hs ivocates, more injury than wise en-
smy," aHdwe cannot give an apter illustra-
ion Of its truth, ihan to point you to the
rse Of 49, in his Advocate, in speaking
Il be address of Col. Hadley, he says, '.lf
Vtn Buren, has made an avowal of States
lights principles, &c. &C." Is il possible
'iiat man who has been dabbling in pol
tics as long as S.-been editor of the Ad-
ocate considerable unrestricted ifnot
pTactiSed law--read Shakespeare g. knows
hist il is an 'saxium in mathematics, that
things which are equal to the same thing
are equal to one another" | say, is il
possible for him who is so supremely wise
and knowing in so many reconcile things,
should be so supremely ignorant in rela-
ton to Van Buren's politics? Is is not a
fact notorious ever since the formation of
our government, that there have been but
two parties, who differed materially? That
these were the Federaists and Republic
cans or Democrats, and that the only diff
ference between the latter and the lead
ing Nullifers, consists merely in admins
tering the remedy for the disease with
which the body polite has been afflicted;
the tariff. And indeed, but very little DIFF
ference in regard to this question now ex-
ISIS, for Notification is only now consider
by all, revolutionary, not constitu
ional right.
There never has been an honest and
borough State Rights-man who believed |
he United Statas Bank to be constitution
i, or in favor of III. Clay's election to the
Presidency ;--but those who are now adj
Tocating these things are the enemies of
the South and States Rights; who have
shielded themselves with the pretended
doctrines Of the Virginia Resolutions, and
in this way are throwing all their weight
in the Federal scale, Beware, people of
Mississippi, be not deceived by these
wolves in sleeps clothing--they are mere
ly the remains Of the supporters of J. O.
Adams, who are afraid Of the just denun-
citation and the fearful sentence which ,,
would soon be pronounced on them by an !
enlightened peoplc-were they to come l
out openly; hencs, by coming out with the l
qualifying word, State Rights, prefixed to 0
their names, they think to carry on their o
diabolical work undetected. Be not de- il
ceyed then any longer-tear the veil from
before your eyes and look at their course; Of
then ask yourselves the question: can he h
who tavors the elevation of'H. Clay, be
friend to the South? The very man that h
has uniformly opposed every measure be- -
nefcial to the South-the very man who ~ !
adhered upon the country one of the great "
est evils with which we have ever been ol
cursed. Yes, this same man, II. Clay, was
he cause of the Republican party first OF
Offering; and shall he now realize his ex- tt
,ectations, probably the very thing he had W
n contemplation when he first put the ball st
If his nefarious system of taxing the south m
n motion? This was the deep laid scheme f.
# the FedefaHsts, not surpassed by any in ID
he annals of American History, for its /,
iretul consequences to the Union and its :
organizations to the completion of south
IN vassalage. And now, when States :,
ights have nearly triumphed, the tariff y
educcd-the IT, s. Bank put down, and le
III government about to be restored to its n
ristine purity-a sound unhuctuating cur
oncy offered you through the Independent n
'reasury, free from the concomitant evils ii
enerally attending monied institutions; W
ill you listen to the siren voice of these n
retended State rights gentry till the fate {,
f the South is irrevocably sealed. j
A STATES RIGHTS-MAN.
