I regret that I am in justice to myself and others, compelled to weary the pa tience of my ’rentiers with ttie iletulls of u subject now so familiar to them. My statement is before them, which Mr, Grnntland has not dared to assail :,e con tradict—because he knows every word of it to he true. 1 can, however, assure him, that he has a much more serous task to perform in the vindication of his con duct in Burritt's Case, than mere com pliance with u rule of courtesy. Mr. Grnntland-piques himself upon his ac complishments in the School of the Gra ces, while he seems to have overlooked tiie weightier matters of his grammer, his classics, and the laws of his country.— lie thinks with Mr. Burritt's Council, “that his ease was not unlike that of “Acteon, pursued by his own hounds'’ f ‘ ho will turn to his mythology “ c xv jij that Actwon was devoted by his hounds, been use lie was was turned into a slag, for violation of certain sacred rights—that (his mefnmornhosis was not effected by part: that destroyed him.—but that they turncii upon nun, uecuuse, iu his transfiguration, he was fair game. < That a learned counsellor in the heat of argu ment, should have used thesimilc, is per fectly cxcuseable—but that Ids imitator, who hud six months for reflection, should have Inhered so long under the error, ar goes a wont of knowledge on his part, and perhaps a predetermination, to lay up for use at some future occasion like the present, n piece of classic lore perfect ly new to him. As Mr. Grantlund bus thought proper to refer to an expression of this gentleman, who (except some dif ference of political views)stands as high in my estimation as he cun in 31 r. Grant laud's—l will mention an opinion of his, uttered under circumstances of more de liberation. Colonel Lamar, after the trial, observed to me in the street, that I “could not have acted more prudently and cor rectly, if I had had sic months for refection. — Morels on expression of opinion from Mr. Burritt's counsel and Mr. Grnntliuid's political friend, fur above the standard of Mr. G ! s. jaundiced prejudices. Mr. Grnntland has been ns unfortunate in the application, ns he has in the con ception, ol Action’s story. He attempts to impress upon the public that Burritt’s political supporters were Ibo only per sons who joined in the chase against iiim. The kind of courtesy usually exercised by Mr. Grnntland towards some of the 'gentlemen to whom I he affair was opened, lias been indulged in this ease to the ex tent. This they had a right to expect from him. Bnt ldoubt whether Ihe Gov ernor, Gen. Mitchell and Mr. Torrance, who appeared for the State, A' Mr. Green, the Post-31 aster, were not surprised that Mr. Grnntland, in his extreme desire not to he thought “iineourteous,” should have ranked them among the “ hounds’’ that pursued this unfortunate “Act.t.on.” How ever Mr. Grnntland may endea vor to shield himself behind theskreen of humanity for Mrs. Ilurritfs afflictions, he stands forth before the public as the as sertor of ilurritfs innocence, and the vin dicator of his cause. This is fastened Upon him by bis own acknowledgements, however, prudent ho may find it to plead the cause of sympathy in justification of ids course, lie says, that he believed JBurritt innocent from the first. Why ho •liratvfclt araig glfrfriyUffgy* ■ I should have thought it necessary to in troduce Dr. Fort’s name, as one who wsa i present when he said so, I know not i He and the Doctor have no intercourse; and yet he seems to think it a matter of > some importance to have used his name. • Dr. Fort does not deny that Mr. Grnnt , land said it in the crowd present—but he > did not hear it. And it gives no addi r tional w'eight to his vindication to have > used the Doctor’s name—nor can any in - ference be drawn from it favorable to his cause. Did Mr. Grantland say at that time, it was a plot to ruin Burrltt and run him off* Why did he not then offer to befriend him and become his bail ? How ; unfortunate for him that he did not at , once act upon this belief, and save Mr. - Burritt from all the disasters that his con duct in procuring the pamphlets and cir f culating them in Georgia, and his subse ( quent elopement have brought upon him! - What an inexhaustible fund of moral • courage must Mr. Grantland possess, to C delay the cause of suffering justice, till he I could enlist the misfortunes of a lady on , the side of public feeling, before he could » venture upon the vindication oftheinno - cent! What confidence mast he have had • in the righteousness of the cause he has I espoused, to attempt to V"* il the indignp . tion of public opinion upon those wh o - were laboring for the public good, as hjs . veryfirst step toward the vindication 0. ; the accused! But says Mr. Grantland. » there was no evidence that the pamphlets , passed into improper hands. Was there - any evidence what had become of them? • Why did not Mr. Burritt produce the . four that were missing? Have they all I ever yet been accounted for ? But Mr. Bunitt’s guilt or innocence . had nothing to do with the conduct of I mysclfand the gentlemen who counselled i me. The whole facts of the case iqion . which they acted, are before the public— . they arc uncontradictcd by Sir. Grant , land, end incontrovcrtable—and are e nough to satisfy every unprejudiced mind of the correctness ami purity of their mo tives. There is not a gentleman of those who acted with me, whose character is . not as far above suspicion at le"st rjj Mr. Grantland’s. If f.'r. iiurritt had I friends in M*!!r.’gc'.ine, they w ere t hose t whose opinions determined my conduct. . The unfortunate stale of political feeling . here compels us to select our most confi , dentinl friends from our own political . ranks. Was it to be expected, that under , such a state of things, I should have assembled those men, who like Mr.Grant ’ bind, never would be friendly with Mr, Burritt, to puss upon his ease? It is ab surd. If Mr. Bnrritt hud felt himself in nocent and secure in the protection oflhe . laws, he had every reason to be confident in the purity of its administration. He . had been twice arraigned and pwke dis i charged l>efore that •."‘dbi-h of the Judi . Cln’ry most limited in its power mid jurie . diction, and this too in the face of public opinion. No voluntary Prosecutor np , pea red against him. He remained two . days and a half in the metropolis after his return from Augusta, ami no man pri vately interfered with bis person or bis business. During that period Mr. Bur ritt was advised by one of those very conspirators, os Mr. Grantland will have them, never to /use sight of the Pamj/hlel affair —but to face it and give to the world a fair and public vindication of his conduct, or he was a ruined man. He wont to the house of' another of these consiiirators, since deceas ed, and there scut for me to consult ns to the prudence of his future course. The next morning he suddenly disappeared, to ovoid, (as I was afterwards informed.) another prosecution, not connected with the Pamphlets. His departure was as unexpected to the conspirators, ifnot more so, than to any other persons. AfU •' his last discharge, he entered Upon his ordi nary business, from w hich I had retired, and with whicli I never again expected to be connected. At Mr. Burritt’s earnest request, I went, on the morning of his de parture, and settlie hands to work in the ufllce. This I did to oblige him. I then ceased my connection w ith the busine_, r of the office, tilt I was put possession j of it by a gOllt’.eir..,,, who hod a mortgage I “ ,n h, aiulwbp had for years been suppor ting Mr. Burritt in his business. This he did, A this I consented to, for the purpose • ofsaving (he properly from deterioration. After I had retired, there was no other person but the mortgagee who bad a right of possession. How else was he to se ; cure his rights after Mr. Bnrritfs nban ■ donment ? Was he to lose his lien for fear of Mr. Grantland’s displeasure.?— . Burritt’s departure was the effect of his . own determination. The attempt made | to arrest him at Augusta, was in conse quence of a communication, by one of Mr. , Granllnnd’epolftical fVitllf?'*. to the Atfor ■ ncy General of the State. This course,! • have no doubt, was dictated to Mr. Tor* - ranee by the purest regard for the public s safety and justice. The legal consequen i ees of Mr. Burritt’s elopement, to his pro i perty, wore beyond the control of tiny in i dividual. He knew* what they would he; - and if he had not thought his personal sc , canity more important to him than the • security of his property, he would surely , have remained to take care of the latter. I But here Mr. Grantland thinks he ha*, a most triumphant confirmation of Ids so - I etna charges. He evades nil my intorroga i (ions; to which public opinion required cii ; rcct and eatugoricul answers. By are I* newnl of his groundless imputations he makes my former conjectures “confirmation ' strong'' as the real motives w hich actuated - him, ami places them more in the form of i direct charges against not only myself, i but the high minded and honorable gen - tlemcn of both political parties, who act . od with me. He verifies his own propo -1 sition, that his “was precisely the course > which might have been taken by nn a , droit knave, less honest than Mr.’ Grant land,to accomplish his foul purpose." L Whether Mr. G. is entitled to the saving - clause in the sentence which follow s the , foregoing in his communication, is for flic , public, not forme to judge. t Mr. Grantland felt the force of my for t met* observation, that the vindication of • Mr. Burritt did not authorize him to pub lish an article exclusively impeaching my integrity. He says that he advised Mrs. Burritt to “‘say as little us possible of any [‘ one else which might cause irritation or ■ wound their feelings.” Vet he publishes the article just as it was sent. And has subsequently published another infinitely worse than the first. How then can Mr. Granthiud expect to get credit for this sort regard towards the “irritation and ’ wounded feelings'’ of others? After evading all my interrogations, which wore designed to do justice to my- . self and the gentleman concerned, and to i afford 3lr. Grantland an opportunity of I doing so to us and to himself, Mr. Grant ; land, with that severity of sarcasm and f point’ for which he is so remarkable, ex claims —“Ah! these attachments and this . sacrifice of property at Sheriffs’ Sale!— , “Thereby hangs a tale!” But this “laid’ . is as unhappy for Mr. Grantland as Ac -5 t.con’s. A few words will set it all strait. ! “Beit known then,” to Mr. Grantland, , that 31 rs. Burritt’s own brother had le t vied the largest Execution on the proper , ty. “Be it known” to 31r. Grantland, , that the sale was postponed fur some r time by his request. “Be it known” to t Mr. Grantland that 3lr. Watson bid off the property, and did not run it up to the . amount of his own Execution (the oldest . hut one) by several hundred dollars.— . “Be it known” to 31r. Grantland, that ! .Mr. Watson transferred his bid to 3lr. 1 Solomon, nl the very price that he had , given for the property. Who then sacri . deed it?—if there were any sacrifice. Be , it known to 3lr. Grantland that Eli S. I Shorter, Esq. and others, (who hardly know there is such a thing as a Clark I Party in Georgia,) are among the princi ; pal attaching Creditors. “Be it knewn” . fo3lr. Grantland. that the “'subscribers” of , (he late Statesman & Patriot are not : subject to levy and sale, like cattle and f negroes. “Be it known” to 31 r. Grant land, that their “advertising custom” is , not subject to levy and sale. “Be it . known” to 3lr. Grantland that there is a process recognized by our laws—called . a garnishment—and that it has been is -1 sued and served, and time will show “whom’’ will get the proceeds of the sub . scription list —(not the ‘'subscribers 1 ') and of f the “advertising custom,” &c. “Be it 1 known” to Mr. Grantland that the pro ; orictor bought this establishment for the • '.“Apress purpose of keeping it out of She hands of Us enemies —and that I Cake it upon myself t>> say that any gen- I tlr-mnn who can faithfully represent the views of its Patrons can have title and ! posses,ion, at any time, for a slim IcSs than i half #Ri!(fO, g* which Mr. Grantland has valued it. The proprietor does not now hold it as a source of profit. His object . in the purchase was of a much more ele vated character—the maintenance of our ■ political rights and opinions. And lam bound to believe that this is the true thorn in Mr. Grantiand’s side. Until 3lr. Grantland can disprove, the facts before the public and prove bis own accusation. 1 do list li;;;;!; it will be neces sary forme to say any thing in future. Hi? ehiefconcernisnovv hisown exculpation. Mr. Grantland has paid a very delicate compliment to fair .Tr.t’.ivi-iry/ tic intends, it seems, to purify our ermine. 'Phis he appears to think necessary; for says he, Burritt “ shall have a fair trial, it’l can got it for him!” Indeed, Mr. Grantland! Are you serious in the belief that the con sciences of the Judges mid Jurors of Georgia require to be passed through your moral alembic to distill them into those spiritual essences, so necessary to the righteous administration of justice?— If you should he as tardy in the perform ance of an operation so desirable in your estimation. a> you have been in bringing (lie crucible of yom own feelings to a melt ing hrat, poor Burritt might be tried and hung before the process is half completed. That little thing, the Jllhenian, (we wish we could be justifiable in treating it more respectfully) has taken the cue in Burritt’s case. We were unkind enough to look in his face and shake our pen at him some time ago—hut he look to his heels, and ran off complaining so pitifully, that wo have ever since hod. mercy on him and let him alone, lie has been since venturing nearer growling at our heels—till, finding he was unobserv ed, he has snapt at us Jrom behind a lady's cloak. Ho lias changed grounds only three times, (as far as our notice of him has gone) in the Ihirrilt ease. First believ ing it was the popular side, he highly apply V.cled oar conduct in (be transaction. Secondly—Hi 1 vilified ns for having been connected in business with Burritt.— Thirdly—lie comes out Bnrritfs advocate, byway of striker to the Recorder. Per haps he has seen our statement by this time. Wonder what the “wee bit thing’ will say to that! He apologizes in his last for the “infe riority” of his paper. It would be treating the public with much more respect to beg pardon for the inferiority of the matter in it. If we are not misinformed, Brother Jona than has entirely mistaken bis genius.— The retailing of “horn flints and wooden nutmegs” is thought, by those who have the honor ol his acquaintance, to be best suited to the towering splendor of Ids in tellect *o, a the delicate touches of his faltcy. But perhaps the creature is not so much to blame. He is said only to peddle polities for aim !'(■*■ —and if their stock will not afford bettor articles—he can’t help it. He must f ade upon the stock furnished him.—We therefore sny to the little fellow—i>, Pshaw! man!— peddle as much a- you please—crack np your little policy and . aide your Jersey over the country. You can only cheat little boys ami old wcir.cn with your vulgar “no . lions.” .Yota Bene.—Brother Jonathan has full li cence to peddle politics through n!i the ‘‘rotten boroughs ” of Georgia— Provided, lie , will not take Carpers letter with him. P. ft. b’-iiirp writing the above, wc have seen whnt the little thing says ofonr expo • sition of Bnrritfs ease. St is just wind wo expected from its character. Mr. Shaw's Editor, after having expressed three opinions, now skulks off, and says he has no opinion on the subject. If ho had possessed common discernment, ho would have seen that, for obvious rea son’s we did not reply to any allegations made by .Mrs. Burritt touching the facts of the case. He grossly and (we are hound to believe) wilfully misquotes and misrepresents our statements. To sum up his altitudes in this matter. First—. Mr. Shaw's editor expressed dee<- • ded approbation of our conduct—second— reproached ns for having bad connection in business with Burritt — third, became Burritt's advocate under female, protection— and fourth— after torturing his brain to glean against us so hie contemptible insin uations for political effect— he. has no rjdit ion at all!! —.Mr. Shirw would do well to engage some editor having better under standing and fewer prejudices. * Some persons Imvo said thnl Judge Clayton in liic pent Kdiior oflhe Athenian.

With nil due ference to the opposition, we think the charges justified their removal and S< * think the people. ’ b 0 The books of the Treasury represent several of those persons that have V, P removed, to be defaulters to Goveri . for large amounts; which will be a total loss.
