The associates and well-wishers OF Burr's
conspiracy here, writhing with anguish I'M
der their disappointments, have called
forth all their powers for defamation, to
SANDER the proceedings and Willy the cha
ractcr of General Wilkinson, whom they
consider the author OF their mlStortuneS,
and the destroyer ofthcir golden prospects
a most Infamous memorial calculated for
this purpose, written by the public default
ter, Ned Livingston, ami brought into the
representatives house of the territory, by
one Parrot, q wanderer and fugitive, for
merlv clerk in and turned out of the ma
wv department lately rNF from
Natchez, with the s*~* of a man who had
fed and clothed him, and now returned as
a legislator from the county Of Opelousas,
where he succeeded in his election by gross
sssHss. This man, covered rs he is with
infamY, is now associated with the notables
of our countrymen who have taken refuge
here Another worthy who has dlstin-
guishcd himself in support of this libel is
Mr.. Hughes, from the remote settlements
OF Washita, man who can scarcely read
or write, the successor of man who was
pardDned under the gallows III the state of
New YorI;-rheSe men have made flaming
speeches, in which they have been second
cd by the late Mayor, Doctor Watkins, who
has outraged every thing oftvuth & intcgri-
ty, to CRAFTY his disappointment at Burr's
failure, and his rage at being turned out of
Office. Parrots s:.ecch is confcsscdly Ned
Livingstou's composition, and Huges's is
the production of Doctor Dawjack, a
French refugee from ST. Domingo, the bro
ther-in-law of Ned, who has charged it
highly with falsehoods, particularly respec-
ting his stoppage and treatment as he APP
preached this city. Finally after every
sort of modification, art, intrigue an adj
dress. this banthng of our Ned was rejec-
ted without the discussion of its merits by
a majority of Fourteen 70 seUen-and in
spite of the misrepresentation, the corrupt
arts, cunning, and influence of the Burrtes,
the merchants, bank directors, legislative
COUNCIL and assembly, with the exception
of fifteen or twenty, have addressed the me-
mortal, of which you have copy inclosed,
to the general-indeed, had time been al
lowed, the whole CITY would have signed it,
excepting the members the Mexican com
bination, which includes too many cfo our

MEMORIAL.
SIR,

DIR,
The recent arrest of Aaron Burr
has, we hope, dissipated the dangers
which have menaced the peace and safety
of tins CITY we therefore beg leave to con-
graduate YOU on the discontinue of the
wicked plot, and to present you our &C
acknowledgements for the protection you have
afforded us.
Spectators Of the difficulties and en-
barrassmentS By which we have seen you
encompassed, we believe that a knowledge
of facts and circumstances as they have re-
ally occurred, Will satisfy every unpreju-
diced person, that the decisive steps to
which you rcsorted, in critical moment,
were not only justiGable, by the extremity
of the case, but were essential TO our pre-
servation.
We are not surprised at the alarm nor do
We condemn the sensbilities which were ex-
cited by the extraordinary measures, which
sense of public danger compelled you to "a
dept, because the rights and liberties of an
American citizen cannot be too sedulously
guarded. But we are persuaded that in the
instance, which has given origin to this adj
dress, your conduct has been loyal, dutiful
and patriotic, and that when your motives
are made manifest by fair developement
of the transactions which have engaged
your attention in this city, the impartial
and enlightened part ofthe world, will con
cur with us i'll acknowledging your merits
and services.
We lament THE domestic Affections which
press upon you, and beg you to accept our
best wishes for your future fame, prospe RI
ty and happiness.
