Georgia republican & state intelligencer. (Savannah, Ga.) 1802-1805, November 24, 1802, Image 2
of k h<* u high federal charadfer.” Wc
ihereforr state it as our decided opin
ion, and on which we think the public
ma v with afety re’y, that General
11 AM- l row is that Ci high federal
rharafier.” His connection with Mr.
Ogden, the negociator, is known to
be of the moft intimate and endearing
kind. His knowledge of the r.egoci
anon, will not therefore be doubted.
He is also known as having long held
predoo inant controul” in the federal
party. The afhul influence of gen
eral Hamilton in that party corref.
ponds precifcly with the defeription
given in the two letters. Befules,
there are other corroborating circum
flanres which irrefiftably impose upon
us the belief that general Hamilton is
the “ high federal character” deferib
ed. Wt will mention a powerfnl one.
During the fitting of the Supreme
Court of this fate at Albany, in the
winter of 1801, jofiah Ogden Hoff
man, F*'p invited in that city, a party
of gentleman to dine. General Ham
ilton, Judge Troup, Judge B. Liv
inofon, and Judge Pendleton, all of
the city of New-York, were of the
party.
After dinner general Hamilton
declared openly, that Mr. Burr had
intrigued with a federal gentleman to
efrefi his election to the prefidenev.—
When fpokrn ter on the boldness of
the declaration, general 1 lamilton ad
ded t.hai he could prove if, or it could
be proved in a court cf justice ! The
negociation was there made no secret
c r : general Hamilton made the de
claration aloud and without reserve.
There are other faffs in our pof
feff.on, which authorife us to (late,
unequivocally, that general Plam
jlton is the “ high federal character”
alluded to in the two letters. If he
is net, he will deny it publicly ; if he
is, he has too much honor and inte
grity to difayow an aCt of his own.
If these faCts (land in need of corro
boration, there are concurring circum
flances in abundance which (trongly
indicate the existence of the plot. The
letter dated Washington, 29th Janu
ary, 1801, dates that Mr. Burr oh
ferved, in reply to the feccnd propo
fuion of the negcciator, to wit, <c what
co-operation he could and would af
ford towards procuring fncccfa to his
own election ?” That u the federal
ids might be allured that New-York
and Tennessee on a second ballot,
would vote for him, and that probably
New-Jersey and one of the southern
dates might be induced to do the
fame.” Such was the answer of Mr.
Burr to the fccond proportion of the
negotiation*
The negotiation was commenced
in the city of New-York, about the
15th ot January, 1801. The letter
of general Hamilton to a leading fed
eral member of congrels, detailing
the negotiation, was written about the
20th of the lame month. That which
gives the sub (lance of general Hamil
ton’s letter, is dated Washington,
ntiary 29th, 1801. The negociation
was complete before January 20th.—
On or about the 24th of January, mr.
Burr left this city for Albany, to take
his feat in the date aflemhlv. The
lame day, or the day after, mr. William
P. Van Nefs, who was not a member
of the Legfflature, followed mr. Burr
to Albany, On the arrival of mr.
Burr, enquiries were made of him,
touching the presidential election.—
To every question he answered, with
the utmod confidence and cheerful
nefs that mr. Jeiferfon would certainly
be elected, and that nn opposition
could or would be made in the house
of Reprefe tatives. He uniformly
treated the idea of material oppolkion
in the house as extravagant and chim
erical. This was precifcly the con
duct of mr. Burr at Albany. And yet
he knew that he had negotiated with
mr. Ogden to effect his own election
to the presidency, and th it in conle
quence of that negociation every ef
fort within the compals of the federal
party would be exerted to acco.nplifh
ir. This conduCl of mr. Burr at Al
bany, was iuch as every consummate
and unprincipled intriguer would
adopt. It was a matter of impor
tance to him to prevent the tranfmuTi
on of letters from Albany to Wash
ington, urging firmnefs and persever
ance in our representatives i 1 favor of
mr. J e fieri on’s election *, and mr. Burr
vainly imagined his placed deportment
calculated tp corrpafs that object by
uV tying reafonablc fears and coudo
fi.uj alarming apprehenfuus. IT$
intrigues were, however, perceived by a few
individuals at Albany, and his representations
were therefore little heeded.
Get us now view the conduct of his verv
confidential friend mr. William P. Van Nefs
of this city, who accompanied mr. Burr to
Albanv. Those who have read the “ Narra
“ five’’ will perceive that this is the fame gen
rleman who negotiated for mr. Burr the iup
preflion of the hiffory of the adminittration ot
mr. John Adams.
