Tiie T. •• - arc s' ri\; to m ' *■ -ipital out of the Whig
v.- t ‘mi 11 Mr ('-1!I»*»u• * - p r ■ -an address. Dill there
e. In
the first pine*. of the l Jl Southern members, only 48
signed that adilr<-ss—Very little n»« r*» than one third of
tin whole mnnhei. In tin* second place, 26 Southern
iJenwcruls refused u> sign th.it address—so if the M liigs
are guilty »>l treason, they have a very respectable nuui
ber of I) -niocrats in the same category.
Senator Houston—an extreme Southern man—has
w ritten a letter, in which he triumphantly vindicates
the Whigs f r tin* course they pursued. When the
Cocos assail them, they haveeiily to bring forward Gen
erai II m-t in to shie d them.
The Georgia Uem < rats (.Messrs Cobb Sr. Co.J have
also published a document justifying themselves for not
joining in a disunion scheme.
As s ime test of the Lncfocu sincerity on this subject,
it is to be observed that Gov. McDowell of this State,
who not only refured to sign Mr. Calhoun’s address, but
made a great speech against all its positions, is the Dem
ocratic candidate for Congress in the largest Democratic
district in the Stale. And that Mr Bedlnger of the Jef.
fersoo, and Mr Thompson of the Kanawa h districts_who
both signed and zealously supported Mr Calhoun’s address
have been set aside by their party, and new men brought
forward.
When General B iyly is telling the people of Accomnc
that lie and his Democrats are the only props of the South,
and ur^-f s their signing Mr Calhoun’s address as proof of
the fact, he will probably forget to say anv thing about
Messrs Houston * * i Texas, Cobb of Georgia, McKay of
North Carolina, and G >v. McDowell • f this S'ate —who
were Detno<-;»ls when he was a ranting, ravinir Whig !
Tim Savannah Republican puts some tighi quesiions
to it- DeinTcratic neighbor in regard* (o the Georgia Dem
ocrats :
Mr Cobb and the Georgian.—We enquired of the
Georgian two days ago, whether it preferred Mr. Cal
houn’s Address it* the South, or the one recently put
trill by Messrs Cobh and Lumpkin, of lhis S a'e, and
Boyd and I larkc . of Kentucky ?*Instead of answerinor or
even referring to the question, the Editor gives it the go
by, and enters into a special defence of Mr Cobb. We
are n..t t> he thus diverted from our object, and we put
the question again to the Georgian and the other Demo
crane presses in Georgia. Which of the Addresses,
gentlemen, do you prefer ? It Mr C.dh uu’sas promul
gated, how do you excuse Mr Cobb and his friends for
i signing it ? ff Mr ( . vvere y«>ti not \\ r »n«r in
approving Mr C alhoun’s, and were not the 47 o’cnlleinen ■
in error who gave it their signatures? Either Mr Cal I
houn a :• i his co-laborers were wrong, or Messrs Cobb,
Lumpkin, B >yd, and Clarke were. We wish to see 1
the two addresses reconciled
Messrs. H wel ( . I.ini i- yd# Beverly L. Clarke
and J- tm II. Lumpkin, Democratic members of the late l
House ot Representative*:, who refused to sign Mr. Cal- '
houn s addrt. have publi-hed \ long circular giving j
'■Heir reasons t r their course. Orient the-e is quite j
trenchant; it is, that the original a Id-ess an madverted on ;
the pa-sage of I tie Oregon hill.which Mr. Polk signed,and I
which they voletljor, as a great advance of the anti-sla- j
v. ry pary. Another reason, and one upon which they
rely most <’renuouslv. is, that the address did not assail
Northern Whigs and praise Northern Democrats.
“i hey wi re in favor (says the Savannah Republican,
in a very pertinent commentary) of giving it this cast ,
and making it entirely partizan in all its features* not I
withs anding it was evident, asappears from theirown I
detnag- guetcil plei, that the Southern Whigs would not
unit** in such an arrangement. They knew that such a '
course womd prevent union and harmony at the South, .
and yet they preferred i ! The question then occurs—if
they did not calculate up in the co-operati >n of the South- i
em Whigs, w hat did they expect to gain by opposing i
the'r^a ty. (which < in the minority 1 i the slave-hoi- I
ding S’aiesJ against Southern W higs. NoMicril W higs
and Northern Democrats? I- it not plain that they j
wished to make a party matter of it and to av»il them- :
selves of the sensitiveness of the South rn people on the 1
subject, for corrupt partizan purposes? Both parties, at,
he N >rth are.oj ppsed to us in sen i oeot, and still they j
advocated a poliov which they knew would drive even
the Southern Wing- into an «»pp ■sitioii to them ! Agi
Uiti n! irritation] and nothing but agitation! seems to ^
be lit r l -I ii< ill ui which an r ulti 4-lass of p- pit j iy jv*lit- j
. a! dwa Is. wit.is.* wa l of p nriudsm is only equalled by ’
their waul of brums, live, move, and have t!»eir be
mg.”
The Democratic papers of Georgia have, like their
c m » 1 aits g .1 raily in t'te Saudi, assailed the Snrhern I
\\ f.»r not signing Mr. Calhoun’s address. The Sa
va .a;i Republican puts to diem the pregnant inquiry
whe'her they prefer that address, 01 the address nt Mes :
s.rs. Coob M. Co. It they sustain the fuimt*r, they coil-1
• it’uvi Mr. C bb -n ! some of iii< c«»lleagues from Georgia;

. ...or coil ‘ inn os bis attacks upon Gen. Taylor’s Admin- j
istraiion, as be has begun, be will increase this debt of
graiitude to such an am-unt, tint they never can be able
10 jay it. We are impressed the more with iliis truib.
by the chargecontained in the annexed paragraph and
the reply of the Intelligencer.— JFAig.
From die National Intelligencer.
The “Union” t-arpes its carping against the new Ad
ministraiion of die Government beyond all bearable j
j bounds. In that paper of Friday last, lor example, the |
I at ten ion of its readers is called “to the moral effect” ui j
j the fact that the appointment of Mr. Penrose to th? post <
; in Assistant Sec re la ry of die Treasury has been declared
to be not ‘an appointment of the Administration, but one
made by Mr. Meredi li,’ (die Secretary of die Treasury:)
whereat the venerable Editor expresses his horror
1 t.f such a Shifting of responsibility’ from the Presi-!
deni upon his Secretary and asks ttie question. “And
I is thus really die doctrine which is to be ‘preached
| up’ by tin* Vministrat'on ? To which we reply, Y**s,
keai.i.y : die doctrine “preached up” by the present
Administration is tint of implicit obedience to the laws.
In the very number of the Union in which this question
is found was published at large thp Act of Congress con
taining the provision by which the office of Assistant Se
cretary of the Treasury is established, the terms of
win ’1 are literally a? foil flvs :
Sec. 13. And be it further enacted, That an officer
; shall be appointed in the Treasury Department, by the
Secretary of the Treasury, t*> be called Assistant Secre
t;»r\ of the 'Treasury, whose salary shall be three thou
sand dollars p**r annum, &.•?. and who shall perform all
— ticli other duties in liie office of die Secretary of the
Treasury .now pet formed by some ofhis clerks,as may be
I devolved on him by the Secretary of the Tieasury,’ &e.
Under this plain and positive enactment, wh > but the
Secretary ot the'Treasury could have appointed the As
i sistani Secretary ?
I : the “I Hi n” be re assured. The last thing that
can ever b trullv alleged against President Taylor will
i be his shrinking from any responsibility that lus station
■ devolves upon him.
The Washington Union lately mule an effort to cre
ate the impression ih.«t the new Administration had cansed
! ilie resignation of McCliniock \ >.ung, tne late chiefclerk
in the Treasury Department, and that a worthy man was
thus cut «df on account of liis polii'eal opinions. Mr
Young dissipates all this by a letter to the editor of the
Union, in which lie says that these statements are false,
and that the reasons tor his resignation,as given In his
letter to Mr. Meredith, areas follows :
[ North Jhncrican.
“The act,creating the Department of the Interior, pro
vides for the appointment of an Assistant Secretary of the
Treasury, prescribes his duties, and specifies such as
were heretofore performed by me as chief clerk, tints
virtually naking rtieolfice of the latter a subordinate
i clerkship.
••Having been repeatedly appointed as the acting
; head of the department, by four of the last five Presi
dents, in case of vacancies or sickness, or absence of
; the Secretaries, sometimes in periods of great difficulty,
and having discharged the trusts so confided to me, as l
beh-ive, with their approbation, self-respect forbids my
occupying any position inferior to my recent one; hence
the tender of my resignation.
“I was called to this position without solicitation on
I my part, and have retained it until now, at the request of
* v ry Secretary who succeeded the one who first a|>
p > nted me; and I would fain believe, from the confidence
, you have already reposed in tne, that you also w uld
; have made no change if my Inclinations had prompted me
i to remain.
“It 1 can heofany service by remaining a short peri
od in the department, it will give me pleasure to do so;
! tor I shall nut hastily forget the kind and confidential
I manner I have been treated by you, and shall esteem it
: an honor to be
Your friend. McCLINTDCK YOUNG.

Secretary of the Treasury.
