WASHINGTON, (Georgia) Printbd weekly for SARAH HILLHOUSE.
For the Monitor.
At the approach of the con
grcflional election it Lnatuial that
the merits of the several candidates
Ihould be inveftigatcd ; and if this
right to weigh the claims of those
who fetk public favor was exer
cised with difcrction anJ decorum
great public good would result to
the community. It is not my bu
siness to oppose any man's eLction.
1 mean in this (hurt essay to notice
the past condutl of two of our re
presentatives, who are now candi
dates.
No one objects to the re-election
of D’ Ctor Bibb ; his talents, hia
political integrity, and his attention
to the duties of his station are lb
notorious, and lo well approved,
as ro enfuie hurt ihe hearty support
of those whom he serves so ably and
so vigikntly. But fo.T.e people op
pole the re-eleflion of Mr. Cobb,
and fume are indifferent about it ;
and what aie the reasons r.n which
this opposition is founded? You
who edict to believe he is incotn
pattit >n the score of talents, look
to his votes, and lay if any one < t
our representatives can boast of
more cor.iifiency and pr. p: i ry ?
Is this the relult of accident ? No,
it is the relult of a found, dilcreet,
( and dilpadiotmtc jui'-getr.cnt mat
’ has uniformly confuiccd the* dign:-
! tyand interest of fiis country, and
| has disdained to be ir.fluenced by
: any time serving policy. ‘ Fis true
Mr. Cobb is not in the h bit of
wafting time by long speeches; he
<is a silent membtr; and 1 wish Irom
j my heart, that nine out of ten, a
i mong those who are called fp ak
-1 ers in congress, were tongueless ;
in that case they would have Ids
occasion and Ids power to expose
and injure the once well delerved
name of the American Congress.
Follow citizens, remember that the
good ff-fferfon, the worthy old pat
riot, .Samuel Adams, and many o
thers high on the lift of great and
good statesmen, were not fpeakvrs.
they were not in the habit of duff
ing fine, and making a long fptech
to please the girls in the lobby or in
the gallery. They were in the
habit cf deliberating on the affairs
of the nation, with a Tingle eye to
j public good, and adting with oth
j er weapons ’han “ words, words,
•words,” where adlion was ncceffa
ry. And yet no man difputcd the
; talents of these men. It would be
well for our degenerate council if
we had in it a few more men like
i Mr. Cobb.
Another obje&ion to Mr. Cobb
| is that his bad health is such as to
* disqualify him for the duties of his
station, and that he is wholly una
ble to occupy his feat during a great
part of the feflion. I believe this
objection is founded on falsehood ;
fur I am well assured he enjoys
good health ; and if he does not,
he has given themoft decide! proof
of his fidelity and patriotism. If
he wanted an apology to
his p-.ft ‘■!* irulifpofition w >u!d
have beau lufScient j but lick as he

may have been, he was as often in
place, (not even Dr. BiUa except
ed, wfV'in I mention with plt-dlure
as a pattern of induftiy anu hJetity)
as arty member from the state of
Georgia. Look to ttie journals of
the houle of reprelcntatives and we
{hail there fee who has attended
and who has not.
That I might have it fully in my
power to give my fellow citizens
the truth of the cale, 1 have ex
amined all the yeas and nays of the
\ ay and the last winter leffi ms ;
which shew very latistadorily the
relpe&ive attention, industry, and
integrity of the members. Mr.
Cobb has nothing to fear from the
tell. The National Intelligencer,
during th >fe two ftffions reports
the yeas and nays forty seven times:
at which were present,
Mr. Bibb, 45,
Mr. Cobb, 45,
Mr. Stnelr, 86,
Mr. 1 roup, 28.
Does this look like 3 sick r^.?.n ,
Is it the evi ‘ence ot negligence, or
is ‘he tell proof that Mr. Cobb di.-
charges his duty like a r.iiibful ceii
tind i It such conduct is iio is not
to be rom.vnbered. ok! rewarded,
r.o mail can have inducement to
do his duty.
The cinzjia c: this state have
tft*‘ce elected Mr. C bb. Ar firll
he was untiied. I. he w.s theu
entitled to the fut!rages ot bis fel
low ci'ir. ms, he is no Ids entitled
now. It r was then qu uiried, he
is certainly better qualified now.
li he was then untried & unknown,
he is now tried and proven to be
of the purdt (tuft. H. ic none of
your Jack-call member* ; he is not
led by weaknels, finery, or vani
ty. He will not fell his vote to the
Smitha or any other aspiring ju.xt?.
who endeavor to diftraif the coun
cils of the nation. He is not Mr.
Giles’ republican, nor Mr. Ran
dolph’s, but he is a republican of
Georgia. And his vutei uniformly
prove him to be u:i ur.fophifticated
fiend fd republican principles, and
republican inftitutior.-;. When he
iscal'ed on to voteh.* does not all:
Mr. Smith or Mr. Ec.ce: :n* how
he fnall vote ; he asks what does

It was given out that preparations
should be made for quartering them

unexpected, a publication, by vir

the queen.
In the declaration refpefting it,
is the following:
