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 SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1810. 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 the honor of mv to:., t v rtruiie; whar will conduc • l: the interelt <>t my constituents ? Thtfe are his la ‘.d marks, the p. i.,r liar that {hap s his course Then freemen of Georgia, will you forg t such a man as t!;i-. •? Will y exchange him ier ar.y sprightly vvig.U ?
