SIR; Ia your paper OF the 3lst July you have been
pleased 10 animadveri the rsina-k4 which fell
rom me in reply 20 Toast at the 4h Of Juy cee-
bra,ion a, the Orange SPRING..
In the fret plscs you published that had "hoi.,ed

ties
sa' Discussion with you npon the points noticed by YOU
mt 10 correct apprehension; no len upon
the subject of doctrine.
In your paper OF ;hs Tn August, ven have again
done injustice to my mo'ives:-you have quoted ons
sentence and cay that il chimes welt in III chorus wi
Nh Doid'idge; thereby in,inuating lhNI am on. OF
the consP!rators, who would disturb the peace and
harmony Of society by reyving the Convention qies-
! ton.
In making this insinuaiion you have .rhaps (vith.
out intending ~ done ma kininess-for it gjyes me
an opportunity OF saying that admire the talents Of
Mr Dotdrigs more thar his patriotism and dscr stion
and that ! consider Mr.. Doddridse or ann man
who would FIR years TO come, agta,e the further alter
alton Of the Constitution no better than a common dis
urber of the peace; ani merng the severe reprebsn-
sion OF every Republican and friend to COOL order in
society: and further take the liberty of saving he has
in his speech, siandered the memory of William III
FitZhugh. 1 knew too well the high honor, and pure
patriotism o. that man, 10 believe for moment he
would have lent his cooperation 10 any such licen-
tious or dsOrganiZng scheme. The friends of Con.
venion originally scughi it, principally for three great
objects, VITO equaize to extend In
right OF SnBroge andio make the Judges more respon.
si6le These objects they have substantial, obtained;
and although MT exactly n the manner wished vet
am satisfied; end hre the matter may rest so far as
concerned

guage OF Patrick Henry say, of ths be Rebellion
make the most OF it,"
What is sad about notification was with view IL
distinguish between the pure doctrines; cautious and
prudent course .o Virginia. and The rdshness which
has marked the course OF certain meetings i'm the
South; 10 repudiste and dscsn all scheme. aud design
