*g 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. [communicated.] 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.
