4 -m ALEXANDRIA, (D. C.) * S.lTt'Iin.ir UU RUING, FEBRUARY 9. 1833 .‘FIRST OF FEBRUARY.” The Charleston Courier gives us the following account ol wlut transpired on Nullification Day in that city: Yesterday, the birth day of practical Nullifi ca.,„n, otherwise called the fatal first of Febru er:j was signalized by no event of greater itn ii.ii tance than a somewhat more rigid enforcemenl • ..in usual of the revenue laws. The Britisli *\ii> Roger Stewart, from Greenock, and Spa , bri/llermoso llahMiero, from Havana, were lA.-n m charge bv the U. S. Revenue force our harbor, until the duties on the merchan ,li/.e thev contained should be properly secured t, the Govenment. This proceeding has been denounced, bv an Evening Journal, as a “ Fe derat aggression,” and the first step towards a lollisiou’with the State authoiities. So far from this being the c.^e, the course pursued by the Collector on this occasion, in compliance with his instructions, is in strict conformity with the provisions of the Act entitled “ An Act to re -ulate the collection of duties on imports and tonnage.” passed the 2d March, 1799—an act, the vaiiditv or constitutionality of which has ne ver been questioned. That this amounts to a «• Federal aggression” can only be maintained bv those who are anxious for some pretext to cotn iilome hostilities, or who agree with an ingeni ous Columbia Editor, that to enforce the laws of •he Cnited Stater, is to commit Assault awl Buttery. _ We perceive, by the instructions of the T rea surv Department to the Collector of this port, dried Nov. 6, 1832, published among the other documents, accompanying the last Mes*age of i is I ...» a 1. tna ivHi <ar«t exf fltP rit«tniiU .»r*» lilt a • rom •• - « -- directed to adhere to the stiict line of their ofh ►ul duty, •‘merely executing their duties with, p'rhjps, greater vigilance than ordinary, and adapting existing regulations of daily u*e anil .i| plication, to new circumstances of greater emergency, as they may arise;’' and that it is tlie uiO. of the President and the Treasury Depart u.i u\ »* to take no step, not employ any means calculated to provoke or eac'lle to loree, tm*»e w!i;> are now threatening iesistauie, but to de but their operation* by the moial force of tlie law* aud die Constitution.” The above will show how things went in Charleston. The following, from the National Intelligencer, will show how they managed in Columbia: hom CVuiiihiu, tlie s>’at of government of the State, we have seen a letter which states that, «n die preceding evening, tlie College Students io that place formed a procession at about eight i-’dock, ami marched through the Main street, with an i ifigv of General Jackson, with a I a b»* 1 *• Andrew the Fir*t” oti its head, and the Execu tive Messages in its hand. They b'»re it to ihe fiout uf “The Hive” office (a Union paper.) and there burnt and shot it. “ 5> » ended with us Nullifi.atimi the fi(*r day,” says the wider. The Charleston “States’ Rights and Free Trade Evening P.«*t” of F. bruary first announ ces that m pursuance of orders from Washing ton, “Ihe Bii’i*h slop Roger Stewart, Captain Kerr, from Greenock, ami the Spanish brig Iler biimii Hiibwiero. from Havana, have been brought to in the Road* by the U. S. revenue forces in th‘* harbor.” T he editor and* that this act, “ il followed up, most uiing tlie Gene'al Govern* ■uihf in collision with us,”—meaning, we pre *u ne, the nullifies—the Post being one of the leading organs of that party.

In the record of proceeding* in the Canadian Parliament, we find the following, which indi cates no very enviable state of feelings among ' the member*: “ A terrible kick up took place on Friday even , ing in the Assembly during the examination of Mr. Viger. He had stated that he had seen a man named Keogh beaten by some of the con stables, but could not name them. Mr. Young having expressed some surprise that a public man | , like Mr. Viger should not know the special con-1 | stables, when he was so positive as to Keogh; ;, Mr. Leslie said there was nothing surprising in : it—he knew Mr. Young he did not know his! i wife. Mr. Young madeaverj long reply, which he concluded by saying that the language ot the Hon. gentleman was unbecoming a Member of, the House and a gentleman. The words having been taken down, the Speaker took the chair— and as there w«9 no quorum, messengers were sent all around to procure the attendance of i members. Mr Young refused to apologize, al ! though entreated by a great number of his friends, j An order Tor his arrest was passed, but the aer ! jeant at arms has not yet put the grace of God upou him. The discussion commenced at half past 8, and terminated only at 11.” Mr. Andrew Stevenson, in a long letter pub lished in the Enquirer, declares against the right ; of peaceable secession. He disclaim* nullifica tion too. ■ ■ NEW VERSION.

In the Senate yesterday, Mr. Poindexters’ re solution, offered the day before, (see another co lumn) was debated by Mr. Poindexter and Mr Calhoun in its favor, and Mr. Grundy against it. Before the question was taken, however, the hour for taking up the special order of the day arrived, and the Senate proceeded to consider the Revenue Collection Bill. Some remarks were made by Messrs. Web ster, Tyler, Bibb and Brown, of North Caro lina, in explanation of and reference to the Bill. Mr. Mangum being indisposed, did not resume his speech. Mr, Dallas, of Pennsylvania,then took the floor at length in favor of the Bill, and was speaking when our informant left Washing ton. lathe House, the Tariff'Bill was again taken up.
