Yesterday being Court day, and Mr. Cabell happe
to be at Charlottesville many gentlemen were snxous
that the meeting should then take place, and he should
address the people; but many OF the wsrmes friends OF
the improvement were absent, IL thought best to
anticipate the time previously appointed.
Ii is rather 10 be regretted, that these circums
being added to those Of Nelson Amhers, and Bucking
ham, few such Efforts and the great cause will
gather such impetus as to through IN. other
ties on the line with resilcss force. Mr. Cabe very

we tell the Courier, he is mistaken Virginia will
not bend the knee to Congress for aid. She asks
nothing at the expence of our Constitution. No one
is more opposed TO such aid, than the Editor whose
article the Courier has done him the honor to copy
yet no one is more sincerely devoted to the cause
of Internal Improvement. We have ALWAYS been
against the asking or the receiving of dollar from
the United Siates-und the more we see the more
we are satisfied, that we right. The United
States ought 10 conne themselves to their egiti,nate
constitutional province. Roads and canals were not
lntended--and ought never to be assigned, TO PASS
under their jurisdiction. The States can do it bet
ter for themselves. Some Of them have done it
and we hope, oil will do it. The usurpation of Con
gress is staggering under the Maysville Veto /; and
