Died, on Thurfday, the s'h
inftant, at the feat of govern
merit, W3pt Andrew Elton If ells y
of the Bulloch county battalion
of militia, a young man in the
bloom of life, and umverfally
lefpetled by all who knew him,;
as well in the private as public:
walks of fociety. _ 'j
His merits may be eflimated
by the confidence placed in hifn
by his country —For altho' he
was barely 24 years of age, he
was railed to the command of
the militia of the county he
belonged to—and had been
defied twice to the legiflaturc,
and once to a general conven
tion, as its reprefentative. He
was cn the duties of his Ration
as a member of the houfe of
representatives, when he was
feiz-d with the difeaie, which
put a period to the cxiftence of
his amiable youth.
The legiflaturc having finifbed !
he bufinefs of the feßion, and,
lieing about to adjourn when his
leath happened, appointed a
efpeftable committee of both
iranrhes, to fuperintend his
uncral—And his Excellency
governor Jackfon, to pay his
emains every mark of refpeft,
ndered the Louifvillc Artillery,
mder capt. Shelman, to attend
md fire minute guns to the num
} r r, f h' s years of age, during
he proceflion, which took place
n the following order :

being fnatched by the rclentlefs

the dignity and awfulnefs of the

an impreflion on the minds of

which will not haftily be effaced.

Will judge Elifworth be a
welcome ambaffador to France,
is a queflion which naturally
occurs after the fentirnents which
he expreffed on the trial of Ifaac
Williams, for becoming a citi
zen of France, and for ferving
it in that capacity.
■ /
A cbrrefpondent vviflies to be
informed, whether the honor
and dignity of government reßs
folely with the Prefident of the
United States, and theariflocrats
in office ? He obferves, that
Luther Baldwin has been fined
one hundred and fifty dollars,
only for aflerting that he did
not care what befrl a certain
part of the Prefident—while
thofe pretended fcdcraliffs are
daily damning the Vice-Presi
dent, and poßmg him up to
ridicule and contempt, in every
barber's fhop! and that if the
laft mentioned indignity was
offered John Adams in-
Read of 1 homas Jefferfon, the
pretended f» lends to good order
would tear the print from the
wall, horfe-whip every perfon
concerned in the execution of it,
and kick the barber who poßed
it up, head-long out of his fhop.
The above obfervalions are
but 100 true. Thole very per
fons who contend for the honor
and dignity of government with
fo much zeal, Can behold with
pleafure a n d app obation an in
tuit offeied to any portion or
branch of that beloved govern
ment, if filled by men who can
not think exaftly like themfelvcs.
Eveiy calumny and abufive in
vedive ha? been poured forth
againlt that friend of his coun
try, who drafted our declaration
of independence. He and the
republicanmembersofCongiefs,
with perhaps a very large major
ity of the people of the United
States, have been acculed ot
compofing a French faction in
this countiy, highly dangerous
to our government and conßitu
rion.
No one, but a knave and a
fool, will pretend to believe that
there exifls in this country a
French fadion dangerous lo our
government and conßitution!
Put that our conßitution is in
danger of being deftroyed by
Britifli influence, is not lo in
vifible.
To fee that there was a fee of
tyrants in this country who wifh
to crufh republican principles
under feet, and grind the poor
under the chariot wheels of the
great, would he no novelty
among us in thefe days —but
that the well-born had a right to
adaflinate a poor man, and then
be admitted to bail, we had not
learnt until lately.
