FELLOW CIrizess. r
THAT doubts may cease 0 exist about
iay Offering TO represen, this disiria at the next
Senatorial election, think il right TO say, that
il ] live shall be Candidate.
1. is always improper it to be avoided. for
man TO cay any thing for himself: and cstsen,e-
y regret thai feel compelled from ci,cumstan-
ces which exist 70 do so.
Because profess Christianity my views are
denounced. and design is ATTACHED !; but since it
IS my opinion that the religion OF an individual
belongs 10 himself. I would willingly ask that
indulgence of Others which am willing to ex-
tend. If others differ with me, il ought not TO
become source of contest, for in this way has
It happened, that mighty dissentions Lave been
generated and cherished.
Aitno' am no advocate for religious rests, &
have always thought that government and reiigi-
on ought 20 unite IN no plan Of epe,ation, yc,
| have never learned thar the religious belief Of
| man made Inn. worse citizen, or a worse re.
preventative.
What the people are TO require, IL whether
my political principles are of the kind they wish,
aud not whether am of this or that religious
persuasion. II an enquiry of this sort should be
! gone INTO, have only TO asS Retrospect OF the
events OF my life. and an endeavour to find on,
whether AT any time have devia,ed from the
political principles which now avow.
If too, il should be found that my msntal &C
qurements lily qualify me sor an appointment SO
! imPortan, among the Candidates, Ibis defea can
be remedied, and an opportunity is afforded OF
making an election better suited TO the views OF
! the Peops.
Accept my respect.
