FROM THE (GEoR eIA) Mox1roR.

In proportion as the structure of a go
vernment gives force to public opinion, il
should be enlightened"
These words are to be found in the vale
dictory address of the father Of our coun-
try, and comprise in them, the most i'm
portant principle connected with the object
of our government. In no situation, since
the retreat of the venerable Cine nnatus to
the enjoyment of private life, after having
devoted twenty years and more, to the SER
vice OF hrs country, have the people of these
states been placed, when it became more
essential for their prosperity as a nation, to
make practical use and application of
this maxim, than the present.
We lind the citizens much divided i'm O..
pinion as TO the conduct of col Burr and
general Wilkinson. While many exercise
emotions of gratitude 60 the commander in
chief for his prompt exertion to resist the
purpose Of treason, others denounce him as
an enemy to his country, and in the same
moment sing halleiujahs in commentator
Of their favorite, and by their conduct pal
pdbly declare themselves the advocates of
Burr yes, further, by the interest which
they manifest, they demonstrate their rea -
diness, we're it not for their pusilanimity
and cowardice, to repair to his standards
But my fellow citizens those Of you, who
are actuated neither by mistaken attach
ment to Wilkinson, nor by an unprinciped
love for Burr, but governed by the noble
love Of your country, and respect for its
civil institutions, let Us try the matter in all
the sobriety Of reason--let us marshal facts
as they are before our Observation-Disclosures
us confer with the principles Of truth
let us decide measures, instead Of our par
tialites and prejudices for or against this
or that man and we shall then be able to
determine correctly, the purposes, the
plans, the fears and purturbations which
have agitated our peace and rufiled our
tranquility;

son, Contend. there 4sas enough in the
scenes that were passing on the Chic aud
the Mississippi, when conducted by Aaron
Burr, to authorize appropriations for defence.
And had Wilkinson with these facts star
ing him III the face unaccomted for, and
unexplained, neglected he most energetic s.
vlgalent measures, he most unquestiouably
would have forfeited and dvservedly, the
confidence of his country.
But burrs guilt, was not only probable
as proved BY the preparation of boats, the
collection OF stores, and the asscmblage II
an unusual number of suspicious characters,
IN motion on the Ohio and it's waters; all
under the eye Of man who had been dis
tinSulshed by the favor of his country: and
who OH account of his disappontments had
exchanged the seat of government for the
wild deserts of Kentucky. The coniecturcs
naturally excited by these inexplicable ar
ranSements were strongly corroborated by
the communications made To the comman!
der by Burr; through the medium of his
minions.
WIN the fact be denied, that Burr had
made an attempt to corrupt the chiel of
the American army Who introduced
owartwout TO Wilkinson J Aaron Burr.
What was the consequences of that intro
ductlon Propositions by Swartwout to col
league the American army with the trai-
for. What are we forced to believe from
the conduct of Bollman } That he was
confidential messenger from Aaron Burr.
Are these circumstances eguivocal Or do
they in spite of all the sophystry of even
Burr himself pronouce the traitor gully of
| treason.
Reason and common sense answer in the
affirmative. Treason was stalking among
the citizens; treason was comforting with
ofhcers OF the army and temporising with
the sanctuaries of justice. Was this a
| time for hesitation Was this time for
deliberation To day the city is free, to-
morrow 1T may be tributary to the insatia-
Die avarce of rebels and insurgents. I'm
der such circumstances, at crisis so por-
tentous, to have DELAYED, would have been
treason itself To his immortal honor he
1t told, Wilkinson struck the blow which
appalled, the enemy, and saved his country.

DIX,
Iperceive in your paper of to dav, a
communication stating, that ia meeting

conduC', several shots were exchar ged wi,bs

1t is obvious that the intention of the au-
thor OF that piece, was to injure my replI-
tation, and that too in mean and BASTARD
ly way for although what he states is the
truth, he has not stated the cause of nv
hring.-It is as follows:
There was particular stipulation be.
tween the parties, which was communica.
ted TO the Gentlemen when they took their
ground, that either Of them fired. before
they should receive the word, the friend
of the Gentleman fired on, should immedi-
ately shoot him. Doctor Stark fired before
the word, and did my duty.
Writing, Sir, is not my profession.
have no wish to be engaged in newsnaper
contentious. Should any thing further he
published on this subject, hope the authors
will add their names.
AS the communication was made through

you will have the justice to give this a place.
