The Weather.-After a cessatiot of wet wea ther for upwards of a week, several heavy alrowers of rain full in this neighborhood, on Friday last. aDomestic Writing Paper..-We have in our possession, some good writing paper. made at the Greenville paper mill. as ve are informed. its quality is not of the finest, but its texture is certainly good. and it is well adapted to all or dinary business purposes. One great recon mendation, is its cheapness. We occasionally write upon it, our editorial notions. Domestic Iron Manufactory.-We have re cently seen at the Store of lessrs. Nicholson & Presley, a keg of* nails which were tmanufac tared at soine iron works in Spartanburg Dis trict. We unhesitatingly pronounce theta e qual, if not superior to any which come to this market, from the North. We heartily wish stc cessto the enterprising proprietoas of these iron works. Two candidates have offered themselves for the office of State Senator rom Charleston Ker Boyce and Juo. S. Ashe. Both have de. clared themselves in favor of 31r. Van Buren for President, and Col. J. P. Richardson for Governor. The following gentlemen were, on Monday, the 14th inst., elected members of the Town Council of Aiken, to serve for one year:-Ii tendant-Capt. Wm. Robertson, Jr. Wardens -Stephen Owens, Jas. Tupper, Lewis Jones, Jr. S. Lee Allison. At an election held at Greenville Court House,S.C.on the 14th inst.. Win. Blasingame, Esq. was elected Intendant, and J. Choice, Esq., Dr. J. Crittenden, Col. Tandy Walker, and Capt. It. Loveland, Wardens, for the en suing year. The hharleston Board of Health report the deaths of twenty persons in that city. during the week ending 13th inst-stranger's fever, four. Ve have yielded reluctantly to the rgent request of some of our patrons. to republish the Clarendon Resolutions of August. 1834. In these resolutions Col. J. P. Richardson concur red, and this stale matter is now revived.doubt less, for the purpose of exciting prejudice a gainst him, as a candidate for Governor, and probably against some of his friends, who are seeking other offices. If however. Col. R. alone, or a few other individuals wvith him were concerned in this mtatter. we should leave them to, take care of themselves. but we regard the prosperity and especially the tranquility of the.State as involved, and we mttst say a few words of explaniation and ca.,tion. Who shall be our next Governor, is a question of subor binate concern, which should not affect our District elections, and wvhich has been already sufficiently discussed in our columns. bnt it is a much graver question whether the angry feel ings exhibited in the Nullification controversy shall be wantonly renewed when the merits of the contest htave long been adjuted. We can not expect that our Union friends will tamely submit to be continually rated for their past errors, without making some efforts for their own vindication and some assaults upoa their an cient a'dversaries. We are as tirmly convinced now its we ever we. e of the trutth and value of thae doctrine of Nullification. but we are content that it should be held in reserve until an occasion for its application be presented, anid that the adoption of this creed shall not be the exclusive test of political merit ini all contingencies. A good knight does not always sleep in his armour, and a true patriot will not stigmatize his allies, and reinounce their aid, because they may have once wvarred against him. In a controversy so king and bitter as that which prevailed in this State concernitig the proper remedy for the oppressions of the Pro-] tectory System, it is natural to suppose that passion sometimes usurped the place of reason, and thaterrors on both sides Pmay have been corn. mitted. In the letter of Cul. Richardson's pub lished in out last number, he distinctly announ ees that if the Tariff controversy should recur, he would support the State wvith all his energy, without stickling about the particular mnode of action, and after such a declaration, must lie beI forever proscribed on account of his first disa greemnent with the majority of ouar citizens? The Clarendon Resolutions were Founded upon tate misapprehension by the Union party of the views and objects of their opponlents i n< advocating the Oath of Allegiance. The Utnion party supposed that the N~ullifiers in supporting this measure, intended to renoutnce all obedi a ence to the Federal Government, its Lawvs, I Treaties, and Constitiutioin, baut when th is wvas disavowed by the Nullifiers, in te Report of Decemaber 1834, which is commonly called the Cemparomise,the Union mein renountced theJpur pose they had formed utider -ai ;ipprehension. Gov. Me~tirile,amnd have never since inaae tinj opposition to what was improperly called thI Test Outh. The number of persons present, at the late Democratic asseinlage at'the Indian Springs Gn., is estimated by a gentleman who was pres ent, at from ten to thirteen thousand. He be lieves that ten thousand voters were present IVerimont.-The National Initelligeneer the or gan par excellence of the Wiigs, thus notice, the result of mie elections in Vermont. It it well known that Slade and Everett who are elected by the whigs, are leaders of the Aboli tionists in Congmss. Nothing miore clearly shows which wayNorthern Whigs incline,thai the short comment of the lutelligencer upon the Vermont elections. "VERMON.-The mmtaority of Horace Everett for Coigress, at the late electioin, over his cip lponent, is 2,222 votes! In this district hereto fore, there have been sometimics two or three trials before an electioncould be made, so close has been the division of partierin it. "Mr. Slade's manjority in his District is he tween three and four thotismid votes, and Mr. Hull's in his district is over two thousanid votes! What a glorious State is Vermont!" 0 Whig writers constantly attrilmte the peci niary distress of the country, to the past and present Administrations. Johin Tyler Ieir can didate for the Vice-Presidency, is doulitless, good anuthority with them. From the subjoined extract, it appears that Mr. Tyler ascribed the great commercial emi. barassment which prevailed in the country upwards of twenty years ago, to the Banking system. We know not, what may be the ii. pinion of A r. Tyler now; mnor is it a matter or amly consequence. When lie miade the follow ing remarks, hie! was a tmetiber of the Uniited States Senate, and-doubtless, spoke the hottest sentiments of his heart. Ile says in a speech delivered by him in the Seiate. April 5, 1819 : "For one, .(ays M r. Tyler) I enter may pro test agaist the Banking Systemi. as comadneted inl this cointry-a s% stem iot to Ie supported by any correct principlesof political ecoinomy; a gross deltsion; a drenni of a visionry; a sys. tem which haits done more to corrupt the morals of society thani any thing else, which has intro duced a struggle lor vealth, instead of that lion. orable struggle which govermin the actions ofa patriot. and makes ambition virtue; which has mnade the husbandmni spurn his cottage, and introduced a spirit at variance with the sirmil-ii city of our institutions. I call upon the warmm advocates oftime Banking systemi to surrender their errors. Shall I tako then by the hand and lead them through our cities? Bankrupt cy meets us at every step-ruin stares us every wihere in the face. Shall I me told of tie beine fits arising to commerce from the concenti ation of capital? A way with the delbtsion-exiper. iece has exposed its fallacy-true. for a mo smient it has operated as a stimmils, bt, hke arden spirits, it has produced activity and eiier gy but or a mnte; relaxation has followed. and the terror of death has ensied. When von first open, the goddess, pretending to be weilth, stands at the door inviting all to enteroand re ceive accommodations. Splendid palaces a rise-the ocean is covered trith sails-4mt some al. teration in the state of the country takes place, and when the thoughtless adventurer, seated in the midst f hisfamily in the midst of perimenent security. sketches to himselflong and halcyon days, his pros pects are ocershadowed, and nisery. ruin. and Wakrupery maketheir uppcurance in the form of Bank curtailments. If this be true. and I appeal to the knowledge of all men for its triuth, I de rmand to know, if you can put down the systien too soon-can we too soon escape the danger with which we are surrmounded." Tie Hooe Case.-A great deal has been said in Whig newspapers all over the country, in ibuse of the course of Mr. Vane Buren, in the celebrated case of Lieumntenant ooe. We copy time followimng on this subject, from tihe Lexing ton (Va.) G azette, a Whig paper: "Bly time common law and uniform prac tice imn time navy under it, negroes are comipetenit witmnesses agaimnst white men. They mare not permitted to testify against white umenm im Vir ginia, because that is very properly forbiddenm by an express law ofthe State. Thmey are good witniesses, however, in mianmy of time free 8tamtes. They were, then, commpetemm legal witnmesses in thecase. Thme quiestion thmen arises, whazt righmt ims the Federal Fxecttve to repeal time laws of thme land. merely becausme he maya1 deem thmem in expedient? Are omur Whmig friends-are the rreetmen of this land-pmepared to surrenider this monmstromms and despotic authority into thme bamnds oftihe Federal Exective? Yet thmis is thme rery principiles involved in the case, for the Pros idemnt is umniversally censured by time Whmig press, becamise he would not repe:ml the law of he land authorizing negroes to give evidence. mgainst white men. As a wimig, as a Republi-: :an, intensively jealous of Federal enchromach nents; nay more, as an American freeman. we, ror one, enter our protest againist smuch a mon .trous usurpation of power by thme Federal Executive. "Let us not be misunderstood. We are no dvocates for negroe evidencee amainst white mien. On the contrary, we are stronigly oppmo. ed to it.
