The two other candidates for the Senate from this

-.

 

 

." District, are Thaddeus Brll, Esq. of Darien, nom-

inated at- what we shall call the Regular Jackson
Convention; and Nathan Seeley. Esq. of New

. ‘Canaan, nominated on the 13th inst. by the Anti
 Masons.

In helialf oflllr. Bell it is claimed by
-his friends that he is a Republican of the old school,
‘and has grown grey in the cause; that “ during
the dark period of Blue Federalism in this state-
lie stood strong and firm in the minority—a zeal-
ous advocate for the reformation, which to the gle-

‘xry of the state was finally brouglitabo_t1t." Gram.

‘ ed—and we are in no hurry to deny the force of

much an argument-but is there any other ’! If not,

_ then it is our turn to be in "a quandary," for, Mr.

Bell is not the only old school Republican left in
the 12th Senatorial District. We could point to
a score of them in every town, each of whom is in
this and all other respects, quite as well qualified
for the station aslie. And besides-—Mr. Seeley is

_ .-a Republican of the same school: he was a mem-

Tber of the Convention which framed our present
tConstituiion ; and has been " frequently called to
represent his fellow citizens in the popular branch
-ofrlie Legislature." So for then, Mr’ Seeley, and

\ a hundred others, stand on as good footing as Mr.

Bell ; and if we are to elect Senators on that
.ground_why, we say we are in a quandary who to
pick. It is true there are one or two points of differ-
~ence between the two candidates which may opa-
rate in Mr. Bell’s favor; one is it Jackson man.

the other an anti mason ; and inasmuch as age is

honorable Mr.Bell is the most lignorable of the two
There is, however, another argument in favor of
.Mr. Bcll—lre has been regularly nominated, and
not only so, the resolutions tell us he was nomina-
‘~ted unatiinrauslg. \Ve like to see unanimity at
such times, and at all others, when itis desirable-
-‘ when it is not, not. Now what are the facts rela-
-tive to this ll7la-7251710118 nortiinatiorr 1 Upon the 1st
ballot Mr. Bell received two votes. Charles Haw-

-“ jley, four, Silas Davis four, Erastus Sturges six.—-

\

.”

'02 the 2.: ballot Mr. Bell had 4, Sturges 5, and
Hawley and Davis 7. On the 4th ballot Mr. Bell
obtained a small majority.and was thereupon voted
to be unanimously nominated. Glorious unanimi-
ty. -Now for the regularity. There are six towns
in this district. For uuglit that we know the Dele-
ates from the three western towns were chosen
y, and represented the wishes of, the people.-—
How was it in the other three? In one of them
. mcn—o,oI2.i.'4.3!§°d for another purpose made the ap-
,-pointments : in the other two when the time for
-‘the meeting arrived it was determined to make no
. appointments: subsequently the decision of one
 roversed,and when the Convention met the
-defiegates took their seats, and no questions were
askied. Thus much for the regularity. But there
is another item. Of the )6 delegates present at
the Convention 9 were for Jackson, 4 for Clay, 2
for Calhoun, and 1 whom we do not know how to
classify. In :1 Convention composed of such mate-
rials we neither wonder at the choice made, not
the unanimity with which it was made. Mr. Bell
is represented to us as being not only a consistent
Republican, but a consistent friend of the present
ational administration. So are also 7 out of the
1,2 candidates nominated in the other districts from
, . which we have returns. \Ve are in a, hopeful

’ ' way. VVhen these Regular Nominations are con-

firmed, we shall have 3 Jackson Seniite—.-two or
three Jackson Electoral Districts; a Jackson Sen-
ator to Congress in place of Mr. Foot; Jackson
udges of Probate, Iudgesof County Com-g,‘ J“,
.590 of Peace. &c- &c. Will the people confirm
them? We shnll_see._
It will be perceived from the following notice
comniunioation that the friends of Mr. Clay

" Tare determined to, have a voice in the matter:

MR. CLA'Y.'-—On the preceding page we
have given the Globe‘s report of some passa-
ges of Mr. Clay's late spec-ch upon the tariff.
The friends ofMr. Clay complain that this re-
port is falsely colored ; and the Telegraph as-
serts that it is a “ garbled and mutilated” ac-
count, “ the object of which is to degrade the
Senate, as well as to prejudice Mr. Clay.”-
The edtt or adds -. “ ‘We are not the apologists
or advocates of Mr. Clay. But we owe to our
readers, and to the people, a vindication of the
Senate against the deliberate warfare waged
against that body by the hired agent of _a co-
ordinate department, and we will do so." A
correspondent of the Intelligcncer,who was an
eye-witness of what occured, declares, that
all tl.at Mr. Clay raid previous to the last de-
monstration of Gen. Smith, when he threaten-
ed to take a view, .§~c. was obviously playful ;
“ then, indeed, he became serious, and said
to his threatener, ‘ talce it-talce it.’ And when
Gen. S. repeated the menace. but Still declin-
ed to execute it, Mr. Clay did repel the insin-
uation with an open defiance. The American
people will say he took the right course— a
course suitable to him as one of themselves,
and to his own character, for frank and her.-
orable bcaring. K53 was menaccd with a dis-
closure which \.\'a'-;‘ to distm.-,~;~ him, and on the
spot, and at the moment, he defied his adver-
sary to go on. Iflrc showed too much warmth
his countrymen will more readily excuse that
excess of an honest feeling, than they will the
artful veteran who, in the midst of his rage,
deliberately concoct a charge, which he dc-
liberately determned to‘make no effort at pro-
ring. Had Mr. Clay been s-lent, we sliolild
have heard the Globe and its affiliated press-
es all over the country, shooting the ‘- gallant
old Revolutioncr," " the venerable Ser.u.lor,”
in his place, and on his responsibility, told Mr.
Clay to his face, that he could “ take a view”
that would forever disgrace Mr. Clay, and
Mr.‘ Clay sat still, shrinking and -quailirig.--
But the old gentleman, wily and experienced
as he is, mistook his man.”

In looking over the columns ofthc Gazette
of the 24th and Slst ult. I find two communi-
cations over the signature of ‘- A i‘v‘lASON," in
which the writer has attcrnptcrl to defend the
institution of Free Masonry against the char-
ges of Antirnasons, and to show that they not
only have not sufficient reasons for origins.
ting and sustai ing a pnlitit 31 party, but are
pursuing a course ofunjust persecution and
prescription. From the belief, that you. Mr.
Editor, would be up; oscd to an ex-parse hear.
ing on this important subject, 1 aru lll(lL'C(.'Cl
to ask lcavc, tl tough the medium of your pa.
per, to present to the public what l conceive
to re rot only the facts in this casr‘, bill the
vi. ws and feelings of t!.ut party so unjustly
denounced by the writer of those c0rnmuriictt-
trons.

He says first. that “ our er-terriics assert ll at
our masonic obrgations require us to take the
lives of those \\liU reveal the secrets of the
fralrrnity. This charge we rrirst SUiCmKlly
deny." And then asks this quest"
it be possible that such riroii as l
Franklin, Warren, llainilton, an '

crs ofthe highest elevation of ch. ' a ' '~ .

piety, would remain aatachcd to, -.-. ~ ~:

an institution \\'IilCll bound lit: mernber-:, III a-
ny case. to commit unlawful and barbarous
acts.” We agree witih him in saying " the
thing is impu.~:sible.” And to shctv that Wash-
ington did not remain attached to, nor sustain,
the institution, we offer his own words. In
his letter to the Rev.Mr.Snyder, of Maryland,
dated Mount Veruoii, Sept 25th, 1793, in car-
I't3ClIia-g’ an error which Mr. Snyder had run
iiit.o of his presiding over the Lodges in this
country, he reiirarks : " The fact is, 1 preside
over nonr, nor have been in one more than
once or twice witliin t/lelasf tfrirfy years.” This
will carry us down to ’68, at which time there
were but three degrees of I“r::.-cmasonry cori-
ferred iii the United States. ,

The first general grand Royal Arch Chap-
ter in the United States was organized in
Philadelphia in 1797. In the following year
Grand Chapters were organized in N. Hamp-
sliirr, Mlssachusetts, Vermont, Rhode Island,
Connecticut, and New-York. In true Yankee
st) lo, the Grand Chapter ofRhodc Island soon
conceived the idea of irianiifacturing " letters
ofdispcnsation” for their southern brethren,
and by a rcsolutien of said chapter, passed
January 4th, 1804,, they invested their Grand
High Priest, King and Scribe, with full pow-
ers to sell, provided the purchasers slroultf pay
tbe rc quisite ‘sum into the hands of the Gene-
ral Grand Trcasurer. Accordingly, one was
sold to the citizens of Savarinali in December
following, and another the first day of March,
1805, to the Bl'8lll1',€n of South Carolina.

‘Now, Mr. Editor. I think if Mr. I-Iayne
would turn his attention to this species of New
England manufacture he could truly say that
it had not scattered its rich fruits over any
portion of the land, but had visited the south
with its consuming curses.

Again,W astiington in his letter to the some,
dated the 24th of Oct. following, he observes,
" It was not my intention to doubt that the
doc:rincs of the Illuminati; and principles of
Jacobinism had not spread in the U, States;
on the contrary, no one is more fully satisfied
of the fact than I am. The idea I meant to
convey was that I did not b€li8‘D6,l.llaI.’ the lodg-
ep of Free Masons in this country had, as so-
cieties, endeavored to propagate the diab_o‘ical
tenets of the first or t_he pernicious principles
of the latter, (if they are susceptible‘ of sepa-
ration.) Thatj individuals of them may have
done it, and that the power qr instrument em.
ployed _to fqurrdtbe Democratic Societies in
the Un1t€_d.S_ta_tes may have these oIy'ects, and
actually had It separation of the people from
their Governiricnt. in view is too evident to be
questioned."

With these feelings respecting secret soci-
eties, aware that individual masons were ac-
tive in spreading the doctrines of the Illumin-
ati, and that Masonry and llluminism were u-
pitcd as one in Europe, and that the connex-
ion in_ this country was in rapid progress.
Washington. in his Farewell Address, lifted
up his warning vcice against “ all obsfrustianr
to the execution of the laws, all combinations
and associations. under' whatever plausible
character, with the real design, to direct, con-
trol, counteract, or awe the regular delibera.
tion and action of the constituted authorities.
‘However combinations or association: of the
above" description may now and then answer
popular ends, they are likely in the course of

l

time and things, to become potent engines, by

.€\-,
. .3-, .~‘

which cunning, gmbiticus. and unprinciplcd
men will be enabled to subvert the power of
the pi=ople,'and usurp fr.r themselves the reins
of Goverunient." A man making use ofsuch
language we should be apt tocunclude felt no
great attachment to Free Masonry.

To substantiate the charge that masons are
required by their obligations to take the lives
of those who reveal the secrclzs of the institu-
tion, we offer first, extracts from the obliga-
tions of the Fraternity ; secondly, thezopiniori
not of those masons who like the Ninevites
know not their right hand from thrir left, but
the Grand Digriilaries of the order.

In the degree of Thrice Illustrious Knights
of the Cross is this obligation : “ You furtlier
swear, that should you know another to vic-
lale any e.-sential po:nt of this obligation, you
will use your most decided endeavors, by the
blessing of God, to bring such person to the
strictest and most comfign punishment, agree-
ably to the usages and rules of our ancient
Fraternity.” Again. in the degree of Elect-
ed Knights of Nine : “ I do solemnly swear
in the presence ofAlinig|ity God, that I will
revenge the assassination of our worthy master
Hii-urn Abifl', not only on the murderers, but
also on all who be-tray the secrcts of this degree.’
Also, in that of Knights Adopts of the Sur,
one of the Grand Dignitzrrics says to the cai:-
didate. “ By iliemau you saw'pceping.aml who
was discovered, and seized, and conducted to
death. is an emblem of those who come to be
initiatcdjnto our sacred m_vsteries, through a
‘W013-‘v9 of curiosity, and if so indiscrept as to
l divulge mg” .,;,},;jations we are ooum. £0 cause
tlioir death and take eeiigeovice on the treasmt
by the destruction q/‘tire traitor.” The Ixmghts
of Kadc-sh s\vc'-ar -‘ to take vciigteancc 00 the
traitors of Masonry." l mull-;l hcre remark
that in all the subordinate degrcesdpwn to t 1.“‘
Entered ./Ip; renlice, the c'.i:;dida'.c s.v.'c,t1.'s
that he will “ conform to all the B)‘c~laws,
rules,&, regulalio: s cftliis or any olh:-1‘ lodge.’

Next. what are the opinions of Masons on
this point ? One while delivering it publ c ora-
tion before his brethrenl I'.llll'll{ in Massacliu-.
sctts pr ct ions to the abduction of Morgan said.
“ lf Mus. my is ever desiired by God to fall
it will tall by the treachery of its own merit-
bers. but we unto that man who atfcmpls first
to draw aside the 'veil.’’ _

When an iritclligcur Royal .‘1rch Mason in
my neighborhood was first irrfurmcd tl.ut a
man by the name of Mr-rgan in New York
had re vealed the secrets of l\'lusoiiry. mithout
trnitiiig to be inforuied oftlie result, he imme-
di~.it.r_-ly replied “ then he is dead.” «

flguiii, when we find seccders from the it‘.-
stitulion publicly expelled by name all over
the country for rmmasonic conlluct, and those
m~d:iig-lit assassins who were C-:XlVlCl.Ctl ol'con-
trivirig the plot that led to the murder of a
free citizen, still ministering at the altar of
i\'i8St)llly in full fellowship, with lizirids red
with the blood of a murdered brother. how
can we escape from the inference from these
facts that llicy are not guilty of uninamnic
conduct. and that the Grand (ihuptcr and flu.-
« Grand Lodge of tlic Stalcof New-York. who
have full pc\t-'t~:i- to e.x,:el inc-tubers ofsubur.li-

The ratifications oftlie treaty with France

We understand from the New York Albi'
on, that by the London Metropolitan, receiv-
‘edrat that office by the Hannibal, that the fa-
.rnous passage in President Munioc's Message
of 1823, against the interference cf the Holy
Alliance in the affairs of the American Conti.
nent, was sent forth to the world by virtue of
a full understanding between him and Mr.
Canning, that the ground assumed was to be
maintained, if necessary, by the combined
force of British dz. American arms. It seems,
then, that ii conciliatory disposition existed
between Great Britain and America before
Mr. Van Burcn’s day. " '
