1 thought that the necessity of all
explanation would liaye triminateo
with the election, huleed I have
been, at no tittle of my lite, accus
tomed to the apologetic style; 1
flatten d myself that u?y actions did
not s i n 1 frequently in need of it;
and. iii deposition did not lead me
to unnecessary use of tlift whk h no
thing, couhl render proper, but some !
improper la havior ? however, m%\
dear#ir, tin it i* notiYuu; that \ou
think worth mentioning, that I d<?
not think worth expla-nuig. Il seem- j
jthen, that some ltiind> ?.f Air. |
are of opinion dial 1 have treated

? in not at all conscious of having
ac.ed in a in inner so directly

Uthr complaint had ?j:r,e no tin

}?\1 charge a gemiol di iiuil (wuch .
Mr, i i iirslh ir.i^hi) eft ift<c i.ki ??
die liiitntiou. l>ui, Miy luckilj iia
gentleman has entered fnto particu
lars, which enables inr to clear uj
this matter to your entire satifaction.
It is <aul that I did nut introduce
Mr. , 1 certainly did not intro
duce him, localise that ceremony i>
not practised at the o|K*niug of a new
Parliament, as L told Mr. when
he proposed to be introduced, though
not by me.*
For, as lie was not acquainted
with the manner in which member*
come into the house at the mee ing 01
a new Parliament, but supposed that
they were brought iti as in other
cases, 1>etween twromembers, he told
me he intended to be so brought in
by Sir William Meredith and Mr.
l>ar<>che. After this, 1 could not
intermeddle iu what related to the
formalities ; or, venture to put my
self ?u competition in |>oiut of rank
wttli a great officer of the Court or
of private friendship w ith an old Tel
low citizen, although a petitioner a
gainst us both ; but, in fact, there
neither was nor could be any intro
duction.
It seems that it is charged like
wise, that I pant no attention to Mr.
?^in the House. ri his report is
w ithout the least foundation. I ne
ver saw hLn except once, when 1
was engaged in a debate, without
goHt? from my place to speak to him.
lie must remember several conver
sations we held there and he must
be sensible that 1 have been very
exact in giving him a notice of any
business to w hich if might be proper
for him to attend, and Very punctual
in taking care that no accidental ab
9cence should turn to his disadvad
tage. This 1 have done from the
beginning. However, it seems to he
admitted that 1 was more diligent
in paying my compliments after his
speech. It is somewhat singular,
that the satisfaction I discovered on
the credit w hich Mr*-?-obtained ;
and, the testimouy which i bore to
his iieiiormance^ sh add make
part of a complaint agaiust me, I
do confess'that w hen much
pleased, 1 am very Itearht m my con
gratuiatious and very unreserved in
my applause. If this be an offence^
1 am certainty grrtlty. TWr^?is
" - ^ o ?' - T V*
another objection, still more serious,
that 1 had not visited my colleague
during bts illness. Ifthai .liad been
trge, it would have argued inhuman
ity, us well as impoliteness ; but, I
know and he know s, the fact to* Jie
otherwise. 1 have beeu six or seven
times at his door aud sent to enquire
every day. 1 was let injour times.
Once, 1 went with Mr. ; once
1 left my name when you were with
me. I could do no more to the best
friend 1 have in the world*
There, remains one matter of com
plaint to which 1 will answer
clearly ts to tlie rest. It is mention
ed as unkind of me, that 1 did not
introduce him to my friends He
will do me the justice to allow that
he never gave the most distant hint
of such an inclination. If he had iu
any manner intimated such a wish to
me, 1 should have thought myself
nignly honored in the office and
would have done ii most willingly.
Hut, to bring a gentleman into a con
nection before I knew that it would
l*e agreeable to iiim, his friends air
enougii acquainted w ith the woi kl
to Understand would be a peice oi
very ill breeding. But, there are
otoer reasons w inch would make it
very improper for me to do so with
out his own very particular desire.?
>. lieu a young memneMs introduced
to pettoou-> of <:? iiHHieration ami w!h?
?tie active in politics, it is thought, ot
course, that he means to ?tct with
tiicui ami it brings some imputation
oi society ou a mans clJuraciiT, if, at
nrwaftishe happens to act other
wise. Mr. , never once inti
ated to me what line of politics he
iiiMided tit take ; but, his having
been |Hoposed io be introduced hy t

in tull < ilicial '.ir< ss, and occupy tin
^?accs nearest the speaker.
me doubt whether connections of an
other kiMil would be pleasing to liim.
I never have in my life, warm as 1
may be supposed to lie in politic*,
endeavoured to sway tiny gentleman's
opinion in [Hilitical matter* ; and 1
;im |>ersuaded that Air. anil his
best friends, will think that 1 have
?ehaved w ith delicacy and propriety
o him in not endeavoring to involve
tiim in political connexions, until he
iiad fidljt determined tlie plan, on
vvhich he was U> act.
1 am sorry that any misunder
standing should make it necessary
? or me to say so much to you on this
ousiness. I am sure 1 have evei
meant to preserve the utmost harmo
ny with Mr. : 1 have constant
ly given him the up|>er hand in every
thing, so much as to druw some
friendly complaints from himself, as
if I had carried my complaisance
too far. Perhaps, if I thought there
was either dignity or use in such
things, 1 too, have my subject of com
plaint. But 1 have had sufficient
exjiermce of the mischiefs of such a
conduct. How can any of Mr.
friends think that I can lie warning
in attention to him or what advan
tage do they propose to Mr. by
letting the world know, that it is his
opinion. Those who affect to oh- |>
*erve this to him are a* little his
friends as mine. But, 1 have done
with the subject and nothing shall
tempt me to resume it.
'The pains 1 have taken in this in
stance, are sufficient to prove, that I
have a respect for that gentleman's
opinion and w ish to stand well in the
opinion of his friends.
Remember me cordially to those
who are kind enough to think of me
with regard. 1 am iucapaiil" of for
getting the favors 1 have received :

Hhip Nancy.?The stat nients
published in Joe papers of yesterday,
relative to the milking in the Gulf
stream, of the ship Nunc-}, cmpt.
foung, turns out to bp" a sheer fabri
cation. e leant, that ntimit xlay?_
light, on Wednesday morning Inst,
a. lire was observed by ouv pilot
boats, and other vessels at that time
in the offing, and shortly after up ex
plosion was heard, like the blowing [
up of a vessel., Immediately after,
as the day dawned, three, boats were
see^, pulling tor the shore; two of
theni in a direction fo^Dewees'g Isl
and, and one took* u m< re northerly
direction. The two first came up to
town shortly after dark on Vt ednes
day evening, and landed their bag
gage, &c. as already stated. The
^Uier has not yet been heard of.?
iRost of those wlio came ashore here
pushed off early the next morning in
the small Ixmt, as they reported, for
Savannah. Tim large boat was left
alongside the vessel where they flrst
landed. 8he is a fine boat, resem
bling the cutter of an armed vessel ;
rows twelve oars, the oar-locks ueat
ly coppered, and has tlie appearance
of having had a , swivel .moiyited ,in
her bow. ; Several shot were found
on board of her. A part of those
*v ho landed tier here, are sujipos

A fragments of the vessel blown
up were seen floating in the offing in
.?esterd.iy, and the day before*
Conjectures are Various to tlie facts
connected with tnis business. Home
suppose tue vessel destroyed to have
l>ecn a Portuguese ship, which had
i?een t ken by a Puiiiot pri\ ateer,
and sent into the CUfsaiteake ; but,
fearful of h?sing her by seizure, the
prize crew were ordered to make foi
