We cannot undertake to pronounce positively up
ON the health of the ciiy-but we learn that it was
Yesterday the opinion of several Physicians that the
Cholera is abating-cspecially in the malignity of
the cases.
MR. CALHOUN.
We lay Mr.. Calhoun's Correspondence with Go
vernon Hamilton, before our readers because il re-
ates TO one of the great topics of the dav and il
proceeds from the great.head of Notification itself
We are under the necessity of breaking il in
to two parts because it fills 10 columns of the
Charleston papers-and it is impossible for MS TO
spare as much space this morning from the other
SUBJECTS before us. The Exposition of Mr. Calhoun
WI no doubt be exposed hereafer-and his Null
LITIGATION nuLiifed.
Mr. G. attempts to shew "thata State has a right
III her sovereign capacity, in Convention TO declare
an unconstitutional act of Congress to be null and
void, and that such declarations would he oblipato
ny on her citizens, highly so as the Constitution
itself, and conclusive against the General Cavern
ihent, winch would have no right to enforce its con-
SHuSuoh oil It's powers against that of the State:"
mat when n State declares the notification of nm
act of the General Government, all her citizens
would be bound 10 obey such declaration: Jurvmen
10 render their verdict and Judges TO pronounce
Judgment, ACKNOWLEDGEMENT the General Govern
ment would have right call force to coerce the
state or lis citizens either by troops law or bv
force at sea, to shut up the ports of entry Sc lie
proceeds to point ont the difference between Multi
hcation and Secession-and then 10 "consler this
important modification of the sovereign powers of
the States in connection with the right of Nu6ca
tion," sc. &c
Governor Hamilton who had called for Mr.. C's
further views of the doctrine is delighted with this
additional Xposition-declares that he has risen
from ITS perusal with vastly augmented confidence
IN the truth and importance of the doctrines we be-
iIeve, and are ready to maintain and asks Mr. C's
PERMISSION to lay his Reply before the world. This
leave is granted-and here is the exposition
Mr.. Cheves seems to have anticipated and answer
cd many OF the positions of this very exposition i'm
ms "a Occasional Review" lie particularly shews
that Mr.. Calhoun's 9Th amending clause is very diff
ierent from constituting clause, which Mr. c. is anx-
ious 10 make lt-and also that there is no such thing
as Constitutional Qualification, but that il is revoI-
honmy measure. We shall follow Mr.. Calhoun's
expose with MIR. Cheves's Review And We hone
TO be able in few days to lay Mr. p. r. Barbour's
Reply to the Shocko Meeting before our Readers.
His exposition will probably be more to our taste
than either of the others He objects Modification
! as the rghtlul remedy-and contends for secession
as the ultimate remedy-but never TO be used cXcept
! like arsenic, i'll the most desperate .eXtremty-Il
Mr. b. has done justice to himself in this eXposi,ion
we shall hail his success with sincere pleausre
! MIR. Niles queries, whether we did not ourselves
write the East Room Letter? We scorn any an
swer to such query. Hezekiah Niles kne,o better
when he was mean enough to put the insidious
questlon.-'fhls same parsonage has quoted what
/ he calls ga couple of chapters from The works of
hiessrs randolph and Richie, for the particular
benefit of certain individuals who so dearly love
consistency" &c. If Mr.. N. wishes to know yyhe-
Their we have not i'll the course of % years changed
our opinion about certain individuals we must plead
guilty to the Impeachment. We change our OPT
mon of men, according they change themselves
or as their characters better developed We
once took Mr.. Niles himself to be a decided oppo-
nent of the National Bank, friend of State powers
ana OF equal rights, an honest patriot and the impair
tial, pans-taking ploddng Editor of an excellent
Register of documents and of facts. We entertain
different opinion Of the author and his works.
