The following eloquent and pertinent re-

 marks are extracted from the Article of Notification, in the last North American Re- view:

 con the day that the intelligence should be received, that South Carolina had obstruCted the execution of law of the United States, the President, if he did his duty, would cali out the militia of North Carolina, of Tennes- sec, and of Georgia, to enforce it, Gas Gene ral Washington called out the militia of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Maryland, 1794;) nay, he would call out the militia of South Carolina herself, for one of the three cases, which tile Constitution provides; and the example of Massachusetts has well taught the States of this Union to beware If with holding their militia when called out under an act of Congress, or of undertaking to judge for themselves whether the exigency exists. Then the port of Charleston, if de- clared free by South Carolina, would be put in a State of blockade by Congress- The Columbus, and the Independence, and the Franklin, and the Brandy wine, and the Lex ington, would one by one take their stations on the edge of the bar; and, last of all, the poor old Constitution herself, almost ceval with her afflicted namesake, would obey the unwelcome summons. She would come, not skimming over the waves like the sea-bird that scarce vets his bosom on the snowny crest; not ringing with glad shouts, and the rapture of anticipated triumph, as when she ranged like mighty monster of the deep, be- meath the castles of Tripoli, striking them dumb as she passed; or as when she spread her broad and glorious banner to the winds, and rushed like a strong man rejoicing to run a race, on the Guerrier and the Java.

Who could support the sight when squadron of the United States of America should obey the stern command of duty, and rush down in dark and fatal array on the palmetto fort t!-But worse sight than this must be borne. By the necessity of the political system in which we live; necessity stronger than parties; whatsoever State shall drop from this Union, will fall into the arms of England. We know that this is bitter necessity to patriot State, but 1t would be her inevitable doom. Scarcely will the squadron of the United States have appeared off the waters eff Charleston, to engage reluctantly in civil war with their brethren, when a British fleet will hasten to relieve the free port; and the Royal George, and the Sove- reign, and the Majestic, and the Leopard, and the Shannon, will be arrayed against the United States, in alliance with South Caroli- na Into what condition will this plunge the United States, of the disunited State? We freely 'admit that it would plunge the United States into an abyss of suffering. On South Carolina itself it would bring a direr scourge than foreign or civil war; a beHum, hlasguan civile, in which, in the most terrific sense, a mans ".foes shall Dc those of his Household. :" Counterfeit bank notes of the Branch Bank of the United States, at Washington, in circulation, says the New-Jersey Chronicle; and are very good limitations They are made payable to the order of, and endorsed by R.
