Anti Tarif Meeting.-Pursuant to public notice, meeting of sundry citizens of the county of adj son was held at the Town Hall in Huntsville, on Monday the 9th instant, for the purpose of consider ing the proprety of sending Delegates to the Anti Tariff Convention to be held in Philadelphia on the Both inst. Dr THOMAS FEARN was called to the Chair, and JAMES J. PLEAsANTs appointed Secreta- ". The Chairman having stated the object of the meeting, the following resolutions were offered and unanimously adopted:
 l. ResolUed, as the opinion of this meeting That the present Tariff of the United States is unjust in- expedient and oppressive in its operations: one branch of industry is depressed, that another may prosper-one portion of the community is injured, that another may be aggrandized. Such law, pro- ducing such an effect is inconsistent with the genius of government organized and established for the general good fr
 ?. ResoLued That the convention of Delegates proposed to be held al Philadelphia the Both inst. is salutary, peaceable and constitutional mode of obtaining repeal of an oppressive law: That, by presenting undeniable facts and unanswerable ar- guments to the Congress of the United States that body may yet be convinced that the grievances planed of are too heavy to be borne and ought not to be imposed d;-And by repeal or modification of the obnoxious Tariff, they may allay the excitement which has been produced, and restore harmony throughout the country.
 3. Resolued. That F. J. Lavert, Samuel Chap man and Le Roy Pope, Jr. be appointed Delegates to meet said Convention, to represent the views and feelings of this portion of our country the subject of the Tariff.
 A. Resolued, That it is the opinion of this meeting that any modification or repeal of the Tariff laws ought to be made with strict reference to those n- terests connected with. manufactures, which have sprung up immediately under the laws of Congress of 1894 and 1928. That it would be bad faith in our Federal government to sacrifice those interests by an immediate and total repeal of those laws

 This meeting having viewed with anxiety and alarm the unequal and oppressive effect of the exist ing Tariff Laws-and being unwilling to recognize in the Congress of the United States Constitution al Right pass such laws for the protection of Do mestc MaDufactures-and believing that this false named American System," is not only burthen upon the of the People, but ruinous to the prosperity and independence ofo trade, and utterly uncalled for by the exgences of the Government as Revenue law-and inasmuch as we are urged to pursue every constitutional means to obtain repeal, Therefore,
 Res0lUed, That we concur with the Anti-Tariff and Free Trade Party in Philadelphia, in the neces- sity of organizing Conventon,t to meet at that place on the Both September next, for the purpose of a. dopting such measures as will tend to secure our country from the fatal results of Tariff of protect ing duties.

At meeting of the friends of Free Trade, held at Haynevie, L0wndes county, on Monday, 5th ln- sant to appoint Delegates to represent the District in the Convention to assemble at Philadelphia, on the Both instant, on motion of General Thomas E.

 Resolred, That this meeting concur with the Free Trade Party in Philadelphia, in the necessity of or ganizing Convention to meet in that place. on the 3th of the present month"; for the purpose of adopt ing such measures of peaceable character, will tend to secure our country from the fatal results of Tariff of protecting duties
 Resolped That we view with feelings of the high est approbation the zeal ardo and promptness with which the Ant-Tariff party of both the Northern and Southern States have assembled together for the purpose of appointing Delegates to meet in Convention, with view to procure the repeal of the present highly oppressive, unconstitutional and unjust system of impOst duties.
 Resolred, That we believe the time has arrived when every friend of our free institutions, and every lover of the peace harmony and perpetuity of the Union, should employ all the means in his power in arrest the progress of system which is calcuat
 ed by it's expressions to drive to the last extremity that portion of the people of the Union who are en- gagged in Agricultural and commercial pursuits.

 The Government, it is said, has offered a bounty in money of ten dollars per head for each man, wo- man and child, who may prefer to go in their own way, without further aid from the Government, than ferrages and provision, when passing depots paya- bic after they arrive in their country. It is be- leved that most of those who possess the means of removing themselves will embrace this offer.

PROPOSALS For publishing Weekly Newspaper at cahawbs, Alabama
 TO BE ENTITLED GDf Aldbdma 1RfuutIfran.

ME editors, while they regard the pros- A pectnS ot newspaper as its constitu- ton and text, esteem it unnecessary to pre- sent to the public more than the prominent doctrines which will characterize their course in the conduct of the Press they design estab- fishing; and are willing to risk its prosperity with the estimation the people bestow upon their value.
 Believing that national unfairness, and po- litical injustice and oppression, whenever they may arise, send down into society disturb ing influence, and restrain the dispositions of enlightened man to oproper life, the editors will consider it their duty to advocate principle of equity in politics, and expose whatever seems to them unfriendly to common welfare. However unpleasant it is to participate in public discussions, where design too often per- verts the reality of meaSures, and reviles the harmless and amable characters of men, we find our privilege and motive in doing so, in the intention of Press, and in an endeavor, which we will use, to avert the influence and danger of popular error and prejudice.
 While principles of policy, calculated to protect the advantages of, and produce ge- neral good to our country, are maintained, the REPUBLICAN will be found among the supporters of ANDREW JACKSON for re-elec- tion to the Presidency of the United States We can see no cause, among the bitter slan- ders, and venal bickerings of demagogues to forsake him for another: Nor will we, while he performs his duty, and we remember the debt of gratitude the American people owe l him, turn against the old patriot who pre- served, when expressions and dangers were invading us, the blessings of that liberty which the immortal and ever venerated Washington procured for us.
 @ They can but, with the many of the age, view the improvement of mankind in Ltera- ture and Science, with feelings of pleasure and as, by greater cultivation of the mind, more efficient guarantee is given to social hap | piness, and a greater protection insured to our much praised and valuable institutions, the columns of the REPUBLICAN will be open for all publications having the advancement of general knowledge in view; and the edi- tors will lend their aid, however feeble, to the spread of education, the growth of mor- als, and to the medication of all else from which the well-being of the community, and the ends of happiness can be derived. Arrangements will be made whereby the earliest Congressional and Foreign 1ntelli- gence will be laid before our patrons; as like wise extracts and original communications upon the subjects of Agriculture and the Me chanic Arts, Literature, Religion, &c. The REPUBLICAN will be published week ly on an imperial sheet, with new type, and forwarded to subscribers at the rate of FouR DOLLARS per annum in advance, or FIVE DOLLARS at the erd of the year. The first number will issue about the 18th November next GEORGE w. GAYLE,

Weare gratifed to learn by travellers, that the con dton of the stage route through Greene county has been improved so as to render travelling safe and pleasant; and that the overseers have expressed a determination to keep the road in good repair for the future. With the exception of Big Creek Swamp, the road from Greensborough to the Tuscaloosa line is in fine order. Weegret however, to add that the road from thence to town is bad as it can be- and in places it is really dangerous to pass with the speed necessary for the stage We think it the imperious duty of the commissioners of roads of this county inquire into the cause of thls neglect the part of the overseers; and for the credit of our town and county we hope to see all cause ofcomplant speedi ly removed
