The article on the controversy between j

spirit deserve much commendation, espe*
*' - e i L
cmlly considering that it comes irom tne |
very arena of conflict. Although we do
not coincide with the writer** opinion as
to (he extent and influence of abolitionism
at the north, nor concur in his recommendation
of a convention of the slave,
holding states at the present time, we
still commend the article to the attention
of our readers. . /
The article on the "Liberal and strict
constructions of the Constitution" con.
sists chiefly of extracts from "the Reviiw
of Judge Story's Commentaries," with
^ some introductoty remarks, embracing a
brief, and very good, though not. in all
parts,a perfectly accurate history of po1i
ical parties in this country. The leading
object of the article seems to be tc
discuss the question, whether or not
the states of the Union were, before the
adoption of the federal constitution, distinct
and independent communities, or
'*one people;*' and the position is assumed
that upon the decision of this question
depends the present relations of the federal
and state governments to each other*
This was a position assumed by leading
individuals of both the nullification and
onion parties in their controversies with
each other nine or ten years ago. In
dissenting from such men as Webster and
Adams, on the one hand, and Calhoun
and Hayne, on the other, it behoves tu to
speak with caution. Yet it always seemed
tons that in this respect both sides
were wrong. The powers of the British
government are to be ascertained only by
referring to the history of the country,
because there is nothing more definite and
certain to which reference can be made.
But in this country, the case is different;
here we have a written constitution
which points aut clearly and in the plainest
language the powers of the genera'
government, as will the relations of that
and the state governments to each other.
Whatever were tha relations of the seDa.
- ?-r - W ~~
rate states to each other, before the adoption
of the constitution, it is plain that
m their design in adopting that instrument
was to change, or in some way modify
these relations; and it is equally plain
that to ascertain what change was made,
we must look to the instrument itself, and
not to the jirevioiu history of the communities
which adopted it. Their previous
history may shew u*their reasons for making
a change, but not what the change
. was. Suppose that instead of several
colonies, this country had, before the revolution,
constituted but a single colony,
extending over the same territory which
actually constituted thirteen colonies,
and that it had in this way, with naipgle
legislature and a single Executive, passed
.
through the revolution, and the few years
which followed before the adoption of the
present constitution; and suppose that the
generation then living had seen fit to di*
vide their territory by the lines which
now separate it into distinct States, and
adopt at the same time, first in general
convention, and then in distinct convenj
tions, our present Federal constitution,
and that they had also adopted their
respective sinte constitutions,?in such
case, wherein would the relative powers
the Federal and State Government
I differ from what they now are? We can|
not see that there would be a shadow of
! difference. Sirict constructionists, it |
s -ems to u?, ought to be the last men to |
dej-art from the letter of the constitution |
for the purpose of defining the powers j
whicli it confers. A resort to disputed i
noints of history to limit these powers bv |
I implication, is a hazardous experiment
for them. If others do it to extend the
powers of the Government, let them
rattier hold these others to the letter of the
constitution than follow their example.
If terms or phrases of doubtful import occur
in the constitution, it may be proper
to resort, for their explanation, to the
history of the times. But the condition
of those who adopted it is a proper object :
of inquiry only for the purpose of determining
whether or not they had the ,
rightful power to assume the obligations
imposed by it. This ascertained, the
proper inquiry then is, not what they
were before its adoption, but what they
made themselves hv that act, and this
we repeat, is to be done, and cin be done,
only by looking into the instrument it?e'f.
Looking to the condition of the
States anterior to the constitution as
a rule to determine ih ir condition under i
it, is like looking to the indebtedness of
the maker of a money bond before he executes
it to determine the amount of t! e
bond.
But it was. not our intention when we
took up the pen to discuss any of the |
subjects taken up ia the Review.? J
We intended oi.ly to bring it to;
the notice of our readers. Those
who wish the constitution strictly
construed; and the powers exercised by the
General Government in its past practice,
limited, ought to patronize the work.

PUBLIC MEETING.
In pursuance of a resolution of the
Town Council communicated to the citizens
of Charaw, hy the Hon. Intendant.
Tames W. Blakeney, a public meeting was
convened in the Town Hall on Thursday ;
(he 15th inst. to adopt such proceedings
s should follow the mournful intelligence
f the death of General William Henry
Harrison late President of the United
States.
On motion, his honor the Intendant was
called to the Chair and Brown Bryan appointed
Secretary. The chairman made
suitable allusions to the solemn event
which occasioned the meeting.
A motion was then adopted to form a
committee of nine to be appointed by the
chair to draft a suitable Preamble and
Resolutions for the occasion, which com.
inittee consisted of the following gentlemen,
Dr. Thomas E. Powe, Col. D. S.
Harllec, Col. John J. Marshall, A. Blue,
John A. Inglis, L. Prince, M. McCaskill,
C. Vanderford, and D. McNa r Esqs.
The committee, after retiring for a
short time, returned, and by their chairrv
i ai r.n _
man ljr. rowe, reporieu me luuuwiug
preamble and resolutions, which were
unanimously adopted, viz:
The committee appointed to draught a
preamble and resolutions appropriate to
the occasion which has convened us, beg
leave res|>ectfully to report as follows.
The event which has summoned us to.
gether is one of more than ordinary solemnity.
For several successive days each
day has reiterated the painful intelligence
"The President is Dead." For the first
time since the organization of our govern,
ment, has the nation been called to mourn
the demise of a Chief Magistrate, during
the continuance of the term for which he
was elected to office. For the first time
after a lapse of fifty two years, has the
wisdom of that feature of our constitution
which provides for such a contingency
been subjected to the test of experience.
The novelty of the situation in which
such an event places us, alone imparts to
it an interest, to which no citizen of the
republic can be insensible. But there are
circumstances about the present case
which isolate it, and give peculiar poignancy
to the sorrow that is spreading
over the land. General William Henry
Harrison, the deceased President,
through a somewhat long life exhibited
an uniform devotion to the good of the
country?and had exemplified as well in
various public employments, as in the
walks of private citizenship, the virtues of
an American Patriot; in youth, a companion
of the fathers of the Republic, his
life wasoqe of those links, which cqnnect
the present, with the golden age of our
history.
His fellow-citizens had with confiding
affection, very recently elevated him to
the supreme magistracy, the highest seat
of earthly glory. Summoned to the
helm of state, at a period, when the ele?
ments of political society within the
country, are in more than usual commotion,
and our relations with other nations
have assumed an unwonted and in some
respects painful importance, the hopes of
his countrymen have been suddenly disappointed
by the interposition of that
Almighty Being, in whom alone, ought
to be reposed the trust of nations, as of
individuals.
At the decease of a Pbesident, and
that one, who has in other capacities done <
the state gcod service, and whose personal
character has been so amiable, who has
been so suddenly and so soon deprived of
the oDDortunitv to realize in his new
#
office the hopes of his fellow-citizens; in
the present unusual circumstances of our
country we cannot, having a common
interest in the Government and its administration,
be indifferent. j
Be it therefore resolved, That the citi- I
zensof Cheraw participate most sincerely '
in the grief which pervades the land in
consequence of the death of General
William Hkxry Harkiso.y, laie President
of the United States.
Resolved, that we will cherish the re. '
membrance of his private character and
his public services and revere his name |
for his official dignity, a .d that in all <
these respects we deeply deplore his death. '
Resolved, that in testimony of these
our sentiments we will unite in wearing (
the usual badge of mourning for thirty
days. j
Resolved, That we cordially respond
to the recommendation of the citizens of
Charleston that one years salary be appropriated
by Congress to the family of the
late President.
On motion of Col. D. S. Harllce. Re- j
solved, that a committee of five be appointed
to watt on the clergy of this place
and officers of the Churches having no
regular Pastor, and request them to have
a Funeral sermon preached in the several
Churches on the second Sabbath in May
next, on the solemn occasion.
The chair then appointed the follow,
ing gentlemen Dr. T. E. Powe, Col. D.
S. Harllce, L. Prince, B. Bryan, and F. '
Turner Esqs.
On motion of A. Clark Esq. Resolved
that, a copy of this Preamble and Resolutions
be forwarded to our senators in
Congress, and our Representative the
Hon. Thomas D. Sumter.
On motion of Col. D. S. Harllee, Resolved
that the proceedings of this meet"
ing be published in the Farmers' Gazette.
Adjourned,

Chairman.

Opinions of Mb. Tyler.?The Balti.
more American republishes from its files
of last December, the following extract oj
a letter addressed by Mr. Tyler to some
gentleman of the Van Buren party in
Charleston, S. C., who, in view of the
possibility of the death of Gen. Harrison
during his term of service, asked for the
opinions of Mr. Tyler.
The concluding portion of Mr. Tyler's
letter in an answer, runs thus?
441 unhesitatingly declare it 89 my firm
conviction that William Henry Harrison
is qualified to guard and promote the liberties
and happiness of his country, be.
cau?e he is the stern and unflinching advocate
of popular rights, and the uncompromising
opponent of the bold and daring
assumption of powers which have of late
years been claimed and exercised by the
Chief Executive Magistrate of this Union
; because he regards the public offices
of the country as created for the benefit
and advantage of the People, and not for
the political advantage of the President,

on the part of the President, to remove
from office one " who is honest, capable,,
and faithful to the constitution,'* to make
way for another whose chief recommendation
is to be found in his being a noisy
demagogue and partizan?because he
would carry with him into the Administration
the principles of Jefferson, and
would require of the officeholders to abstain
fron interfering in the elections, and
to bestow a close attention to their duties,
in place of the acting partizanship which
is now everywhere exhibited?because he
is committed, by his principles, to recommend
and urge upon Congress the adoption
of such measures as will ultimate in
the commiting the custody of the public
monies to other hands than the Piesident
so as effectually to separate the purse and
the sword?because he is in favor of economy
in the public expenditures, in opposi.
tion to that wasteful course of extravagance
which has caused the public expenditure
to increase in ten years, from
813,000,00^, exclusive of the payment of
the public debt, to near 840,000,000 annually?because
he is the sworn enemy
to corruption, and the lover of virtue?because
in his election and by his example,
will be established and secured that greatest
of oil reforms, without which the effort
at reformation is hopeless, viz; the limiting
for all future time, the Presidential term
of service to a single term pf four years^and
because he is an honest nqan, a Republican
in principle, and a patriot in
practice; .J-might And 'othef Vetfsons" iff

To the People of the United States, a
P
a rkcommknpation. j,
When a Christian People feel them* 0
selves to be overtaken by a great public cal- A
amity, it becomes them to humble them- f
elves under the dispensation of Divine tl
Providence, to recognize His righteous
government over the children of men, to
acknowledge His goodness in time past, F
as well as their own unworthiness, and to
supplicate His merciful protection for the
future.
The death of William Henry Harrison, c
late President of the United States, so c
soon after his elevation to that high office ti
is a bereavement peculiarly calculated to a
be regarded as a heavy affliction, and to o
impress all minds with a sense of the un? 1
certainity of human things, and of thede- tl
pc ndence of Nations, as well as of indivi. F
duals, upon our Heavenly Parent. 1
I have thought, therefore, that I should p
be acting in conformity with the geoeral 'I
expectation and feelings of the community e
in recommending, as I now do, to the t<
Pe >ple of the United States, of every re- 1
ligious denomination, that, according to tl
their several modes and forms of worship.
they observe.a day of Fasting and Prayer, h
by such religious services as may be suit,
able on the occasion ; and I recommend j
Friday, the fourteenth day of May next i
for that purpose , to the end that, on that I
day, we may all, with one accord, join ir. \
humble and reverential approach to Him
in whose hands we are invoking hiin to in i
spire us with a proper spirit, and tempci .
of heart and mind under these frowns ol J
His providence, and still to bestow Hi: i
gracious benedictions upon our Govern- <
ment and our country. '

Gentlemen: The great importance of s

article induces me to ask the favor of its ^
publication in the National Intelligencer. n
The limited circulation of the Silk Jour. j(

silk culture. important discovery. p
the muscardine in america.
Probablv the most important informa- j
tion it has ever fallen to the lot of the wri. 'j
ter of this to communicate to the Public, ?
on the subject of silk culture in thiscoun*
try, will be found in the present article. e
(t has long been known to every one who
has read much on the subject of the silk
culture, that, by the ravages of a disease v
called Museardine in Europe, the average
loss of worms, taking one year with an- t
other, amounted to from forty five to fifty
per cent, of all the worms hatched; and, c
what was still worse, the disease general* v
ly made its appearance after the greater, j
portion of the expense of the rearing had
been incurred. This evil has continued, ]
from time beyond the reach of history, j j,
to within a year or two past. In the j
United States, all of us have heretofore a
considered odf worms exempt from this I
fatal disease, it having generally been
supposed not to exist here at all. This j:
was a fatal delusion. I have just received w
from France a copy of the "Annates de p
la Sociele Sericicole, fondee en 1837, pour s
la propagation'et Pa melioration de I'indus. p
tnede la soie en r ranee, lor 1837, 1838, tj
and 1839, in one of the volumes of which p
I find a plate representing silkworms in
the various stages of the Muscardine; the
first glance at which showed me that it
was the identical disease of which a great *
portion of the silkworms in this country 11
havo perished. All who saw the disease i?
last summer and have seen this plate iden- 1
tified it instpntjy.: I;shall endeavor to '
have translations made for the next number
of the Silk Journal, and, if possible,
shall accompany them with a copy of the
plate, that all may read, see, and judge
for themselves.. In the mean time, however,
I have thought it advisable to take
this hasty notice of the fact, that all silkgrowers
may be enabled to apply the
preventive and remedy. Happily, the
remedy will do no harm, either to the
healthy worms or those that may be affected
with other diseases, and is cheap
and easily applied. The remedy is a free
application ^fair-slaked lime to the worms,
and also to the floors of the cocoonery,
and whitc-washing all the wood-work of 1
the fixture*. The lime should be sifted C
through a fine sieve on the worms, two or L
three times a week if healthy, and once a
day if diseased, in the morning before the
first fipprlinrr nnr! aftar rlrnninnr tha tinr.
?""" (,1 ?- g "?
dies. The quantity of lime to be sifted
oo the worms may be just sufficient to
whiten the worms aod leaves well; and it
should be commenced whon the worms
are half-grown, say twelve to fifteen days ?
old. This remedy has, during the past ^
two years, enabled thpse persons in France ?
who used it to save and obtain cocoons
from ninety.seven per cent, of all the E
worips hatched.
Now that we know we have this formidable
disease amongst us, it becomes J
necessary that the remedy should be ap.
plied; owfc nsther^ap veny-fetf, ifanjv C
rho know the disease by sight, 1 would
nost earnestly recommend that the reme*
ly be applied iff all cases, whether the
rorms are sickly or not; for it is even
nore effectual as a preventive than as a
emedy, and, a-* before stated, will do no
inrrn to either healthy or sickly worms.
I consider it fortunate that this invaltihie
information has reached me at this
articular moment, just in time to be of
mmense service to us in this our day of
rdeal. Further particulars of the disease
nd the remedy will be published in the
arthcoming and subsequent numbers of

President Tvler held another cabinet
ouncil, to-dny. It is understood that he
oncurs in all that has been done andesablished
by the present administration,
nd that he is ready and anxious to carry !
ut the principles of his predecessor. Mr.
^yler, it is asserted, has stated nil this in ,
he most unequivocal manner. While at
Richmond, on his way to this city, Mr. J
\ler was waited on by some ot his old I
olitical friends, the abstractionists?Judge <
^ucker, and other-?who endeavored to <
xtract from him a pledge of adherence
3 the Virginia abstractions. But Mr. '
Vler sent them off dissatisfied. He said j
? 1
icy must address their views to him in ]
writing, but that they could expect from
im no reply, verbal or written. ]
As to a National Bank, Mr. Tyleijhas ]
ven lately pronounced it iinconstitution- <
1; but, in a speech, at Pittsburgh, during '
he late contest, he intimated that he
fould support it, on Madisonian ground.
In regard to removals and appointments,
e is willing to leave them entirely to the
everal departments. While he was Vice
'resident, he said that the doctrine of reloval
ought to be carried to such an ex.
snt as to restore those who were unjustly
emoved for opinion's sake, and to turn
ut all who were unfaithful, or incompesnt,
or who had interfered with elections,
'here can be no . objection, perhaps, to
tlis principle. Afterall,perhaps, Mr. Tyzr
has been called too suddenly to the 1
urple to have made up his mind on any
uhject. He is in a place where the Virinia
abstractions, to which he has for his
rhole life been devoted, would be of no
se, except, when practically applied, to
ring the Government to an end.
There is no opposition, as yet, to Mr.
I'vler; the Globe and Evening Post do
lot know what to makeofhun. They
ecm to anticipate from him something
ery erratic. The extra session will
ring matters to a point. The Executive
nust take a decisive course on every sub*
set.
