application for jouraervictaf If Mr. 8tilea li.
nude the first application to you, you would have
dura it proper to decline the “ flattering request. 1
We aay this, dirested^kf all uncharitable feeling,
because any man ot J Kbcpherton Berrien's amSi
tion, and perfect willingness to be placed above
the Iliads of Tox, Dick, and Haaai, would on
no occasion—(unless self interest presented an
insurmountable obstacle) decline “ the flattering
request.” Mr. Berrien ought therefore, to have
mentioned one or two, at least of the circumstan
cej which renders it proper (was it not prudent!;
lodecline. Until this information ia furnished,
we must cherish the obstinacy of the belief; that
he could not have been elected. Our main res
son for this impression it, that the invitation to
offer must have come from respectable federal
citizens of the county, who were not strong e
nuugh to carry him through—for advening to the
period ot two yean and more past,-we cannot bring
t. our remembra'ice any two or more distinguish,

atered with manly and virtuous firmness to can-
udatea, not only professing but manifesting by
•eta an entire devotion to their own principles.
At a renewal the last year, John Uacpheraon
Berrien acceded to the request, ,nd he would
have done ao before, in all human probability it
tile invitation bad flown from a simitar union of
'• choice tpi itt." He had never filled a legiala

and an advocate—he had reputation for eloquence
—waa greatly admired by his party, and was

yond its pale. Under all these consideration!,
lie feefinga Is magnanimity of the democrat were
vehemently worked upon; and these good na-
•ured and forgiving souls consented to let the
gentleman take a “ chance." No motive existed
or opposition, but if it had shewn its front and
thrown the gauntlet, backed by the seal ofde-
nocracy and “ old remembrances"—could Major
'lerrien have been elected ? Let candour answer
this question. We aay no, and we say ao, not
because whatever tome live or six in the demo
cratic ranks, (and we do not omit the citixcn
who has been spoken of* aa ao opponent
and generously declined) who had at least
fifty timet the claims of Major Berrien upon the
confidence and support of the elector*; Sheer
liberality then, on the part of the democratic ci
tizens of Chatham (a liberality, by the by, which
we never knew evinced by the fed ralialt of this
county) and a well grounded impression, that
he would advocate certain measures (which
we shall leave at undefined as his “eireum-
stances”) paralized all opposition. To these
causes Mr. Berrien owes his success and to
no other*. He unquestionably belongs net to
the Democratic cat*, and must we hold its
principles in contempt I Nature, education, man
ners principles«f contrary tendency, imbibed in
early Youth and occasionally demonstrated in all
theboldnea* and fervor of conviction, render it
utterly impossiblrathal Major Rerriencan ever at
tach himself to Democratic men or their frith —
He cannot mingle wiib the million—he cannot
partake of their simplified feelings. In all ihishe
is not to be censured. He ‘labours in hit voca
tion," anfisets consistently. ^be<reference to
Washington's farewell address S Containing the
articles of hia frith, does not repel the imputation
ofFedertliim. This is a document to which every
Federaliit refer* as a kind of gospel of hit faith.—
The name of Washington ia eternally referred to
by every man of the party Uiaa convenient
agis tn cover the unprincipled ambition of tome,
and the hypocrity of other*. We do not attribute
to Major Berrien any Inch intention. He it more
to be respected for his consistent (with this ad.
of the God-liko man, aa hia apology, for It)
than the taecillating interested conduct of tome
others who once aa ardent Federalists u himself,
suddenly turned their coats and shot ahead of
the beit Democrat* among us. These unexpeet
ed apostacies with aggrandisement at the reward
are ausceptible of a construction not very favorable
to the aincerity of tbe professed conviction. We
do not believe that Major Berrien would openly
renounce bis federal principles to be even Minis
ter Plenipotentiary.—He might conceal them un.
der tome general declaration which would sound
very patriotic in the mouth of Fedenlirt or Demo
crat, but put him to the trial in detail, and then
the touch of pure, unadulterated Federalism like
IihuriePa -pear would wxhibit him in bis genuine
and acknowledged character. This being hit
creed, cm it for a moment be supposed, that at
the bat election he was supported by Democrats
for Mi own take amI for hit own principled—

The committee of nine being prepared
to report, the town meeting waa re-conven
ed on June 3d and the resolutions ot the
committee submitted to its consideration.
1st resolution.—“That the nation has a-
hundant cause of war against both bellige
rents, but it is demanded against Great Bri
tain by the present crisis, to the end that
our right* as a nat.on may be preserved, in-,
-i date and transmitted unimpaired to pos
terity."
2d resolution*—"That the vittuous and
pacific conduct of the general administra
tion having led to further and additional acts
of outrage and perfidy, for bear mice of l r n
ger continuance, would prostrate the digni
ty of the government, and render contemp
tible this, the only free nation on earth.”
3d rcsoluiion-—"That it is the opinion
of this meeting, it would be wise and pru
dent in the general government of the Uni
ted States, front tire present disorganized
state oi East Florida, to hold possesaion of
that province.”
These are not the resolutions at length,
but the extracts are sufficiently copious for
the present occasion. Betorc their report,
it was generally understood, that the com
mittee were unanimous as to the first and
second resolutions, leaving the third, on the
subject of the occupancy of East Florida o-

part of the rep-rt, reserving to himself any

With this understanding, the repott was

“set form of speech” vehemently declared
against any warlike measures, until “some
twenty or thirty light frigates shall have
been built”—and other preparatnty mea
sures as impracticable then as they were
dilatory, and defeating all the object! of the
reported warlike resolutions.
These measures were introduced by Mr.
Beftien as substitutes for the reported re
solutions, and supported by the late John
Y. Noel, also one ol the coijttniUee, but
who had previously agreed to the report of
the committee and oppi^ed by other mem
bers of the Committee, particulatly Guo.
Jonks, (than whom and his family, Georgia
cannot boas^of more distinguished patriots
during the revolution and since) who pro
nounced Mr. Berrien out of order, and “at
variance what had been previously assented
toby every member of the committee.” We
well recollect the speeches then made, and
the above extract ia taken from a commu
nication, in the Savannah Republican ofthe
9th of Juno 1813, to which we refer every
person lor a co/rect and faithful detail of
tbe occurrences ol the meeting.
It is true Mr Berrien’s substituted reao
lultons were at tail seconded by Col. Hab
ersham (whose character and revolutionary
terviaet he hat not exiggerated;) we say at
last s Abraham Richard! or federal mem
ory, did second tbe Berrien rctolutioni, but
wanting respectability, hia voice was ne-
moderating it. He must have recollected
the chastisement inflicted on the angio fed
eral printer whose lies and blackguardism,
in relation to the meeting,set at defiance ell
control over the popular vengeance. If
with these statements fresh in the memo
ries of many who attended the meeting, end
confirmed by references to the journals of
the day, John Macpherson Berrien did not
oppose the war, then noiuat conclusion can
be di awn from facta, aua that whatever may
be their clearness and cogency according
to Mr. Berrien’s logic, abroad denial is a
sufficient refutation.
Mr Berrien begins the Cavalry charge
“at speed” and leaves it with equal rapidi
ty, to incounter another.
We shall loll.iw his example and briefly
say, that he has left it as hg found it unre-
pulled and in primitive vigour. We are
the more willing to spare him on this sub-
juect as a laudable soldier vanity, may have
had a stronger hand in the Legislation, than
any improper motive.
The charge against Mr. Berrien ofbeing
of Counsel fthe Bank of the United States,
In suits against the State Banks, it of a
graver character. The apology he offers,
cannot be satisfactory in the view of either
forensic, or legislative morality. He says
“the Bank of the United Slates have a claim
on my professional service before the tourt,
and to the best of my abilities it shall be
faithfully answered. On the floor of the
Legislature they have none. They arc
honest men, and they urge none-’’ Thu
personal integrity or WB Berrien we leave
unimpeached, and wish him success in
gathering all the fees his industry and pro
lessional popularity can in these cases, or
any other, enable him to acquire. We are
willing that he should gain all the edut
which Cicero lost in shrinking from the
dcft-nce of Milo—and y»t he should pur
sue the boldness and independency ol Er
skine and Curran, fired by the “patriotism"
of the onr and illuminated by the gri ious
and “unconscious matchless eloquence” of
Ihe oilier. But at the momrnt vie wish
this brilliant career to Mr. Berrien, we can
not persuade oursrlvcs that he can on the
“floor cf the {Legislature,” advocate with
the patriotism of an Erskine or the match
less eloquence of a Cun an, the identical
principles he had “before the court’ learn
edly and dispassionately proven unconstitu
tional and not law. The code of morals
from which Mr Berrien h ,s extracted the
maxims of his addres«, can never produce
friendship between such conflicting duties
of counsellor and legislator—No rasuis'rv
can reconcile them, and we believe the dis
linclion he has drawn originated more from
despair and a proud reluctance tn acknow.
ludge error, than a conviction of its truth ot
its propriety. No matter whether the sub
ject comes before the Lr0slalurc or not,
the objection is not varied, that a law-
ycr, when Senator, cannot take lees
which may impair a faithful and zeilous
discharge oMuty as Senator. \[Pederalittt
and pretended Republicans can say, under
these representations, that a lawyer with
fees in his pocket tooppnse the Slate B • k»
before the Court, can with perfect indilT.'r
ence to that compnpsati-n advocate theui
on the floor of the Legislature, and upset
all his eloquence and learning had done he

their door*” we Democrats wash our hands
of it. We think this rharge substantiated.
The next charge is impropriety of con
duct in having become the counsel of Mr.
Stiles. Oo this subject Mr. Berrien shews
at, anxiety to extricate himself with more
skill and care, than we can discover in his
other laboured attempts at refutation. The
amount of his defence against this offence
is this, that he is willing to promote Dry-
Culture by “all lawful means” provided
those lawful means do not interfere with his
client Mr. Stiles; and to shew hit sincerity
he was desirous of referring the controver
sy to arbitration which being rejected he isj j
now at liberty to cover the whole ground or i
his clients defence. Mr. Berrien discon
nected from the partnership, would perhaps
have done nothing wrong In taking a fee
from Mr. Stiles, because, as he is only here,
at seasons of the year when his health could
receive no injury from miasmata, dry or
wet Culture could have been to him of little
or no moment But gified with the talents,
his friends and the public have awarded to
him, and with ti fortune placing him above
the intricacies of an intrigue between Ms
professional cupidity and political ambi
tion, we unhesitatingly say, that this charge
is substantiated. Other lawyer* as able as
Mr. Bert ten might have taken his place
without injury to the intereata or defence or
Mr. Stiles, and Mr. Berrien would have
then ofleted himself os a candidate for the
votes of the electors he has addressed, with
City. Aa it is, can he truly represent the
wishes and intereata of Savannah, or can he
much care whether dty or wet Culture
prevails, he having done hia duty aa one of
counsel for Mr. Stiles? Although we do
not in the language of Mr. Berrien’s advo
cates assert that what we say no man daret
deny, and no man thall deny with imfiuni
ty, yet we do say, he who denies it utters a
faltehood. We then aay, that when tbe
Mayor applied to Metsrs. Davies & Ber
rien to aid the Recorder in the sujjs againat
Mr. Stiles, they had not been employed by
Mr. Stiles—that they refused to be em
played by the Corporation and were after
