Informs that he has been elected governor of South Carolina (on December 10, just two days prior), and that nullification will proceed, despite the protests of Unionists in Charleston. Instructs that he should be kept informed as to the course of affairs of the other states and Congress on this matter. Wants the recipient, Senator Stephen Miller, to write to him once a week and give him "the earliest and most authentic information on this subject." Remarks that he has "no doubt that the State [South Carolina] will be nobly sustained in her present position." Notes in a postscript that John C. Calhoun has been elected to the Senate.
