- R AHAMVILL, Aug. 15. 1844. the E'tors of the Courier: -Gentlemen-It seems that-some, per ,sons are determined to misrepresent and - ervert the proceedidgs 'of the Bluftou dinnerto Mr. RUKTT. In your paper of yesterday, you say that you have "got written 'information that (among other things, which you men tion) the" Hon.' W.. F..CoL.cobK got up the whole afair-did t all, Sic." Now gentlemen.. as I am not at all trouble with a prurient desirefar'oewspa per notoriety, I should not, under other circumrsances, condescend to notice the weak inventions .of those "Chroniclers of snal! Beer." But as its evident that there is a design -to get up the impression that Mr. CAL -HoUN and other distinguished gentleman -of otir -iiate,' were assailed and denounced at the Bluffton dinner, I am not so sofi as to cllow this game to played of army ex %pecse. It is manifest, from the connection in which'ny-name is used, that it was in 'tended to convey the insinnation that I .am responsible for all the "sayings and doings" on the occasion referred to which the imag-ination of these- informers have conjured up to sustain the issue they are seeking to make. I must protest,' how ever, against being rnade the. subject of any such "poetic license." Let a few i7ords put to rest these tri flings with truth. I reside 25 miles from Blufton, and at -tedded the-diuter as an "invited guest." I arrived in the. morning, heard Mr. RaETT's addrest, dined, and returned -horne the evening of the same day. In reply to a.sentiment which had refe rence to myself, I made a few remarks. advocating decidedly, and without any reservation, the call of a State Conven Ain for the purpose of redeeming the -solemn pledge of the State, and resibtiu, in any way the'c6naventioni might deter mine best, tha.'pynm which for 20 years we had been tabLhito believe, and did be. lieve, was unconstitutional and oppres *sive. In the course of my remarks I al luded. to Mr. CALHOUs-spoke of hitn as a "great and goo I man"-(a title I would mot apply to any other statesman in our country)-expressed the opinion that his difference from. us should he a subject .more of "sorrow than of anger"-and -concluded by saying. that I believed the -State ifunited. waq equal to the contest -and it Was my hope that she woul I he united, and he found moving on in the path she had already pointed out for her self,. even althougb "Achilles kept his lent." This, gentlemen, is "the head and front -of my ofending-it bath this extent-no more." Let those who are disposed to do zo, make the most of it. You Way judge from this sample wh;.t is the staple of your correspondent's yarn. Asfar as l am concerne$1 I pronounce the statement, and all its inuendoes desti aute of the least foundation and as s-her a 'fabrication as ever was atteirpiedfor any yu-pose. To difer, gentlemen, with Mr. CAL. Bown is one thing, , to denounce him is another and a very impertant thing. The first is the previlege of the humble st citi .zen and with the humblest I claim to e.rer -cise it. The latter is what I net-r will do ustil .1 have1frgotten the Ieiois of my -youth, and have ceased to venerate all that is enabling in virtue, exalted in intel dect, or unaspected in patriotism. - In -conclusiou permit me to say that the ;citizens.of.Bluffion are a high minded, in telli'gent and hospitahle peop'le, fully ca pa. ble of managing all their A-affairs," wh'eth :er private or :polit-ical, without any for .eign' aid. The entertsijament they gave was their own voluntary tribune of respect to their zealous and faitfl.

A Commit tee from the Ygung Men's Democratic Association was also. in-attend ance, and by their- Chairman, the delega tion were received, and welcomed in the name of the Democracy of Charleston generally, and particularly by the Young Men's Democratie Association, whose guests while in Charleston. The Georgia Delegation, and Dr. McWhorter, the Chairman of the Richmond delegates, replied to the Chairman of the Committee of the Association in a brief but elouuent address. A procession was then formed, and with -heating drums and banners flying." the Georgia Delegation were es corted to the Charleston Hotel. Among the Banners w*e were peculiarly struck with this new hanner of the Young Men's Democratic Association, first used on this auspicuous occasion ; the design is chaste and beautiful. and the execution unsur passed. On arriving at the Hotel, three enthusiastic cheers were given for Georgia which were responded to by the like num ber - from the Georgia Delegates for our own Calhoun. The guests were then abandoned to their. entertainers of the Yonng Men's Demo cratic Association who conducted them to the dinuer table, and after a sumptuous repast, served up in the best style of Nick. erson, many toasts conplimentary ofour sister State were drunk and responded to by others ir' compliment of our own State. The entire Georgia Delegation in the evening attended a joit meeting of the Democratic party and the Young Men's Democratic Association. We had heard that our old friend Dr. Arnold of Abbeville. was a candidate for the Senate from tha! District, and alaho' for some years past he has acted with the. whiiga, that he had now declared himself opposed to the whig candidate for the.Pre sidency, and to the leading meaqures of the party. We are happy to have the in telligence coafirtned, by the following ar tele from the last Abbeville Banner-Pen dielon Messenger. . '-On Monday last, Dr. A. B. Arnold having been called on for his views upon the questions of the day, delivered a short address to about two hundred persons, who had assembled in the Court House. He ex pressed himself opposed to Mr. Clay, because he had disregarded the Compro inise -ct and avowed himself in favor of the tariffof'42. and opposed to the annex ation of Texas It was his opinion that it was indispensably necessury for us to pos sess Texas to throw off our redundaut ne gro population, that unless we had such outlet, in less than half a century they would overrun us. -He was opposed to the present Tariff, and thoughtit night be reduced peaceably. if the States would unite and present it to Congress, doinand ing it as a matter of right. He was op posed to the distribution of the proceeds of the sales ofrthe publie lands, and internal itmprovements, hecause their elfect was to raise, the Tariff-in a word wo ieay vent ture to claim the Doctor as a Democrat." Withdrawal of Mr. Tyler.--At the very moment that our paper was going to press, we received the Mladisonian con taining the address of the President to his friends throughout the Union. He takes a rapid and graphic sketch of party rela tions, both before and since his elevation to the Presidency. He deals a dignified .but powerful blow, at ahe- Federal Whigs, and triumphantly vindicates himself from their false clamor. He looks ro thteefforts of the Detnocratic party, to vindicate the priniples5 to which he adheres with uwa v'ering faith. "This is a mnost important step in otur political affairs. Antd, since the President has. with the consent of his friends. secen fit to take it, we hail it witht unaffeeled pleasure. As we have said before, we throw open to Mr. Tyler and his friends, the doors of thes party temple, as wide as the whole Untion. We are ready atnd willing to go forth to battle with them, against the common enemy ; being well assured. thtat' thecir valor and their zeal will tell well upon thte ranks of the foe. Mar. Tyler will scarcely find the "retirement" to which he alludes. His native atnd be. loved Virginia, may still have fresh honors in reserve for him.
