ers which
have been given to the commanding officers of the land and naval forces
assembled in and near the city of Charleston and within the limits of
the State of South Carolina, and which relate to the military operations
in that quarter. No order has at any time been given in any manner
inconsistent therewith. There is a part, however, of the letter of the
Secretary of War dated December 3, 1832, omitted, which, being
conditional in its character, and not relating to the operation of the
troops, it is deemed improper in the present state of the service to
communicate.
No order has been at any time given "to resist" the constituted
authorities of the State of South Carolina within the chartered limits
of said State.

_To the Senate_:
The renomination of Samuel Gwin to be register of the land office at
Mount Salus, in the State of Mississippi, having been on the 16th of
July last laid upon the table of the Senate, with a resolution declaring
that it was not the intention of the Senate to take any proceeding in
regard to it during that session, a vacancy in the office was found
existing in the recess, which the public service required to be filled,
and which was filled by the appointment of Samuel Gwin. I therefore
nominate the said Gwin to the same office.
In addition to the papers which were transmitted with his nomination at
the last session, I have received others from the most respectable
sources in the State of Mississippi, bearing the fullest testimony to
his fitness for the office in question. Of this character are the
