Perhaps a more ftrift of the du ties of religion,‘ bave rn no part'rtf the state been more faithfully, and pundluaWy attended ’o. than by theanfrerit Lutheran Congregation long since eftablilbcd and persevered in by (ts members in this town. Whilil’ tbis condudt cannot but m-et public applauffpit also serves ,diew the good effefls produced from a ‘ ligious conduit, and illustrates the excellence and (lmplicily of the chriftian religion A re ’ Jigiem that appears to me, Well defervin<r the countenance and support of all good men however, they may differ as to modes of faith or worlh.pol the Supreme Being-and Ruler of the Lmverle-yand, that a .reli'igious conduit is not only necessary to ourselves, but a perma nent requifne to the support of good order and government, is finely and emphatically expreiT ed, by the illustrious patriot, President Wafh mgton, in his farewell address, whose words I take the freedom to tranferibe, as being for \cibly applicable to the present. occasion. ... “ *3 al * ,?ir dispositions and habits which lead to political profpeniy, religion and mo ] rallt y are tnd if pen fable fapports. In vain “ would that man claim the tribute of patriot “ ilm, who Ihould labour to-subvert these great pillars of human hzppinefs, these firmeft ‘‘ P ro P s °f the duties of men and eftizens. The mere politician, equally with the pious man, , t ought to refpeft and to cherish them. A [[ volume could not trace all their connexions “ w'tb private and public felicity. Let it fim .“ P ! y hr w here h the security for prop t; crt Y for reputation, for life, if the sense of religious obligation deferti he oaths which are ‘‘the inftiiMnents of invelligation in courts of ti juft'ce ? And let us with caution indulge'the “ fuppofitips, that morality can be maintained without religion. Whatever may be con “ ceded to the influence of refined education “ on minds of peculiar ftruclure, reason, and || experience, both forbid us to expett that na “ tional morality can prevail in exclusion of “ religious principle.” “ ’Tis fubllantially true, that virtue or mo (ality, is a tieceffary spring of popular go ‘ vernment. The rule indeed, extends with “ nl °rc or less force to every species of free || government. Who that is a linc.ere friend to it, can look with indifference upon at ‘‘ lrrri pts to shake the foundation ofthe fabric. Promote then as an obj"flof primary impor “ tance, inffitutions for the general diffufion of “ knowledge. In proportion as the ftrufture “ 3 z government gives force to public opin ion, it is essential, that this public, IKould be “ enlightem and ” These (entiments being bottomed on princi ples that will bear the tell of enquiry, cannot but delerve our moll serious attention. WE the Grand'Jurors for the Body ofthe County ot Effingham, have made enquiry into the situation of the Academy, and find that the want of a fufficient number of CommiiTioners, hath been, the cause that nothing has been dune in that very laudable inftimtion ; There were five gentlemen appointed, two of whom have resigned, the remaining three met once, but for the want of the papers did no business ; and through foine disappointment, have not since met. We therefore recommend, Joshua I.oopcr, and John London, Esquires, be appointed by our next I.cgiflature, to fill up such vacancy ; that business of such importance to the rising generation may not be impeded by the ficknels or absence of one man. We recommend to our next Legislature, a revifal and alteration of our present road aft, (or many take advantage of its not being cx prefliye, as to the fines imposed, whereby our roads in the lower part of t'ie county, are al most impassable. We lament the failure ofthe Treaty with the Creek Indians, on the part of this (late, and are lorry to have too much reason to attribute it, to the federal Commissioners and agent of Indian Affairs ; as by their conduit, the Com missioners on the part of the (late, had not that access to the Indians which their appointment entitled them to. We recommend to our next Legislature, to investigate the business, and grant redress as far as is-coniillrnt. with their federal relation. We take this as the earliest opportunity that has offered to congratulate our fellow citizens, for the annulling of that iniquitous Yazoo Law, winch at once (truck at our rights and liberties, which (had it not been annulled) would have brought our posterity into abjefl slavery, mak ing thousands tenants to the posterity and af figm ol a few crafty’ men, by which means elections w’ouid not be free, and our govern ment ultimately turned into arillocracy : We therefore fincerelv recommend our fellow citi zens to be careful in their next choice of repre sentatives, to avoid any, that have dipped their natids or money, in the Yazoo waters, forit-ia reasonable to believe” thpy will , deem .ha, money, a, ,hc VnrfofouLf* ’ W„ present john G.

Seymour, IT is very painful for a young man, as I am, to be dragged into the Newspaper, byjr quarrel of others, and if my reputation fvas not violently atiack ed, I Ihould not have troubled the pub lic with any obierrations in answer to Mr. William Smith, of Savine Grove. But when any man snail dare to fay, he can refute my oath, and thereby cor/ via me of perjury, silence would be a crime against myfelf, and altho’ Mr. Smith,> maybe of opinion, that I havs yet a reputation to ejlabt jh, yet I will convince him, and the world, that the reputation I have, is to me of jfoch value, thflt it (hall not be impeached, nor torn from mi, in luch a manner as attempted, nor impaired by luch means. Had Smith a charader of his own, hi would know the value of it, and dread the attack he has made on yonno man, against whom the underwritten believes the tongue of malice,, has not until now sported with.- Had Mr. Smith, any objections to my declarations of fatts, he has had an earlier and better opportunity than the prefent, l and before the dispute between him and Mr. Wayne, had proceeded to such lengths, to come forward—this will appear by the following letter, which I wrote him so long ago as the 15th June last. # Savannah, 15th June , 1796. Sir, AS I perceive by your very imper tinent letter to Mr. Wayne, under dare of the 12th inst. a very ungentcel attack against myfelf, your faying you ever sent a mefiage of the nature you men tion, to Mr. Wayne, byhis clerk, is falfe, as I was to the heft of my memo ry, theonc that handed you the accounts at the time you mention. You iikewife fay you wished the accounts to be exam ined (altho’ the account had been fettled years before, by a note of hand, signed by Mrs ; Smith, the Executrix.) —Yet to oblige yourfdf and Mr. Moore, Mr. Wayne inftruded me to go through the books with you and Mr. Moore, for your particular fatisfadion, which was accordingly done, and you both found every thing to your (atisfadion, and acknowledged the. fame in my presence. In the next place, you deny ever as suming the payment of the note, due to Mr. Wayne, for balance of account due him, by the estate of Paul Porcher. I fay, your now denying the alfomption of that debt, before me, in Mr. Wayne's Counting-]loufc, on the 22d day ot April 1791, is denyingwhat I will i wear ! that you have said, and thereforefaljs 1 Nay further, at the fame time and place, you positively and solemnly promised ‘Mr. Wayne, in my presence, to pay the snote yourfelf, if the elfatfe of Paul Por cher, was not fufficient todifeharge if- You likewise fay, you were not present at the time of the signing the note, which you muftbe convinced is falfe• No. 70.
