Ik. Everitt,
PLEASE to inform the Electors of
thatharn County, that Mr. Henry W.
Wiiiiams is a candidate for the otlice of
Clerk of the Superior and Inferior
Courts. Among the great number of
candidates for this important office, per
mit me to observe, that none of them are
more capable, possessed of more inte
grity, or under a better moral character
add to this, his having had six years ex
perience in the same office in the comi
ty of Effingham, where he acquitted
liiinself with much credit ; and further,
that he has a large family of small and
helpless children, and the indigence of
his circumstances, and I trust, that eve
ry friend to merit and humanity will feel
interested for his success. It may, and
no doubt will be said by his opponents,
that he has an office of much profit.
Suffer me, Mr. Everitt, to trespass a lit
tle further on your patience, till 1 ask,
whether the office of Clerk of the May
ors’ Court (since the late regulations
made by the state Legislature) is ade
quate to the support of a wife and four
•mail children,
A Friend to Merit.

No. 12. —Communication made by the
■Earl oj 1 armouth to Air, Recvetary
Pox, dated June 13, 1806 ,0J’ course not
mentioned in the Mmiteur,
A few days after my arrival at Paris
from the depot at Verdum, Monsieur
Talleyrand desired me to call upon him ;
having done so, he told me that the
French government had been looking
out lor some means by which a secret
and confidential communication might
he made, explanitory of the sentiments
and views ol franco, as well as the out
lines of the terms on which might
be restored between the two countries.
Having' mentioned the extreme desire
ot making this communication in such
a manner that no publicity might in any
case ensue, should the object of it not be
obtained, Monsieur Talleyrand proceed
ed to state, in a long argument, vv hich it
is useless to repeat, as it forms the sub
stance of several of the French govern
ment’s dispatches, the reason which pre
vent their treating for a general peace
jointly with Russia. He said, that in a
dispatch sent some weeks before to Mr.
Fox, he had been ordered to name Lisle
rather than Amiens for the negotiation
of a definitive treaty, in order to remove
all former discussions, and to facilitate
to England the possession of Malta. 1
then took the liberty of interrupting M.
Talleyrand to say, that however butter
ing the confidence he was ordered to
place in me might be, yet that, feeling as
I did, the interests, and, above all the
honor of my country, it was impossible
for me to be the bearer ol a communica
tion having peace for its object, against
which I should fee! obliged to vote in
Parliament; and viewing the restoration
of Hanover in this light, I cculd not re
ceive any further communication till I
had an explicit declaration with regard to
his majesty’s German Dominions.
M. Tulle rand'then broke ofT the con
versation. desiring me to return the third
day after. At the expiration of this time
I waited on him again, when he inform
ed me that, considering the extreme
stress which appeared to be laid upon
this point, Hanover should make no dif
ficulty. Authorised by the coaces
sion of that in which the honor of the
Kmg and that of the nation appearet,
most interested -I inquired whether
the tiossessioa of Sicily would lie r'r
1 mandril, it having been so said : a (a)
Vous l’avez, nous tie vous la demandons
pas; si nous la pcssedions ellc pourroit
..ugmenter de beaucoup les difficul
ties.” Considering tins to be ver\
positive, both from the words and the
manner of delivering them, 1 conceiv
ed it improper to make further ques
tions.—* (h) Nous tie vous deman
dons rien,” amounting to an admission
of uti possidetis as applicable to his
majesty’s conquests.
M. ‘Talleyrand mentioned strongly
the recognition of the Emperor and
the different branches of his family as
absolutely expected. On this 1 took oc
cason to state the solidity which the re
cognition of Great Britain would give to
their establishment, and enquired whe
ther the French government w ould gua
rantee the integrity of the Ottoman Em
pire. The answer was yes; but it must
he soon, “(c) Beancoup seprepare mais
rien n’est fait.” Reverting to the first
conversation, I enquired to know whe
ther a middle term might not be found
at some time to obtain the object des’ued
by the Frcuch government, and that de
sired by Great Britain, of not treating iu
a manner unconnected with Russia. ‘To
this he answered, that they were entirely
ready to give every facility to the ar
rangement of the respective interests
of the two powers, or that a British
minister should, being authorized by
the Emperor Alexander, stipulate for
both.
The last words of Talleyrand were
(and), “ Les sentiments de la France
sont entierement changes ; I’aigreur
qui caracterisoit le commencement de
cctte guerre l’existe plus, er ce que
nous desirons le plus, e’est de pouvoir
vivre en boone intelligence avec une
aussi grande Puissance que la Grande
Bretagne.”

You are in poffeflion of it; we do not ask

ing is yet done.
I {*) The lentiments entertained in France are
entirely different from what they were. The
I asperity which characterized the commence
ment of this w-ar no longer exists; and what
we moil desire is, to live in harmony with lo
great a power as Great Britain.

HOW oft my Chloe, have I Cgh’d,
For what I’ve never dat'd to tell,
When I’ve beheld, in panting pride
Thy snowy bosom graceful swell.
But why conceal my passion longer,
Why, why not now , that love impart,
Which ilill, as time revolves, grows ilronger,
And deeper wounds my burning heart t
Beauty was form’d by fav’ring heaven,
To heighten thirftfor love’s fweet potion ;
And power of words to man was given,
To breathe each tender, warm emotion.
Then here, divine enchantress, turn then; —
To radiant beauty, thu- I kneel then ;
Think of the glowing flames that burn me,
And oh ! be taught by me to feel them.
But though, my sweet, I thus adore thee,
Though more than life thy love I prize ;
Yet breathe not pity I implore thee,
Or give me love, or else despise.
For what is pity, but a thorn,
Whose point would wound that breast so
dear ?
Since, though she is of virtue born,
She s Itill the parent ot a tear.
I might, in secret, bear thy hate,
The tortur’d breast, would then be mine,
But sur L v’o, fink beneath my fate,
Should I implant a thorn in thine.
The rose springs frelher on thy cheek,
Before more bright, than gardens fee ;
Is this a proof of love ? oh ! speak,
Say that it is, and turn to me.
She turn’d in gentle accents faying,
“ Tis baseness call’d to hide the truth,
“ Sure love, like yours, deserves repaying,
“ Take, take my own then, dearest youth.”
In joyous luxury of bliss,
Once more I view’d her beauties o’er,
Imprinted on her lips a kiss,
And vow’d an oath to part no more.
