W., have not time nor room TO reply a.
,.oo,h 10 the remarks Of the Charoi'esVhS
,JDo.,s few words must suffice. A dbl
fs,enc. Of opinion exists as 10 what were 'Nr'
J.ffsrson's sentiments on several oon'ro'er'eu
noli,ical subjects; bu, we know that during
t,s .rc life. he recommended and sanctioned
measures, which, followed up by the present
administration, are denounced as heretical by
The school 10 which the Advocate belongs vi
o,r thing, however, we are absolutely certain
He would have irowned Indignantly upon the
first dawnng Of an attcmptto ALLEVIATE one por'
,ion of the Union from another, and would
have resisted aye resisted with all the mighty en-
ergies Of mis- mind, the nefarious proJec: OF an
organized and determined opposition TO :he
laws ofthe land. We know thus, because eve>
ry.acrion Of his life, almost every word he ut
tered, proved him 10 have been 4 most firm X
devoted friend to the Union of the States. His
noble and patriotic principles always prompt
.d him to b. on the side of his country. In
addition to the surprise expressed on another
occasion, that a whisper Of diaunion should be
heard from the grave Of Jefferson we may now
a,L-who would have thought that Jefierson's
sentiments would ever have been appealed to
10 Justify TREASON and rebellion!
The Advocate appears 10 have moderated
considerably since we last saw 1t. awe have
not" say the editors, "ads oea'ed the call OF this
southern Congress" Then pray gentlemen,
what did you do? From your own confession
il appears you,labored zealously to show that II
was "FAIR, CONSTITUTIONAL AND PROPER ana
"yindica,ed il from the OBJECTIONS that were
ur,ed Against it," and still you did not adVo'

sure this sign of repentance, This return 10
some hine iiki American ie,i ling. Nhen one
is bet, aged into an error, either through warmth
Of feeling, or mistaken Judgment, he suffers
nothing by speedy undong OF what he has
done.
For ourselves, we believe, and we think up
on examnation, the opinion viii be found COR
rect, that this Southern Congress as revoiu-
tionary and dIsorsanizing scheme exceeds the
Hartford Convention, and is more deserving the
execra,iou Of he American People, Ana
since he Advocate has gone SO Tar ne,o as Vir'
tua,ly to doubt its expcdiency, we hope, that II
ever it should b. ,ion,!y intended to carry il

The first thing that ought be done in fair Ir.u,nen
'a;ion is to define the thing in contest. The writer
fhInks that Gov. Giles has not defined jure divine

II better suited the purpose Of hi; exceeucy 10 leave
the term underlined. il may be, however, that the
governor thinks, that the Supreme Being has no
superIntendancc OF The political concerns of men He
IS OF the opinion, that il is only mans individual
capacity that he has to render account TO his Su.
preme Judge. This, as the writer thinks, is either
paPaole nooscnce or 1t is denial, that any mhn in
any capacity TO render any account to God for bis
thoughts dispositions and actions. There is no doubt
IN the writer's mind, that this last Tue cordial sent

But the writer takes it for granted that it is The
general sentiment of the people of Virginia. whatever
MIR Giles may think Of il, that the Bible is tie word

can derive true definition of lure divine clains j.
