Beginning at the upper extremity of the fli-di Shoals of the Apalachie river, the Huns being a branch of the Oconee river, inJon the* southern bank of the fame; tunning thence a direst course to a noted fnM of tlic foath branch of Little river, died bv the Indians Chutto-chucco Hitchee ; thence a diredl line to the main branch of Commiffioher’s creek, where the fame is interfered by the path leading from the Rock Landing to the Ocmulgee OH Towns; thence a direst line to Pal metto creek, where the fame is interfeH dby the Uchee path leading from the j fame to the Ocmulgee river; thence down tie middle waters of the laid creek, to O conec river, and with the weitern bank of the fame, to its junction with the Oc jnuigee river, thence across the Ocmul gee river, to the foath bank of the Alata nni'a river, and down the fame at low water mark to the lower bank of Goose creek, and from thence by a dire it line to the mounts on the margin of the Okefl nocau Swamp, railed and eftablifhcd by the commiflioners cf the United States and Spain, at the head of the St. Mary’s river; thence down the middle waters of tire Lid river to the point where the old line of demarkation (trikes the fame ; thence with the said old line, to the Ata taciaha river, and up the fame to Goose (T'-ek. On Monday lad Brigadicr-General Wilkinson arrived in this place, and on Weduefdav an Entertainment was given to him and his Suite, by the Citizens. To the Commander of the Army of the United States, this initance of honora ble attention, was naturally due, but it was paid with hearty enthaSafm, when they beheld iu him, the early fupporterof our revolution, the fuccefstul negociator with our Indian brethren, and the iteady friend of JefFerfon. What his been ob served on a similar occasion, might truly be affirmed, that “ facial happmefs came to offer her thanks to valour and to pa tri'jtifm.” Previous to dinner, the Vo lunteer Companies of Infantry and Ran gers tamed out and received the General 1 tinder presented arms, and fired a fahue of fixtee'n rounds.

The \ Students then exhibited upwards of twenty fpecimcns ot oratory, feleded from vari ous writers., and chiefly relative to the American revolution, and its interesting conl'cqucnccs. The entertainment was varied with fcveral dialogues; and Tome pieces in the Latin, Greek, and French languages, were pronounced. The audience was very attentive, and retired highly pleated with the entertain ment. Their fatisfadion was douhtlcfs heightened by the reflexion, that, on this spot, (the Cedar Jhoals) the lavages of the wilderness, hut a few years ago, used to prepare themselves to spread terror, de solation and death, among the fettlefncnts callward of the Occnce, which was then the frontier. On the 3d July, (in commemoration of the 4th) Captains Abercrombie and De vereux paraded the Hancock Troop ®f Horse, and the Company cf Artillery in Sparta, and after going through evoluti ons and marching, the Troop of Hcrfe repaired to Captain Hall’s, and the Artil lery to an Arbour at the Town Spring, where Dinners weie prepared, after par taking of which, a detachment from each corps joined in the public square, and fir ed fixtccn rounds from signals given in fucccflion by the Companies, accompanied with the following Toasts, and lucccded with martial music : 1.

The fair daughters of Columbia. 1 Mr. Smith, By publishing the following ftatcment you will much oblige, your obedient, hum ble servant, HUGH M. HULL. The controversies of individuals, though often lubjeds of public curiofuy, are leJ dom deserving of public concern. I of fer no apology for the present ftatcment, if it is not important it will not be tedi ous. ' In company with several others, I sign ed a 11 proteli” against the Continents ox preded in some of the Toasts drank by the company of Artillery in this place, of which 1 have the honor to be a member, on the 3d iml. I signed ii, because 1 was unwilling to join in the puue of thnfh who were the avowed enemies of the ad minillration of the general government ; and because I was unwilling to join in the Hander, however indirect, of a nun, whom 1 am proud to call my friend ; whom I know to be amiable in private, and be lieve to be pure in public life. In the Herald, immediately following, an ano nymous publication appeared, ridiculing the protclt I had signed, and couched in language which 1 considered pcrfonally olFcnfivc. A variety of circumstances, which need not be enumerated, led me to fufpeft one of those who was employed to prepare the toads, as the author of the burlcfque publication ; willing to give gq _ opportunity of removing the fufpieion, 1 pubiilhtd a general Card, which contain ed a requell, that the author or authors fiiould avow thcinfelves. This being re fund, I followed the diflates of my Frit fufpieion, and lint the following note, by my friend captain Cormick, to Mr. Do nald MTver: Sir—Being strongly imprefled with a belief that you are the author of a hnr lefque publication on a protest, to which my name and others were signed, or af fixed in the production, which I conceive was intended to convey a personal insult to me, 1 call on you to deny or acknow ledge it. In the latter case, my frlcncT" captain Cormick, will make such arranges-'* merits with you, as will be fatisfadtory to my feelings. I am, &c. HUGH M. HULL. To this Mr. M‘lver sent the follow ing answer; In answer to your note, I do not con ceive myfclf bound to give you any ex planation, whatever—much Ids to make any fort of arrangements. DONALD MTVER. ■ J u b 21, 1802. Doctor ‘ Hull. Considering the intimacy which fiibfift ed between Mr. MTver and rnyfelf, this evasive answer confirmed the fufpieion I had entertained. 1 his fufpieion I nonjv^ m ' entertain strengthened by subsequent cor refpondencc. 1 leave it to the world to form their opinion of one, who, profefling friendfhip, could anonymously traduce : and when called on to answer, could meanly prevaricate. Should Mr. MTver* feel himlclf in jured by any tiling here publiflied, he will find me ready to render that fatislac tion to his feelings, which he has denied to mine; and in consequence of which denial, I thus publicly declare him to have added inconfiftentlv with the honor of a gentleman, and spirit of a man.
