Fellow - Citizens ,
From che fuggeftions of
many of my fntnds, 1-lknced fome
time fioce to piclent my n-me in
tne iilt of candidates to reprclent
you in the next Cos. grclis ol tne U.
States. 1 feel 11 a outy thus early
to announce my determination to
decline. Tne rtalons t x my a
doptiug tliii mealurc, 1 mail briefly
ftatr ;—I have held a cummifiion in
tne militia for neatly twenty years,
arid at preient command the regi
ment compiled of the counties of
Bryan, LtOercy and M‘lntufh, The
expoled iituaron or thole counties,
all on che leabcard, requires, not
only the zeal and vigdancc of all
their < fificus, but that every man
refi ling therein ih >uid at all times
be icadjf to take his pwft, and haz
zard h s life for their protedion
Thus fi .ua ed, I cannot canfent now,
that our country has juft embarked
in a war agamft Great-Britain, to
withdtaw my military lervices, aad
rclinqu.fti a pvft chat I have fo long
held in time of peace; which would
be the cafe, if by the foff ages of
my fellow-citizens, I were to be
eleded to Coagrels, and aflumed
upon myfelf the duties of that ap
pointment. I truft that tliefe con
iiderations will be d.emed amply
fufficient for my deciini g to be a
candidate for congrefs, at this time,
by thofc of my friends to .whole
fuggeftions I yielded in becoming a
candidate, and others whofe opini
ons of me would have caui'td them
to give me their fuppert. Alluring
rov friends, however, that 1 feel
not lels the weight cf the obligation
which this renewed evidence ot their
regard and favorable opimen have
impend upon me.

THE remarks letfljr publifoed fo

we aiiy with lslety haazard tne

he may have the privilcdge of wrar

.Whatsoever ye have ipoken in

tame —and it will, looner or later,

that are trtafured up in the heart.
Therefore, beware Federalifts, To

at what hour this little member fhail
fet your whole body on fire, and
bring forth the iniquity of your

fay to the mountains, fall upon us;
and to the hills, cover us. There
fhail be weeping, and wailing, and
gnafhing of teeth.
We fhail not only avenge the
