To the Editor of the Monitor. 1
Before I left Athens a report had
b f, en fpread that I would oppofe the
eleftion of Join, Forfy'h, Efq to a
fea r in the congrels of the United
States. This, like mod re forts, is not
founded on tru'h. My tirm adher
ence to republican principles is well
know, to a very ex'rofive acquaint
ance, in this and in many of the o-
ther (dates. If I did not believe
Mr Forfyih to be a republican and
a friend to the prefent and late ad-
tninirtration, I fhould b? fo far a
Brutus, as to withhold my fuflVage,
even were he more nearly connected
with me than he now is
If I.did not know him fob2 a gen
tleman of well-tried and fterling in
tegrity, courage an 4 honor, I would
not Vote for him. If I did not know
him to he a man of more than com
mon natural fn/iv/Lr, brightened and
rendered ufaful by a truly liberal ed
ucation...if I did not know him to
be a gentleman of polillvd m inuet s,
and of morals wholly f lire and in-

is particularly qualified to do honor
to this ftate, in tlie'illuflrnms a flam-

that he is particularly fitted to fofren
the acrimony of party foil it, which
all good men lament, 1 would not
vote for him. But knowing him to

give him that cordial fupport which I
