Rut ais was not all. The East and'West were a conspire fcgalnst the South ; bitter re ukes and contemptuous jeerings were to c thrown out against the Southern slave * older*.

And shaii such miserable wrctchcs as * Iturgcsft, Nilcs, or n Carey, or the jcsuiticul tun ing nnd barefaced duplicity of a Webber or an Everett prevent this coming millcni um of politicnl peace and justice. Let it not be said of our countrymen. Let them awake *>nd remember that the hour of justice and retribution i< hastening on, and that the death-blow will soon be given by the united voice of the nation, to a selfish, hypocritical ?^home, that has well nljjh dissolved the bonds thnt havo for fifty years connected 'is as one people.

Let in forget, Ictus tear ftom our recollections, iho Inju ries we have received from our deluded brethren, who again are willing to unite with us in putting down tho>e who have misled them, and oppressed us. Let us forget that wc were excluded from the hon ours of the Bunker hlfl monfimrnt, Let us forget, thnt they have endeavoured to In volve our wives nnd children In the mise ries of a servile war.

Let usl forget that In celebrating the glorious events of our country, not a victor/, not an event ot our late conflict with Great Britain was alluded to, or a southern name to much as mentioned. (See Web?tcr'?Oratlon at Ply mouth.) Let us forget how we have been reviled by their presses. Let us forget how we have been misrepresented by the* to foreigners who have travelled among them. Let ua forget all our grievances, which would make a ssd catalogue to enu merate. Let us forget them we aey, and join hand in hand with those of our breth ren intho east who are endeavoring to mne dy the cvlla which, have heretofore harass ed and vexed us. Let us beg attention to the publication at Boston. Read the arti cle from n Boston paper which is subjoined which will again open the heart to a peo ple who for a long time have been made our enemies, by selfish Intrigue and unhap py delusion. The Clay party cannot sur vive in New England. But the principles of freedom and equality mutt again pre vail over corruption and monopoly. If In the hour of trial we should be deceived in our hopes, we will be not the less capable of defending our right*, because wc have reposed a generous confidence. "IFrom the time that Mr. Adams, to weaken the power of the state of Georgia which opposed him, taught the Indians within the chartered limits of that state, that they were an independent nation, and bv keeping the Indian Agent, Crcwell, In office, sanctioned the intrigues ol that cmis sary to prevent the assent of the Indians to a removal, which the National Government stood pledged to procure, to the time when Mr. Webster on the floor of Congreaa tauntingly shook the purte of Massachu setts in the faces of the deiegatea from Ca rolina?and from that time up to the pre sent, there has been n constant, unlntermlt ted exertion on the part of certain New England politicians and their adherents, to excite the North against the Souths to bring up ancient grounds of feud; to repeat insulting language used in moments of ex citement in bygone days j to inflame in eve ry possible manner the Irritation which a difference ??f manners, rlimate and * mnloy mer.t, might be expected to generate in the breasts of the inhabitanta of different sec tion* of the country. We are told that Georgia is cruel to the Indians; that South Carolina is an enemy to the union, and de sirous at the ?ame time to obtain undue in fluence In the national councils. We are told that the crnsy John Randolph who strikes indiscriminately at friend and foe, called the people of the north " white slaves." We are taught to look with ab horrence at the slave holders, as if they were responsible for the evils which the cupidity or the necessity of their forefathers entailed upon them. Kidicule is heaped upon the south. Every passionate toast, reflecting upon the tariff men, given at a public dinner, U registered and conned over as a deadly insult to their whole body (eve ry sentiment In favor of the south, Is repre sented ns n mortal affront to the North. Nothing is s;>arcd to promote the very con Kcmience, for imagining which the anti-ta riff men of South Carolina have been held up as worthy of the fate of traitors. And what is the object ot all this? Is it an alli ance with the west and the elevation ol New England politician*' An alliance with the w est to perpetuate the ** abomina tions" of the tariff of twenty-eight? Or is It done for the purpose of depriving every Southern man of the chance of a Northern vote, and building a New England party so bitter in its feelings as to be ready to act over again the scene* of 1814, with greater energy and n still more fatal result to the welfare of the country? What ahall we gain with the west by outraging rtill further the South, which consumes the cattle, sheep, nnd horse*, and various agricultural productions of the West? Are we sure that the West, following President Jackson, will not be friendly to' the South? We may en nble the northern politicians to throw the weight of a part of New England into the scale of Mr. Clny, by exciting such a hos tility to the South as to make any thing preferable to the elevation of a friend to southern interests to the Presidency. We may throw the influence of a t<j?rt of New England at the feet of a western man, and tin- to take a second rank under the banners of the younger states. Hut what shall we lose? With the West ire have compara tively no Intercourse and from thence we can derive comparatively no benefits. Our bf f, pork, fish, wooden ware, shoes, boots, coar?? cloths?every article of our produc tion finds a r .nrkct In the South; our ships ?r?7 thc-ir cotton, our thlps carry them their foreign luxuries, they arc our natural friends, and the peculiar nature of their population renders n friendship and good '?*derstandlng with them of peculiar value S?Ur F '?m the West we can dc rixe not in., 1.1 j? comparison. And yet for the nmmoting a closer attach \? the leaoMm m?? cf the West, our politicians foster t itration from the south. I hose who dare to the itrlfv anecs of the Southern people ate ridiculed, those who recommend conciliation and speak of their great men with decency are disap proved, those who do not pamper thediseas SBtfWStfS for the rights ot the people of the North. We hope that this might receive a remedy from the good sense of the jpeople of the West. The party of Mr. Clay is not yet ascertained to be a majority, even in Ken tucky. He isnot now popular with a majo !*y people in the Western States. . 71"? s'*? ? h??*y Mipport rl?l? ?"J""1 P"*<*?io? ofthe South.

A plan of this sort, suc cessfully executed, promises to insure a punctual performance of public duty, where the public convenience is very much con cerned, and also to condense in some offi cial shape valuable statistical facts, hereto fore totally inaccesaible to the people and to the Legislature. If the state of the Roada is a fair index of the state of civilisation among a people, South Carolina mu? t be considered as rather ferocious in many parts, and for this temark we depend upon no hearsay evidence. Turnpikes we should be happy to see, and we should be happy to aee another thing (which we despair of witnessing vrry soon) and that is, the public purse sufficiently erect to authorise their construction by the authority and with the funds of the State.

Since Major Barry's appointment three or Tour communications have been made to him from this neighborhood, to ell of which prompt replies were made, which indicated not only a close personal attention to hit du ties, but a very thorough understanding of the subjects upon which he was addr^rved.
