This is the position to which the Union
"that must be preserved" is now reduced
that the question is in every mans mouth,
how long can this Union hold together -
That question in fact, which but a few
vears. ago. it was almost treason 10 put is
now a topic of discussion ut every dinner ia
BILE, in every circle, ana with sorrow ] say it,
even in Congress itself. Yes, the dissolution
of this proud confederacy, now shown as
the Polar Star Of Liberty by all the nations
Of the earth, and whhher points the needle
Of every patriots compass as he drifts NTH
erward and thitherward in the darknest
and doubt Of monarchy and despotism--it
is solemnly and awfully said, MUST TAKE
PLACE! That the Union must be preserved,
is no longer the cry, hut there is substituted
for it that prophecy offear-the Union must
be diSsolued. Even the Northerner whose
attachment to the Union is unquestionable,
and whose chivalry never outruns his com
mon sense, begins to say TO the Georglans
and othei nullifiets ever haunting and threat
enng him,-with all the resolution Of fix
ed opinion, and with all the solemnity that
snch an opinion awakens, " let them go !:
LET THEM GO: let them try dissolution of
The Union"
Such is an Rnexaggerated picture of the
state OF fecllDg now ofrIvn s's~ n"Ps~svrt,u-
tives Of the People assembled in The Capt.
tol as well us among strangers from all parts
of the Union. Il is momentous era in the
history of our country, to which l believe
the recklessness, the presumption, and the
eartiality of Jackson's desperate crew oI
Kendalls and Lewises have reduced u.s.
That there will be an attempt in Georgia,
TO resist the decision of the Court, have
not doubt that jackson has announced
his intention not to interfere, verify be-
lieve; that South Carolina, encouraged by
this victory of the nullifiers there, will also
raise the standard of rebellion, there is ev-
cry reason TO fear aud that rivil war, fur-
GUS, desolating ciuil iear will spring up,
drenching our fair hills and villages with
the blood,-not of the invading fofegacr.-
but of the American himself there is also
every reason to fear Ifthe process of the
Court is not executed in Georgia. all the
nullifiers will shout "hurrG." Rebellion.
they will argue, has been successful in
Georgia. Let US try it here. Let us re-
slst the execution of the laws, and we will
FORCE the nation to our conditions. II the
President attempt to punish the Carolini-
ans, and let the Georgians 60, who will,
who can sustain him in such distinction !?
No one. The very next winter, if such be
his course, | can give you the names of
Representatives who will move his impeacb-
ment, and Of Senators, who will move TO
exclude the nullifiers from a participation
in the benefits of that confederacv TO whose
laws they will not submit.
But all this vaporing and froth of the
South will not amount to any thing if the
President, as the Executive, calls ont the
physical force of the Union, and insists, that
tho ld,cs SHALL be erecuted An intelligent
Georgian, nullifier too, tells me, there will
be no opposition to tho Executive, but adds
"the Executive will not order the laws TO
be executed; he is with US; we know it /;
and we will, therefore, keep the Mssiona-
rles within the four walls of the Penltenta-
ry." Nor is all this yaporing half so fear.

frequently utter. ave can FORM they rea-
