LOUISVILLE, TUESDAY , OEohir 18, 1800' VTilft the puppy B in the Aupufla Herald, charges the Republican Trumpet as a flan derous paper, and abulcs as liars thofe men whnfe merits and fetvices, in war and peace, were known to the people of Geor gia long before hr or his piece of pe*b 61ion Mr. Hobby, ever faw it, or perhaps were in exift tnre-l-be fbould take care how I e danders the conflitution of •hp countiy ; or tells lies, by handsful himfelf.

Governor Jack Ton was not th* mhor. f the ** Up Coun t.yvian ” —We fhould not how . ver gratify the young whelp, nd the Augufla mvrn idons, u eie it not t(> convince the world bow f r the malice of a propeily defeated L6lion can rairy them, ngaind the fupporters of honelt meafuies Ye had bcttei keep filence—the change is haid at band. v. ■ i A friend ot the Governor's, and [udge Mitchell's, believing that the former has neither Ici fure nor inclination to notice the ribaldry and abufe of a filly bt v. who writes in the Auguda Herald, and vindicates Mr. Hobby, in anfwer fo An vp country?nan t under the (ignature of B has requefted our infertion of a copy of the bill of excep tions, taken to the jurifdifiion of the [efFerfon inferior court, in the cafe of Jones, againfl his Excellency—on which he re marks, that the calumny of the charge contained in the note at the bottom of B’s addrefs on the 22d. inft. of the governor's evading the demands of his fel low citizens, will, on the flight eft examination, be fully expof ed, and judge Mitchell's deci fion be declared correfl. Had the governor, as the exceptions juftly declare acknowledged his pcnuanentrcfidencein leffcrfon* by anfwering to the fait, he cer tainly would have loft his claim of rcfidencc in Chatham ; and the picawa* filed at a time, when it was his full intention to retire from the government, and re. turn to Chatham; and when once the fuit was acknowledged, as he had paid no tax in Jeffer fon, he would, had he remained, been disfranchised there alfo, (o that from his ferving the public he would have loft his right of voting, or of being defied to thr legiflature for one, if not two leflions altogether—it was in fa£l a great public queftion, whether or not a prrfon defied governor, loft hisufual rdidence in the county he before belong ed to, by accepting the govern ment, the feat of which was fix ed by law in another county. — If judge Mitchell had decided othetwife than he did, it is not probable that many candidates would appear for the office, or accept it on fuch terms. As well might B. fay, that a judge fhould lofe his rdidence for holding courts in another coun j or the members of the legifla ; turc their’s for attendinga feifion in another county—the one is compelled to a local refidencein a different county as well as the ■ ther—And it is in the power of the legiflature next week to ob lige the governor to remove to ancork or Wilkes. If H's ignorance of theconftitution had not been immenfe, he would have found that the term nfual rrfihnu frequently occurs in n—the very expreflion the go vernor ufes ; and in the cafes of officers of the militia, it do- s cxpiefsly—were it otherwife, officers of militia defied to con giels would lole their commif (ions— comrrfflions of officers removing at the head of their troops to fuccour another divi fion, would become void as foon as they entered it; and if by foreign rnvasion, or domeftic infurrrflion the militia of one drflnfl were forced to another, the con n.iffions would ccafc to be of force, and the tioops be difbanded in the face of the enemy This principle was ef tabhfled prior lo the prefem conftitution, or governor )ack fen's appointment, in the cafe of general Irwin—it was moved in the legiflature todefl a bnga dier in his room, having accept ed the government, and remov ed from his brigade, but the modon failed, and the gene ral kc pi his commiflion. On B's plan, had the governor acknow legged the fuif, and thereby hj s residence, if a plan had fuccced cd the laft legiflaturc as intend ed. to throw Jefferfon into the fecond division, the governor would have loft; his tnajor-gcr ral's commiffion which he now holds Sofarwasjhe govemrr from evading any juft demand, that his counfel declared when the exceptions were argued ia open court, that if there was any juft demand againft the gover nor, if prefented, it Qiould in, ftantly be paid Not a citizen of jefferfon county, he is con vinced, can conic forward and affert, that for articles fold, or work done for him, the payment was not ready the moment it was demanded. It is clear then it was not for fear of meeting the demand but to try the quefhon, although it is probable that the governor had obje&ions to it and a man in public as in pri vate life has an cqu d right to judge of demands againlt him until decided in a proper court of juft ice. 1 homas Jones, r vs .
