 TuseALoosA, (Ala.) Aug. 15, I844.

 Gsn l"mfa:-I have just la tae pl4a u~e to receive vour ? lite ihvitatop to na-ficiEa a in the da be atio anl counc Is of h mass convention oi Ga3'ga, fo be he. the city of Alacon. on the 22d ins.., wfth a view to the 'mamenlons questions involved n the pending Presidential canvazs :'' and | regret to say, thai it will be out of my DOW CT to indulge the sincere gEa,ifca ion and high honor which that interesting occasion would aao q me taassaciate and coasuE4t { the choice spirits of Georgia who will be present, and thereby ito lend (mv humhle} ald i'll the malntenance of those great Demo aie ? iaeiplas, which alone can secure the p3rpetulty of the Union, and the purity of it's republican nstltndons.n

 Ton doubtless aware. gentlemen, that until lately, have foe many yeas acted with the whig party, and may add, honestly. faithfully and eoascentiou-Iy, as many of yoar late representatives in Congress can tes- nly.

 During my official cooperation win that party, the Ptopsiey of a United Ssa5es Bank and Us proposed alternative, the sub-tfeast ", constituted. in my estimation, the great anu leading questions of party division. l be- l'eved the former to be republican measure, aa'j, n qualified form, more expelient than the latter. and therefore, supported t. The arlii, to which, as a measqFe of pfoteca0g and bounty, haze always been opposed, had been compromised, and we were assured by all Q! that party. until l8i2. and by their 2 eaL leader ualil very recently, thaI the com Ptoinise shaall he faithfully execu ea accard- lag to Us leans.

 Bat what have we seen within the lazt twa years We have seen the emPr9mise entire iy rspHdia5ed by the Whig mIyl Even ia t.se S9ah-the free trade Sta.es figh rspIh- bcal Sou,h-onlY two whigs, of all the del- 'gaGol of that party, are found true to her interests, hef psi4eiples, and her hano9tl-- Georgia has the credit of posse ,siag the oae and Mississippi the other, of those noble and reliable spirits. As long as time shall roll, the names of Henderson, of Mississippi, add CaapPell o Georgia, will be remembered and honofed for their fifnness, independence and devotlon 10 principle, regardless of the tam mels of interruptions party.

 The compromise explicitly stipulated, that in times of peaee, ihe maximum rate ot duly should not exceel twenty per cent upon the value of ;he 'tlele taxed; that the value of imports shoul be linlael at the cufseng pHice in our own markets; that ihe duties should be paid dowa without eae lit; and that eeftlin specified articles 5mosGy foe the Use and benefit of the maluar Il CTS, should be impo Jed fee of daty. Taase ate all of is e ms in a eW words The first Is the benefit of free tale-alI the rest ne ptom1- tive of the manufacturing interests and opa- rae us protection or houaty-mlch more tlan should have been yielded. Yet being the contract, we felt baanl to execute t llt- e.allF on onr part

 flow have the whig party kept their faith The tariff of l8l2 passed hy whig Cor gross, l. emineldy pcoteellye, and an unhlash- ing abandonment of the compromise aci, hoai ill letter and in spirit. 1 cannot here go iato de,ail to prove this assertion; but it is SO clear to every one at all conversant with the subject, that none who valnetr,lth, will ven iu-e to coniroveft it. zhas been sgniiieant- ly asked, however, why did not the last Con- gre s. being democratic, repeal the tariff ot 1872? Fne reply is, that the great body O. Democrats attempted to do SO, and would have certainly succeeded had they been sus- mined by the southern whigs representing anti-tarif States or districts. The fact that il su iicieat number of north fn democrats, re presenting ia,ff districts, voted against the repeal to defeat it, furnishes no excnse or apology whatever, for the sane course on the part of Southern whg,, representing an- ti-afllf districts.

 We have also seen, of late, efforts maie, anl successfully believe. in part, to revlve thc explode, ana we hal hapad entirely abandoned. scheme of local internal improve n .nts, psessel 50 slfea0olIY by the lam administration some yeas ago. We hay seen il whig Congress proclaim il one bfeaih the haakrupicy Of the teleal treasury, anl in the next pass q law to cnt off an import ant source of reyenue--the proceeds of the public lands; and this, too, at the very time that they authorised the executive to borrow money to preserve the public faith and crel- 1it!!
