gufl hft.
Meffort. Day Sc llely,
I AM as anxious as any one
jhat proper and fuitabio perfons
fhould be elected as Members
ofCongrcfs. lunderfland there
are many candidates —but am
furprTfed to find particular no
tice is taken of only one.—
Mr. Early I think he 5s called
by a writer in the Augufta 11c
rald. The writer inllnuaces a
ftrong argument in favour of
this candidate,-i.% that he has
been perfectly detached from
aay party in this Hate. If we
are to underfeand from this, that
while the (late was convulfed
by the agitations of the yazoo
fpeculation, that Mr. Early was
fb extremely difiiuerefled as to
take nt> parr againfl it. I mufl
to fay no worfe, think he is quite
too phlegmatic, too in ft nibble
to the wrongs of his coun
try. While fome were for
Jcfl'erfon, and feme, were
for Pinckney, I etben lays
Mr. Early was for virtue and
talents, m <f whcnficevcr they
way be found" This language
is too indecifive for a flatefman ;
a Prefident was to be chofen,
and who was his choice ?—Was
the candidate whole name is not
mentioned, the perfon in whom
virtue arid talents were to he
found —fay, was it John Adams ?
If fo, I fhall not vote for Mr.
Early. If it fhould be afked,
who I think are proper perfons
to be eledled, I am free to an
fwer—and fhall be more liberal
than Philomathon , by naming
four gentlemen inflead of one,
but not precifely for the fame
reafons advanced in Mr. Early’s
behalf.—The Hon. John Mil
ledge, Gen. David Meriwether,
)( Col. Samuel Hammond, and <
Jofeph Bryan, Efquire, have,
and with ineffable pleafure we
announce it, contributed all
within their power to the pre
fervation of our territorial rights,
and confcqucntly to the deflruc-
Eon of Yazoo Speculation—
though Phlumdthcn no cUubt
aferibes their conduct therein,
to thehafoe Jcftary foeuds of fallien.
Moreover, all thofe gentlemen,
if we are rightly informed, think
.hat talents and virtue are to be
found in Thomas Jefferfon. —
In fhort, fellow citizens, you
may in their tlcblion honor
merit, promote the interefl of
your country, and continue to
re£c6l honor on yourfelves.

- Extract of a letter from commo
dore Morris, to the Jecretary
of the Navy , dated Gibraltar
Bay , June 26, 1802.
" Yeflerday Mr. Simpfcn,
Confui from the United States
of America to the Court cf
Morocco, arrived at Gibraltar,
from Tangier. The Emperor
of Morocco has forced him
from his dominions and declared
war againfl the United States.
1 his circunT.ar.cc I have made
Known to t.;C American rninf
ers at London, Paris and Ma
drid, in order that they might
acquaint • the Americans hound
to the Mediterranean therewith,
recommending that they fhould
rendezvous at C adiz, where
they Hioll Id receive as frequent
convoy rs our fquadron could
a Ton. 1. Should you make the
above known to the merchants
in America, cl.reeling tliem to
repair to Cadiz, before they
enter the Strait’s mouth, I will
call frequently and lake them
under convoy.
On Saturday loft the Ncwv-
Vork was put in commiflion,
and it is expelled that in the
couric of two we ( ks Horn that
day liic will be fully (quipped
tor lea. When (lie joins the
M C'htcrranean fquadron, Com
modore Morris will have under
his command the Cheiapeakc,
the Conllclirtion, the Adams,
the Kofdon, the New-York and
the Kmerprife. Theft*, with
the fquadron under the com
mand of the Swcdifh Admiral,
will, it is conceived, be fuffi
cieht to protect our commerce
againfl 1 ripoli and Morocco.
