WHERE IS GOD.

WHERE IS GOD.
| heard an unbeIiever ask
A gueIess Christian near.
In tones OF bcd and cool contempt.
Where is the God you fear
The old mans hair was thin and gray.
Youth had been long efaced
And on his withered wrinked brow.
Deep lines of grief were traced
An oalen staff but rudely carved
From natures forest wood
All firm in strength. but few in years.
Uuheld him as be stood
His eye lit up with holy ire
And moved his inward soul.
Rash man = he said. darest thou presume
To spurn at God's control }"
Go. read his mighty name upon
This bowling wintry wind,
And in the whispering breeze seek
His soothing care to find
His way is in the raging deep
His path in waters wild
He is the high and lofty One;
But on me he has smiled.
And while my feeble limbs grow faint.
And dimly wastes my sight.
God is my strength, my all IN all;
Where he is, dwells no night
The old mans brow paler STILL
Still fainter his breath
'Tis gain to die he murmered low.
Then calmly sunk in death.
But how; how died the infdel,
Who then Heavens power dehed
An outcast in a stranger land
He cursed his God, and died.

MIR. CALHOUN IN 1928.

We continue our extracts from this
genlleman's speech and we DO so now
for two reasons. 1t is said by free
traders that protection will weaken the
Union, and injure other interests. Now
beth these positions Mr.. Calhoun COM
bats. He regards the encouragement
of domestic manufactures as vital to all
other interests, and essential to the
Union. Referring to past financial
difficulties, Mr.. Calhoun said.
But il may be said, that the derange-
ment then experienced. resulted not
from the cause assigned, butfrom
the errors or the weakness Of the gov
9rnment. He admitted that many
financial plumbers were committed, for
the subject was new to us; that the
taxes were not laid sufficiently early,
or to as great an extent as they ought
to have been; and that the loans were
in some instances injudiciously made;
but he ventured to affirm, that had the
the greatest foresight and fortitude
been exerted, the embarrassment
would have been still very great, and
that even under the best management
the total arrangement which was actu-
ally experienced, could not, by the
best management, have been postpon-
ed eighteen months, had the wal so
long continued. How could it be
otherwise? A war, such as this coun-
try was then involved in, in a great
measure dies up the resources Of in
dividuals, as he had already proved,
and the resources of the government
are no more than the aggregate of the
surplus incomes of individuals called
into action by a system Of taxation.
1t is certainly great political evil in
Cident to the character of the industry
of this country, that, however prosper
Gus our situation when at peace, with
uninterrupted commerce and nothing
then could exceed it; the moment that
we are involved in war the whole is re-
versed. When resources are most
needed; when indispensable TO main
tain the honor, yes the very existence
of the nation, then they desert us!
Our currency is also sure to expert
ence the shock; and becomes so de-
ranged as to prevent US from calling
out fairly whatever of means s.lelt to
the conntry.-The result of a war in
the present state of our naval power, is
the blockade Of our coast, aud conse-
quent destruction of our trade. The
wants and habits ofthe country, found
ed on the use Of foreign articles, must

THEHON. jake THOMPSON.

1t is rported in the Madsonlan that "-Hr
Tbompsn of Miss. called the attention OF the
House ofepresentatives to a memorial, which
aas presented by Mr.. Morgan requesting the
,assal government to assume the debts repu-
diatedCl ahe State of Mississippi and reques-
tinc that Measures be taken to eject her from
the UnioL Mr.. T. in concluding some very
animated emarks on this petition, declared that
its statemnts were false and calumnious, and
that whoeer asserted that his STATEN her late
proceedin,s in regard to her reputed debts
had acted dishonesty or dishonorably was
base liar md calatnniator, and to him he held
himseIfreponsibIe.
"Ye Gds and little fishes" can this be our
"Jake" hiding such beligerent language
There NUT be some mistake in this matter
the reportq must have misrepresented him.
The IIadionian can not impose this upon the
people of Nigsissppi;at least Gen. Reuben Da-
Wis of Nonpe viii never believe that the same
..Jake," whm he opposed for Congress, ever
uttered sun warGke language. 1t is prepos-
ferrous, it $500 absurd to be credited for an IN
stant. Wly,-during the last canvass,"Jake"
heard it proclaimed from every stump IN Ms
sissippi, thlt the State, in repudIating hel
debts, woul be acting most "dlshonestly and
dishonorabt," yet. he neither denounced the
authors ofsuch assertions as "baSe liars and
caZu1aniatoTs' nor offered to fight "on this
point"
Now in The names of all the Coos at once,
"upon what meat doth this our Cesar feed
that he is grown so great!'
There is scarcely bond payer ia Mississip
pi, who does not think that the State in hi
late proceedings III regard to ter reputed debts
has acted in the highest degree "dishonorabIy
and has branded her name with stigmi o
infamy, which time may partially remove but
can never entirely efface. We have madths
assertion at least five hundred times, andnot-
wlthstandlng "Jake's" most formidable rsent-
ment, expect to repeat it whenever we think
proper. Whilst we earnestly deprecate Jake's
most potent wrath, we are a strenuou advo-
cate ofthe freedom of speech and the lierty OF
the press in regard to al public measups, and,
should we eve tall a martyr in the support OF
these fundamental principles of Thirty, we
must exercise the privilege of asserting that,
although we are opposed to being ejeted from
the Union, in our opinion the courseof Missis
sippi inrePudiating her debts is'diaonorable'
and diagraceful in the extreme.
Now we most devoutly hope tat "Jake'
viii not become enraged with us4nd think it
incumbent upon him to call US on for this free
expression Of our sentiments. Hlssissippans
are already sufficiently distinguished for the
recklessness with which they settle their per-
sonal difficulties by resort to pistols and bow
lie knives without making political matters
subject of private quarrel, and surely 'Jake'
will by any violence in his conduct furnish
any pretext far the standing accusation against
the Gu aracter oils constituents.

TEXAS MEETING.

AT me etmg of the citizens of Lowndes
County held at the Cour House, on the
4th inst, Col. John GIlmtr was called to
the Chair, and Charles jordan Esq, was
appointed Secretary, the OBJECT of the meet
ing having been explained, the following
resolutions were unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That we feel deep interest in
the present condition Of Texas. That the
principles of Liberty are and should be dear
to every American, and when we see the citi-
zeTls OF any country struggling to throw off
thsir CHAINS OF bondage, or maintain their
rights as Freemen, we cannot restrain our
feelings which prompt US to bid them God
speed, and happy arrival TO the distinguished
blessings and privileges that we as Freemen
enjoy.
Resolved, That the government Of Mexico,
IN loading our citizens with chains, and caus-
ing them to labor ike beasts of burden, and
IN refusing to release them when solemnly
demanded by the government of the United
States have acted alike In violation of the
laws of humanity and nations, and have gross
ly insulted the majesty of the government.
Resolved, That we view the struggle on
the part of the Mexican Government to sub
vert the liberties Of the Texian Republic, is
bit the precursor of a long and bloody war
between this power and the government of
Great Britain, with the United States.
Resolved, That we regard the impudent
assertion of Santa Anna, that the main o beet
OF the invasion ofTeXas is the abolition of
Slavery, in that Republic, but a dastardly at
tempt to divide thepeople ofthe United States
upon the fanatical question of abolition, and a
policy dictated oy he government of Great
Britain.
Resolved, That we view Texas as the
Lexington when the first blow must be struck
in defence of the Institution of Slavery in the
South.
Resolved, That We belle We that the nsidi-
Gus designs of The British Calumet to subvert
the institution of Slavery in the South have
crept into the Mexican government, and that
the British Government is making Mexico
but the Cats Paw 10 effect their object.
Resolved, That a committee OF ten be ap-
pointed to secure subscription toad the cause
of Texas, and that the funds subscribed be
appropriated to defray the expenses of a Com
pany of Volunteers 10 be raised fin the County
of Iowndes
