 We give below the Ordinance Of the Nnli6ers. It goes beyond the. purposes ayow ed by it's authors to the people ofSouth Carolina, before the election of the mem bers of the Convention. An eventual se- paration from the Union is the obvious in- port of this proceeding. It, in fact, leaves no alternative to the General Government, but quiet submission to the doctrine, that each State has the right 10 annihilate all the laws which may be passed by the au- thority of the whole--or by refusal to re- cognize the doctrine by any act, to make that act separation Of South hCorolina from the confederacy. This power, as now assumed by South-Carolina, if admit ted by the other States, IS Tn effect total dissolution ofthe Union. Ifthat State can annn the whole Revenue System, and declare Charleston free port, 1t IS yir- taa!ly destroying the obligation Of the laws, imposing duties in every State And the Convention, elected by small majority of single State, will not mere Y auiify the iaso, as regards itself, but aeleat its operation in all the rest. bus at once the sinews of the General Govern ment would be cut at single blow, and every member of the Confederacy be com pelied to take tbe law from one State, or each be brought to provide separately for lis own exigencies.
 The manner in which this ordinance is fo be forced upon the people of South-Car- osfna, by those at present in tine majority ti,ere, IS not less arrogant than that in which those assuming to represent one State, presume to dictate to ali other States, and to an immense majority of the people of this counirv He Convention Sas oFdained, as test of holding office, Or even enjoying the conmon rights Of cit

One Of the most remarkable circum- stances attending the fortunes of the slgners of the Declaration of Indepen- dence, Says the N. Y. Evening Post) was the tranquility in which their after lives were passed, and the late period to which they were protracted. Most oi them lived to good old age, crown ed with civil honors, bestowed by the gratitude of the Republic, and some of them perished by mere decay of the powers of nature. Of the ffiy-six who affixed their signatures to that doou- ment, twenty-seven lived to an age ex- Iceeding seventy years, and forty-o to
 an age exceeding sixty. Only two of
 the whole number, Gwinnet, of Gcor- gias who fell in duel in lis 18th year, and Lynch, of South Carolina, who was shipwrecked in his sxtieth-died violent deaths. Twenty-one lived to the beginning of the present century, and three were permitted to see the great experiment of a representative confederacy confirmed by the events of fifty years. Of all the delegates from New York and New England, only one, Whipple, of New-Hampshirc, died at an earlier age than sixty. Never in the world had the leaders of any bold and grand political movement more req son 10 congratulate themselves and tkeir country oniis issue. The exertions and perils of their manhood were succeeded by peaceful, honored,. and ripe old age, in which they witnessed the happy result of the institutions they had aided in desisng, and they were gathered to their graves amid the regrets of the generation which was in it's cradle when they laid the foundations of the Republic.

 The farmers of Illinois are adopting one Of the surest means to enrich them selves, by engaging very extensively in the cultivation of Wheat. In the coun- ties oi sangamo and Morgan alone, we have been told, that the produce of the next crop, should no blight fall upon t, will be nearly equal to two millions of bushels. tis no uncommon thing in that thrifty and cnterprising section oi the State, to see fields of from three to six hundred acres sown alto gether with wheat.

 UPPER CANADA.-The case of Mr. Mackenzie has been brought up again in the Parliament of Upper Canala.- It has been a subject for angry discus sion, for several sessions and elections, and is likely to be as fruitful a topic as the similar case of Wilkes and the Brit ish House of Commons. It will be re- membered that this gentleman,-Wm. l.. Mackenzie, one of the members Of the House from the county of York has been twice expelled, and every time reelected by the people of York. lie sailed last spring to England, as the agent of his constituents, where he now is. On the first day of the meeting of the Parliament, motion was made to expel him third time, on the ground, that having been pronounced by the House unworthy 10 sit with them, and twice expelled, he was ineligible to a seat.

Mr. W1Rr in this letter in. dulges in very gloomy forebodings as to the late of his country. In one part of It he says--s.
