It's curious fact, that as the
Is applied TO the famous Message of Gov TozeyveG nS
his scheme for dissolution Of the Union is expos,d ill.,,
whole Multiplying party is thrown into consernation
short tack is attempted upon the deliberations Of he
gisature by their leader, and the Federal Bhioy sun
posing 'ne Governors scheme, to be stroke
against Martin Van Buren, easily wlipued into the
ranks Although the whole Of the Message so far 40 re-
atcs to the Negroes and Fanatics was referred last week
TO Committee; yet the Nuiers feared TO await n full
au ai investigation OF the subject and proposed to ay
TO authorize the Governor open the COMMUNICATIONS
recommended This, too, without any recommendation
from the select Committee and by SiHpie resolution of
e House Of Delegates without asking The conc1rrencs
oil The Senate! ELecutire Dctaioa gross and panable
What can the Governor of South Carolina or ~ 49,
0he state tell us about protecting ourselves against the
ranatcs unless 1T be by the interposition Of a South
cln OonicdeIacy Can any in his senses doubt that
sueh would be the weight and burden Of the Cover
song! What friend of the Union would cnrusl him viii,

This scheme in relation TO the Southern s,,,cs =; all

Dun OF tese schemes arc pcriOus the Union and
neither Is required by the emergencies Of The case

and OF the proposed resolution, wit; the application o.
the Governors Of the slave holding States JIo.v
can heir Governors know what their respective Iegs
Iatures intend TO do? Suppose Gov. Marcy were 10
write TO Gov Tazewell about the intentions Of our own
Legislature, could Gov. Il. inform him? Would L.
nol Iather say Sir am not tie Legislature of uv
o'e' ana now can undertake say what they mean

enigmened euzens 10 see for themselves and report

Watkins leigh as our Commissioner TO South Carl,
n'' Wny should we not resort to the same noasore
