wlnmi intelligence, activity end not! were
well adopted to the ardunut dutie* of their
appointment Their eeaiduity, aided by
the variou* eentimenta which influenced
the prtioneri, produced a rapid dovulnpe-
ruent of tho plot. Several of the ennspi-
ramrs hid entered into tolemn pledget, to
pnrtake of a common dentiny, and one at
least »u* found, who, after hi* arreat, felt
nu repugnance to enforce the obligation
by »urrende>ing the name* of hi* eaao-
uuies. A spirit of retaliation and revenge
produced a timilar effect with other* who
mspected that they were the victim* of
treachery : and (hi* principle operated
with lull efl'ect, a* the hope or expectation
of pardon predominated. To the Inst
hourot tho existence of aeveral, who ap
peared to bo conspicuous aotora in thin
drama, they were preaaingly importuned
to make further conl'caaiuna.
Among the conspirator! tnost daring
end active, was Monday the slave of Mr-
'Ijell. lie cou'd road and write with fa-
niitv, and thus obtained an extraordinary
•ml dangerous influence over hit fellows.
Permitted by his master to occupy a house
in a central part of the city,hourly oppor
tuoitiea were sflbrdcd lor the exercise of
his skill, on those who were attracted to
Ms shop by business or favor. It waa there
that Ins artful and insiduoua delusions
were were kept in perpetual exercise. Ma
terials were abundantly furnished in tile
seditious pamphlets brought into this state
hy equally culpable incendiaries ; while
mo speeches ot the oppositionists in Con
gress to the admission of Missouri, gave a
•erious and imposing efl'ect In his miclii-
nations. This tnah wrote to Boyer, (by
his own confession) requesting hi* aid,
1 and addressed- the envelope of hi* letlor
to ajelaiive of the person who became the
bearer of it, a negro from one of the Nor
thern Stutet. He was the only person
proved to have kept a list of those enga
ged ; and the Court considered Ills cuutea-
oion full ami ample. From aucli means
and such auBrcc* of inforptatinn, it cannot
be doubted that all who were actually
concerned, have been brought to justice
There is nu exception within my know
ledge*, it has, however, been stated, dvit'
a plantation in St. John’s was infected,
but I do lint know on what authority.
This plain detail of the principal,jnci-
dciits in this transaction will satisfy you,
that the scheme lias not been general tier
alarmingly extensive. And it furnishes
a cause lur much satisfaction, that altlin’
religion,lupcralltion, fear,and almost eve
ry passion that sways tho human mind,
have been artfully used by the wicked in
stigators of this design, so few have been
seduced from a course of propriety and
obedience. Those who associated were
unprovided with the means uf attack or
resistance. No weapons (if wc except 13
hoop-pules) have been discovered ; nor
any testimony but of six pikos, that such
preparations were actually made. The
witnesses generally agree in one fact, that
the attempt was to lisve taken place on
Sunday night the lCth June, (littering a
little as in the precise time | 12 o’clock
appears to have been the hour.
From the various conflicting statements
made during the trials, it is difficult to
form a plausible conjecture of their ulti
mate plana of operation; no two agreeing
on general definite principles. That tho
first essay would he made with clubs a
gainst the Slate Arsenal is inferrible, from
their being unprovided with srms, and the
oo.icurrcnce of several witnesses. Uul
whether the attack would he made eimul-
ancoui-ly by various detachments, or
whether the whole, embodied at s partio-
*lar spot, would proceed tu the accom
plishments of their object, is very uncer
tain. Upon tho whole it is manifest, that
if any flan ban been organized, it waa
never communicated by tho principal con
spirator, tu tho leaders ur the men, as they
were wholly ignorant even of the places
of reltdi’zvious; although within 2 dltya
(of tho time appointed, and but one man
Jarrested prior to the day fixed on for
the attempt.
When wc contrnat the numbers engag
•d with the magnitude uf the enterprise,
the imputation ill egregious fully nr mad
ness is irresistible; and supposing the at
tempt to have been predicated on the
probability, that partial success would
augment their numbers, the utmost pre-
aumpiion would scarcely have hazarded
the result. Servility long continued de
bases the mind, and abstracts it from that
energy of character which is fitted to
great exploits. It cannot be supposed
therefore, without a violation of llie immu
table laws of nature, that a transition
from slavery and degradation, to authori
ty and power, could instantly occur.—
\ Great and general excitement may pro
duce exienseve and alarming effects f but
the various passions which operate with
powerful e£1Vct on this clasi of peraona,
impart a confident assurance of detection
and defeat to every similar design; While
the event is remote, they m.v listen with
credulity to the artful tale of the inatiga
tor, and concur in its plausibility ; hut
the approach nf danger will invariably
produce treachery, the concomitant ol
dastardly dispositions. In the fidelity
and attachment of a numeroua, claaa ot
these persons, we have other sources of
security and early information; fretn both
of which it is reasonable to conclude,
hat in proportion to the number engaged,
will be tlie certainty of detection; and
lhat an exteosive conspiracy caunot be
matured in thia State.
I have entered with much reluctance
on this detail, nor would it have Bfcen
considered requisite, but to contract the
number ofgrosl and idle reporta, actively
and extensively circulated, and producing
central anxiety and alarm. And, altho*
their author! may have no evil design,
ami may really ba under the deluiion, it
la easy to perroive what pernicious cense
queuecs may ensue from nut applying (he
proper corrective. Every individual in
the State is interested whether in relation
to Ilia own property, or tho reputatiun of
tho State, in giving no more importance
Jo the tnuancilnn than it justly merits.
Tho Legislature have wi*ely provided
meani of efficient protection. If the citi-
zena will faithfully perforin tho duty en
joined on them by the Petrol l<awa, I fear
nntbut that we shall continue in the en
joyment of as much tranquility and lately,
a* any State in the Union. ,.

Perhaps prudence, if consulted, would
give the same advico especially in these

some other good Genius, hail whispered

best to let nut- magnanimous governor go

It may be relied on aa coming from a
source that cannot be doubted.
Wliilo the reader ponders over it, let
him bear in mind the following facts, for
the correctneaa of which we hold ourselves
responsible.
1. That Colonel Hammond ia one of
the few revolutionary patriots*who slid

very iiillrin, and ia dependent, in a .good
degree, upun his office fur the support of
his family.
2. That he has been so unfortunate aa
to differ with the Governor both un nation
al and state politics.
3. That the Comptroller General, whose
office is acknowledged, un all hands, tn ho
the must important attached tu the Exe
cutive department, it the friend of Guv.
Clark.
4. That this office has been permitted
by the Governor tu have, in |the course of
the lust’ few months, as many as three
different persons tn at'cuii tn the duties of
hi* office, without the formality of a row
er olAtlorney, and mat even while the
Comptroller General was in town.
3. That even since the ejectment of
Col. Hammond, one of the Governor’*
Secretaries ho* acted for the Comptroller
General, without any other than mere tier
bat authority. .

Things went un smoothly, until the 12th
mf August, when the blanks that had been

Executive order dated 12th inst.
.. On the next morning, tlin Governor at
tended by imp of hie Secretaries, conduct
cd Mr, VV. imo the Secretary of State’s
office, informed the chief clerk that lie
had iipiminted Mr. W. Secretary in the
rhom of Colonel llamiuuiid, and request
ed the clerk to give up to Mr. Yv. the
bonks, records, Ike, of die office, together
with the key, stating that lie Imd no doubt
but that Mr. \V. wished to retain him as
a'.clerk j on which Mr. YV. said he should
like tu cqptiriue him. Tho clerk refused
to d« so,staling that,ho was placed there
by Colonel II. and aa his agent could
givo up the nffici- to no other person. The
Governor (hreatened.to have him arrested
tinder a warrant, if he ditl not give up tlie
'ho clerk still refused, and request
«t| Mr. YV. to wall in thupffioe until he
could go into town lur advice. Mr, YV.
acceded to the propusitiun. The clerk
then went out, leaving the office in tlie
charge of a subordinate clerk. On his re
turn, and after tho Governor had left the
office, he bunded to Mr. YV. the following
note
Mr. HViifoIrrr.—You willpleisoIntake
notice thai I am hound not to consider
any other persnu authorised to act in this
office as Secretary nf State, except myself,
during the absence of Colonel Hammond,
and as such I shall continue to act.
(Signed) Tun's. Hi Crawford.

Aflcr some time, the Governor came to
the ullic^again, and told the clerk that
if he did> not giv« up the key, he would
have him thrown out of the hansel The
clerk refined—lie visa repeatedly threat
enctl with a warrant, and as often refuted
to give up the office. A justice of the
peace waa applied to fur a warrant' which
waa refused.
A carpenter Waa then aent fur tn take
off the lock, and put on a new one. He
came,‘and the chief clerk ordered him not
to touch the lock, He retired—Again he
was called and ordered to proceed. The
clerk repeated hia order not to touch the
lock, Mr. Whitaker then went to the
Executive office, end Mr. Burch, one of
tho Governur’e Socreterict, with Mr. YV.
and the carpenter,returned to the Secre
tary of State’* Office. They entered, end
a halllo commenced. Some persona who
were in tliepassage, ran in and parted the
combatsntir Mr. B. end Mr. YV. were
engaged with the chief clerk. There is
no injury sustained by any one, except
Mr. B. from whom a tittle blood was
drawn. The Governor ctmo in imme
diately, in * paasiun—ordered the carpen
ter to pall off the lock, end put on too
ther—asierting that he had the control
there and wui responsible for the conse
quence*. The oarpentor obeyed. So the
uffice mas forcibly occupied by the estail
ants.
It is proper to remark, (list no icritlsn
authority was exhibited to the chief clerk
hy Mr. YVhiukei, for his proceedings,
until after every effort to intimidate had
been exheueted. It was then, for the first
time, that the derk sew * cupy of the

Further the affirmant sayeth not—but
we have to add that Colonel Hammond
returned on thf 17th inst. On Monday
tho 19th he went to his office, foond Mr.
W. in possession, and demanded, that it
should be given up to him. Mr. W. re
fused to comply. Coi. H. then went to
the Executive Office and made the same
demand—the Executive also refused to
comply. Harsh words ensued, and bare
the matter rests for the present
Here it must be observed that Colonel
Hsmmond had been lent for, after the
seizure of his office but that he arrived at
