sever friendship; what occurred during
its existence should be sacred. How
much strouger the rule holds when one
party dies. Mr. Randolph has been dead
more than ten years, and it is eighteen
since he fought Mr. Clay. At this late
date, Gen. Hamilton, of South Carolina,
forgetting all the obligations of friend
ship, in a political letter, travels out of
his path to detail “some circumstances
connected with the duel between Mr.Ran
dolph and Mr. Clay, which, as they are
honorable both to the living end the
dead, I hope I may be pardoned for re
lating.”
1 cannot but believe that every honor
able man who has read that account, has
done so with astonishment at the outrage
committed by a second, attempting to use
his confidential possition to advance the
interest of his friend’s antagonist. Gen.
Hamilton stigmatizes Mr. Randolph’s in
sult as “flagrant;” where is the honor to
Mr. Randolph in that epithetj? Again,
“he would not advise Mr. Randolph (not
to shoot at Mr. Clay) but under the en
ormous and unprovoked pesotial insult
you have offered Mr. Clay, I cannot dis
suade.” What is honorable to Mr. Ran
dolph in that sentence coming from Mr.
Randolph’s second, “whose posthumous
friendship was bequeathed by their moth
ers.”
Gen. Hamilton states, that Mr. Ran
dolph informed him that he would not
shoot at Mr. Clay. Why did not Gen.
Hamilton state all the circumstances
which might and didalterMr. Randolph’s
determination? Why did Gen. Hamil
ton leave the impression that there was
but one fire, and that Mr. Randolph did
not fire at Mr. Clay ? Why did not
Gen. Hamilton state that Mr. Clay’s sec
ond, Gen. Jesup, addressed a letter to
Col. Tattnall, requestingthe word “four”
to be added betore “s/op” and after
“three," and Col. Tattnall’s indisposition
to do so if the proposition was intended
to be unofficial, and his consent if it was
official. And why did Mr. Clay wish
the word “four" added ? It was to kill,
(he was aslow shot, Mr. Randolph quick)
and Mr. Randolph in consequence shot
at his “black leg” and hit a sapling the
other side of it. At the second fire, Mr.
Randolph shot in the air, and Mr. Clay
hit Mr. Randolph’s red flannel jacket,
and 1 have seen “the rent the envious
Casca made.”
The following original documents
(I hold all) will prove all that is essential.
As tothe factof Mr.Randolph’sshooting at
Mr. Clay—l will leave that to Mr. Clay
I will say that he hits had time enough
to correct a misstatement made in his fa
vor, against a man who gave him his
life. The Cilly affair, however, has
proved that silence is his policy in such
matters.
I have but to add, that I take it for
granted that all honorab'e Editors who
have published Gen. Hamilton’s letter,
will vindicate the dead.
Most truly,
THOS. F. BRYAN.
The want of space precludes the
correspondence between Col. Tattnall
and Gen. Jesup.
Public Meeting in Crawford
County.
Atari adjourned meeting of a portion
of the Democratic Party of Crawford
county, held in Knoxville on Saturday,
the 30th March, 1814 : the Committee
appointed to draft a preamble and resolu
tions at a previous meeting, consisting of
Geo. R. Hunter, G. J. Green and J. Ray,
Esqs. reported the following, which were
unanimously adopted.
The course pursued by the Whig
Party in the Presidential election of 1840
—in their disingenuous and unmanly
attempts to mislead the public mind, as
to the principles and purposes of the
Whig candidate; and more recently, the
attempt now making by means of the
organization ofClay Clubs—the delivery
of inflammatory electioneering harangues
and the circulation throughout the coun
try of political tracts, to elevate to the
chief Magistracy of the Union, an indi
vidual who has shown himself always
the inveterate and sometimes the succes
ful enemy of Southern interests and prin
ciples, and of Georgia in particular, ad
monish us, of the necessity of an early
and efficient organization of the Demo
cratic Party. In the opinion of your
committee, this can be effectually done
only by the formation of Democratic As
sociations—having for their immediate
object the frequent and friendly inter
change of feeling and sentiment. The
circulation during the approaching can
vass of such political intelligence, as will
serve to exhibit most clearly the claims
and qualifications of the Democratic can
didates for President and Vice President
of the U. States, and at the same time
vindicate the character and principles of
the Democratic Party. To this end, the
Democratic party of Crawford county,
are respectfully, and earnestly requested,
so soon as the nomination of its candidates
for President and Vice President is made
by the Baltimore Convention, to hold a
general meeting, and form itself into a
Democratic Association, for the purposes
already mentioned. In the meantime the
political opponents of Henry Clay, resid
ing in Knoxville and its vicinity, for the
purpose of at once repelling the assaults,
which are now being made on the Re
publican party, and of promoting an ear
ly and efficient organization of that par
ty in this county, deem it advisiable to
recommend the appointment of a Com
mittee to consist of at least, nine persons,
to be called the democratic central
COMMITTEE OP CRAWFORD COUNTY. —
In furtherance of these views, your com
mittee herewith submit the follbwing re
solutions :
Resolved, That the Chairman of this
meeting, do forthwith appoint a commit
tee to consist of not less than nine per
sons, to be known as the “ Democratic
Central Committee of Crawford county,”
and that said committe shall have power
to choose its own Chairman and Secreta
ry, and the Chairman and Secretary thus
chosen, shall constitute a committee of
correspondence, and the Chairman shall
be further authorized to call a meeting
of the Democratic Party here, whenever
in his opinion, the interest of the Party
may require it, and that when this meet
ing adjourns, it adjourn subject to the call
of said Chairman.
The Chairman then appointed the fol
lowing gentlemen, the committee of nine,
to which, on motion, the name of the
Chairman was added viz: G. R. Hunter,
G. J. Green, T. C. Howard, J. J. Ray,
R. Hicks, J. Beeland, J. Davis, D. Cau
sey and W. 11. Broods, Esqrs. The
Committee appointed Gen. R. Hunter,
Esq. their chairman, and J. J. Ray Se
cretary.
Resolved, That the Democratic Party
of this county, be and they are hereby
requested, to hold a general meeting im
mediately after the adjournment of the
Democratic National Convention, to be
held in Baltimore in May next, and that
our friends in the different districts in
the county, be requested to take such
steps as will best serve to unite the par
ty, in support of the nominee of the Con
vention.
Resolved, That we have unshaken
confidence in the integrity of our princi
ples, and the success of our cause; and
we cannot refrain from the Expression
of the hope that Georgia will not tarnish
her hitherto unsullied honor, by casting
her vote for President, for her ancient en
emy, Henry Clay.
Resolved, Thatthe proceedings of this
meeting be signed by the Chairman and
Secretary, and published in the Demo
cratic papers of the city of Macon.
J. C. HARVEY, Chair.
J. Davis, Secretary.

Mr. Editor:
Presuming you exchange with your
neighbor the “ Little Georgian” of For
syth, I ask your attention to an article in
the last number of that paper, which in
my humble judgment is a perfect phe
nomenon of ingenuity. The article I al
lude to is a certain preamble, connected
with the formation of a Clay club, for
the purpose of advancing that matchless
man’s claims to the presidency and sprea
ding his doctrines far and wide. It is
not surprising the committee should be
ardent in Mr. Clay’s behalf, as his opin
ions on all subjects, moral, physical, and
political; particularly on all the causes
that have reduced this country to its pre
sent melancholy ar.d disastrous condition
and also respecting the only means to re
store its prosperity, fortunately for him,
perfectly agree with theirs.
You will perceive, sir, the preamble
ably drawn up and display a wonderful
ly correct acquaintance with the history
of this country. The opinions of all its
great public characters, as Washington,
Jefferson, Madison, Jackson and the
greatest of them all Henry Clay: the
committee have arrayed every mother’s
son of them on the side of the Clay club
of Forsyth, and seem to have a much
better idea of Washington’s, Jefferson’s,
dec’s, opinions than those great men had
themselves. You will gratify many of
your subscribers by looking over the doc
ument and telling us what you think of
it. Your friend,
M.
We have already enjoyed the edifica
tion afforded by the preamble, and entire
ly concur in the applause bestowed by
M. on the ability of those who drafted it,
and their intimate acquaintance with the
opinions of our great statesmen.
We admire the document exceedingly
and think it labeled, “the sub
stance of Henry Clay’s travelling speech
es, in a nut shell, or the whole mystery
of Clay Whiggery, rendered plain to the
humblest capacity” —but is not the
preamble dec too ironical to be genuine ?
It looks rather a quiz, an impudent hoax,
palmed on the unsuspecting no-party-in
nocents, by some fun-loving democrats,
who assumed the disguise of daymen,
for the purpose.
The Rev. Sydney Smith can make a
good pun or witicism even if he cannot
make anything out of Pennsylvania
stocks. On bishop Selwyn leaving En
gland for his diocese of cannibals, Tn N.
Zealand, Sydney took leave of him with
tears in his eyes' and in these terms:—
“ Good by, Selwyn; 1 hope you will not
disagreew th the man that eats you"
When the Ojibbewqy Indians paid a
visit to Queen Victoria, the principal
chief after the ceremony of presentation,
made a speech, of which the following
significant paragraph is an extract:
Mother—We have seen many strange
things since we came to this country.
We see that your wig-wams, are large,
and the light that comes in them is bright;
our wigwams are small, and our light is
not strong. We are not rich, but we
have plenty to eat.
