Stephen Cullen Carbeatsr,-once Pay master
OF his Britannia Ma ustv, and author of the " Me
mOiFs OF Thomas Jriierson'-hanted out by
the vig',ant eye OF the Aurora, has attempted TO
defend himself against its aitsclss-in Il letter
addressed 10 the Z" United States Gazette" of the
2fth lnst-His defence is 4 complete confession
Of his gmft- 1t is gross and scurrilous attack
upon the Editor OF the Aurora-but as TO the
charges against himself, he does not pretend to
deny one Of them. He neither pretends tn dis
pute that he has been British Pay-master, that
he lsnow British Spy, or that he is the author
OF the " Memoirs Of Thomas Jefferson But
there is matter OF indirect confession enough
in his defence to convict him OF every charge
What does he say as the authorship of the Me-
moirs Wny-aerely that " from the antipathy
OF The Aurora to the volume alluded to, he feels
already pre- JUDGED in it's favor and OH ,.,at
ground alone ventures to affirm that it is full of
truth and worthy of "A much better writer than,he
pretends to be. When L learn, SAYS this pensi-
oned soPhist, 7rhm the 6ook rs will offer you my
opinion oft" Now, 1T is fact, that the Aurora
has designated the work by such a title and SUI n
marks, as that no literary man in Philadelphia
could pretend ignorance otu And abr tbs iqns-
rance That he might avoid the consequences of
owning it.
AS TO the charge of his Being British Ennis
sary-what saith this vir;uou. man Why--ss if
1t were true, what would be iiis crime That of
doing an act which, is in itself iegal'' So is iiAg
so are many forms OF s1yiHdiigy-sO are some Of
the most infamous acts OF the family of co,ruo-
ton" WHAT'S my CRIME in the eyes of this co
onei One that should make him shudder, ifhe
were not steeied against remorseA FIDELITY
TO MY couNTRY."-Just the same plea AS JUS
tilted the espionage and hypocrlcy Of Cobbctt-
" the sole purpose of scrving his king and coun-
try"
And yet this is the minion, who has been che
lished and pa,ronised by our countrymen--T This
is the spy, whose genius, though it will never -
title Inn to "a statue OF god," viii at least de
serve from the British ministry, a Statue of brass

for human nature they have borne suffer-

they have submitted to them, and vented
their dispositions only in memorials to the

they, all this excessive suffering to which
