GOV. GIL MKft IN AMHKUST.
'I ll re is no pail of out professional duty mure
'painful ill in iliai which sonutin.es brings us m cou
llict with gentlemen towards whom personally we
entertain the kindest feelings. We In.ve the highest
respect lor Gov. Uiltnrr; yet we canmi jm t in it his
recent course to escape without animadversion. It
is due lo ih- party >o which we ate attached, and ol
which he was so long a distinguished and honored &
“icwardvd” member, that we expose the fill lacy ol
some ol his allegations, at least so far as his right io
urge them is involved. We do not intend to do Hus
now, however, by a labored argument; us we have
neither leisure to write, nor space to publish it ; bui
simply by reference to a lew indisputable fuels,
some o( them drawn from very recent historj , ••All
winch he saw,and part of which he was.”
W e are Sony lo hear that Mr. Gilmer condescends
on till occasions io apply to his old associates tin
stale and thread bare epithet of Fec/cralisls—an cpi
Diet which his new Iriends once branded upon his
biow, Mjih as little ceremony as he himself now ex*
h t b 11 s in its application toothers. He then denied1
the justice ol its application, not only to himself
but to Ins friends. Nay, he went a step farther, and
hurl'd it link upon It s present allies! It is main
fest, ihenTore, that this term, originally of honorable
signification, but which has no* degenerated into
one ot reproach, is a mere ad captandum minus
word,—“the < oun'er ol wipe men,” who play w ith it I
m (be came ol polities, to dope the fools who deem
it still tinadtilteraied coin,—the sign of something
definite and certain, liuv. (iilmer calls us federal
ists r.ow—a short time si* ce he applied the san e
trim to Ins then opponents. Is he light now? lie
was wiong tin n. Is he wrong now ? he was light
then, ('mainly lie was unjust then or now. In
our own opinion, it shows that lie is without fixed
principles himself; or else that the word “federal
ist” has become a sor« of “mad-dog” ciy. by the use
of which H is sought, not to designate * pinions and
principles, hut to catch votes fro.n the ignorant and
the prejudiced. We regret to see Gov. (iilmer
opening the hunt with this false cry, alter having
himself expressed Ins contempt ol Mioilar conduct in
| others, who so long endeavored to run him down
with it in v »m—dden ltd and shielded as lie was by
the party, whose kmiiness .ml confidence lie repays
with such shatii' lul mgru nude.
But Gov. (iilmer * ude..vor< d, in his speech at
Amherst, lo prove that the Whigs are Federalists,
l And how? lie first deft icd, and if we have been
tightly inlorn cd, conecilv defined, the meaning ol
the u im—to wit, that lie is a federalist who does
mu i online hinisi'll, in Ins measures ol public policy,
to the powers granted by the constitution, or such
as are “necessary and proper” lo carry the granted
powers into effect. Anil he then referred 'o the
piomineut measures adoj ted or urged by the Win.*
at the extia session, lo show that they have irans
trend* tl these Im its. These measures are—1, ill*
N iiiond Bank; 2, the Distribution Bill; 3, the
Loan Bill; and 1, the Bankrupt Bill. Let us look
at them,—keeping in vow, as we go along, Gov.
Gilmer’s test.
As to a National Bank, wc derm it unnecessniy to
re-aigtie iIn* question of us constitutionality. We
cheerlully admit that d Gov. Gilmer deems il uncoil
Mitutioual, lie w iuld be a federalist if he were I«»
sain mm its incorporation. But they are not IVdenl
ist-. w ho h In ve tint the constitution, either by ex
press giant, or by necessary inference, conh rs upon
Congress the jower to incorporate it. And all
such persons may , in detente * f this construction,
appeal to a weight of authority, such as cannot he
invalidated by a sneer, or overbalanced by the clia*
raeft r and ial* lit* ol us upponi ins. We have been
misinformed, moreover, il .Mi. Gilmer did not him
self, so late as last Spring, regard even a National
Bank, “pci sc.” as among the alternatives, and even
iln first among them, which hr should be willing to
adoj i!
2. The Distribution Bill ca* not certainly be
deemed unconstitutional by Mr. Gilmer, and i s
supporters arc not therefore, arcriding to his own
(••ml the only true) test, federalists. We s.»y,ilial
Mi. (Bln er latinnni believe the Distribution lull to
be unconstitutional; because w* find, on rel* rring to

therefore, ti *v. Gilmer's test beitg applied to nt ,t

have been forgiven or overlooked, and they would

Indeed, when was Air. Clay proclaimed ihe Whig
candidate for the next Presidency ? There is not
one of tins little squad, whose hostility to Mr. Clay
rould have been inferred from his past course! Mr.
Tyler went to II nrixburg to vote for him; Air. Wise
was one ol Ins most devout worshippers until Air.

G >v. Gilmer, let him speak lor himseli:
('lIAKLOTTESYILLK, June ilUlll, 1810.
(i nth-men—Uu Hie eve ol my departure Irmn
Iln Iiinond. 1 leci-ived your very coidial invitation i»
attend a Public Dinner mi the 17th instant, given by
the citizens ol IJ.mover in honor of our distinguish
ed countiy man, lleniy Clay. Il 1 cm complete
some private business, which induced my absence
Itom Richmond for a short lime, u will allord mu
pleasure to he with you.
The occasion of Air. C‘ ay’s visit to the scenes of
Ins nativity, is not one lor mere exultation. Ills
lame, like his genius, belongs now to Ins country
his whole country, and nothing but his countiy; aud
while every Virginian hails hi n «s a native ol our
soil, the Pi ople id Hanover, without reference to
parties, cannot fail to extend lo him a welcome cor
responding with their gem rous bosprality and Ins
distinction. There is something peculiarly touch
ing in the intercourse which is about lo be renewed
Oetween Mr. Clay and the People of Hanover. It
earn* s us back through many an interesting cp >cli
of our public bi'tory to the nine, when a poor boy,
from the slash- s, which have since been distinguished
as hi-* biith place, he entered the perilous i aieer ol
life under Hie friendly auspices ol that gieat and
good n an, lieotge Wythe. 'I lie high stations

ihe r> Collectioi s of childhood,— all seiv • to invest
the oce .simii wnh sympilhi s and rill cti ns, such
as ai e not ol Um suggested on the life ol the States
man.
Air. ( la) stands at this moment on ;»n eminence
' where few ever 8 nod before. After (reiving his
. countiy n» almost -very ca aejty in which seivne
can I e required, he asks nothing of Ins countrymen
but 4 just and imparnal judg ue l on the motives
and the abilities which he has employed. Il he

I istuma, Lentlemen, that those who are cnl't

le.irly, when it att* mpix to dishonor naimsthat must
go down as our witness' s to posterity.
