It was on this rule that the late tariff law was supported by so large a number of the southern members of congress. That law was carried by a coalesced vote; and the principle of such a vote will prevail as long as differences of opinion exist amongst men. It was never more clearly shewn than in the anxiety of Mr. Ritchie, that judge Barbour (who has been as the very finger post of Mr. R. in political orthodoxy), should not interfere with the election of Mr. Van Buren to the vice-presidency, though the latter has been guilty of innumerable heresies against the true faith in state-rights, and so forth. Nay, the president himself, was preferred on "coalition" principles. He was the alternative, not the choice of "Virginia," as Mr. R. oftentimes dictated.

But, perhaps, they are a pair of infallibles"American System" should lend his influence to proand possess rights which are not common to the people at large. COALITION IS THEIR LIFE-BLOOD.

THE INTEREST BILL. In our last sheet, page 410, we inserted a brief sketch of certain remarks of Mr. Polk, of Tennessee, Mr. Mercer, of Virginia, and Mr. Davis, of Massachusetts, on the bill providing for the payment of interest on advances made by the states in the last warwhich bill passed both houses of congress, but was vetoed by the president. Mr. Polk fully admitted the rightfulness of these claims. Those of South Carolina had been paid, and so ought the claims of all the rest of the states. He said that the aggregate amount of interest was about three millions-but the only question that he made was, as to the present ability of the treasury to pay this sum-adding, that "no injury could result from a postponement to the next session.

That these claims are as fair, as honest and just ones as ever were preferred to congress, cannot admit of a dispute and that they will be paid, is certain: but we do not agree with Mr. Polk that "no injury will result” from their postponement. The money in the treasury, it is the wish of the president should be used for paying off the three per cent stock-which, except to gratify his

MR. CALHOUN. A brief extract from the celebrated speech of this distinguished gentleman on the direct tax bill in 1816, is republished in the present sheet. It "goes the whole" in support of internal improvements and domestic manufactures. I do not impute it as an offence in Mr. C. that he has changed his opinions-that, from being an ultra friend of these great national interests, he has become their ultra opponent. I well remember the surprise which several members of congress from Pennsylvania expressed when, in December 1825-(the first year of Mr. Adams' administration), I predicted a total abandonment of the first interest by the gentleman named, because of a brief conversation which I had just held with him. He formerly thought that all the surplus money of the United States should be appropriated to works of internal improvement-but then he would direct all that surplus to the payment of the public debt, beyond the 10 millions annually set aside for that purpose. The point of the latter proposition was not to be misunderstoodand hence the prediction made.

jects and proceedings which have for their acknowledged purpose, a resistance of the laws of the United States having reference to them-even by force of arms. For such is, and must needs be, the end of the doctrine of "nullification"-if carried out. A broad confession of one's own errors-should teach us moderation in deciding upon what we esteem the errors of other men.

BALTIMORE. While in deep sympathy with our countrymen, in many places, and mankind generally, because of the pestilence which prevails in Europe and North and South America with such fatal effects-we are permitted to state, that the city of Baltimore, and its neighborhood, yet remains quite as healthy as is usual at the present season of the year, judging by the interments, which are always faithfully reported. In the week ending on the morning of the 7th inst. the whole number of interments was 67 of these 31 were of persons under one year, 11 between 1 and 2 years, 11 between 2 and 21, and only 14 above 21 years old. Of these, 39 were of infantile diseases; and not one of cholera morbus, which often carries off persons in the months of July and August. The population of the city, generally, have been, or are, affected by slight indispositions, shewing some general

THE COLORED POPULATION. Judging by the events which have taken place at Norfolk and Portsmouth, the progress of the cholera among the colored people will be more general and more fatal, than among the white population, should the disease reach those places where persons of color abound. It is well ascertained, that cleanliness and a careful attention to diet are among the best means of preventing the cholera, and promptitude in noting the prevalence of the symptoms and removing them, the most certain mode of escaping death from the disease. These things cannot be generally expected from the blacks, or hoped for in their behalf. They are careless, filthy, and are badly provided to meet a pestilence so rapid and appalling.

"The late tariff act-It is now a plain case-LIBERTY or SUBMISSION! He that dallies is a dastard, he that doubts is damned!"

MR. BARBOUR. The editors of the Richmond Enquirer and Washington Globe seem greatly perplexed at the progress of vice presidency. The first is very sore with being called a “Jupublic opinion in favor of Mr. Barbour, as a candidate for the das who betrayed his master with a kiss" and "the perfidious friend of P. P. Barbour," &c. He says in his paper of the 31st ult. "Mr. Barbour will scarcely get the vote of Virginia," the persons named on the electoral ticket being left free, (if It seems probable that Mr. B. will get the vote of North and elected), to prefer whom they please for the vice presidency. South Carolina; The "Globe" says "Whether Mr. Barbour is willing to lay hold of the president's skirts, at the bidding, and under the auspices of his deadliest enemies, for the purpose of defeating the will of the republican party-of defeating an electhree or four others, to put the choice of vice president upon tion by the people, and giving the power to Poindexter and the casting vote of Mr. Calhoun, remains to be seen. How it would be cast no man will doubt, who understands the relations now subsisting between Messrs. Clay and Calhoun, and that the selection, in such case, will be confined to Mr. Van Buren and Mr. Sergeant, who will certainly be the two highest candidates."

At the last session of congress, 62,000 dollars were appropriated for paving, or improv ing on the McAdam plan, Pennsylvania avenue, from the capitol to the executive offices; 5,700 dollars for conducting supplies of wholesome water to the president's house and the public offices; 40,000 dollars for the purchase of water-rights and conveyance of spring-water, in pipes, to the capitol; and 7,102 dollars for the "laying of Seneca flagging on the walk from the western gate to the capitol."

DINNER TO JUDGE CLAYTON. By the Greenville Southern Sentinel, of the 28th ult. we perceive that the citizens of Laurens district, South Carolina, gave a public dinner to judge A. S. Clayton, of Georgia, on Wednesday, the 25th ult. Judge Clayton addressed the assembly (which is variously estimated at from twelve to fifteen hundred persons), on the all-absorbing subject of the tariff; and strongly advocated the doctrine of nullification. In concluding, he said: "You will naturally inquire what is to be done? Submit? Certainly not. Νο freeman will submit to it. I advise, then, the most peace-members of the legislature, of this state, commenced last MonKENTUCKY.

And, indeed, results of elections are not easily calculated and sometimes great results are produced by small causes. In 1824, gen. Jackson had 99 electoral votes, and Mr. Adams only 84; yet the latter represented more of the people of the United States than the former. And the "Boston Daily Atlas" has the following curious presentation of the last election: In 1828, general Jackson received 178 electoral votes, and Mr. Adams 83. The following states gave general Jackson 60 votes, which might have been given to Mr. Adams by a change of less than

Willey's Town was fired and destroyed by the liberated Africans, without orders-and the troops, having no enemy to fight, returned to Caldwell.

MISCELLANEOUS.

Paterson, N. J. The authorities have issued a notice, prohibiting, for the present, all strangers from lodging in this place. But two cases of cholera have occurred there, and in both instances the subjects were from New York.

Mr. Ewing, chief justice of New Jersey, has died of the cholera, at Trenton.

Several cases have occurred at Norwalk, Con. Three persons in one family of blacks had died-they resided in a cellar.

Quebec. Deaths by the cholera yet take place in this city-the average seems to be from 8 to 10 daily. Damp easterly winds increase the disease. A number of very respectable persons have recently died.

Montreal is still afflcted. On the 26th July 19 cases and 15 deaths were reported-which, as to the deaths, is rather above the average of the several preceding days. On the 24th to the 26th, 29 cases and 20 deaths; on the 26th, 13 cases and 15 deaths. As so it rages still. In two days, the 31st July and 1st Aug. there were 78 new cases and 44 deaths.

Providence, R. I. Four cases, which terminated fatally, and all in one house, have occurred in this city. The victims had had no communication with persons from New York. No other cases reported since.

Newport. A few cases were daily appearing, and deaths happening in this town-and besides, on account of cholera, this hitherto most healthy place had become otherwise.

Princeton, N. J. Several cases have appeared in this town, and a large number of the students had left the college.

Long Island. Solitary cases have occurred in many parts of this island, besides those at Brooklyn, with an unusual number of the ordinary cholera morbus.

Buffalo, July 28. The disease is evidently on the increase in this place. The whole number of cases reported this week is 41; deaths 14. July 30-13 cases, 3 deaths, &c.

Rochester, July 30, 13 new cases and 4 deaths-31st, 22 cases and 3 deaths.

Cases and deaths have happened, in addition to the places heretofore named, at Schenectady, the village of Sing Sing, Fort Miller, Flatbush, Johnstown, Whitehall, Albion, Ogdensburg, Hamburg, Palmyra, Plattsburg, Owego, Oswego, Athens, Glen, N. Y. Hackensack, Aquackanonk, Bergen, N. J. Sandusky, Ohio, &c. Also among the Oneida Indians, New York. Poughkeepsie. The cholera suddenly appeared in the poor house of the county located at this village. Of the 220 inmates, 25 were attacked and 15 died in one day! On the 5th inst. 16 new cases and 13 deaths. On the 6th, 18 new cases and 8 deaths. On the 7th, 7 new cases and 12 deaths. In the village on the 6th and 7th Aug. there were 15 cases and 5 deaths.

We have a frightful account of the ravages of the cholera on board a canal boat, the "Western Barge," proceeding from Albany to Buffalo, with a cargo of fifty-six English, Irish and Swiss emigrants. The captain of the boat, and several of the closelypacked passengers having died, the people on the line of the canal would not permit the survivors to land, until they arrived at Rochester, where a humane spirit prevailed-and the sick were taken to the hospital, and the well provided for. The boat was drawn out of the canal and purified. From the filthy state that she was in, it is thought that nearly all on board must have perished before they could have reached Buffalo. It was understood at Rochester, that contracts had been entered into thus to pack and forward several thousand foreign emigrants to the west. These poor creatures, shipped off from the places of their nativity as incumbrances of the land, are thus cast upon the charity of strangers.

The Indians are said to cure the cholera by decoctions of white birch, Epinette and Larch Fir barks, boiled together.

It is complained of that since the cholera has prevailed at New York, Boston is filled with vagrants and drunkards. It seems that, with a strong hand, they have been removed to

county, Virginia, among the blacks; and one white person, a respectable young gentleman, had swiftly died.
