TO THF, PI BIIC.
Dr. Bartlett has responded to my call for
the name of the author of the letter, publish
ed in the Macon Telegraph of the 11th inst.
and referred to in my Card of last week. 1
ain authorized upon his authority, to state,
that Dr. Columbus Mills of this place— the
brother in law of Maj. Camp, is the author
of that letter; —1 will make no commentary
upon this unexpected, and unpleasant dis
closure ! let the relation which he bore to
MajorCamp.be remembered, and this will
also he sufficient, to enable the public to
pronounce properly upon it; f will pen no
strictures—utter no abuse—my purpose is
self defence and I will confute myself strict
ly to it; from this abusive language used by
Dr. Mills in his letter, the public would jus
tify me in using him with severity, but 1 will
make him blush icith facts —they are more
eloquent and convincing than words, and
who would not forbear, when he had an adver
sary hound with cords? I am forced un
pleasantly into the news papers, to defend
my self against a grave charge, to say noth
ing of abuse, emlvctj is. and which
was intended to be severe ; but the public
will recollect how easy it is to publish such
language when Editors can be had; they will
also recollect that an issue tried upon it by the
community of which, Dr. Mills and myself
arc members, might be determined very un
favorably to Dr. Mills—and I cannot hut here
observe, that if Dr. Bartlett is a gentleman, he
will regret in moments of reflection, that he
lias made his paper the instrument ot dissem
inating, a false and slanderous libel. I was
engaged professionally by Col. Milton in his
■defence; and the head and front of my of
lending was Zealand integrity in his cause.
T’or this I ant libelled in a public Journal ; 1
had hoped this unpleasant occurrence would
Hiring no new evils in its train, that the public
excitement, already very high, would bo per
mitted to subside without any attempts to in
flame it anew—and that it is not so, has hot n
occasioned bv no act of mine, that the charge,
and my denial may not be misunderstood, 1
repeat them. I now quote from the Tele
graph of the 11th inst., which is before tnc.
It differs slioht.lv from that recited in my
Card of last week, which the public will re
collect, was fiotn memory, and l will here
state that the Telegraph of the llth arrived
in Columbus, on the night of the ‘24th, making
an interval of 13 days from the time of pub
lication, until its arrival here, the route from
Macon is direct, and the communication dai
ly, the packet therefore, could hardly have
miscarried, still it may not have been de
signed, the public wiU judge; perhaps the
imputation in my Card, may account lor its
arrival at all, and if it is asked why they should
he retained, the public will find an ample
answer in this and the accompanying com
munications. The charge in the Telegraph
is, “And yet another Methodist, Harwell (the
laird have mercy on me for polluting my
j*cn, with such a man’s name,) when lie heard
Hie report of the gun, exclaimed, Milton has
killed Camp. I must go and employ Iverson
for iiiii defence, as M. requested me to do t>o as
sson as I heard the gun lire.” This statement
mi tlie Telegraph is upon the authority of Dr.
-MiID, J repat, the charge in any shape, by
IH. Mills,or by whomever else made is lalsc.
Dr. .Mills will probably attempt to interpose
between himself and the public, a man by
the name of l’osteet, ns his authority in sup
l»ort of this charge. It is current in Colum
bus that they (I shall he understood h re l>\
the term they) have procured l’ostcct s affida
vit, that I did use the words charged upon
me, and which I have denied—it is furtlu r
understood, that the affidavit will appear in
the Democrat as soon as the Editor gets paper.
1 stateadviscdlv, that affidavit lias been made
—1 hope it will be published! Posted is
too low if that affidavit were to he confuted
to Columbus, to make it necessary for me to
defend myself even against his oath, but as
it may have a wider range, 1 leave thought
proper to anex Dr. Carue's certificate, a gen
tleman generally, and advantageously known
by which its utter falsity is proven. I pon L*’

Dear Sir— Yous note of this morning is
received, in which is contained an cxtracl
Ironi the Macon lelegraph, charging you
with certain expressions at the lime” the gut*,
fired which killed Camp.
1 was in your Office at the time, and re
mained there until you left. Sitting near die
door where you coulj readily see the parties,
you made an exclamation which was perfect
ly natural. “Oh Milton has killed Camp,”
but that von added “ 1 must go and employ
Iverson sot his defence as Milton reqosted me
to do so, as soon as 1 heard the gun fire” is
utterly false. I have perfect recollection of
the matter, as my notice was called to it the
next evening by Iliram Warner Esqr. mak
ing a similar statement to the one above re
ferred to at which time I attempted to disa
buse his mind on (he subject and assured him
of its entire incorrectness.
Very Respectfully,
ROBERT W. CARNES.
September 20, 1833.
11. J. Has well, Esq.
In an anonymous letter published in the
Macon Telegraph of the I till inst.’ (and
which I never could see until tins week,) the
Mcthodjst Church of Columbus, is alledgcd
to be stained with tlic blood of Camp, and
this by the Conduct of myself and some others,
Ministers and members of the Church. To
make out this charge the writer “ says
Hodges another l’reachi r, tells Girdnir also a
methodist, that he had learned from a respec
table source that Camp intended to shoot
Milton on sight. Now I ask where and when
did 1 use that language, it is not found in Mr.
Girdncr’s testimony nor mine, to Mr. G. 1
said nothing in regard to the authority on
which my statement to him was made, only
that it was reported in town C. intended to
shoot M.
1 stated to Mr. G. that I was constantly in
apprehension when those gentlemen were in
Town that they would have a rencountei, and
I feared it would terminate fatally, as it was
understood they both went armed, and who 1
ask, in this place, did not indulge these ap
prehensions. The difficulty was the suljcct
of daily conversation. Now it the witter
had given a history of facts, as they were on
ly, 1 should have had no cause to notice his
publication ; he pretends to have strong at
tachment to the Church, ami yet to make out
his cause against the Church he has to find
words, and sentiments, ami sentiments, not
stated by the witnesses—and to associate
with members of the church, Mr. Coleman,
who is not a member, who he virtually charges
with perjury, but who for integrity and vera
city will compare in this community with
the writer, or any man, capable of thus at
tacking him.
In conclusion I state now as I did in court
when subpoenaed on the part of the prosecu
tion, that I hud not interfered, in the dispute
in any shape or form, except when 1 called
on Col. Milton, to settle some professional
business which he had of ours in his hands,
iic named the difficulty to me, and asked
what lie should do, I advised him to a course
which i iiiuogm intgtii uuju:,- a...
and urged him by no means to make an at
tack on Mr. C. To tne it docs appear that
the writer must have been hard run for ma
terials when in furnishing his “facts”—he
found it necessary to attack the church, the
jury, the witness and the part of the Attornics
for the defence. If it affords the writer any
pleasure to regard me as a “ wolf in sheeps
clothing”—he may have that pleasure, for the
purity of my motives and rectitude of my
conduet, I appeal to a higher tribunal.

p. s. Tlic testimony as taken down by
order of the court will be published, and to
that 1 refer the public for the (rue facts in
the case.
TO TUBS PUBLIC.
In the Macon Telegraph of the llth inst.
I stand charged as one of the Methodists ol
this place, against whom is alledgcd, a con
spiracy with Milton, in the death of Camp*
to which 1 feel hound, as a citizen of the
Slate, and member and Minister of the Me
tliodist Church, to reply ; —not that the slan
der, could injure me or the church, in this
community where the facts arc known but
that it was intended to have that cflcct abroad. -
I am unable to conceive of any just cause,
whv the author of that letter wished to cen
sure me. For- I have continued inactive
throughout the whole of this unfortunate
transaction, and attended to my business, as
Minister V>f the Methodist Episcopal Church
in Columbus• I can conceive of no other
reason, than the fact, that I am a Methodist,
which seems to be enough for the tongue or
pen of some writers on this subject! the fact
alledgcd against me, and for which I am de
nounced a wolf in sheeps clothing &c. is that
Camp was pointed out by me to Cow art, a
witness on whom (as the writer says) Milton
mainly relied on bis trial This is so repre
sented to the public, and doubtless too with
that intention, as to make the impression,
that I took an active part, and aided in the
death of Camp intending, theieby to excite
public prejudice against me, as well as the
ehurch the charge is false and slanderous—
and all who heard the testimony (on which
l rely to sustain me in this assertion) must
he and arc convinced of the fact. It is true
t pointed out Camp, to Cow art of Jefferson
county hut under the following circumstan
ces, and which were testified to before the
cou 'rt Mr. Cowart and myself were at the
door of (I think) Beardsley A' Co’s. Store on
Broad Street, when Milton rode by—and
(j„ m p was at the same time passing dawn tlic
street. 1 observed to Cowart there was
Camp— and l feared that the difficulty be
tween him and Milton, would some day end
fatally, or in bad consequence* —and yet this
occurred on the 15th of July, nearly one
month before Camp’* death and it cannot h
strange or extraordinary, that I should have
.minted him out, to Cowart who was n strati,
gcr in tbiacommunity, when it is remember,
ed, that the difficulty then existing, wus the
suhiert of constant conversation ; and yet up
on this tcstiinouv I am charged w ith conspira

thorized, to point me out as a wolf, having
crept into the fold of Christ.
Having stated the facts in this matter, 1
am willing without comment, to submit them
t«i the public, who can determine, whether
these are sufficient reasons for the writer al
luded to, to have charged me publicly as one
of the instruments of Camp’s death ; a false
prophet &c. of whom he wishes the church
of his parents delivered and against whom he
would guard the world as a deceiver.
JESSE BORING.
TO TIIE PUBLIC.
In the Macon Telegraph, of the 11th inst.
I am represented, as one among the metho.
dist, who are charged with conspiracy, in
thedcuth of Camp, which charge 1 prcnoupce
to be false, and slanderous, ami moreover
that the writer of that piece, has misrepre
sented my testimony in the court :—This he
must intentionally have done, as a record of
the testimony was kept, to which lie could
have had access, had lie desired to publish
the truth.
This shall suffisc for the present, and
should these statements lie controverted, the
testimony will be introduced to substantia!
facts. GEORGE W. GIRDNER.
TO TUB PUBLIC.
In the macon Telegraph ot the 1 Ith inst.,
there appeared a scurillotts am! slanderous
letter, purporting to lie written (rout Colum
bus, slandering and abusing tho methodist
generally, and particularly sotno of its m *m
hers, among other things it is stated that
“ Coleman alluding to myself still another
methodist told M. that he actually saw Camp
attempt to shoot him while his M’s. hack was
turned towards him C., and that the shooting
was only prevented by another gentleman
who stepped up at the moment’—he farther
Slates that this statement is not confirmed.
The Editor of tho Telegraph has given Dr.
Mills as the author of that letter. I take
diia occasion to stale that this statement of
the testimony by Dr. Mills is also in two par
liculars. I give in no such testimony as that

JOHN COLEMAN.
From the Georgia Telegraph.
CcLUJinus, Sept* Olh, 1833.
Mr. Editor. —l perceive there has be 11
some sparring between the Telegraph and
Messenger with regard to the connection
which the church had with the affair between
Camp and Milton.— l have therefore con
cluded to give you some facts 011 the subject
from which the people may draw their own
inferences. It does indeed seem slarnge tnat
Methodists should have acted such conspic
ous parts in that bloody tragedy. But what
are the facts? Cowart, the witness liotn Jef
ferson county, on whom M. placed so much
reliance, did not know C. until the station
preacher of the place pointed him out at a
(distance. Hodges another preacher, tells
Girdner, also a Methodist, that he had learn
ed from a respectable source that <'. intended
to shoot M. on sight.—Vl hen Hodges ivas
put upon oath, he was asked from what source!
he derived his information, lie replied in j
these words, “ chiefly from Col. Milton.”—:
And this was his respectable authority. Well,
so soon as the information was communicated{
to Girdner, he immediate posted oil’ with the
news to M. and like a good messenger ofj
peace, asked him, provided he could prove;
this threat on the part of C. iff he would not
lie justifiable in shooting him down wherever;
he might find him? This pirtiis and heaven-:
Iv insinuation must coiuc from
the heart of a good Christian! Thrice happy,
the church, whose border is croweded with
such bright and shinning lights—th y are
lights that cannot he hid—a city set upon a
hill. ’ I
Coleman, still another Methodist, fold M.
that he actually say Cainp attempt to shoot
him while his.(M.) back was turned toward
him (C.) and that the shooting was only pre
vented by another gentleman who stepped up
at the moment. This gentleman, this pre
server of life has never yet revealed liitnseh :
the alleged fact itself has not been confirmed.
Jones, who you know to he a good Metho
dist, so soon as the deed was done, ran over
to M’s office without his hat, ttnd was seen to
shake hands with with the assassin. What
malignant deed of darkness may not he tortur
ed into joy and gladin s* —1>» a friend !!
And yet another Methodist. Harwell, (the
Lor I have mercy on me for polluting my ikjii
with such a man's natn>,) when |n heard the
Senators and Refkesentativks.
report of the gun, exclaimed, “Milton has
killed Catn;ql must go and employ Iverson for
his defence as M. requested me to do as soon as
I h aril the gun fire.” And strange to tell, he
guessed itexactly M-ltad murderedC.aad some
one employed Iwrsona few minutes after. But
when this gentleman heard the testimony on
the trial for commitment, he nobly refused to
serve, he withdrew from the case because his
honorable feelings would not permit him to
advocate such base conduet.
To conclude tlic offensive catalogue, four
methodist lawyers appeared ill this defence,
and when the unrighteous verdict was re
lumed, the little thin g, whose using shall not
contaminate my pen a second lime, ran up
to him and cried out, “Milton, give us your
paw.” And to him must lie awarded the uti
i nviable distinction of being preeminently
worthy to touch a savage paw and to press it
close to his ignoble heart—a foul receptacle
of every thing which is low, base, and detes
table. The blood of Camp stains the skirts
of the church—whether intentionally or
otherwise 1 cannot presume to determine. It
may for ought 1 know he a parallel for Avery’s
case a! the north. Let the church investi
gate the conduct ot these tattlers and b'jjv
bodies—if found unworthy of the holy s .ctua
rv, fol them he east off without r jgard to
tiieir earthly possessions. \N e firmly believe
that religion is essential to the well being of
man in tiiis world and i.ri 7nat which is to
ro ue, and we exceedingly regret to see it
brought into disrepute by its professed devo
tees. My parents jnd friends arc inethodists
and of course tv 3 prejudices and preposses
sions are all i., favor of that denomination.—
We speak not of the ehurch, but of individu
als. Asa body of Christians they are not ex
celled by any odior in the United States for
1 heart felt piety and devotional zeal—but their
(must partial advocates will not pietend to say
that ravenous wolves in Sheep’s clothing have
not crept in among the genuine flock - It is
against such alono that we say any thing, anil
wo hope none others will tako offence. He
