The first part of Mr. Burgess reply 10 Cambre

has excited great enquiry We shall rspublish il
rs soon as We can. 1t unsurpassed IN rhetorical
brillnncy aptness and regency Of classic ausion and
sarcasm of the buterest nature. On reading il,
ono IS reminded of the observation made to John

JonN RANDOLPH The I,ynchburg Virgjnian of
Friday last, contains the following statement con
frmed by letters received in tins city from Charlotte:
G5-John Randolph a Candidate for COnpressu,
A gentleman OF tins place, who has Just returned
from Charlotte Court, informs us, that John Ran
dolph was announced Candidate for Congress
on Monday st. The annuncia;ion was authorised
by Mr Randoph's friend, JPiki an Leigh, Esq: and
there fore there doubt has been done at MIR Ran
dolphs instance. Thus ends the magnificent dipo
$4,000 for il?
All we regret, is that Mr. Burgess had not possess
sion Of this curious piece of intelligence when he
replied the other day II would have supplied his
full culver with another arrow. MIR Randolphs course
can surprise acquainted with him. He
ough, not to be blamed for irregularity incident
his physical constitution. The blame belongs to
those VINO employed hrs-to the base admixture of
fear and fattery which purchased his absence and
forbcarance ut the expcncc of the public purse and
the national dignity the degrading submission %
the terms Of acceptance which he dictated the con-
sequences of which, arc pay without service and the
abandonment Of tho important relations between the
United States and Russia to boy, too inexperien-
cod to understand and Impotent to advance them.
These just causes OF censurc aggravated by tho
consciousness of every man, that tho country has
been reduced to dilemma at on"e ridiculous and
dangerous, by the calculating views of cor
rupt AID prostitutcd dcmagoguc, dispensing the pat
ronage and treasure of the Government with steady
of self aggrandizement.
There s one other circumstance still better calcu-
lated to the Indignation of every independent
man it is The ready devotion with which the mnions
Of the Government come forward to defend conduct
entitled to indulgence, tho sudden return of Rufus
King from illncss,j these opologs,s Of power
denounced withou, qualification. This same little
Cambrecng, digniiod with cruciRxion by the terrible
orator from Rhode Island and who like some Of tho
Heroes Of the Duncod, stands chance OF being
imnorolzcd By the severity Of the castgation over
and above ms claims to conscqucncc--was not less
Indignant at Mr.. Kings return to die at home, than
l. -. -
cratic conduct, the improper spulatlons Of the
Government which authorized HIM TO traverse Eu.
rope at the public cXPcucc, tho motives of base
subsoryiency aud interested calculations which pronp
ted those stipulaons And our learned contemporary
tho pink Of consistency, and tho beau ideal Of lib
orality-whose feelings OF proprIcty scandal
lied at Mr. Kings return at the expiration of year
and whose indignation was not even appcased by tho
