MIR. PLEASAE7S,
S;Ig.

Mr.. PLEASAH7S,
SIR,
| OBSERVE in your
paper of this day, some severe structures
on the Judges, who presided at Mai Da-
Wis Floyd's trial for a miSdemeanor in the
Indiana Territory, and the Legislature
thereof who elected him their clerk
Floyd is also denominIted an ATTRACTIONS
wretch. Those structures sir, would not
have been made, had the author been pre-
sent ut the trial of Floyd, had he heard
the testimony, and had he Witnessed The
frank and manly conduct Of the accused.
a concise statement of the circumstances
attending the trial, viii enable the public
TO draw correct deductions. j shall pre-
mise, tho that the opinion of the public,
founded on the moderation OF the punsh-
ment of Floyd, hat the court was biased
in his favor, is erroneous. Floyd's coun-
Gil complained Of the reverse. Major
Floyd was Indicted for a misdemeanor,
appeared thereto and pleaded mot guilty.
His council did not deny his connection
with Burr. But denied his participation
in the guilt for the whole tenor Of the
testimony, connected with various corro-
borating circumstances evidently went to
prove his total exemption from traiter-
ous enterprise, and also his exemption
from the crime of which I've was charged.
1t was impressed upon Floyd's mind, that
governmental sanction was attached to the
expedition. 4 letter was shcwn him sign
ed II. Dearbornc. Men high in Office, per-
suaded him % embark. And 1t was then,
generally believed, that we we're upon the
eve Of war with Spain. To be upon the
confines of the Spanish provinces, az the
inncturc, when war should be DECLARED a.
gainst that power, must be 20 every re-
iccting mind, a position incidentally favor
able for a sudden eruption therein. These
facts were made apparent 10 the jury, they

Chas he was connected. wth Burr, tIatEhe

sailed from shs fails ofthe Ohio in ore ~
Burr's boats. OF which he had the comm ard.
brought in verdict Of guilty." Yet
strange TO tell, three Of the Jury, forthwith
voluntarily gave an affidavit, that they did
not believe him Intentionally guilty, and
similar sentiment appeared TO pervade
the whole body. Upon this ground, and
the exclusion OF some testimony. VIII CHI the
council for Floyd, deemed important and
legal, they moved for new trial. In
which, however, they were overrued-
They then fled several err,rs in arrest of
Judgment. Upon one of which there was
a division of the court. Ii WAS then in.
sisted, that the question should preponde-
rate in favor ofthe prisoner. In the inte-
rim, the judge who had delivered an opi-
Mon favorable 70 the accused, became CON
WINGED OF its error disliking a public re-
ci,nta,ion, a compromise was effected be-
tween the court and the prisoners coun-
Gil.
1t is represented, that Floyd was imue-
diatelY subsequent thereto, elected to an
important and lucrative Office. 10 the
clerkship OF the House ~ DELEGATES, fer
the I. I. at S 2 per day, for about four
weeks Tie was elected almost unanimous
lv, there was on'y one disseutient vote
also, beg leave to make known to the
public, that the inhabitants OF the r. are
as wei affected to the preservation Of the
union, and TO the present administration Of
the general government as the inhabitants
ct this, or any other state or territory -
And IN my opinion, no man is more so. than
the subject Of this piece. The amor pa
triae, anlnates his bosom, heroic bravery
characteristics the man. and in case, the cx-
tNa.f
the foremost to avcrge his countrv's
wrongs. He is no Desperate. BANKRUPT,
disappointed or disaffec'ed character. lie
is now convinced Of Burr's nefarious de-
signs, and would he among the first to op-
pose their regeneration.
