JOHN C. CALHOUN.
" lie whs a man of intellect merely ; a statesman
who fashioned l:is~policy upon the reason
that was in him. His "cuius fed upon the aliment
created by itself He celebrated his prim
eipies like the silk worm, by process unseen of
men. lie was a man without recreations nr
pastimes, and so had less sympathy with t!ie
world around him Ih.in beflls apolitical leader,
lie spent Ids days in constructing theories
which no one could defend like himself; and
when he perished from amongst men, the better
part of his teachings perished with liitu.
"If we are left to the instruction of those I
who presume to Apeak in his name, what legaVy
and genius have we but discontent, disorganization,
and disunion."
Such y4he language which tne picayune employs
in "reference to the most practical ami
successful statesman who has impressed his
* character upbn the last half century. Never
was a more unfounded or erroneous estimate
made of any man. John C. Calhoun's char icteristic
quality was the practical, real, and tangible
nature of his ideas and theories. None
of our statesmen were as successful as he in
carrying their principles into practical operation:
none have left behind such rich legacies
of wisdom and useful legislation. It is true he
4 was "a man without recreation or pastilles"?
that is, who did not dissipate his mind and
strength in the pleasures of sense and the frivolities
of the world?who did not gamble or
drink, or atteud races, or hobnob with dcmatronues.
But still lie had his recreations in the
l?osom of a happy family, in the circle of devoted
friends, in the pure, innocent, and elevating
delights of rural life.
What did he not accomplish ? Starting in
pub'ic life at an eventful period, he was the
leading spirit of the most brilliant era in our
history since the administration of Jefferson.?
He was the life and spirit of the war of 1812,
which he contributed powerfully to conduct to
a successful termination. When the war had
closed, aud the absence of a circulating medimn
and the exigencies of the times required it,
he was the framer of the Bank of the United
Stales, and so organized that institution as to
impart to it great efficiencN', and restrain its evil
tendency. In Congress ho was ever the leader
in all the measures calculated to advance the
prosperity of the nation, without violating the
republican features of the Constitution. As

ciURrman of tee Uommiuee Of yt iiy B ana |
iy the House of Representatives, no-one who
ever filled tlri# office was more prompt and
practical. Transferred from a Legislative positiou
to an Executive Bureau, be evinces the
most admirable capacity for the practical details
of new and complicated duti^. As Secretary
of War besjras ever been regarded as the model
of Executive officers. The tales and regulations
establis{jfcd by hiin have become regular
precedents in all tfa departments. From Secretary
of WaryJie became Vice President of the
Unitea States. Who ever presided over the I
Consqgiut Fathers ol the nation with more dignity,
ttith a nicer regard for parliamentary
law, or a more prompt knowledge of the details
of legislation i
Transferred by his sense of duty to his State,
from the ch?ir to the floor of the Senate, we :
find hirn battling with unconquerable heroism J
i.) behalf of the rights'of the States, resisting i
monopolies and oppression'of one portion of the j
Union by another. And was lie here a uiere the- '
orist? No; he succeeded in arresting the evils
he resisted, he overcame the principle of protective
tariffs, established the doctrine of revenue
duties as preparatory to free trade, and maintained
the strict construction of the Constitution.
ft was in vain Webster, Adams, and 1
Clay, those be/tux i.lf.al of the Picayune's prac- 1
tica! statesmen, endeavored to foist upon the
nation their higlr tariffs, their American sys- j
terns, and their grand schemes of internal im- j
provements. 'l'hey all fell before the battle
axe of the great theorist of South Carolina.?
What of them now remains?
Then, tot), to crown his career of victory j
over theories flnd demngngnoism, he aided pow- j
e fully in extinguishing the great banking sys- !
tern, which had become a Upas tree of corrnp- i
tion and evil to the nation. Did he not succeed
in this ? Who was the great, the eloquent, the
invincible advocate of the principle of separating
the.banks and the Government?of the subO
^
Treastffy system! ishot this an existing practicaJ
measure? ^fO'trborn do we owe it but to I
the great theorist ofSo^th Carolina? As Sec- j
retary of Slate, tdrVhich he was called by the ;
unanimous voice of the people, he arranged and
consummated tjie annexation of Texas. That j
-" "I" "'?? n niaasure. Why?every- |
?u>v-v " , . . ,
thing be ever advocated may be now found and I
acknowledged Iruth or a real fact? He was
the practical statesman par excellence of the )
nation. True, he reflected an elaborated well !
bis ideas before he put them into form; he was 1
a theorist in the high, the exalted, the Bacoui- 1
an sense, the man who reasoned a posteriori,
who collected within the'powerful crucible of
bis intellect, all the facts and ideas bearing up- !
oil a question or principle, and having them sub- ,
jected to a powerful test, brought forth pure j
gold of truth and wisdom. It was this re- i
markable talent of reflection, of deep thought
of careful examination, which, united with a
great contempt for the arts of the demagogue, j
obtained for John C. Cidhoun the character of |
the me?e man of theory and iutcl'ect, among ;
superficial word-mongers and admirers of temporary
expedents and quid mine politicians.
But the Picayune refers particularly to Mr.
Calhoun's jealousy of federal encroachments on
the rights of the States, as proofs of the impracticable
character of his mind and opinions.?
And here, to show the competency of our cotemporary
to determine matter of this sort, we
will g?v? 8 slight example of his own practical
tendencies, of the lucid and common-sc-use style

GOV. QUITMAN AND THE GOVERNMENT.
No one has given even a casual glance at the
"signs of the times,since the present abolition
dynasty at Washington tyttne into power, could
fail to notice the continued and marked efforts
on its part, of bringing into disrepute the powers
and dignity of the separate States. The
Government has let no occasion pass without
making manifest its design ofconceutrating all
the power within its own hands-, and leaving
the State powerless; so that whatever the (ion
end Government does, whatever unauthorized
powers it may assume, to the detriment it may
of the rights of the States, must not be gainsayed
by them. This design on the part of the
General Government, to lowei the dignity ot ?*i
sovereign Stale, is peculiarly and forcibly illus
trated ia the case of Gov. Quitman, of Mississippi.
He has 1 een arrested at the instance of the
Government, and is now in New Orleans to
answer the charge, baseJ upon rumor, of participating
in the late Cuban ex|>cditiou. No
one believes him guilty of the charge ?not
even the Government itself, which is apparent
from one fact He has been forced to resign
his seat as Governor of Mississippi?a position
to which lie was elevated by a grateful people,
with a majority almost unprecedented?depriving
his constituents of services to which they
were entitled?hurriedly dragged to New Orluune
unit ulipp nil this haste and annareut so
licitude lor the strict enforcement oi' law, the
glorious and justice-loving Government finds
itself not ready for trial, and holds the Governor
to bail it) the pitiful sum of one thousand dollars.
li it had had any ground upon which to hose a
hope for conviction, it would certainly held him
to hail in a much larger sum tbfui this. It requires
not the aid of a microscope to see the
grand.aim and design in this whole a flair. It
is manifest from all the circumstances surrounding
the case, that it is not the desire lor an im
partial administration of the laws ; hut if we
reflect for a moment, and notice the high and
manly 3tand assumed by Gov. Quitman, in favor
of the rights of the States, and against the j
high-handed usurpation of the present frccsoil j
dynasty, we see at once the secret of the whole
is a sort of petty revenge. The gallant ex- ;
Governor had been too bold and fearless in his i
denunciations of Federal encroachments?had j
stood too firmly by the cause of the South, to i
suit the freesoil sensibilities of the Fillmore
Cabinet; hence such relentless persecution.
Let us look North for a moment, and see
what is the fact, in regard to the strict enforcement
of law in that region. The Fugitive slave
Kill, as nlain a constitutional enactment as was
ever passed, nut more than four mouths ago,
in the city of Boston, was completely nulliticd
and set at naught; and though the fact was
brought to the notice of the Kxveutive, he contented
himself with writing a long letter of excuse,
expressing the hope that the good
people of Boston would do a little better
in future. This shows how matters
stand. Hut let the Government do its best; let
it vent its spleen on Mississippi, by dragging her
Governor from her bonh-rs; but it can never
lessen the love and esteem which the .Southern
people hear towards that gallant patriot. Never.

A Wah.mnu Voice.?The Hon. James K.
Paulding, one of the wisest and purest men of
this country, concludes one of his recent communication
to the Southern Press under the
signature of "A Northern man and a friend to
the Union," witfP this solemn and emphatic
warning:
"1 have lived almost four-score years; I have
passed through every grade of life, from that
of a poor boy, self-educated and self desendent,
to a station among the highest of the laud,
which 1 attained without the sacrilice of my
principles or my independence.
During the whole of this long pilgrimage, 1
have been from habit and inclination conversant
with hooks; and have thus added t the
experience of a long life, the lessons of the past;
and from this experience and those lessons, I
am inevitably brought to the conviction that
the people of the South have now nothing to
depend mi for their future safety, but united aetiuii
in self defence. By this they will preserve
themselves in the Union. All other hope ate
idle; all oilier expedients but daggers turn- :l
against their own bosoms. They must as.-i rt
their own rights, and protect themselves, lor
they have no other protectors. The brand of
fanaticism is applied to the homes of the people
and must he quenched now or never. Time

Tiik Jkws.?.Yrtr Jersey.?On the petition
of the Seventh Day Baptists, a hill has been

process, except in criminal causes, on the
seventh day of the week, against those who
observe that day as their Sabbath. It also ex'

lli^ht.s of Coiiscinirc.?One of the clause in
the new constitution adopted I)}- the people of
iidiauu, provides that "u<> person shall be rcnleied
incompetent as a witness in consequence
of opinions on mat tors of religion."
CoTfwN.?Our telegraphic despatch shows
another tumble of prices in the Liverpool market.
A panic lias struck cotton, and "no mistake."
That it is a panic and nothing else, we
believe. The world at peace, money and
credit easy, manufacturing prosperous, and the
raw material scarce, there is not a solitary sound
reason for the decline of 3 or 4 cents within
the past six weeks. No one we believe, except
Mr. G wathiney estimates the crop over 200,200,000
bales. He sticks to his extravagant
figures. And be he a true or a false prophet, he
: has the ruin of hundreds offamilies to answer for.
When the world gets over its flight, when the
English have dipped pretty deeply into the market
nnd rensn'n mid fiefs resume their lemti
I mate sway over the minds of men, prices will
liault in their downward tendency and react.
They may go still lower before this happens
for when confidence is lost there is no telling
to what figure it will drop. But the pendulum
must swing back with the same force and momentum
with which it swings forward. Meantime
planters who are not obliged to sell, had
better not increase the panic by forcing their
crops on this mrket.
Columbus (Go) times.
cottox Chop.?In the report of our Cotton
j market in our last issue, we stated that the Flint
j Kivt r crop was nearly all in, and instead of the
j crop exceeding last year's by 10 a 15 per cent,
as was generally believed, until the first of De:
comber, it is found that it turns out short of the
| last crop. Since making up that report, our
attend' n his been particularly called to this
subject, and we have made inquiry as to the
number of cotton yet to be received, and the
crops as compared with the last year.
From the best information we can obtain, we
find there i< not MOO bales of cotton to be rei
reived and not 000 bales left in all for shipi
mont. This is unprecedent for the Flint River,
for there has been no season until the present,
that there has iiotjiecn a large part of the crop
oil hand awaiting shipment after the first of
March.
It is believed now that the whole Flint River
crop falls short of last year fully 15 per cent,
which is the shortest cotton crop that has been
j made for some years, notwithstanding the inj
crease of planting.?Albany Patriot.
Profits of Plunk Rnnrls.?The Syracuse
and Oswego plank road is about 24 miles in
length and, including its eleven toll houses,
was constructed at a cost of $43,904. lip to
the time of holding the first anual meeting in
December, there had been received for tolls
8f?,757?the road having been in operation less
than a year.
Liability of Newspaper Subscribers.?The
liability of subscribers to newspapers and periodicals
is not, in many cases, duly considered.
A case has recently been decided, which will
awaken attention on the subject. Mr. Jasper
Harding, of Philadelphia, not long since recovered
a large sum (about 8150 we believe) for a
subscription to the Pennsylvania Inquirer, of a
man residing in Rhode Island. The circumstances
were these: The subscriber took the pa
per for some time, and then sent to the publisher
a notice of discontinuance, without forward
iug the money for payment. The publisher
took no notice of this, nor of several subsequent
notices ofivfus.il to take the papers from the
post olhce.. The result was, that notwithstanding
the Rhode Islander did not receive the papers
for several years, yet he was forced to pay
.Mr. Harding the whole amount np to the period
claimed by the bill.?Farmer and .Mechanic.
Judge Parsons delivered a charge recently to
a grand jury in Philadelphia, in which he stated
that the Macks of that city supplied nearly
one-third of the criminals; while tlu Ledger
says they are hardly more in number than oneeighth
of the population. It says also, that
"these care cankered, famished and destitute
free blacks exhibit a picture of outcast wretchedness
at which humanity shudder."
(2<)rr,rnmrni Finnttrcs.?The U. S. Treasury
statement just.published shows a net amount of
public monevs in the Treasury subject to a draft
to be 814,^2,201 25, of which 82?G15,000
arc in the Sub-Treasury, New York, and 8'v
700,000 in the Mint at Philadelphia.
Who ark Y"ur Aristocrats.?Twenty
years ago this one butchered; that one made
candles; another sold cheese and butter, a fourth
carried on a distillery; another was a contractor
on canals; others were merchants and mechanics.
They are acquainted with both ends
of society?as their children will he after them,
though it will not do to say so out loud. For
often you shall liud that these toiliu worms
hatch butterllios, and they live about a year.
Death brings division of property; and it
brings new fanciers; the old agent is discharged
the young gentleman takes his revenues, and
begins to travel?towards poverty, which he
reaches before death?or his children do, if he
do not. So that in fact though there is a sort
of moneyed rank, it is accessible to all; three
I good seasons of cotton will send a generation
! of men up, a score of years will bring them all
down, and s-nd their children again to labor.
The father grubs, aud grows rich; his children
sitnl. and u-.e the money; their children inherit
lix isi.. 'iud go to the shiftless poverty; their
child, cis reimigorated by fredi plebeian blood,
and by the smell of the clod, come up again.

Sentiment in South Carolina.
The National Intelligencer, in the course of
i n most able article on the condition of things
in South Carolina, cites the following article
from the Catmlen Journal. That paper, supposing
that the State should secede and that the
Government of the United States should blockade
her ports, says:
" We believe England would ncknowledge
us as an indcjicndent Republic, and come in
and trade with us, simply passing these blockading
ships by and coming in: and if in their
passage those ships should fire on theio, why a
broadside from an English sleams'iip would
settle it, ice think, rather to the disadvantage of
a Yankee revenue blockade culler. Recollect,
our ships that have done good service against
English ships have had some Southerners aboard,
and in their crews no disaffected persons. This
would ho different. England has never shirked
a tear fir few of crippling her commerce., for it
seems to flourish by war. She would clear the
blockade., for the reason that she would bo glad
to see this Confederacy broken up? because
she trould be fighting against the North, her natural
liotils of the loom. She would doit, because
then she would have an open and free
American port She would do it, in short, because
interest would drive her to it"
This is the language of an American Editor!
It was said that, in the war of the Revolution,
there were more tories in South Carolina than
any other State in the Union; and it would
seem, from the above paragraph, that the breed
is not yet extinct Certain it is, this Editor
has none of the blood of Sumpter, or Marion,
or Rutledge in Bis veins.?Pel. Intelligencer.
The above from the Petersburg Intelligencer
is truly rich?like its elder the National
inh.)iicri>r\ri>r?it docs not exchange with us, but.
receiving its cue,from the latter paper, umbra like,
has shadowed out its views. In the first place,
we can inform the Petersburg man that we are not
ambitious to be called an American Editor, the
term takes in too wide a sphere.' And wonderful
to tell, he has heard that during the War of the
Revolution, there were more Tories in South
Carolina, than in any other State in' the Union.
There were a great many here, but a large supply
of them came from Virginia?men who breathed
upon the soil that ga\c birth to Washington?
