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.
