Mr.. HENRY ARTHUR. a candidate to represent
Lexington District in the next Legislature has,
through the columns of the Columbia State ia
.e,te. giyen the public his opinion of State
Rights. of which he processes himself an ardent
advocate. He declares that he has 10 doubt OF
the power of the State in convention TO oppose 4
barrier to any law of Congress which the state
may deem unconstitutional; and eventually to
compel the General Government to rccedc with
in what the State may consider its constitutional
limits. Mr. ARTHUR having claimed this power
for South Carolina, II is presumed he would grant
it to each and every other State in the Union.-
If so. what would he say if the little State of Della
ware, with her population of 10000 white inha-
bitants, Ia population less than that of the city
of Baltimorel should undertake to nullify any
law of Congress which every other State of the
Union. with an aggregate population of upwards
of II $40, 900 souls, might have recommended or
sanctioned. Would he grant to one person who
resides in the State of Delaware, the same pow
err IN the government that one hundred and ninety
nine persons in the other States possess? We
cannot believe he would; and yet the right he
claims for State would certainly give such pow
er, as by calculation he will find, that the white
population of the State of Delaware,is only equal
to the one hundred and ainty-ninh part OF the
population of the other States.-CharleSfon Coz.
