It is with pleafure we lay before our readers the following communira tion from Mr Meigs, to the Edi tor of the “ Wafhington Moni tor”. ..b -cauf" we are glad to find 'that filch refneclable talent as Mr Fnfv'h is known to p IT ft, will, (>f eWVb) he exerted for the bell in terrain of America... and from 'he acknowledged patriot ifiii of Mr. I dgi, we are difpofed to think that Mr, Forfyth is now a Rr.puot.ican whatever may have been his former errors. That his converfion to correft princi ples may he as lading as h:s name, is our fincere wifh la making this confefiton of appro bation of Mr. Forfyih, we wifh not to be underttood, as giving him a preference...on the con trary, Bolling Hall ever has, and does l>.iil, in our eftimation, de- ferve the- decided fupport of the Republicans of Georgia, as one of the new candidates 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- eorr{ipr...if f did not pelieve that he is particularly qualified to do honor to this ftate, in tlie'illuflrnms a flam- bly for which he is a candidate ; and 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 be fuch ns above deferibod, 1 will give him that cordial fupport which I woi^jld give to any other gentleman juftly entitled to fitch a charv>fter. J. MEIGS.

The perfonnl knowledge I have of Jons Elliott, Efq of Liberty couf*ty,(one of the prefent candidates for Congrefs at our enfuitig eleftion) Induces me, to introduce him to my fellow-citizens, as a man of talents »nd integrity.
