WE the grand jurors of thr county
of Columbia, on our oaths pre
lent at an evil of the molt alarming nature,
tt.c pia&hce of unrighteous speculation
Which has formed a party in this country
t whose interelt are repugnant to the inter
L est of the Bate, and whose « bj<£t apt ears
to be the fubveriion ot laws and order, to
|gj| ftcconoplith their finiitcr purposes.
"M*i We present the anomies ot this court
.who have daringly refilled the authority
. JlMf government, and attempted to impede
' 'roe o era tion of courts, and for fpreailing
u fenition and circulating falfrhuods, tend-
Ik inv to deceive the people.
We view the proceedings of that sac
tion as Bowing from the corrupt source
V of a wi< Iced combination, teprobated by
every virtuous citizen, and lament exceed
ingly the imhccility of feme of our neigh
hours and fellow citizens, who have un
' fortunately been n isled by the falfe inii
ruations of that detigning party, and in
duced to abandon the duties they owe to
society j whereby they have fubjefted
themselves to the censure of governmen’
and thar penalty, which the law and ju
Bice must ii.fl.ff j and it is with indigna
tion we have seen the influ- nee of that
faction rxtrnd to thegr?nd jury ot a neigh
< b' bring county.
We rejoice to And that arnidtt the rage
* ©f adifappoitued party, and spirit of sac
V tion, the executive ad ministration is
ftnarked with that tirranefs and prarriorifm,
which does honor to the governor, and
indicate* security of the rights of the peo
ple ; and we are happy to fee the enlight
ened grand juries of Chatham and Liberty
counties have exprefled their sentiments
on that fubjeft so congenial with our own.
implied byjuftice, we cannot forbear
ftlfo exprefling our entire approbation of
the Conduit of his honor the judge ; his
patience, firmnefs and patriorifm, jultly
entitles him to confidence and thanks of
the community.
