I'OUllCAL. SENATOR TVI.ER'8 MISCONSTRUCTION OF

THE PROCLAMATION Nothing can be more conclusive against those who are

attempting to nuke a p wty against the Piestdent, upon (ho pretence that his proclamation assert* the ptiuciples of ilia

jold Federal party, than the fact ol their being obliged to misrepresent the doctrine*of the paper in question, when- ever they reler to it, to maintain their dccl.uati ns. Sena- Irr i ylcr, in his Gloucester speech, says: I tine is not allowed me to do mote than to invite your

1

attention to one of these doctrines, advanced IVom a high quarter, and openly maintained in debate—that doctnne j which claims lor the Federal Government—the exclu- S T \ I. ALLEUIANCSOr THKCIT1Z K TV — a duct tuc w Inch cinbiaces every question lierctotore held in dispute he- j Iwcon the parlies ol this country, and, if successfully main* I taim d, overthrowing all that has ever been contended lor by the great republican party.” Is this true? Does the proclamation''claim for the I o* I deral Government the exclusive allegiance of the citi-1 zeu ? Nothing i* further from the tiuth. We ai\e the whole passage Iron) tlie proclamation on which Mr. Ty- ler engrafted Ins fallacious interpretation :

*' I lie .States severally have not retained theirenfiVe sove- reiguty. It litis been shown that in becoming parts of a nation, i.ot members ol u league, they sortendeied many ol their essential part* of sovereignty. The tight to make treaties—declare war—levy taxes—exercise exclusive judicial and logidativc powers, worn* allot thorn functions ot sovereign power. The Slates, then, for all the impor- tunt pui poses, were no longer sovereign.—Tlie allegiance ol their citizens was transferred in the fust instance, to the (•uVcruiuent of the United States, .uni to laws made m conformity witli tin1 pow ers it vested in Congress. This last position has not been, and cannot be denied. How tlicit can tint Stite be said to lie sovereign and indepen- dent, whose citizens owe obedience to laws not made by it, and w hose magistrates are sworn to disregard those laws, when they come in conflict with those passed by another? What shows conclusively that the States can- not be said to have reserved an undivided sovereignty, is, that they expressly ceded the right to punish treason --not treason against their separate power—but trea- son against the United States. Treason is an offence against sovereignty, ami sovereignly must reside with ,e power to punish it. But the reserved rights ul the

Male* are not less sacred, because they have for their com- mon interest made the General Government the deposito- ry ol these powers.”

I Ida passage in tho Proclamation, does not justify the inference ol Mr. Tyler, tiiat it claims “the exclusive ALLEtti a.yce’ for the Federal Government. II closely examined, the inference must be directly reversed. The Proclamation assumes that the allegiance of the citizen is due to sovereignty—or, as the terms are explained in the same passage, the citizens “owe obedience” to the authority of Government—that is, "to the laws made in conformity with powers vested” in it. But the whale te- nor ol the passage contradicts the idea that entire sove- reignty” belongs to either the State or Federal Govern- ment. And os die principle maintained is, that allegi- ance" and " obedience," (phrases used indiscriminate- ly,) are due to the divided ••authority” or "sovereian- ty,” as conferred upon tho State or Federal Govern- ments by die people, it follows, that exclusive alle- giance can be due to neither. The argument of the Proclamation asserts, “that die States cannot be said to have reserved an undivided sovereignty,” because "thru ex- pressly ceded the right to puni k treason"—"J^ot treason against their separate power' i. goes on to say: but, "trea- son against the United States." Here is an exp.ess re- cognition that treason may be committed against die sepa- rate power ol the Stales—and dial the constitutional power to punish treason conferred on the General Government does not extend to treason ot (hat class. “Treason, (says the Proclamation) is an oflence against sovereignty.” it inT» » t'a.ai uo.i,,ueii.»— i.i.il aiic.-gi.tnco .oii.m<; ac- cordingly, as obedience is due to each—and that (lie right to punish for treason against the respective sovereignties appertains alike to “//tc separate power" or separatiTGov- ernments recognized by die Constitution.

Mr. Tyler cannot find u word in tho Proclamation on which lie can lay hold to justify his declaration, that "ex- clusive allegiance” is claimed lor the Genet J Government —and we have shewn (hat tho whole tenor ol its argu- ment is against his asset tion.

But Mr. Tyler, lor want of oilier evidence to support die doctrine imputed to die President, brings tip another misrepresentation to support the first, lie says:

"Tin* doctrine of exclusive ullcgiar.ee is but die result of that other doctrine which has been contended lor so

strenuously, by a certain party in this country, horn the day (hat tho Federal Government was put in motion, viz: That the Constitution was not the result of compact among the States, as separate c<immunities and iude- pendent sovereignties, but was the work of the people. It it was the work of the people, acting as one wliolu, then it was obvious that the whole, that entire mass, was the sole sovereign, anti, of course, had entire mass title to the allegiance, ot each ami every individual within the broad limits of die Union.”

Ill tills part ot 1)19 speed), Mr. lyler gave liij con- stituents to understand, that (lie Proclamation maintained the doctrine that “the constitution was not the result tj compact among the States as separate communities unit independent sovereignties, but was the workoj the pro- pie;" and upon the assumption tlut the Proclamation thus iraces the origin of the Federal Government to “the pea- pie acting ns a whole”—an “entire mass,” he makes the deduction that the President claims “exclusive at- i legiance” in behalf of the Gi.ueral Government, Jfolh the facts assumed by Mr. l yler, in this statement, are not on-

ly not warranted by any thing to he found in the paper to lie found in (he paper lo which lie refers, hut it is evident, from tho most decisive and express language, that they are falsely assumed. I he Piod.imation, in more places than one, declares explicitly, that (lie constitution originat- ed in compact—and, further, that this compact was die woik ot die people through their respective Slate Legis- lature-—and that the. ratification or adoption of the found- I ludon was also die a> t o! the people ol the separate States, aning through “separate State Conventions.” All tins is expressed in the following brief passage ol (he Proclaim)- *

lion: 'he People of the United States formed

THE CoNSTI I UTIO.V, ACTING IHHOUGH THE Sl ATK I-FGISLATUHES IN MAKING THE COMPACT,TO ME ET AND DISCUSS I I H PROVISIONS, AND A CTISO IN S E PA- KaTK (onv KN'TIONs WHIN I HEY RATI e I e d those PROVISIONS.’*

In oilier parts ol this paper, the same hies is rrivanced. InargH ng tli** question oi s.ressio. ihe declaration that the IJiion was tunned l>y compaC, i* thus repea'r«l:\

“Herause the Union was formed ry compact, it is saul the parties to that compart may, when liny leelihein- s* Ives aggi i> veil, ih-part n oiu i i: hut it i precis* ly dec a Use it is A ompact that they cannot. A compact is n

agreement or himl ng obligation. I may, hy its tcrnis, have a sanction or penalty 'or i s breach, or it may not.”

In various oilier passages ol this paper, and in various forms of argument, the doctrine ia asserted, that (he Fede- ral Government is founded n compact—was created by the people of tlio Uni ed States a* distinct communities or States—and not as an entire tnnaa; and it further recognizes Ih.’ principle ongraf od in the Constitution, lliat it can only ho amended or Uered hv the consent ol lhe«e Stiles as se- parate independent cotuiuuit'.in s.

M.r Tyle can limii-li no jus ificsiion for his course in misrepresenting (lie opinions ol the President to In con- stituents. lie knew that the spurious interpretation oi «!ic Proclamation, which he sought to patin on his constituents lor a lair and honest illustration ol its principles, has no warrant in its text; and that on other occasions, unjust in- ten ures ol the same character had been repelled by tbo aulhnitly of the President, who expressly disavowed Ihe

| opinions thus Imputed to him.— Gliihe. [From Lynchburg Virvininn 1

To Hon Henry Cloy. Washington, 15th March. 1833.

Gentlemen—1 duly received your favor of tho 6th iu>t. communicating resolutions which were adopted by a P011,0,1 01 *>)e people of Amherst, assembled at Now Glas- gow, in w Inch they have been pleased to express their ap- probation ol a measure, for the adjustment of the Tariff, which 1 lately submitted to the Senate of tho U. State*! V\ hilst 1 led that your gratification, in common with, I believe, a large majority ol the people ol the United State#, with the amicable settlement of a threatening question, and your.partiality towards an humble instrument in tho hands ol Providence, that had some agency in bringing it about, have induced you to employ very stiotig amAvarni language, I request yonr acceptance, and that of my lellow-citizens whom you represent, of my gratdul acknowledgements for the testimony which has been thus rendered. Vou rightly Mate, that next to the conscious- ness ol having laithlully discharged our public duty,is tho approbation ol our fellow-men. And I shall always < hcr- ish, with great satisfaction, that which you havo beeu pleased to communicate.

A crisis had arisen in our country which threaten- ed the public safety and extensive interests of our domes- tic industry. 1 thought it possible to avert the impending danger, from both, by a fair compromise. Tho bill to mo- dily the Tutill is founded on the principle ol mutual con- cession. It consults the interests, feeling and opinions of both parlies, without affording to cither just cause ol exulta- tion over the other. And I sincerely hope, that lieie.iltor it may, by restoring a good understanding and friendly sentiments between all parts of the confederacy, load to an adjustment ol tho Tariff, for a period beyond which it has been particularly provided lor in tho bill, that will be satis- factory to all.

I otter you, gentlemen, co'dial assurances of my sincere regard and esteem, and ol my being y our obedient act- vhlit, || ( ] \y Messrs. Jl'm. 11. Garland, Thus. li. Brown, Jl'm. H.

It v\.:s un- der those circumstances that 1 prerr n od the measure to which you icier. Having been finally udopteil by large majorities of trolls Houses of Congress, I sincerely hope’it may every where he received in tho amicable epuitin which it was offered and passed. Ol .ill the misfortunes that could he la I our conledciacy, time is none equal to that ol a separation ol its parts; lor in its tr-iin, every other would follow, it is sometimes said iir.it lihcity is preferable to union, and so it i* in the abstract; hut what possible guaranty is there tor liberty without union? I pray that all our fellow citizens may bo sensible of this undeniable truth; and that, in social intercourse, and tho public councils, its influence may he foiever fell.

With my thanks lor the obliging manner in which you have communicated the Resolutions of the people of Dan- ville, and with assuran. es of high respect and esteem, I am your obedient servant, 11, CLAY.
