in death. for The good he permitted them
To return. Having reviewed the charges
exhibited BY Col w against this Bond
paying Ediior--onc Of which he donlcs- -
slaves Of another, ind attempts to manu-
fac'urc capital out of ALL appeal to the
verdic, of every swell thinking man" 10
say # they are not fully sustained. And
here would ask II it .be objectionable in
Col w. TO have been deceived by such a
man, what mass Of corruption must that
man exhibit?
I'll dared to approach so filthy thing, !
would hold up The mirror before him, no, TO
exhbi, his own doformiIy, but 10 show the
symmetry OF his proportions; for he ia, be
yond all doubt, what he was cut out TO DO
II is marked in every Iineament of his face!
Ii is worthy ofremark that the whole Of his
wo columns of vituperaiion and abuse, is
,ased upon The assumption on his part, that
, was impossible for Col Williams 10 hayc
Dcen deceived in him. 1ha, it was impos
siblc for the Col. to have believed him sim
,erc in his repentance for the venality of
his offer to support the repudia'ing adminis-
ration Of Gov. Tucker. Surely he must per>
suaie himso that rllain is stamped upon
his face in letters dark as Erebus; otherwise
he wonld admit the possibility Of dull man
being deceived in hun, knowing as he doub.
IessIy does, that deception has been the
business Of his life. Washington was de>
ceived in Arnold, yet nobody-no, even
Arnold himself, has attempted 10 inn
plicao Washington in Arnolds guilt. Where
then is tba,"self confessed" depravi,y and
want of principIe which on. Hero harps so
much upon? No where but in his own guilty
conscience. After all, what are the high
crimes and misdemcanors charged upon
him, and which he takes in such duds con !?
Nothing except little shullling 10 The ranks
as a party poIilician--a mere circumstance
for him. Had he replied in a
dignifed and manly roy, like Col Crockct,
that he had lied little to Mr.. Abbott and
others, on the spur Of the occasion, in his
struggle for office, he would have risen in
public estimation Generous minds, as.
nming that he Dad been guilty of nothing
worse, this bill of Indictment, might have
peratcd as letter of recommendation.
Then by little well timed and plausible
buse, he might have made Col Williams
eel the weight Of his Ilile "Ba.Is axe.''I
IS il is, the shafts ofhis mallgnity must fall
But how did Col W. merit the obscuritv,
rom which this Pink of Reputation caused
him 10 be dragged? Was it for the firm
stand he took as the Representative from
Kinds County in favor of r. J. Walker,
and in OPPOSITION to The Hon George Poin>
lsxter? Was it for any thing in the senate
# The u States? And what is the polti-
al Importance conferred upon him, over and
'bove what he enjoyed previous TO his hav-
ng been placed as clay, in the hands Of
his Political potter! Oh shame, where is
by Blush!
Again, It must not escape notice, tina: our
Hampton OF Anti bondcrs, in assigning his rea-
ons for changing bis position on the Goth OF July,
elects the testimony Of his own witness, whose
vidcnoc is unimpeac liable and bases the reasons
or his change, upon the statement of others,
whose names he does not give and whose evil
lence Ihazzard nothing in pronouncing false.
and that he knew il was false will be manifest
rom careful examination ofhis letter to Col.
Williams; yet in that letter he feiterates his be-
lief in the correctness of the information on
which he acted! He says sCapt. Miller did
write at my request history of the Convention.
But had at the same time some three OF four
accounts from different sources, all concurring,
nut different fr ON Capt. Millersn- He goes on
but was satisfied he was mistaken, and sub
equent enquiries have only served to confirm
by convictions upon the subject. If any doubts
emancd as to the correctness ofmy views, they
