 T VI. We would advise the conhdenual iflenos of Mir Calhoun in South Carolina to keep cool Tn ths controversy, and to abstain from abuse ot MT Ifa" ford's friends in Georgia during the Presidential can yass of 1895. We willing to forget tho consp-. cuous part taken by MT Calhoun, and his friends Tn South Carolina, at that period. We are wilhngto forget the reports of Mir Calhoun to Congress against the demands of Georgia for the fultilment of the conditions of the compact of l502. We are more over willing forget all the injuries Georgla has re- ceived at the hands of Mir Calhoun for in the pre- sent crisis of affairs the Southern States should be united and act in concert But the personal friends Of Mir Calhoun, have higher respect for him than for republican principles the welfare of the United States the integrity of the federal constitution, and the preservation of the Union we shall not be back ward in repelling their attacks upon Georga, and n defending the honor and reputation oithe State, no'c, as we did when the friends of Mir Calhoun and him self at their head, with the friends of MT Clay and Mir Adams all united, were pouring in bfoadslde ai4 ter broadside upon Georgia, and her candidate for the Presidency.
 q VII If the friends of MT Calhoun intend to bring him out as canaidate for the Presidency, let them do it at once. If they intend to come out IL ganst Georgia because 1t happens that Mir Craw ford is of her citizens, and because large ma
 olity as we believe of those citizens will not support Alr Calhoun for any office, let him come out at once. To be candid, we must say, that we have looked up- Gn certain South Carolna politicians, with suspl- eous eyes When Georgia was contending for her rights; when she was threatened with the military force of the United States. South Carolina chimed in with certain leaders in the North in abusing our citizens and our Chief Magistrate. Instead of ex- tending helping hand to us, as she was bound to do, being so near q neighbor, certain leaders in Co lumbia, during the session ofthe Legislature, met in eonclave, and debated the question, whether Noah, then Editor of the National Advocate, should not be mobbed, tarred and feaihered. And why Because he had supported the pretensons ofa citi- zen oI Georgia to the Presidency. Why was Judge Smith turned out, and Mir Hayne elected in his place? Because he was supporter of State rights, against laudlnarian principles, and friendly to Georgia After all this the South Carolina leaders, when they found that Georgia had come ont vctor- ous inner contest with the federal government aban doned their former hostile attitude against Troup and Georga politics, became warm admirers of state rights, and took the lead in the support of the principles which Georgia consistently and stead lastly has been supporting since the year l789. We hailed the change in South Carolina as the harbin ger of bettee feelings and union among the Sout- ern States. We were forgetting past offences and past nsults under the firm impression that the South Carolina leaders were sincere Are they sincere I Should Georgia be again in difficulties would not South Carolina again leave her in the urch? Let South Carolina reflect on the past, and beware how she acts in the present crisis of our afairs Geor gia will never take stand against the Federal Go- yernment, but when 1t shall be sanctioned by the plain expression of the Federal Constitution, and by the sovereign rights and powers she reserved to her self when she entered into the Union. So far she has been right in every stand she has aken and the stand she took against the assumption of the federal court of an unconstitutional power has been lately sanctonedby the decision of that court. Can South Carolina say as much in her opposition to the Fede- raj Government?
 II VIII. Strange as it may appear, yet no less is true that in the north in the vest and in the souh except in South Carolina, the Adams, Clay and Webster men, with all the anti nullifiers are taking part for Mir Calhoun against the administration Ihe Clay papers. such as the National Journal, Ma tional lntelligencer, Boston Courier, and others, have changed their tone when speaking of Duff Green, the mouth-piece of Mir Calhoun. But what is more strange still, is, that in South Carolina it is quite the reverse. The opponents fthe admnistra- ton in this State, take part against MT Calhoun We may stranger things than these, before Ge- neral Jackson terminates his second term of office. Should regiment of political Proteuses be needed, a sufficient number would certainly be found at this time in the U S., without much trouble.
 TX. It is due to justice and to Mir Crawford, to give publicity to the following extract of aetter from Mir Cobb, written in May 1893. At the time that Mir Calhoun and his confidential friends were poson- ing the public mind with misrepresenations, speeding the part taken by MT Crawford ill the ca binot, and his friends in Congress, it asserted that Mir Crawford urged MT Cobb and Gen. Lacock, but more particularly the former, to adopt the plan tley did for bringing the subject the Seminole before Congress, for insisting the culpability Of Gen. Jackson, and for censuring hir conduct in the most solemn manner. Whatever Mir Cobb has said may be relied upon. The letter from which this tract is made, was written with freedom, and with out any motive for concealmentor misrepresentation.
 EXTRACT.
 "You do justice both to Mir Crawford and myself in saying that MT Crawford disappro1odofthe course which felt it my duty to the constitution to pursue on the Seminole war. He did pursuade me not 10 move any thing on the subject, and endeavored to convince me that there was necessity part of our conversation occurred in the presence of John Holmes, of Maine who no doubt will remember if. At another interview between ourselves Nr Craw- ford again pursuaded me not 10 be the leading mo: of the sub bec urging only his former reasons, but stating expressly his fears that, from the friend ship existing between Us, my conduct would be charged to have been dictated by him. I replied, that should be sorry if my conduct should do him any injury, but that l must be permitted to pursue that course which my conscience prescribed; espe- cially as firmly believed that the constitution had been violated in the most flagrantmanner Accord ingiy did move the resolutions on the subject, to be found in the journal of the House of Representa- lives "-Gcorgia JoWrmat.
