Several weeks ago the Editor oil the Telegraph de-
nounced the sentiment contained in the close Of the above
passage OF the Farewell Address He found engrafted
by the President in his last Inaugural Address and we
supposed he had assaed as the advice OF General Jack
son. without knowing that 1t proceeded from Gen. ash
ingon or even pcrceivng that il noted as quota
ton The sentiment initiated against Mr.. Calhouns pro-
jects and that enough to call out the vi
upera'on OF the Telegraph upon President Jackson; but
we conjectured that prudence would restrained Mr.
Calhouns reckless instruments from reprobating the
monitons, left by the Father Of his country as legacy
to those TO whose service he had devoted his cand es-
pecially that SOLEMN INJUNCTION of the Farewell
Address which has been consoerated in the hearts of the
American people, and held the important he had
ever utteredone for which he invoked gard as of GIN
n,fe moment" and to which all his abor had been d.
reced. Itseems we mistaken. The TELEGRAPH now
takes the field agains, the principles which bind
the Union as the principles of Washington. He thus
opens his attack and will seen that he speaks not on
~ Tor himself but the people of the United States. In
reply to the Nashville Banner, he says
They Che people Of the United States have not vet
in the nhlbility OF any And although the have
have ourselves, the utmost for Washng,on
yet they have not yet become such manworshppers as to
believe in the inpossibity OF his being mistaken An
opinion advanced by him before he had experience of the
operation and tendencies of the system, NAV surely he
called in question when have such and
when we find the operations and tendencies of the system
directly the reverse of that which he had fondy agin.

" General Washington thought that the nowers r;ro,

mere was no danger oil others being usurped, of those
granted being perverted the attainment of objects
which the Convention which framed the Constitution had
positively refused to place under the power and control of
the Federal Government" &C., SC.
Ii is worthy of remark here, that General Washinp,on
had before he wrote his farewell address, given his sane.
ton to laws for the protection of the denti-
cal usupatiOn which is set up pretext for secession
and separation Of the Unon by nulfyers But Green
goes on TO say: But times chdnged'-,oe are much
better Judges noto IF the tendencies of the constitution
man cny one could hare been prior to experience of its
Operations"!t May ask il Washington had not an
experience OF the Operations of the constitution at the
close oil his public life Had he no knowledge of the
tendencies OF constitution under which he had admin
sered the government successfully for eight years
he not applied those powers which is now pretended
nave been SINCE usped to give birth and nurture TO the
manufactures which essential the indepe and
defence OF our country? This be denied. The
statutes signed by his hand bear evidence against the
NOR OF the miserable who having
the principles Of protection far would make
to those whom they have duped by denying the au,hor.
y upon which they acedand by insisting that if ash
ingon had oreseen the abuse, they have committed I'M
