The Wing says
After battling yesterday on the doctrine Of Sc
ces.iop. and steadily voting down various at
tempts to change the resolutions Of the Commit
tee, those resolutions were finally perfected
and the House proceeded to vote between them,
and Mr. Browns substitute. Contrary to gene.
raj expectation, the substitute was adopted, by
one vote-ayes g., noes 66--Mr. Nash, Of
Powhatan, being the only absentee. Had he
been present, it is alledged he would have voted
in the negative, thus producing a tie and sccur-
ing the passage OF the resolutions Of the Commit.
tee by the casting vote Of the Speaker.
Messrs. Yancey, McComas, Hlner, Cline,
Bare, Newman and Lewis, and perhaps some
others voted for the substitute. who had previous
y sustained the Report If the Committee Of 81.
We have heretofore published Mr.. Browns
resolutions. They have, however, been consid-
erabIy modified since; according to the Enquirer
of this day, pretermitiing secession altogether,

ALEXANDRIA, (D.eC.)
Moyp.sY MORNING. zasuaRY q, 1883.
MR.. CALHoUN's OPINIONS.

In the remarks ahich Mr., Calhoun maze Oh
the Presidents recent message to Congress- "e
stated, among other things, that to the success 0'
the party which had elevated Mr.. JEFFERSON u
the Presidency, he considered, might De a''f''
buted The duration Of the Government; and Ihat
the present situation of the country, placed a'
it is on the verge Of dissolution, may Dr. asct'o-
ed to "the powerful workings OF the conso'oa'-
Ing principle" To the first of these assertions
We have nothing to object. because II Is a mere
matter Of opinion, in which principles need not
be involved, and other men may think very un'
feren,y from Mr Calhoun on the subject. we
profess to believe that the g inherent principles
of decay.n of which Mr. Calhoun very phiioso'
phically speaks, are not so firmly seated in this
government as TO be made to quicken, grow up
and yield fruit, upon the elevation or depression
Of any single man, or the temporary ascenda'cy
of any particular party. II is true, we admit
that the success Of one bad man or one bad mea'
sure, or the contrary events. may produce eV''
or happy results, as the circumstances may nap
pen to occur, and all bearing ultimately and d.
recty upon the duration OF the government and
the maintenance Of its lair and just proportions;
but it would require continuance and series
of untoward and unfortunate causes in free, re-
preventative republic to produce such disaster
as its final destruction. Upon such question,
however, we have no disposition to argue or the.
or,se. Sufficient to the day is the evil there
Of" What We wish particularly TO notice is the
second opinion advanced by Mr. Calhoun, which
we have quoted above. To US it does seem that
the very converse of the proposition is true
There is no manner of doubt but that the coun
try is absolutely on the very verge of civil wal
or dissolution. But. then, what has produced
this result? Surely not any effort that has been
made to bind together aud unite its different
parts. No! 1t is rather because the govern
ment experiences the centrifugal action OF thu
states. In every instance in our history where
danger has been incurred, we have found It pro
duced by false aud unfouuded notions Of state
rights and state sovereignty.
Let US not be misunderstood, We regart
consolidation in very nearly the same light thai
Mr. Calhoun does. We look upon it as the mex
worse evil to disunion. Under consolidate,
government we should fear that some steel cIat
warrior would arise TO " crush under bis armed
heel" the liberties OF our country. What W,
assert is, that heretofore experience has proved
and no,o lac's prove, that tine most menacine
evils which have threatened and do threaten tht
government do not owe their origin to the "pow
etful workings of the consolidating principle"
