On Monday last portion OF the gooo
citizens of our county were favored with
addresses by the candidates for the Sen
ate, and also by Maj. OFT, one OF the can
didates for the Lower House.
Mr. Calhoun disclaimed being mem
Der of either of the great partIes-said
thu, he xas RadicaI-and ne wished to
20 to the Senate for the purpose of cor
rectinc some of the abuses of the bank
ing system, and pass valuation, redcmp-
ton and bankrupt laws.
Col Fulton the Van Buren, candidate,
bases his claims TO a seat upon local con-
sderations, pledging himself that ne
will vote for United States Senator, as the
county votes at the November election,
for the Congressional candidates. This
pledge we have no doubt Col. Fulton
would redeem to the letter and spirit, for
he is open, candid, free and frank IN all
he says or does but is 1t the policy OF the
Wings TO support him even upon this
pledge? Certainly not The Van Buren,
party have been marching on to their
goal, trampling the Constitution under
their feet, outraging the rights of the Peo-
pie, and are advancing with rapid strides
TO the establishment of an elective monar-
chy through a debased, corrupt and de-
graded faction at the seat OF Govern
mcnt. Wings of Madison, you in com
mon with your fellow Wings OF the
United States, have a duty TO discharge
that is and should be above all personal
considerations,--iti is the preservation Of
the liberty Inherited from your ancestors
and IFS faithful transmission 10 your
posterity, 1t is only by union--undirided
union-that the spoils party, can be
overthrown, and if there be one man in
our ranks that claims TO be Wing, and
only gives us his feeble voice, and de-
MICS US his vote, that man is no Wing
is no patriot, aud deserves not to wear
the name of Wing. An open foe IS less
TO be feared than an lnsideous TREND.
The county of Madison has no par
tlcular measure oi county PoiiOy
feet in the next Legislature, and her vote
should be cast according to her political
tenets. Wings of Madison, y9f have
a candidate in the field, and will you dis
card that man who has been battling
with you for years against the outrases
of the party in power, and take up his
and your political opponents, merely De-
cause they promise to represent you
faithfully upon one question! we nope
not-for the credit of yourselves ano
vour partyL-we will believe not.

Tue rkuE IssuE.-We stated In our
las, paper that the true issue was, wheth-
err the whole monetary power should DC
vested in the President of the United
States and his officers, or remain with
the peapFe, and that the Wing party
were in favor of its remaining with. the
people. To every man of common
sense we think this must be apparent, as
the struggles. of the whole Van sBuren
party. are now directed to the obtaining
of the public treasure, and placing it in
hands that are and must ever be subser-
Went to the Executive of the United
States,.as the officers with whomit is pro-
posed to confide it, are subject to his
power and removable at his will. This
struggle to invest the Executive of the
United States with his giant power OF
control of the public monies is attempt
ed 10 be effected through the sub Treasu-
ry scheme. As the sub-Treasury scheme
is intended to place the monies in the
hands of Governments officers, subject as
we have stated to the authority of the
President. are not both the monies and
officers under his controlg Most certain
~. Among all politicians and states
man it is universally admitted that the
separation of those powers areindispen-
sable to the preservation of republican,
ism--that the uniting will give the pow
err. if not establish, A MONARCHY. The
corrupt faction that heads the Van Buren,
party are straining every nesye to unite
the power Of the public purs 9TH Exc
cutive influence and patronage, and il
they should succeed in their efforts, an
elective nonarchial despotism, will be
fastened upon The American people which
can never probably be shaken oil. The
result of the sub-Treasury must end IN
elective monarchy. IN a republic the
people must watch their men il, Office
and in power, or they will find--as in
all time past--ahe priceless gem, liberty,
has been yrested from them, and its
place supplied with manacIes and
schemes.

FOURTH OF JULY.-This the 6ith Ami
versary of American independence, and
the day that gave birth to one of the
greatest nations on earth, was socially
and unpretendingly celebrated by our
citizens Of the town. In consequence of
extensive preparations having been made
for the celebration in other parts of the
county, no preparation was made at this
place TO celebrate with becoming spirit
our national birthday.
The advent of this memorable day
was--not marked with the roar of artil-
lery or the roll of musketry-but calm
and serene, and its sunset unclouded.
Our worthy citizen, Mr.. w. Smith,
upon solicitation. in the morning, con-
scented to serve up dinner for the citi-
zcns of the town, who accordingly as
sembled at his dining room at the ap-
pointed hour, 4 o'clock, where they
found good and substantial repast pre-
pared.
The Declaration of Independence was
read by Mr.. c. c. Shackleford, and Jno.
Ii. Rollins, Esq, delivered an excellent
lextempore address, which was cordially
and warmly received. A number of pat
riotic toasts were drank after the dinner,
when all left for their homes, peace and
harmony having prevailed throughout

ATALLA COUNTY. w lille other coun-
ties in this section of the State are la bor-
ing hard TO pay the interest upon their
debt, Alfalfa is fast approximating final
escape from her embarrassment. The
debts in that county--though numerous
are generally small, and it is thought by
those best informed, that the present
crop will relieve the planting portion of
that community from most, if not all
of their debts. The planters in that
county are in most instances men OF
small capital, they have engaged in no
large speculations--their present crops
are fine--they observe strict econo1Rya-
are raising most of their own grain, and
are bouad TO be. in few years in the
full enjoyment of that prosperity, which
is always the sure result of industry and
economy.
