Mr. Bomar Again.
Jamibos.s. C,
October 2ud 1878.
Mr. Kditor :
Before mo is Mr. John L?. Moorer's
reply, to my statement of the 1 sit li
iiist , inn! 1 do not hesitate to assert,
that I believe, every intelligent,
reasonable, uud just citizen, of
Orangc.burg County, will agree with
tue; that for coiubiim.ion of ignorance,
mid erroneous representation, that
the production is self condemning,
und his effort, to sustain his argu
ments, proves in purl, :i miserable,
and shameful failure, mul like iho
first, of his statesmnn-liko nspiration,
can bo substantially pronounced,
lo'titiim fid mi n,
Mr. Editor, upon that satin; plat
form I .stund, as I conscicnteously
believed, from the first, in defence of
honor, principle, and justice, and I
defy, any attempt, to deprive me of
the position, by malicious insinua
tions of others, to displace mo. I
will brave any, and every .sacrifice,
rather than swerve from the path of
moral rectitude and right. And 1
believe, he who takes this manly,this
noble stand, will have the respect of
the truly wise and good among men;
and can well despise the censures or
thosncer8 of all beside. And even if
bis fellow-men endeavor to condemn
him, by inventing false statements,
he bus what is far hotter titan their
coudetnuuiion, the satisfaction of a
good conscience, the approbation of
Uwl.
He who makes his little self the
centre ol conspicuouoiess, by making
attacks upon the innocent ami un
offending; and prompted, as I believe,
with no other motive, thtiu to curry
popular favor, and distinction. 1 say
such characters, uro undeserving the
confidence of the people, who have
the interest, of the County at heart.
Mr. Loiter, io replying tj Mr.
Mooror'a article, I will take up his
points, us they present themselves
bet?re me; and when he is entitled to
justice, I will utrieily endeavor to
give him all the justice, that he may j
merit.
If Mr. Moor er intends, n- he said,
to accord mo justice, why has he not
dene it ? and why docs he not come to
the point in a direct line, and not
travel in a circle to reach i!. While
he may quibble about terming "Ld-I
gar" legally nnnnymou , and al ?
though I differ with him in his opin- [
ion, I am willing to yield tho point, j
when he convinces me that 1 am in
error, yet in common parlance, .10 I
in this connection, "Ldgar," is cor
La in I}* not anonymous, liven grain
ing, if Mr. Moorer is correct, to 1 ;
certain extent, and air hough, tie p t
sistently argues that the spun, in '
which he roplyed to my article, win }
prompted, by being signed Kdgn:','' j
alone Why has he over looked, i
'some of the main point;, in my c im ]
munieation, bearing toy tall sign.1
lure.
Mr. Moorerseems lb '>?' v iry chary,
about the fair fame, and the golden
record, of Oraugoburg County; and !
seems to think, it may bo eo.itami j
I nated, when brought into contact,
\ with my iuflueuce; but 1 think, if be !
I Will give the subject !ii.-> uudevitlod
attention, and consider the purity of !
the moiivis which actuated the said i
sentiments, he wiliackuowle Ige "in
reason," that he t" >, is in "error/'
1 could not admit any t'..; ig '-.>, i
than my innocense of designing <> j
mislead, corrupt, or i. jure, in any j
way, the Democracy of Oruhguburg i
County, or any other; consequently,
J did niuniy admit the truth, whinh
would bo very unreasonable, in a just
person, to prove any l,h?ug less, than
completu satisfaction.
When wo see, how sedulously, Mr.
Moorer is retard tug tho interests of
L'-'m :< iry ]^ '^dL^^j^J^^ ?>>'?'??' sup
po.se, thatlu?^^^ff^"frT*r";'. tVio" f
benefits of one of the Governor's ap- |
pniulinents himself; and when that j
auspicious day arrived, ami he reach is
lorth his hand to pluek the rieh I
Irui.?ago. then only, will bo pro- 1
nouncethe record golden, until then,
it .-till will retain, to him, its "sil
very" gloss.
Another cause ol disquietude, to I
Mr. Moorer, is the "bad ellecis" that j
may anise from "LdgarV state
ments; now, I can notsav, who has
been tinctured,but this 1 helicve,tiiat I
Mr. Moorer himself, has. been the
( greatest victim id' all.
Ibis being a free country, entitled 1
Mr. Meiner, or anyone, in having
their own opinion; and 1 am willing !
to leave, as he says, my communica
lion to the impartial consideration, j
of tho public, ami if it impressosimy j
countrymen, with any thing like ' j
political wiif pulling piece;" I will J
submit to their verdict, l! i under- j
stand, Mr. Moorer, ho denies any
vuieo in the matter, if this is so ho '
certainly iickuo.vie lgc3 wearing "fa ?? i
plumage;" !'or bis. Mr. John L. j
Moorer'a voice, with the exception 01 j
oi.e other, is the only voice, I have
heard, in response Ij iiiy article.
I 8tiM maintain, that from tbestylc 1
and language, in which Mr.Moorer
expressed himself, I wa- billy justi- j
?ed iu believing, that his object, was I
to strike Major Watson O'Caiu, i
through ine. 1 will endeavor to J
prove my reason, for so construing it,
by quoting a ease, in tin; same style,
and upon tho same principle, and I
am certain, that any one 'in rpason,"
will admit, 1 dr? w a clear, and justi
fiable decision, of the matter.
Now suppose, Mr. kalilor, that the
four mentioned, prominent gen:le
inen, and Mr. Moorer, were on a
visit to my bouse, and when dinner
was announced, 1 invite.! the said
four gentlemen, addressing the ni by
their name.-; to the other gentleman,
J bestowed no attention upon. Would
Mr. Moorer, or any man of common
sense, and proper raiting, lor a
moment, be ignorant of tin: slight,
would not the very fact,oI my loiv
ing him unnoticed,sufficient evidence,
to condemn nie ami justify, him in
feeling, that ho was considered by
me, as unworthy of being noticed; or
ranked with the oilier gentletneu, was
not it a hint, ami act, enough to con

Mr. I'M i tor, I have boon credibly
informed, ilia' Mr Moorer's article,
ma le its first nppjarauoe, at the ti n >.
of the Convention, in a printed form;
and was distribni id among tho mom
bora of that body. I will do him tho
justioo, and acknowledge, I commit
ted, what a large majority, of t'uu
pco|do did. an "err n\"
Melhinks, I behold, au other im
age, reflected upon tho mirror; but
Ibis time, it is not Mr. Moorer him
self, but l.i.-i bolt-mile-.- "ha'-f-bu.d el,"
thai stand* out in bold relief; but
certainly, in great dangbrj of falling
to pieces, without a "foundation.
It eortaihl y behooves, ?a all, to
consider about hut. [lereaflcr^and

strew tie; way with obstacle?; and
erect barriers, of d la don and ''error,
to place lulso estimates upon tlio ac

all such efforts Human like.thoy fa'1,

I ;'.ni perfectly.as'onished, Mr. Edi
tor, at Mr. Moorer, in m iking such
an absurd remark, as Ii ?dnes in cl>j
iiig hi-- pitiful article. 1 simply st no,
?that Mr. Moorer, and myself,had a
conversation on t tic eyouing oi too 4
21 si iii.-t,7JB^o:im:.-; in. traten ing too "
arguments, existing between us; and
again, in Oraugeburg,on la-t Tna.-s
day. lie approached the Hubjeot
him.-. If, win. h L can prove, by two
nierehanls, on inaiu street, in whose
st >:e 1 was, at the time he requested
to sneak with tue. Mr. Moorer re
marked, to tue at Jamison, that ho
intended replying to my statcmeut,
an 1 do mo justice, and again, in
Oraugeburg he tohl me, he had re
plied, in n mild manner, and did me
jusiieo, au 1 that he. wanted mo to
read it, and do him justice. I prom
ised to do so I perused his communi
cation carefully; ami came to this
conclusion, that, Mr. Moo t or's effu
sion of ignorance, i- justice, I d coli no
his ever administering his style of
justice, lotue. 1 am willing to pluoa
the two articles, in the hand ol any
sincere man, a id let him judge, who
has been more just, Mr. Moorer or
myself. I wish >lr. Moorer, to under
stand, that "Ed..ar Oeddings ?o
niar," has been taught always, to ad
here to the truth, and endeavor to
prove siucere, to all pronmyj. I have
never entertained any other senti
ments, than wlia? T expressed to the
public through the columns of tho
UrangoburgTiMEi, and lam certain,
that nothing, i ever said to Mr.
Moorer, or any one, that could justi
fy him, in insinuating, that I would
uphold him in his p ?sitiou hot*ire tho.
\) ople; ami prove myself, thereby, 30
unmanly to houor and principle, by
retracting what I feel, is my right to
believe. 1 wish the public, to under
stand, that 1 suu no hypocrite, this
seems to bo the impression. Mr.
Moorer wishes, to leave behind him.
i Uc same, identical stand, L took in
public, is lite only one, 1 over
professed to maiuta n in privato, aud
to those sentiments, 1 shall adhere,
until I am convinced, to the contrary.
What, au idea in Mr. Moorer, for
supposing, that L would go to his
h ?uso, to reply to a public contro
versy. 1 think, J resorted to tho
proper channel to sottle the matter.
Hut the most egregious"orror"of
all.i-- Mr. Moorer's precipitate flight,
from tho field, and in his retreat, as
the excellent Sheridan said, "ho
leaves his character behind him "
