The public’s very humble servant, , ELIAS It LED. , A few .days before this fetter was written, and about a day previously to the receipt of Messrs Richmond k Thompson's letter, the Rev Mr. Boyd visited Savannah, and not knowing the precise state of negociations with other persons, and conceiving there could be no impropriety in receiving other ettimatet, did receive one from Messrs Lewis Ik Swift. On returning from Sa vannah, he met Benj. Holt, Esq. at Purysburg, who, informing him that he had in possession a letter, of the tenor of the foregoing, from the secretary of the committee to Messrs Richmond k Thompson, was requested by Ml’. Boyd to de liver it to him, that it might be returned to the committee for further consideration. Captain Holt knowing Rev. Mr. Boyd to be chairman of the committee whose communication it wus, accordingly delivered him the letter; which, being brought buck to the committee unopened,. could, if they so desired, have been forwarded, bf opinion, that the lovers of justice, trUtl In a day or two, by msil. to Mess|'s R & T.

John Moore, of Savannah, Georgia; in which he undertakes, by what he is pleased to cull “a plain unvarnished tale,” under the specious head of “The Church” addressed “to the inhabitants of Black Swamp,” to implicate and arraign our conduct before the public, us re- gurus our not.having given to hit friends Rich- tftond ti Thompson, Clark £J Lttffborongh, me chanics of Savannah, the contract for building a Church at Robertvillel 3. C —A decent regard to public opinion, anil h wish (harour friends (as .well us the friends of the thrhtian edate) should have to them the grounds of our. conduct ex plained in the matter, we are induced to submit the following statement , f Pitting the last winter, the undersigned, in conjunction with Rev. II. A.’ Boyd and Col. Tris tram VcWtiHe (both of whom aie -nowatthe North; were appointed a Committee, or Hoard of Managers, to provide for and superintend the erection of a Baptist Meeting Bouse at Robert ville.S.C. In executing the trust thus reposed in them, the GomniiViee drew a plan and advertised that they Would receive proposals until the 1st April. On that day when met. to examine and consider the estimates received, it .was found that none came within the views of the committee i they consequently, determined to continue longer to receive propisdli, and again advertised to tluat cf feet. Tlie Committee afterwards had various, meetings, With a view of executing with fidelity, th<{ A rust, committed, to them by the Church ; but not thinking it necessary, kept no particu lar record of tiieir meetings or deliberations. It may be prop'br to state,'that about this time, or suhsvquently, the said Mr. Mtiore, being at llo berivifle* urged the Committee to give his friends in Savannah an opportunity of sending in proposals; and tendered bis services tn the Committee, to treat, in their behalf, with sundry builders fu Savannah; he consequently became, in some ineusuie, the.medium ot communication between tlic committee a id the sai l builders. Having received, on or about 1st May last, the proposals of the sai l Messrs Richmond & Thompson, kc and not fully understanding them, the committee requested their Secretary to enquire iifo their specific meaning, through the tpediym of Mr. Moore: accordingly, .the Secn’ti/yi 1“ 11 private letter to Mr Juudoii of Savannah, requested liim to call on Mr. Moore, inform him of the matter of misunderstanding In this letter it was turn of their chairman, and unequivocally a/». proved the act of detaining the letter until they couhl take into consideration the proposals of Messrs Lewis ti. Swift; as unquestitinahly. it tons exclusively their o-wn property and at their own disposal, until delivered to whom addressed. We think it very clear.that the committee had a rightful control over theittown acts, and could receive and alter their revolutions ns they please,' so long as those act's were... not officially or special'y communicated to Other persons and thereby become obligatory on them. By what means Messrs Richmond ti Thompson, Moore, or any one else citild have become acquainted with the tenor of our (sealed) communication, or even that any at all had been written, we know not, nor do we think material.' We readily acknowledge the .fact, that such a letter was written, and intended to be forwarded, without conceding the point,that we werethere- by, either in honor or in a legal point of view, under an obligation to carry into effect what we Imd thus silently and transiently purposed. Had our letter been delivered to Messrs. R. & T, the case would hgve been materially altered t but certainly the cogitations or casual determin ations of our minds wicjmmunicaied, should not be viewed in the sacred tight of u contract,- if so, the committee would have beer/ under prior ob ligations, to other applicants than Messrs. Rich mmid Ik Thompson, It is well known to men of business that circumstances of this nature frequently occur, in which a similar course of procedure is both expedient and necessary. We are therefore at a hiss to know'thepm/ grounds of eensure with which the committee are im- pugned by Mr Moore, either as.regardsuA<? sup pression of the aforesaid letter, at, ,the contract not having fteen ultimately given to his friends. We cannot agree with Mr Moore that said letter wusthe'propertyofMessrs, Richmond & Thomp son, us it hud never been delivered them, on to any person for them except the friend and agent of the committee, Capt Holt, who,being one of the subscribers to tfye building, and in. common with the committee and others^ solicitous that the most judicious contract should be made, may be considered; in effect, a party concerned. The several charges alleged against the’Rev Mr Boyd, we think shameful and entirely desti tute of the least shadow of foundation. He is charged with “denying his being possessed ofthe aforesaid loiter, until it was about to be proved to be in his possession ” ‘ Thu fact Was, that' he delivt red tl{e said letter 10 (a majority of) the committee on the afternoon of the same day that he received it, and on which it was written^ at the same time informing them the occasion of his haring brought it back: lie therefore could have had no opportunhy, or occasion to have made such denial while it was in.his possession The charges of acting “hypocritically” and “eta uleslinely” are equally shameful and un- complaint,) the extn rated part ofthe Commit' • tee are entirely at a loss to sn i ■ how Mr vloure could make so wide a discrimination: nor can they, without doing greut .violehce to their feel ings and to justice, by silence^ give their impli ed sanction to the unwarrantable attack which has been made upoUthe characters ofthe remain. ii(g part of their body, in the publication of Mr Moore . We might say much with regard to the malignity of that production, and how'Hide it should be regarded,- oht, we desist s our object is not to injure the standing or reputution ofuin man; but only to show to all reasonable, gooi. men, that the Board of Managers of the lilac) Swamp Meeting (louse, do not deserve the ce. sines so industriously attempted to be alnxed i them.' From what has been stated, we are decided’ tli an ■ for M Moore's ill,muured animadversions upon ttTe conduct and character of the Committee; and tlmt should a dificrcncb of opinion have existed between him and them, (Ait difference was at tributable to other-motives limn tll <se With which he is pleased to.characte^ize them. . We would simply further remark, that the bare assertions of an individual, unsupported By the least shadow of evidence, ought not to‘ be received as conclusive against the character and conduct of an associated community, Whose standing in sooiety is fair and unimpeachable.

As regards his “clandestinely bar- galning with Messrs Lewis & Swift,” tlie very circumstance of no contract having been closed with any one, proves the change to be grossly incorrect. And ns regards his “hypocritically denying to the committee that he htid made any engagements wiiIt Messrs. Lewis & Swift,” an affidavit of Mr Robert Lewis (now in the pos session ofthe committee) most clearly proves that, so far from engaging with them, he discour and require an explanation. ... incidentally remarked to Mr. Jatulon, that the committee had S,aged and endeavoredtodis.uade Mr Lewisfrinn give thp,j^ going to Robertville,-observing lb him that he did not know what might have been transacted by the committee in his absence, and that he might have the trouble, farigue,- and expense of they inl'eiidul lb include tlie battling of the mate rials,- as, in that cate, theirs would be the most favoftibli:■proposals yet received.

' “SAVANNAH, May 3,1824. 'Mr. A. I. Xawtox, Sir—Mr Moore called on us this morning to inform us. you had received our estimate,but did Sot understand whether we were to haul tlie lumber or liot.

Respectfully yours &c. - ‘ J. R. THOMPSON, - < J. B. RICHMOND.” i From 1 the above letter it will be clearly seen that Messrs R 8t T. did not consider the iiego- ciation a* having terminated in a contract; and to giye the candid enquirer after truth in tins matter, the most positive proof that the commit tee did not so regard it, the following reply ("’Inch by the bye. was not delivered to Messrs R. 8t 1 ) is subjoined. “ROBERTVILLE, S. C. 7th May, 1824! From the explanations given in your favour last-received, the building committee have in structed me as their secretary, to inform you the journey tor nothing. He merely advised him to send his estimate; which the Secretary would lay before the Committee (if in time) and return him an answer. It is true that Mr Boyd gave Mr Lewis a seat in his gig from Purysburg; but it was because Mr Lewis was determined to o to Robertville, contrary to his advice; and as e could not get a conveyance otherwise, and made an attempt to walk) Mr Boyd, as an act of humanity, prevented his walking 'twenty miles on a sultry day, by giving him a seat.
