the several States can receive their share of the common

Here then are three points in which Mr.. Clay's bill is
a Pa,paole violation OF the compacts of cession, by which
the United States acquired ali the public lands out of Flo
rida and east of the Mississippi, viz:
l Ii gives o%ne.eighth Of the proceeds of the public
lands 10 a few States, when the compacts declare they
shall be shared by all.

az the principle of dis,ributon, when the compacts pre-
scribe the proportion Of each State in I" the general charge
and expenditure"

10 be paid TO a few States, and the remaining seven
eighths TO be paid TO the whole twenty four, when il was
the understanding Of all parties TO the compacts, their OBJ.
vious meaning and the practice under them from The time of
their formation 10 this day, that the proceeds Of the public
land sales shall be paid into the Treasury, and applied to
lessen the taxes levied upon the several States and their
citlz-ns Tor the general purposes of the Union.
MI. Gays bill, therefore, is q pdipdbie. breach of the

Repubhc, and, IL passed, would, i'm a Court of EQUITY. be
pronounced null aud void, unless the United State. have

voluntary contracts, and deprive the States of their re.
served and conventional rights whenever il may suit the
views oil policy or ambition, entertained by the general
government.
we shall hereafter proceed TO show that the disposition
OF the Public Lands, proposed by Mr.. Claws bill, will be
Injurious both TO The old States aud the new.

NIFTY DOLLARS REWARD will be given for the
Il apprehension of my negro man JESSE, if taken
out OF the State of Virginia, or Ten Dollars if within the
State. Jesse is a mulatto, apparently about 45 years of
age, somewhat grey-is about 5 feet 8 or 10 inches high,
thin visage, prominent cheek bones, quite muscular and
square built, has lost several of his front teeth, nose more
disposed TO be peaked than mulattoes generally upon close
Inspection, he will be discovered TO be freckled, aud holes
have been made in his ears, as though to wear rings, but
have grown When spoken 10, is quite humble and
polite, and disposed to smile-he is intelligent and handy
at many trades, is a good cooper of ~hogsheads and tight
casks-a acknowledgements OF a carpenter and shoe
maker. He absented himself once before, at which lime
he had procured free papers, badly executed. As he
has gone oil without any cause, il is suspected he has
either procured free papers, or expects 10 do so.-
When he run away before, he travelled by way of James
River to Richmond, and ii is more than probable he
will pass by way OF James or A%ppomattox Rivers. He
was well provided with clothes and money. will give
the above mentioned reward, if put In any Jail so that get

VrRGrt1A LEGISLATURE ION the 18th inst.
says the Baltimore Patriot, Gov Floyd laid
the Ordinance of the South Carolina Conyen>
ton before the Legislature Of Virginia, togeth-
er with his own views of the important guess
ton thereon. We have not room for this mes
sage to-day; but we observe by its tenor that
Gov. Floyd is disposed to take ground with the
Nullifers. He seems sufficiently imbued with
the mystifed doctrines Of estate Sovereignty
tomake very passable nulifier; and those of
South Carolina, may be sure of his sympathy
at least, if of nothing else. In the issue now
made up, between the Sovereign State of South
Carolina and the United States, Gov. Floyd
thinks that the only true mode of deciding the
question, would be by an "amicable reference
to the great tribunal which formed and adopted
the consltution-namely, the people Of the
States themselves"
