ssage Of one of the ablesl and best
Of men, wall, in all probability, be communi-
Gated The same day. Perhaps there never was
a time, since the adoption Of the Constitution,
that more anxiety was felt, than at the present
moment by the people at large. to ascertain
what will be the course of conduct adopted by
the new rulers, when they assume the reins OF
government. On the 4th of March, our gov
eminent, now for the first time. is TO pass into
the hands of a man, who possesses but few Of
the qualifications to discharge it's important
functions. and for the first time will the import
ant powers vested in the Executive, in a great
degree. be exercised by the subordinate agents
Of that power.
The new Preside1t will find himself surround
cd BY a Lost Of ofics seekers, who will urge
their claims with the greatest Industry, and
swear eternal friendship to him and his Admin
i~stration. No, more than one to fifty of these
hungry expectan,s can be graiifed, and it will
then remain 10 he seen how long those who are
disappointed, will support the new order Of
things. Gen. Jackson will probably adopt NJ
hall way course Of policy IN selecting the off
GERS TO be appointed. He willie either make one
general sweep. or he will re-appoint those who
are faithful aud tried servants Of the public
If he adopts the first, he will be sure to
create a great and powerful opposition to
his Administration, from those who have aid
ed his election with the hope of reward. II
he adopts the latter and gives appointments TO
those who are the most deserving, without re-
gard to friends or foes, he will please none
Of his present friends, or at least but few Of
them,- and in either result, those who now
compose the Jackson party, will be found
a~rraying themselves under a new leader, and
opposing the administration. Whatever course
tho new President p%ursues. it is utterly impos-
sible TO keep his partizans united. They have
assisted in elevating him with the hope Of re-
ward, and if they cannot obtain that reward,
they will desert him and again take the field.
The friends of Mr.. Adams in and out of Con-
gress, and Of the American System, have a
plain course to pursue, and that is, to give an
efficient and honorable supper, to the %constitu-
tional government Of tho country. and to remain
silent spectators Of the quarrels and chickering's
Of the Jacksonians, and at a proper time, If it
n deemed expedient. select a candidate as a
successor to Gen Jackson, who will unite the
feelings Of the nation at large, and use all fair

sWhsi sihss earthly mssivs could those two
meetings have been holden for. consis,en' with
probability aud resso,l II appears I ON Mr..
De statement. that M. Hamilton snnde no So
cret Of his Vows on the subject. nor does h.
deny that other members made similar express
ions. even ~ far as la plan the mode Of their
defence after q secession OF their state, against
the troops ofNtw England. "Ths two meetings
we're not conducted according 10 the forms Of q
deIiberativs body" (says Mr.. D. sit sometimes
occurring that while one was speaking. others
we're carrying on conversations together" Mr..
Mitchell therefore, 10 charged with nnsfepre-
sen'ation, Because he made use Of the express
ion proposition" in room of conversation"
and this in substance. constitutes all the differ
ence between his statement and that Of Mr..
Drayton, excepting that Mr.. d.. ibid not hear"
all that Mr.. M. did in these two meetings,
where all we're talking at once.
Now let us see what Was the consequence
OF these two meetings where all the delegation
Of -ouih Carolina were at considerable trouble
to assemble, to pass n vote ''tlat they should
make no attempts TO increase the excitement
which it was anticipated the provisions Of the
law would OCCASION" A meeting was 10 be
holden at Columbia at the CONNIE ncemsnt Of
the session Of the legislature, though before
the breaking up of these recent sessions at
Washington, it was agreed that it should not
be tinding on any members 10 be present.
Our readers we'll remember that a meeting vas
holden there in pursuance Of this resolution,
where this same delegation. instead Of atten'p-
ting 10 ulIay the existing excitement were bus
lily employed in adding fuel to tho fame, by
out threats Of q dissolution Of tho IN
ion. There the councils of these brave men
were no longer kept a secret, but "%treason
abroad in open day"
We believe it utterly useless for Mr.. Hayne
or any one else 10 attempt by evasion and mis-
representation 10 conceal from the eyes of the
public the iraitorous attempt made by,at least,
a part Of the South Carolina Representatives TO
and destroy the Federal Constitution.
No one will believe that u single individual Of
delegation would be induced TO publish a
foul falsehood respecting the rest, when he
know he should without fail be exposed
TO immediate detection. The story is too
much in accordance with their subsequent con-
duct, for a moment to adnit Of doubt.

ANTI-AUcTIoN MEETING.-A meeting of
those who are opposed to the Auction System,
was held at the Mechanics Hall on Saturday
evening last. In consequence Of the incle-
mency Of the weather, but few attended,
ZAcHARIAH ALLEN, Esq. acted as Chair
man. and .amasa Manton, Esq. as Secretary.
After the meeting was opened. it was voted
that Charles Potter, z. Allen, and Cornelius
G.. Fenner. be a committee to draft ~resolu-
tions on the subject of the evils arising from
the present system Of auction sales, as carried
on in the large cities Of our country, %particu-
larly New York.
This committee reported the following reso-
lutions. which were unanimously adopted:
Where's here exists in the United State, a system Of suc-
ton sales, which is carried 10 an extent unprec Ieuted in the
history Of a commercial natio a system which has nearly

TO European manufacturers 10 avail Themselves Of the facilities
Of making forced sale and sacrifices Of their products in a re-
mote market. for relief from pecuniary embarrassment which
they would not make in their own market. under the inspec-
ton Of vigiant creditors; afording at the same time, the most
alluring facilities for frauds upon our revenue laws, and for
frandulent Bankruptcies. and fraught with numerous other de-
moral'zing evils, q system. finally, originating in a commercial
monopoly in cert'in States, and made subservient to purposes
Of taxation upon citizens Of adjacent States-thcreiore
Resolved, That in the opinion of This meeting the system Of
auction sales, as conducted in the United States, and particu-
larly in the city Of New York, is injurious 10 the best CONNER
ciaI interests OF the country.
Resolrsd, That the ~inlvilual, composing this meeting will
unite and cooperate with the citizens Of New York and Of
oher States, in a memorial 10 Cong es for a red, ess Of this

Since the success Of General Jackson, the
Nations only hope is in that incorruptible pa
triot and statesman, HENRY CLAY. In his
fearless spirit-in his dauntless soul, the ma
ton has a defence entirely impregnable 10 tho
ASA ults of the enemies Of human liberty
Proceeding from among the people-they have
claims on his protection that they cannot ask
at the hands Of any other man in this nation .
To him, then we look as the bulwark which is
to preserve us from misru!e and despotism.-

~ For the last two years we have been
threatened with a division Of the Union from
the Jackson leaders in Georgia and South Ca
rolina, and fifty thousand bayonets." It was
cxultingly said, were TO be presented to the
breasts Of the citizens Of our beloved country
in case Of the defeat Of the Military Chiefiain
in the Presidential election. A meeting was
~solemnly holden last winter by the delegations
Of these two States at Washington, for the
purpose Of efecting this object, as appears by
the statement Of Mr.. Mitchell, and was brok-
en- up by the influence Of Mr.. Drayton, who
opposed the unnatural and unconstitutional
measure. TIE Jaeksonians have now succeed
ed in their attempt Of electing the General,
and Il remains for them to finish the work they
have begun. That the people may expect
SOM violent attack OR their liberties and their
Constitution, will not be doubted by any man
of reason, who looks at the present complex
ion Of affairs. The crisis is indeed awful but
we hope and believe that New England will
stand by the Union with the same spirit and
f~rrnness which chara cterized her conduct IN
achieving tho freedom Of her country. To her
the world has attributed the execution Of that
great achievement. while nearly half of the
Middle and Southern sections were opposed to
her project. Strange as it may seem, we find.
more than a half century after the same divis-
ion, the same disposition to thwart the poli:i-
cal views Of New England.
Notwithstanding the success. Of General
Jackson, we know of none in the ranks Of
those who have opposed him. who arc willing
to set an hostile foot on the present Confede-
racy, no viewer much they are disappointed in
the result. We believe that Aaron Burr was
the first who projected it, and the clouds Of
deep suspicion still hang dark around the con-
duct of Jackson in that mysterious affair.

GOVERNOR FENNER.-It now seems to be
a matter of dispute, whether the present Chief
Magistrate Of this State has been a friend or
an opponent Of Mr.. Adams. We have receiv.
ed a communication from a gentleman, whose
standing in society, and whose knowledge of
the feelings and sentiments Of the leading men
ofthe State, entitle what he says to consdera-
ton, in which he denies positively that his Ex-
cellency is now. or ever was a political friend of
Mr.. A. or that he ever advocated his ~e'elec-
ton. OF the merits OF the question now pend.
ing between the disputants, we are unable to
say which is correct. 1t has always been our
opinion, that Governor Fenner was opposed
to Mr.. Adams reelection, and that he would
prefer the election of some other man. That
Governor Fenner has rendered to Mr.. Adams
the common civilities and courtesies due TO his
station as Chief Magistrate of tho Nation. no
one will deny-but thathe ever did, either d.
rectIy or indirectly, advocate his reelection.
we cannot, from our knowledge Of his feelings,
feel satisfied to admit.
We are not the advocates Of Governor Fem
ner, or his political opinions. We have always
considered him opposed to US in politics, both
National and State, and have always treated
him as such and we can sec no reason al
this time to doubt that such has been the case.
But still. If il can be proved tina, his Excsllen.
cy has been q friend and supporter Of Mr.. Ad.
ans reelection, we are willing te admit tina,
such is the fact, and to correct our error.
