Havoc, Nov. l'3.—Lloyd’s Lists ofthe
9th, which we received this morning,
aiinonncc a sad event, which we have
barely time to notice;
'I‘iui~:.-'ri;, ‘.37th October.
By a ship arrived this morning in ‘
days from Smyrna, we learn the loss of
of the American frigate Constellation, at
Rhodes. All on board perislieil excpt
the Captain and six of the seamen. In
the same gale a Greek stcunboat was
lostin the Gulfof Volo, with every thing
on board, cargo, crew and passengers.
From what we know of the position of
the Constellation about the time the dis-
aster must have liappcned, and from the
apparently uutlientic shape in wliicb the
intelligence reaches us, there is we lament
to say, very little doubt of its correctness.
The Constellation left Smyrna on the
l3tli October, and gave convoy to the
brig Junius as far as the vicinity of
Rhodes, where she partedqcoinpany on
the 18th, and w-as intending to return to
Smyriia. OuTiiesday of last week, we
published along letter from one of her of-
ficers, dated the same day, and put on
board the Junuis when they parted com-
nanv. The vessel at Trieste must have
left §‘:;wx'riia on the llth, which was two
days before the sailing ofthe Constella-
tion. In order to l.':iii_g this painful intel-
ligeiice, therefore, she must have stop-
ped at Rhodes or some of the neighbor-
ing islands. The Constellation sailed
from Norfolk for Madeira,_Lisboii and
the Mediterancau, on the 10th of April
last, expecting to be absent about three
years. The following was a list of her

That. if he refused this. a French army should
march at that date into Belgium, and dis-

the combined fleet of England and France
should blockade the coast. of Holland and cap-

embargo should be laid on all such in the ports
of France and England.
To the ultimatum which followed this con-
vention, the king of Holland returned on the
2d of Nov. a decisive negative.

The combined fleet were at Archon, in the
Downs, ready to proceed to the coast of H01-

and England, and some Dutch vessels had
been captured. War has of course commen-

ticle in a late Charleston Mercury : —

ria what we think of the conduct oftheir
crisis of the destinies ofthe South.
They have maiifully resisted the very
power that we are now resisting. Their
one of defiance. Does it become them
to league with that power against us?
Did we league with it against them? But
we put in no claim to their gratitude. ‘Vs
appeal to reason, to justice. Let them
compare the usurpation which Georgia
resisted on the threshold,.with that which
after years of suffering, of rcmonstraucc,
and warning, we have resolved to toler-
ate no longer. In her case the General
Government, did stretch its powers; it
was irilfavor ofthe poor Indian, not of the
rich capitalist. It was an interposition
in behalf of weakness; and if the cou-
dnct of the federal authorities was dicta
ted by a mistalien sense of justice, the
violation ofright was at least disinterest-
ed, and was even graced by the plea of a
onerous humanity. This, to the tyran-
ny which we have nullified, was “Hype-
rion to a Satyr.” Here no solitary cu-
nobleing motive can be imagined ; but iii-
solent avarice obtrndes its sordid front in
uninsked bascncss, and exercises the
rivilcge to plunder u ndcr the form oflaw.
And shall Gorgia, that struck down forth-
with the federal arm, when extended to
shield the fr.-eblc.—sliall she preach to us

thing is intciisly, pitifully ridiculous !—-
Georgia reading homilies of submission
——exclairning against Carolina's resis-
tance as uiiconstitutional—signitying liar
abhorrence of it as violent ! VVhy, the

Gov. Troup, and Gen. Gaines, and Pres-
ident Adams are scattered thickly around
her l Gav. Gilmer’s messages are smo-
ous combustion! whilst at her right hand
stands the “measurably obsolete" Gov.
Lumpkin, chanting a nasal ditty of“con-
sti'ntional harmony," and beating time
with his gnuiitlted fist in the face of Mr.
Chester, who is clamoring for a hearing
ofthe cause of his reverend clients !-
VVhy it is Gloucester at his devotions ; it
is Samuel ‘among the prophets ; it is the
Devil chiding sin ; and her treatment to
the Federal Government is like that of
the Italian sailor to his saint in a storm,
now praying to him and vowing him a
wax candle; and now, at an odd lurch
of the ship, cursing him for it cheat and fl
villain. .
It is impossible that Georgia can long
continue blind to her true position. The
rest of the Union can see no difereuce
when she makes a distinction ; and they
laugh when she abuses nullification, yet
glories in having nullified—when she de-
claims against the belligerent tendencies
of Carolina's resistance, while she is her-
self braiidishing the bavonet against the
Supreme Court and its Marshal. The
people of the north, almost to a man,
pronounce her nullification and ours in-
dcntical. The Clay party will insist that
theygshall be tried by the same rules;
and even the Van Buren party can keep
up the farce no longer—of calling the
same’ thing by different names. ‘ And if
the administration, after‘ its countenance
to Georgia dare throw its weight into the
scale against us, it will stamp itself with
prolligacy, and cover itself with ridicule
and disgrace.

The present was it moment of deep
and alarming interest to the people of
tlii.-*,couutry. Events were on the wing,
that must speedily produce mighty influ-
euccs on the pemiuiicncy of‘ our gov-
criiineut. The Proclamation of the Pre-
sident, calling upon the people of the
‘V9 slicnld,lic insisted, hurl back instant
scorn and defiai1ce,for this importuiit mis-
sile of despicable nin|ignit.y. Of answer
to itspaltry sopliisins, and disgraceful
invectives, it was utterly_unv.'orthy. But
the country and the world should know,
how perfectly we despise and defy him l
and they should be told that, before they
plant such principles as his upon our free
soil, the bones of many an enemy shall
it hitcii our shores - the carcasses of many
a cutitfand traitor blacken our air.
He offered therefore, the following
resoiutions : \Vhercas, the President of
the United States has issued his procla-
mation, denouncing, the procedings of
this State, calling upon the citizens to
renounce their primary allegiance and
threatening them with military coercion,
iinwarrnuted by the constitution, and
utterly inconsistent with the existence
of 8 free State. Be it therefore,
V Resolved,Tliat his Excellency the Gov-
eruor be requested forthwith to issue his
prclaiiiation, warning the good people of
this State, against the attempt of the Pros-
ident ofthe United States to seduce them
from tbeirallegiance; cxliortiiigthem to
disregard his vain menaces, and to be pre-
pared tosustaiu the dignity and protect the
liberty of the State, against the arbitrary
measures proposed bytlie President.
A gentleman upon asking the reading
of the proclamtion, Mr.VV.l’. F iuly arose
and went through it. The House listened
to it with an exceedingly marked indig-
nation. At the passage, however, where
thePresident calls us “his children,” anti
talks to the State “like a father,” there
was a general laugh over the whole house.
Messrs. R. Bnrnwell Smith, lsaac
Holmes, and F. Pickens succecssively
arose, and expressed with great eloquent-.
and spirit, views of equal detestation
and contempt against this proceeding.-
Mr. Smith insisted, that as it breathed the
very worst doctrines of consolidation, and
called in the most violent methods of enfor-
cing them-—and, more especially as it
held even the tyrnnical_;doctrine, that we
had not even the right to secede, all men,
of all parties’ must refuse to sanction it
by their votes. He called, therefore, for
the yens and nays. They were taken:
Yeas 90 Nays ‘.24; every Union man
voting against the resolutions.
From the Patriot.
The 1lI_crcury and its coadjiitors con-
tinue to pour the vials of their bitterness
upon the Chief Magistrate. There is no
surprise in this. The proclamation came
like a thunderbolt to the leaders of the
party. They had no expectation that
their manifesto of war against the Gen-
eral Goveriiment would be met by such
a counter-manifesto. It puts to fright
all solemn nsscveration of the peaceable-
of secession in a State.

and the Coiistitiitiou, presented a proper
occasion for the citizens to express their
opinions. The Proclnmzition itself was
an occurrence of great‘ importance. As
he had iiitiinatcd on ii former occasion
(at the VVorcestcr Convention)ahc thought
the crisis called loudly upon the Chief
Magistrate to express his opinions ; to re-
buke the spirit of disunion and opposi-
tion to the laws, prevailing in one por-
tion oftlic country, and to call upon the
people to discountcuancc every act ten-
ding to put the peace and integrity of
the Union in jeopardy. He rejoiced
that the President liad done so. The
principles ofthe proclamation were such
as he heartily ‘approved. (Applause)
He believed tlicin to be the only true
principles --the true principles of govern-
mom on which the Constitution was foun-
«led, and upon which it must be sustain-
ed, (Applausc.)‘ It wnsnow apparent

under stand it to mean nothing less in

tary force to resist the laws of the Union.
Their first act has been to put the whole
millitary power of the State into requisi-
tion, to enforce what they had proclaim-
ed to be apeaccable remedy. Such had
always been his understaudingof the nu-
avoidable tendency of_ the doctrine" of
Nullification, the moment it should be re-
duced to practice. He hoped he might
