^ CHER AW GAZETTE. Tueskay July o 1*4 J. The Anniversary of our National Independence was celebrated yesterday with the usual demim^rnfinns of joy; hat wo are pleased to say, not with the wonted demonstrations of attachment to that most unscrupulous an J cruel of aU tyrants, King Alcohol. The assemblage to hear the oration was large and respectable. It tilled the spacious and commodious church of the Baptist congregation. The Declaration of Independence was well read by Capt. B. F. Pkguks, and the oration by Mr. l. b. r rince, was able and eloquent, and breathed a spirit of enlightened and most ardent patriotism. It will he seea from the notice of the Intendunt, in another column, that a in?%elir?tr is to be helil next Saturday at Ij I*. M. (and not '6 A. M. as ?>tir printer made the Intnndant say last week) to reconsider the Hog Law. lings are allowed to run in the streets of -Y'VV YorJ\ and Philadelphia without interruption from the corporate authorities, and for aught we know to the cpntpify, in all other cities.

A ense III- ' olving the scriptural right of a man to i marry the sister of his deceased vvi which was decided hy the General Assent- i b!y of the Presbyterian Church at its lute fuectjng, has been made the subject of so much comment by many papers, par. ticularly at the North, lhat we have been j induced {n copy into the preceding col- ; Ut&ns one of the speeches upon the trial. I Anotu::k VKfo,?Con gress rinding that tljny could not agree upon a t>ill regitla. ting the tariff before the 1st of July when the law of H33 would go into fad ope- ; ration and reduce aii imposts to 23 per cent, passed a hill continuing the revenue j laws till the tirst of Augi}*!, a*they were ; qii the rirst of June, and postponing til! the first of August the distribution of the ? I proceeds of the public lands, which nc- I cording to the distribution act was to take ; place r?n the first of July. The bill was j returned by the President to the House where it originated, rm the 29:h June, with his reasons for not signing it. The reasons assigned hy him are 1 : ; that the hill violates the compromise of j 1833, by postponing the time of its going | into full operation for (ho space of one. month; and 2 i ill it instead of letting the distribution act remain inoperative according to its own provisions, when a tariff of more th in 20 per cent is laid on j some articles, it provides for only sus- I pending that act for a month, with the view of nfterwa?\!s giving it effect when imposts of more than 2'J per cent will he necessary. On the motion to print the message a debate arose which lasted till the hour oi adjournment, when Che motion prevailed, van. con. Messrs. \V. C. Johnson, Gran gor, Saltimst.ill, and Fillmore allocked the message, and Messrs. Holmes and Cashing deft'tided it. ^ THfi time <if Congress lias latterly keen taken up chiefly with the provisional tardl' (nil (reft rod to above, as returned by the President to the House,) the lul's niakitm appropriations for the nrmv and navy, and a hill to make indemnity for French spoliations before 1801. The Hon. Samuel L. South ahi?. of the U. S. Senate, died at Fredericksburg, Vn., on the 26th June; and the lion. Win. S. Hastings, member of the House of Representatives from Massachusetts, died at the Virginia Springs, on the 17th. The mvddkning influence of violent party spirit is signally exemplifled in the following resolutions adopted by the House of Representatives of New Hampshire, by a vote of, 6J to 53 ; the Dcmocrots voting for them, and the Whig s against them. Resolved, That according to iho theory ot the American system of polities, the sovereign power of a state is vested in the people, who have the right to alter, amend, or reconstruct their forms of gov. eminent. whenever and in such manner as Ihev choose, there being no rightful human authority above them to judge ol their acts or to control their will. Rcsolred, That the people of Rhode Is. land in their late attempt to reform their government bv the establishment ol a ire? constitution exercised the right ot sovereignty legitimately ; that the con. stitulion they framed and the government they established is the legitimate constij tution and government of that state, and that the act of the people of that state by which they framed a new constitution and government, abrogated and annulled the old charter of King Charles the 2d, and rendered nil arts done under said charter void ar?d of no effect. Rrsolced, That neither the General Government nor any of its departments have a right to interfere in any political controvert Uetwcpn different portions of the people of h state m which the question of sovereignty i? in issue ; and tnat John Tyler, the acting President of the United States, by interfering with ana deciding the question of so\?ereignty pending between the t*o parties in it. I. has been I guilty of a wanfon and flagrant act < usurpation, for which ho deserves in peachment end expulsion from office. Resolved, That ill the name of the d< mocracy of New II amp^liirc, we tench the constitutionalists ol It node Island 01 sympathy and encouragement, and u | conjure them never to surrender n can.j so just and sacred, involving, as wo hr j lieve, the great fundamental principles < American liherty, hut exhort them to pel severe in all proper means, to -return : their rights, and if an appeal he necessan j in the last resort, to the (?\>d of Justici we trust their hearts will he nerved t i meet the crisis with the firmness and in j trepidity of men resolved to perish or h J free, remembering "thrice is he anno | who has his quarrel just," and that friend j will rise up on every side to succor th oppressed. The Senate were evpectcd to pass thes< ; resolutions in like manner; that is by i ! party vote. It "John Tvlor, acting IVe.si J dent of the United Slates*' had espouse* > the cause of the insurgents in Rhode Is ! n | land Ciov. Hubbard and his party in Nov Hampshire would doubtless have beci j equally severe upon him, and with mon |reason. The IJou.se of Representatives of New Hampshire also resolved on the 21st June | that it would pass no hill dividing th< I State into districts for the election of rep resentatives to Congress. If the appor 1 ** 1 L' il I _ t eminent Dill passed oy ooiu nouses o Congress requiring representatives to ht chosen in the states by districts, should !.< approved by the President and become i law,* and the Legislatures of any of tin States should fail or refuse to pass a lav dividing the state into districts, it wil then, of course, he incumbent on Con gross to make such division. If, in (In mean time, the people in any of the State: should, under their local lavs, elect 1m general ticket the number of represents lives to which they arc entitled, what wil he the result ? Can Congress rightful!) take advantage of its own neglect, or it; own wrong, to exclude the chosen reprc sentaiives of a state when these reprcsen tatives are chosen according to the onlv laws bv which they could ho chos.in ?? The following is the provision of the con siitutiono i the subj *et: The times, places and manner of hold ing elections for Senators and Represcn tatives shall bo pi escribed in each Stab l?V the Legislature thereof ; but the Con i J O U.. I~... yross mav ?ii any ii.'hk, ?>y kh?, iu.ihg w( ' altersiirIi regulations, except as to the place of choosing Senators. Now Congress has no power lo require a state lo legi.-late on any subject. The 1 constitution contains no such anomaly ai the grant of a power which, from (he von ; nature of the case, cannot be enforced i \ Slate; Legislature may or may not, a | its option, co-operate with Congress in it i legislation on this or any other subject | Although Congress may at any tinv , "alter" the "regulations" prescribed in tin j States by theii Legislatures for the e!cc I lion of representatives', has it power so t alter them asto defeat or prevent an dec tion altogether? Surely not. No law whether constitution or .statute, is to b ; so interpreted as to defeat the intention n I the law manifest on its face. The plaii j intention of the clause of the constilutioi before us to secure a representation ii i Congress ; am! it cannot be so interprde ! as to prevent this cnil. When a stat Legislature has "prescribed" that the reji rcsentatives of the S ate to Congre> shall he chosen by districts, without fixin tlie limits of these districts, is this such a alteration of the "regulations" of the: Stat Legislature as is contemplated, by t!i i constitution? We think not. Until Co;: gross does something more, the state la< is the constitutional law ; for it is the or ly. law under which representatives ca t)o chosen ; and the representatives chv sen under it have as much right to the seats in Congress as any others. Th 1 llouso cannot exclude tlieni without gross usurpation of power. Men and editors may talk and write z harshly as they will of New Humps!.ii j or Georgia, or any other State for d< ! dining or refusing to legislate in ohed ~ O O cnce to the wili of Congress on this < any other subject, hut that cannot altc the case. They may call it nuJlijlcaik as some of them do, hut it is a loose u> of language. The political meaning < the term nullification is something moi than a mere refusal of a Slate Legisl; ture to enact laws in obedience to a mat J date of the Federal authorities. Wc do not approve the course of Nc j Hampshire, or any other State, in r 1 fusing, from more spite, to divide its te | ritory into dish ids, and save Congrc i the trouble of doing so. We have r i doubt that thev would do it themselvi . j # ! more to their own satisfaction than Coi j gress can. \i?t they have a right to r< j fuse, and we think it the duty of ever . I good citizen to iet them enjoy the right i j pi nn-. i ? *Tho r.c.-.iuciit has signed this bill. of! A duel to.),'; place, on the *25fh Jane I i- between Col. Webb, oft be X. Y.

The administration will be surely allowed so ue cred t for this happy result. There never was a moment of more tine rtain'y and interest in publics than the present. J It is evident that the friends of Mr. Cl .y are J pressing his claims with more ardor and f unanimity than was expected. In addition to 1 they wero addressed by sundry orators, i ne meeting is repres niod by some of the WVg papers as being more enthusiastic than even tlu Tippecanoe hard cider meetings of 1310. j A company of men from Missouri have in j possession a drove of buff-dies amountihg to 37, which they caugb4. when calves near the Itocky Mountains, and are now carrying to New York for exhibition and sale. EFFECTS OF TEMPERANCE* ' A frreat sale of Wine took plncc in ( Philadelphia on Wednesday. In order to show the inil icncc of the times, or of | the Temperance societies, wc annex the. price at which the same vsinea sold by the ! 1 cask at a previous sale. Sherry Wines J which in November last brought aw.wn per gallon, sold for $1,00 a $1.'20; $0 00 in Nov. now $1,1$. A lot nt $3.00 in November, now $2,30 ; .Madeira $3 00, now sold at $'2 73 per gallon ; Amtilla do. $18,000 [KJf dozen sold lor $0,25; Ma- j dciia selected from London Docks in j 1330, which co-jt at (he time of bottling! $10 per gallon sold at $3,00. S.tmey in j bottles brought $1Q per dozen; another: lot same ago as the Inst brought $3/25 per gallon and $13,50 per dozen. The above shows an average fall in price of more than fifty per cent in little more than six months. As it is known, says a Philadelphia paper, that the currency has not depreciated in any thing like that ratio, the cause of the great falling oIT must he attributed to the feeling and spirit of tenrporancc that at present unri'a.icc nil rlns-iCS of society.

One thing is cer. i tain that the Whig party in Congress is now i more united and resoiu c than ever; and that j the President will find it exceedingly difficult J to oppose them. The government cannot go t "it, if the pxpoeted collision should take place, j It is therefore rumored, and the MaJisonian of this morning intimates, that the 1'refiident ; will find it hi* duty to the country, however unpleasant to himself, to 6 gn a revenue bd.
