this State. The Bank, Internal Improvements, dec., have again and again been reprobated by South Carolina, and these are whig measures. I know of nothing which they have promised to do which we can approve, or which, by any possibility, can work in our favor. They have never pretended to principles which conform to ours* and their interests or supposed interests are diametrically opposed. w Let me ask if a single Whig measure is known or thought of, beneficial to the South, or ftouth Carolina. Their rivers, and harbors, and manufactures, and ships, and sailors, dec., are benefitted by the appropriations of Congress; but these come from the Treasury, and that Treasury is filled by duties, and two-thirds -i .1 j..,; tall on the Plan ??[ imiw uuiibi mum 11hhik..v. , ? talion States, as they furnish two thirds of our exports. But I am not disposed to disturb you wi'h this vexed question. I solemnly declare I dn not know of one opinion common to the Whig party, one principle generally aeknow. 1 edged by them, or one fpeling which can actuate them as a party, which is not, I believe, in. jurious to the South u General Taylor States in one of his letters thit he will not veto any Whig measure, that is, any act passed by Congress, unless the same he nnconstitutional or passed in haste : that is, without due consideration. These are sounding words, but they mean very little. In the first place, what can General Taylor know of the Constitution? In nil doubtful cases he must rfcoiv.e as correct, the interpretations ol those about him, and there will be none about him but Whigs. What the Whigs in Congress regard as constitutional will be constitutional in (be opinion of General Taylor. " * Again, how can General Taylor ever decide that an act has been passedin a hurry or ^inadvisedly by Congress? If ever he takes thia ground, satisfactory evidence will be afforded that he is not only very indiscreet but very anfit to be President. What! return a bilj to either House with the declaration of the President appendant thereto that not only one House but both Houses have acted without deliberation? Impossible! This will never be done. General Taylor says that the veto power is conservative. Granted. So is the negative of | either House of Congress on the other. I cannot hut tbink the General mistakes the Constitution. I have no douht when surrounded by bis Cabinet be will learn that a President must approve of an act before be signs it, and thus put upon record his approval. Could General Taylor, as an honest man, declare to the nation and the world he approved of an act when he did not approve of it. The act does not become a law until the President writes upon it approved,' and verifies the declaration by signing his name under it. The people have said as plainly as they could, in the constitution, that the President is appointed among other purposes to scrutinize such acts of Congress as they pass; and if be does not approve of them, they ahall not beeome laws. If, indeed, he does not, within a certain number of days, signify to the House in which an act has originated, his ob. jections, it will become a law without his approyal. Rut are we to understand thai the .-. brave and bigh-minded Taylor will thus evade -bis constitutional responsibility? Impossible! He will soon learn that he cannot do so with bonor, and therefore will not adhere to his pro* fent construction of the constitution. The fact is, General Tavlor knows how to heat an ene~ WMM UMIHIUOS nuuovn ?o n vvvwn wwpv 1 ty; but he does not know how to construe the Constitution. And how should he? His whole life hts been passed in camps, and bis very proficiency in arms is presumption against his .'knowledge of the laws and constitution. The Veto power is vastly more than he now thinks ; it?-it is conservative certainly, hut much more - so than he supposes. The President is responsible for every act that becomes a law, unless passed in opposition to his 'Veto ' He is to take care that the Republic suffer no detriment from unconstitutional, unjust, or impolitic laws. u But I must come to close. I cannot content lobe one of tho Vice Presidents. First, hof-nuco I Knra il?adv declared, in the name of the democratic party in Charleston, that they bouhl take no action in the premises. " Secondly, because many of my friends at. tended the Taylor meeting, whom I am not dis posed to drive into the Whig ranks, by what .Will appear to them to be almost a personal opposition. I think they were wrong, and would win them back by some more conciliatory mea- < sures. If nothing more be said or done, many of them, if not all, who are lint looking out for office, will, on reflection, see that it is better to vote (or Cass than join the Whig party." DANIEL E. HUGER. SPEECH OF THE HON. FRANKLIN J. MOSES. The following Report of the speech of the speech ol the Hon. Mr. Moses, of Sumter District, at a Democratic meeting at Tammany Hail, N. Y., we extract from the N. Y. Herald of the 10th ult. Hon. Mr. Moses, of South Carolina, after , -referring to tho handsome reception he met with, and the reminiscences connected with Tammany Hall, said what is tho great cause in which the democracy is engaged? Is it a contest (or the election of men, or- is it one of principle, between the old republican party and this new party, made up of the factions of all parties, moved hy the great leaven of federalism? He confessed that when General Taylor's nnmn fiwol ncrv/tloSmo/I o a on inriononrUnt PAflfli. date., the people of South Carolina were di*po. sed to support him; hut when they saw him re ?i5eirc the nomination of the whig*, and associate hit name with Millar J Filmore, they concluded that whether they liked him or not, thpy liked the cause of their country better. (Cheers.) \VJ?nn they gave up Cass, it reminded him ofthe story o! the two hoys, who were about to divide a flock of sheep, which was the only property they inherited from their father. The older brother was wiser and more cunning than the other. The younger brother had a pet sheep, named Sandy, which he had raised, which slept in his room, which followed him everywhere, and ahich he thought a great deal of. The older brother, knowing this, divided the flock into two equal parts, as regards numbers, but one part contained all the poor and bad sheep, and poor pet Sandy among them, and the other contained all the good ones. Now, said he. Bob, the sheep are equally divided, which half will you have? Bob looked at them along time and aid, well, Sandy, we must part; I liked you well Sandy, while you were by yourself but when you get into such bad company, I must give up. (\ ?nnrk<?r t And so it was with Cenersl Tnv. I K" _.v lor. Mr. Moses then alluded to the differences that exist between the whifj and democratic parties, and asked whether the? wanted another . high tariff or another United States Bank.? .Suppose, he said, Mr. Fiimore had occupied * the place of George M. Dallas, when the question of the last tariff was decided, whose casting vote parried that measure, what would have been the consequence? Himself the represen- j tative of a tarifl State, he acted on the princi-1 ??????a??mmmm pie, Ibat on constitutional matters there could be no compromise. If there is an act in the whole of Mr. Polk's administration which he censured, it is, that he did not veto the Oregon compromise bill. His excuse was, lor signing it, tha that territory wanted a government; but a military government, under a democratic administration, would have been better than a civil government, the first acts of which would be performed by whig representatives. In respect to the position of South Carolina, the speaker said she was attached to the. Union as any other State; but she was attached to it as our fathers flamed it. She will sustain a position of equality in the Union, and will go to the denth to sustain it. But, if the spirit of abolitionism is to prevail. South Carolina will say to the State of New York, "Let you and I have no more to do with this Union?it is not the Union of the revolution, but the Union of those who are endeavoring, from personal motives, like Nero of old, to fiddle while Rome is burninff." South Carolina fought nobly for Martin Van Buren, the Northern man with Southern feelings; but what has she got by way of gratitude? But he will be consigned to his political grave, and his sou, John Van Buren, will write his epitaph.? He (.Mr. M.) had but little taith in public men, who would be found capable of selling their country for a mess of pottage. (Cheers.) He would ask, who had General Taylor associated with him as Vice President? (Hear.) Millard Filmore. But he would refer to the letter he wrote to one Mr. Allison. (Cheers.) They saw nothing in that letter that could protect them from the old ahu-es of the whig party; nothing that could protect them from having a National Bank; nothing to prevent their having such a Tariff as would elevate the rich upon the shoulders of the poor; nothing in relation to internal improvements, and harbor improvements, that was not purely and essentially whig. (Hear,) He would ask the whigs, did they mean to set a man of straw for the Presidency, who did not belong to the whigs, and yet, if he were elected to.morrow, he would have his cabinet composed of whigs? (Cheers, and cries of "that's it.") Would thev then put such a man in the chair? (No.) Would they also put such a man as Filmore to fill the Vice President's chair? (No, no.) If the.y did, would they have patriotism,and magnanimity, and independence? (No, no.) Would they place Martin Van Buren in the Presidential chair, because he wished the negro population white-washed? (Laughter and cries of no, no.) If they believe (hat Martin Van Buren, or his son, care one fig (or the negro population, they are mistaken. The true state of the matter was this,?Martin Van Buren was endeavoring to erect a platform for his son, or to put down the Southern States. (Cheers.) That was the true state of the question. He would ask them, were they willing that such a slate of things should be brought -u -:J?.... about so that every nigger couiu noc u?n > ? .. hacks? (No, no, and vehement cheering.) That was a glorious response. He would carry home to his friends, in South Carolina, that response. (Renewed cheers.) Yes, they would receive it with?(Here some foolish abolitionist, in the crowd, made an effort to interrupt the speaker, and was soon thrust out the doors, causing at the same time, some confusion, after which the speaker resumed.) South Carolina would firmly support Cass and Butler. (Three cheers for South Carolina.) It would go heart and soul for Cass and Butler, and both New York and ring.) Charleston may have a few that would go for Taylor but the State would go,he pledged himself, lor Cass and Butler. (Immense cheering.) They believed that Cass and Butler were honest politicians. It was said in the South, that General Taylor was a slaveholder, hut he did not say what ho was, and they in the South did not want to have any thing to do with a man, who was alraid to speak, (applause,) or tell them what ho was. (Cheering.) He did not wish to interfere with thejr local nomina. tions for Slato officers, hut the reputation of c-xChancellor Walworth, and Mr. Charles O'Connor, required nothing in recommendation from him. (Vociferous and prolonged cheering )? He would leave them therefore, to themselves. (Cheers.) He woul in conclusion, pledge South Carolina in favor of the Cass and Butler ticket. The speaker concluded amid much applause. Attrocious Mckdkr.?We are called upon to chronicle one of the most heart rending and soiibsickening occurrences that falls to the lot of us frail mortals. Major Adam S. Camp, of our village, was killed on Thursday evening last, by a man named Joseph Glenn, and.under the following circumstances, so far as we can obtain them Glenn had been, and was at the time of the murder, in the employ of Major Camp, as Overseer on his farm, some seven miles south of Spartanburg Court House, near the Glenn Springs road. Major Camp with his wife and daughter had been spending some time at the Springs, and were on their way home in company with several ladies of our village, and his brother Mr. VVm. Camp, and family. When the company arrived near the farm, Major Camp requested them to wail, as he desired to ride over to his place to give some directions to his negrrics, which he did by getting on his wile's horse and side saddle. When he arrived at or near the house of his Overseer he stopped, and whilst giving some directions to his old negro man, at the same time sitting on his horse, was shot in the upper part of the breast, with two balls, from a rifle n the hands of said Joseph Glenn, who had concealed himself in a crib some thirty yards distant, for the diabolical purpose. Major Camp fell dead in a moment, and as the old negro man started to inform the company hard l?y of what was done, Glenn Bred a musket with 16 buck shot at him, though without effect. So soon as the distressing circumstances took place and the murderer had fled, there gathered around the lamented one his little family and friends, whose nnguish and distress can better be imagined than described. He was brought immediately to the rosidence of Colonel Harris of our town, who is the father-in-law of Major Camp, at which place, on the following day, his funeral services were performed by the Rev. J. G. Landrurn, and his remains were consigned to their last resting place in the gravo yard at this place. The murderer was pursued iin m 'diatdy after he committed the deed by the proper authorities and the voluntary service of other gentleman. Ho however gave himself up the next morning, and is now in the jail of this District awaiting his trial. In the death of Major Camp, our community has lost one of its most useful citizens. He was one of our nearest neighbors, and we can bear testimony to the fact that he was nil that could be desired as a friend, kind and accommodating to all. As a husband and father, supenor to any wo ever knew in tenderness and afTecli m towards his family, never happier than when ministering to their comton. S. C. Spartan.

The State prosecutions against the leaders were just commencing. t This, like the Ibrrner movement, has prored 1 the desire of the people to revolt in certain pro- g vinces, principally the Southern, such as Ulster, but at the same time shown their utter inability 0 to cope with the British forces, through the c want of organization and concert.

From the Greenville Mountantrr GEN. JAMES HAMILTON AND LEWIS CASS. General Hamilton, once Governor of Sonth Carolina, a long time member of congress from Ihe Sinte, distinguished for his talents and chivalrous character in every station, and now a planter of the Southern part of Georgia, retired from public life, has addressed a letter of ihe date of Sept. 23, to a friend in Charleston, in answer to one addressed to him on the Presiden tial question. General Hamilton says in the letter, "An intimate personal acquaintance with General Cass enables me to speak of him without any reference to theopinions of others," and he alludes to an acquaintance with General Cass at Washington, as well as in the city of Paris, when General Hamilton was representing the Government of Texas, as Foreign Minister. It was General Hamilton's talents and address that procured the recognition of the Independone of Texas by the British Government, nnd by the French, likewise, and also by other European powers. This was the great preliminary step in the Annexation of Texas to our Union. The impartial opinion of such a man as General Hamilton is surely worth more than the petty slanders of such men as "Ogle" Stewart, of Pennsylvania, who has had the hardihood to charge Cass with Ihe crime of peculation whilst Governor of the Mnribwput Territory, and whoso misrepresenta tinns of truth and fact have been circulated by a few prejudiced Whig partizans, who have persuaded themselves, and endeavor to persuade others, also, to believe every evil report of the Democratic candidate for President. It is honorable to most of the Whig papers and politicians that thoy have disdained to circulate such charges against Cass. We have only room for a short extract from tho letter of General Hamilton. He speaks with the candor and fairness of a high-minded gentleman of both Casi and Taylor. His objection to the latter is political, not personal. He docs not attack private character, and for this.be is to be the more respected; we wishbe was more generally imitated. He speaks as one wbo knows of'Mho talents, tried worth and distinguished public services'* of Gen. Cass. "When I represented the Republic ofTexas, (says General Hamilton,):U the Government of the King of the French, Gen. Cass was our Plenipotentiary. I owe to his zealous friendship and enlightened public spirit, in no small degree, the favorable impression i was ame fo make upon the mind of the then King of the French, in behalfof a country then independent, but now gloriously united to our own, which, in the extent of her territory and grandeur of her future resources, is destined to contribute so much wealth of the whole Union and to the domestic security of the South. "I certainly, at the period to which I allude, could not but have felt much pride as an American, in witnessing the consideration which General Cass enjoyed at the Court ofthe French King, by manners the most bland and unostentatious, by the kindest regard for the wants and convenience of his countrymen, by a hospitality the most cordial and fervent, and by an ability which made our country felt in the Court of every crowned head in Europe. Although I take no part in the election, yet I am induced to believe that, should Genpral Cass occupy the Presidential Chair, the interests ofthe South would be exposed to no peril and sustain no injury at .his hands, In one word, I believe him utterly incapable of sectional injustice to any portion of the Union. "In announcing this declaration, let it not be understood that it is made in any feeling of partisan opposition to the distinguished veteran who is really the only serious competitor Gen. Cass has to deal with in the approaching struggle. No, sir! If I had thrown myself into this contest with all the vehemence I once felt in past public canvasses, I could not find it in my heart to titter one word in unkindness or disparagement of this gallant old soldier." ? ? Serious Accident*?A letter received at this late date informs us of quite a serious accident, which happened on the 2nd of Sept. in this District, and resulting in death. Mrs. Julia M. Ti\nall, wife of Mr. John J. Tindall accompanied by her husband, mother and younger brother, was riding in a buggy, for the purpose of visiting a brother residing on the oilier side of Santee river. A little below Mr. S. Richbourg's, the horse took fright and, running a war. threw Mr. Tindall and the brother out I ol the buggy. She ran the risk ofjumping out and struck her head with much force against the hard clay, as the horses were ascending the hill. Some suppose that her head struck a flat part of a root extending from a stump near which she lay when found. Almost lifeless, she was conveyed to the house of Mr. Richbourg. The mother let herself out of the bug. gy and and escaped with many but not serious bruises. Language fails to describe her anguish on seeing the condition of her daughter, nor were the feelings and grief of the husband less keen. After several days ofintense suffering, which she bore with fortitude and resignation, this sad accident resulted in the death of Mrs. Tindall, at the early age of her 21st year. She was a member of the Baptist Church and beloved by all who knew her. Her husband, parents, relatives and numerous friends mourn her death as a grievous loss. Hvmler Banner. Steamboats?Merchandize?Cotton.? The steamer Cassandra left this place on Tucs day night last on her upward trip to Knoxville. This excellent boat has never missed a trip during the ten and a hall months that she has been running?a success never before the lot of any other boat, and a presage that the Tennessee river is to be navigated with as much speed and certainty as any other stream tributary to the "father of waters." We notice that the fall and winter stocks of goods are coming earlier this year than former ly. From the numbpr of wagons daily arriv. ing from the head of the road, we look for a much larger amount of goods to pass through this place for distant points than was ever before carried. The facilities afforded bv South ern Railroads for Rp"cdy, safe, and cheap transporlation is drawing merchants from remote points to this route, and when the Railroad is finished to this place merchandize will he wag. oncd more than a hundred miles from the riv. er. The Cotton crop in North Alabama is not so large this year as it'was last. Less Cotton was planted, as the planters did not wish to grow Cotton at such low prices, when their lands were as fine as any in the country for the production of grain. Rnt notwithstanding less Cotton will he raised in North Alabama we believe mor will he shipped over the Roads to the Southern cities. The experiment of sending Cottqn South was tried la?t year under disadvantageous circumstances, but the merchants and planters were generally well pleased. If we are not mistaken one hundred wagons or more can he regularly employed on the road between Dalton and this place during the winter, hauling goods from and Cotton and produce to the head ofthe Road.?Chattanooga Gazelle, Sept. 29. American Stacks in London ?The New York Journal ofComrnere, of Saturday afternoon says: '.Mr. Corcoran's arrangement fi>r the sale of $ 5,000,000 of the new U. S. loan in London, does not appear to huve been definitely concluded at the lime ot the America's departure, though nothing unfavorable had occurred. 44 A.t ]#>nst. this ntntR of the case is to be ill ferred from the only letter of his that has been made public to day. The senior member of the house with which the negotiation was pending, was absent from England, and Mr. Corcoran himself had also gone to France for a few clays. "He still expects to return in the steamer of the 23d September. His negociatior.s had been conducted with privacy, and none of the circulars mention them, nor do they appear to have become known at all in the monetary circles of London. "Meanwhile American stocks maintained their prices, with a moderate business, but not more so than was proportioned to the general dullness of trade. Is Poverty a Crime??Certainly it must be so, for wo see the rich (perhaps) rascal courted, his offences forgotten, while the poor man, with no stain on his character but poverty, is shunned and ot no repute. There is redeeming grace in gold, which hides iniquity.
