Sir, The indecent and impertinent attack, that you have of late made upon the Executive of this Hate, has juft come to my view, wherein you have charged him in direft terms, of being the author of the Up Countryman. Refpcft for the charaftcr you have abided, and a dcflre to convince you of your error, compels me to declare, that the Governor never wrote a word in either of the pieces under that fignature, nor do I believe, he ever faw them, till they appeared in print. 1 he Up Countryman as he ftiles himfelf, is as diftant from Louifvillc as he is from Augufta ; and although his ac quaintance with you is merely theoretical, yet lie trufts, and hopes, before many more years revolve, that you and himfelf will have a practical knowledge 1 o of each other, and when tliis takes place, he promifes you, as General Lee did Mils Franks— <c that he will not turn his back upon you.” You have labored, and with apparent ingenuity, to deny in toto the two firft charges that I exhibited againft you, viz. that you originally was oppofed to the fale of the Weftern Ter ritory ; and fecondiy, that you exprefled a wifh that the nulli fying aft might pals. If it were poflible that thefc charges were aftionablc, 2nd could be tried in a court of judicature, 1 could convift you with certainty, and that upon the teftimony of two difinterefted men, that never had, nor never will have the value of one Bulling in that fpe culation ; and are as noted for their veracity, as you are for your llanderous publications. — Having gone thus far, an.l fub ftantiated what I in the firft in ftance advanced, I fhall here leave you, but will take you upon another ground, where with all your effrontery, you will not have it as much in your power to evade condemnation. The prcfidcntial cleftion which is now upon the anvil, appears to command the attention of die public in general, and you in particular, and here, if I may be allowed the exprefhen, you have afperfecT the #harafler of the Vice IVfi.ient; an 1 diCo vered your ft If to be a partial exparte writer. To enhance the reputation of Mr. Adams, and dimini Hi that of Mr. lefferfon, you have refortcd to means to eftablifh your points, that would be dallardly in a foldier, and in a politician illiberal and uncan did. Not content with what> public clamour has improperly attempted to imprds the com munity with, we lee you filching from his inaugural fpeech deli vered to the fenate, expreffions that were complimentory and honorable to Mr. Adams, and which every good citizen ought to efteern, and for thefe very expreffions you have condemned him, and applied them to the caule of Mr. Adams, inferring from that, he is the mo ft dat able pciion for prdident. T'his in common terms is wounding a man with Ids own weapon, “ or robbing Peter to pay Paul.” If you had placed thefe two great men properly before the people of the United States, and commented impartially upon their talents and virtues, the ad would be laudable, and entitled to merit; but inftead of this, we find you unfolicited, imper tinently intruding your opinion to one hundred and thirty eight independent eledors j declaring that a change in the Executive at this cribs will be hazardous and impolitic. The rcafons you aflign againft Mr. Jefferfon, are as feeble as yourfelf. One of which is, that he is a deift ; this to my knowledge is palpably falfe. Anotlicr not Ids (utile, is that of his being too much attached to French principles, and if Prdident, his objed would be, to deftroy ourprefent excellent conftitution, and build up another after the model of the French. To obviate fuch ridiculous aiTertlons, let us for a moment view him in the capa city of fecretary of ftatej and we fliall there find much'to his credit and honor, that our rights t 7 o as an independent nation, were after ted with ftrmncfs and ability, and with fuccefs too, againft: the able ft foreign m Snifters that has ever appeared in this country. If Mr. Jefferfon had been this Frenchman, which his enemies, and the enemies of the country c dared him to be, this was the time for it to have been (hewn, but inftead of this, after having ad j lifted the exifting differences with the contending envoys f rom European courts, with much reputation to himfelf, and falu tary advantages to his country , we find, on his retireing from the arduous duties of his office to private life, he received the thanks of PrefidentWafhington; the higheft compenfation that could be annexed to an Ameri can character. Another objec tion exhibited, and no doubt fandfioned by you and others, is that of his having dined at Frederic kfburgh on a Sunday, upon his return home from Congrefs. This is a heavy charge indeed , and ought to be fti icily ferutinized. But, before I pro ceed further, is there any great er impropriety in Mr. Jefferfon having dined with his country men; than there is in your dining with Scotchman almoft i-vtre Sunday, where in ali probabnio your majefiy’s hfal'h is often r drank in <i glafs ci humble pen: than our prefident ? I have no doubt from the decided part you have taken in Bntifh meafures, tiiat when the king’s health is drank, you imack your lips, os a proof rliat die toail gives ad* ditional flavor to the juice. It is wliilpered, but not yet con firmed, that you bore m the late war a commiftion in the Britilb Weft-Indies under George the third ! In the event of this prov ing true, the federal mantle of deception that you have long worn will be thrown oft', and you will then appear in your genuine colours. ‘ More on this lubjed will be laid in another communication. lam dear fir, your obedient lervant, An Lp Count/y matt .
