TO AMPHION.
Most Musical Sir,
I have read the addrefs with which
you honored the friends ol Religion j
and Liberty, as they ornamented the j
columns of the lalt number of the ;
Georgia Journal* I am compelled j
to queltion the finceritv of the mo- :
fives which you are pleated to offer, ;
for the fpivit in which you have re- I
plied to the Editor ot the Argus, ;
Mr Analizer, and to your molt t.bc- j
dient very humble fervant. When ,
you have done away my lkepticifm,
and proved according to the logic of 1
common fenfe, that you arc what
you profefs to be —a friend to a
“ dignified invelligation of the con-
daft, and character of candidates for
office”—that it is not became you
are intcrelted—not becaufe you ate
afluated by any particular fuemifhip .
for Major Clarke ; hut that it is be-
caufe you are willing to devote your
life for the liberty of your country,
and with it the freedom of Elections,
and that which fweetens all their en
joyments...unfu Hied reputation.. I
fay fir, when you have provcdailthefe
tilings 1 Until he touched with your
generous patriotifm, and freely for
give the exc. fles into which it has
led you ; and far from relenting ihofe
,*'*rms of reproach and indignation,
which confidering you are defeended
from the Gods, and ar. advocate for a
“ dignified inveftigation,” you have
heaped rather too liberally upon Mr.
Ryan, and Mr. Analizer, as well as
upon your mod obedient, very hum
ble fervant—I will place them to the
account cf atr honeft unreflecting,
and pa riotie indignation, in which
your cooler jud. meat and godlike
politeneis had no concern—For real
ly Mr. Amphion, “ fiimplcton” as I
1 am, I can tl rough my dull compre-
licnfion, !i:id nothing inyottrlumin- ;
cits Eff.iy which ptt.ves your patriot- ,
ifm, bur your empty afl'ertior.—The
- balance of it is diredtly contradifitory
! to fitch an idea, and is remarkable
only for the frippery of fopltidry fc
j quibble with which it abounds—Like
I yourfeli lir, I want evidence—When
' you ad''it that you are a patriot, hut
write iik<- the tool cf a faction', niy
flccpticifm immediately Heps in, and
(“ impertinently”) challenges your
proofs—and until you biing them
forward, I Hull contend that you are
; not the patriot you pretend to l;e, I
but the tool ot a faction in difguife, ;
attempting (“ in thefe days of igno- j
l ranee and error”) to impofe yourfelf ,
1 cn the public tor a patriot—As you
| have been pleafed to combine Mr
j Ryan, Mr Analizer, and myfelf to-
1 gellier, I fhall reply to your profound
mattcrin that irtcguiarniantier which '
ntay be expcdlcd of a “ fimpleton”
and whenever your luminous mind j
finds this to be the cafe, you cation !
that account cxcule me, or not, as !
you phafe.
it feems then fir, that prefun ing
upon the “ ignorance and ertot” of
thefe clays you have not thought it
ncceffary to refute a fntgle polition
taken by Mr. Ryan againft Major
Clarke—but by bellowing out Viper,
Hypocrite, &c. againft him you ex
pect to draw the attention of y ar
readers from the charges againft the
Major—You have been cautious of
particulars, Sc where you mentioned
one,you remind me of the cunning of
the Scuttle fifh—yon firtl muddied
the water, £; then you run from it.*
* It is faid cf the the Scuttle Fiji),
that whin he fault his enemy likely t
prove too hard for him, he tjiEls hit fe
at, which muddies the water, and thi u
he .Rapes.
If hi Head of thefe unintelligible ;f
”*"ham.is againft Mr. Ryan about the
\ iper from Medufa’s head, vou had
called him a liar, a thief or 3 mur
derer, but confefl'ed that you bad not
a (ingle proof againft 1 im, your rea
ders won *1 have been better convin
ced than they now are—they would
have laughed at vour folly, but con-
confefled your candor—at prefen:
they can do nothing more than for ,t
moment admire the unintelligible
eflufions of your great la nice and
then their more deliberate judgment*
will condemn you, as weii for a fool
as for a want of candor. According
to your logic no man can be a Cln ; i-
ti .:t and a pa'r'.oc, if he is oppoleil
to Major Ciarke I'he moment ho
opens his mouth he becomes a Vi
per from Medufas head, and Hypo
crite. I dare fay that Mr. Ryan will
hardly allow you by fuppofed cafes,
and forced analogies to l'uppcfc him.
Jtrto filcucc.
To Mr “ Enquiry,” the epithet#
“fimpleton,” “and impertinent In
quiries” have been applied by you,
with that “dignified invelligation,’'’
which trunks the whole of your ei-
fayfi, or if you pleafe your Ivric po
em, fongor anthem, or any thing eife*
yen pleafe. l'helq arc both admi
rable proofs and arguments indeed
of Major Clark’s republicanifm, aral
are pe«feet!y coufiltcnt with the lo
gic by whiclt you would reafon tl.fr.
people out of their rcafotts, thete-
by veafon Major Clark into a feat iu
CongreCs Relying upon the “ igno
rance ar.d errot” (if thefe davs- and
which you apply fo patriotically to
the citizens of Georgia, your an-
Iwevs to “ Mr Enquiry” donotcon-
fift of reafons a*id arguments, hue
quibbles and hard names-
Perhaps, Mr. Amphion, I am.
much in your dtbt for the legal light
which you have thrown upon th-
cafe of a candidate for public patron
age, for I will candidly confefs, thr;
until your great learning burSl forth
like a volume of wifrlom to enlight
en “ thefe days of ignorance anct
error,” I had to learn that a mart who
become a candidate for public favor
neceffarily become a culprit—to 'bo*
arraingned at tlte bar of judice as one?
fhould be, who had burnt n houieor
ftolcn a horfe. Simpleton like, my
ideas did not elongate themfelves far
ther tlinn to compare the cafe of a
candidate for Cottgrefs, who thereby
fet up his claim to public confidence,
to one who fee up a claim again It a -
nother for debt. I hacl always,
thought that if A fet up a claim a-
gainlt B for debt, -and 1J put in hi#
plea that i: is nut a fa£t, and thereby*
denies the claim, it becomes tlte du
ty of A to prove the claim before a.
jury will order it to be paid. So I
thought of Major Clarke—Ills frit ml
held hint forth for Cottgrefs a - h man.
of m tit, and 1 had the “ Impertin
ence” to queltion tlte pretention.",, &
challenge his friend to an enumera
tion of his merits. The quclliou its
now before the public—whether
your dignified felf are the quibbler,
or myfelf the fimpleton—to their
candor 1 appeal.
With your wonted dtgni y and
learning you fay Mr. Enquirer wrote
Terminus in anl'wer to his own im
pertinent inquiries. And you ltavt*
proved it too—hut when I tell yon
that after all your grea*- learning and
dilcernment—after tiaemgour “vef*
tiges” through our finucus latebta*,
you have traced out and infinuated
an error where will you trace out
your next proof. While on this head,
permit me to difpofe of the cafe of
Mr Analizer alfo—1 wrote neither
of them, but you fay I did, and : c-
cordidg to your logic it is proof tint
I did fo, “ he that doubts, let him
doubt and be damned,”
But Amphion the fonof Jupiter,
burns with indignation, and forger-
ltd that he is defemded f; on) the
Gods, lie raves and fcams at the
mouth like the matiLc of a f.udion,
becaufe Analizer infers that Major
C arke is dilowin d 1-v the republu an
advocates of Jell'etfin.’; N Madifim’s
autr.nnHiiuioUB. He difproves a
