Mr.. Editor: Mr.. Randolph having
DETAINED my private character in the
Senate of the United States came 10
this place in the hope OF prevailing on
him, by candid appeal to his judgment
and magnanimity, to retract bis accusa-
tons. With this view addressed him the
letter below, instructng the friend who
bore it, to assure him it was mofiensive
in language, and explanatory and paci-
fic in It's object This precaution was
used from a well founded apprehension
that MIR. Randolph might object to re-
ceiying it. The gentleman who carried
it made two Intellectual attempts 10 see
Mr. Randolph: when, believing that no
Interview would be allowed him, he en-
closed it, accompanied by note ut his
own. in which the above assurance, as
To the character of the letter, was made,
Notwithstanding r. Randolph refused
10 receive It, or at least to read IT, and
returned it by the hands of member
from Virginia. Defeated in the reason
able hope, that Mr.. Randolph would
condescend TO hear the defence Of citi-
zen and constituent, whom be had un-
Justly assailed, and repair the injury he
had inflicted. Task of you the favor to
make that defence known to the public.
Elevated AS he supposes, too high IN
rank and character to acknowledge me
in any shape, as an equal, to challenge
Mr.. Randolph would only be to make
myself ridiculous. Protected by his age ,
station, and iniirnitles, from personal
violence, were to seek redress in that
way. should be called bully OF the
Administration offend national decorum,
and be laid by the heels by the Senate
for breach of privilege All this Mr.
Randolph knows; and secure in his SEN
ator,al immunities, he rests on the
slaughtered regulations OF his fellow ci-
tizens. None are virtuous enough to es-
cape his unsparing maiignity, or obscure
enough to elude the blast OF his wither-
ing nlisanthropy. Friendship is forgot
ten in the fumes Of political intoxIcation,
and female nodesty itself flies, covered
with bushes, from the senate OF the
United States. In the same breath he
scatters the ashes of the dead, and MUIR
ders the fame of the living-and writes
in the same denomination, Jefferson
and an Editor.
