Slate Senafor.—In another part of tltis pa-
per will be found a conttiitiiiication from an
old Republican recommending Srim’l Tweedy
Esq. ofDanbury,as a candidate for the office
of State Senator, in opposition to Judge Fair-
irhild, whose name appears on the Regular
Ticket. We have reason to believe that this
recommendation accords very generally with
the sentiments oftlie Republicans throughout
the county. Probably the only objection that
will be raised to it in the niinds of any will
relate to the iinpolicy of breaking in upon the
usages of the party, rather than to the inexpe-
diency ofa change of ‘candidates, for all who
are at-qiiainted with certain late political
inovements deem a change desirable.

Whenever any individual, in his anxiety to
obtain the honors and enioltinients of office,
loses sight of his owtt dignity ofcliaractet-,and
forgets to pay the respect he owes to the wisli-
cs and interests of the people, from whom he
received whatever of distinction he tnay pos-
sess, it is time that he be permitted to retire
to the walks of private life. No titan whose
head has become dizzy by a constant loolr.z'n.g'
tip to the eminence to which he aspires, or .1
loolciizg down front that to which he has at"-
taiucd, ought to be too heavily burdened with
the responsibilities and cares which are ever
incident to the station of a servant oftlie peo-
ple. Nor ought any person whose only view
ofevery object is through the key-hole of sel-
fislmess and am_bition,to be suffered toenjoy a
iiioment’s gratification of his unhallowed in-
clinations, lest his vision become still further
contracted, and he be rendered ever after in-
capable of distinguishing between personal
advantage and public weal, and totally blind
to every interest oftlie ptiblic, the direct ten-
dency of which is not to advance that ofliis
owti. VVliether such is the present condi-
tion of'i\Ir. Fairchild we are not about to say.
The ptiblic must decide. But ifit be it is e-
qiiallv his misfortune as his fault, for be alone
will stiffer the consequences. Fortunately for
the people the talent of the county is not all
centered in one man. There are many who
can supply his place if he be found wanting.

It is never our wish to injtire the feelings or
reputation ofany man,nor will we do it unless
the public good require it,nor even then unless
the exliibition of plain truths have that effect.
—It is not our fatilt if a candidate for public
honour cannot hear the simple truth related
without injury to his feelings and character.
But if we were disposed to make an unneces-
sary or even malicious attack of this nature,
Mr. Faircliild is the last man who could with
decency coiiiplain.—His own course in this
respect, and especially that which he l-ias
pursued of late, forbids any resort to sticli a
mode ofrepelling them. Complaints against
personal attacks come with a poor grace from
those who use no other weapons themselves.
A mart who can hazard such assertions as are
found in the articles signed Fabius, in the
Register, Publiiis in the Herald, and what
best suits the piirpose,in a host of other papers
——wlio can make such insinuations as are
found in two articles in the last Courier, both
written by the satne person, and doubtless by
the same untiring scribbler who has spoiled
so manv sheets of paper in advocating a cer-
tain object—and who can resort to such meas-
ures as getting up a private caucus to defeat
the election of an individual enjoying the full
confidence oftheRepublicanparty-——canclaim
littt little exemption from personal attacks, be
they ever so severe, for if they are a justifia-
ble resortin any instance, in this they are not
unjustifiable. ,

_'1‘liat_l_1r. Fairchild has lost the confidence
of the Republican party is undeni-able——and
ifit be not for stifiicient reasons he is much
slandered. Those, however, who have wit-
nessed his union and fellowship in political
matters with the most bitter enemies of the
party, anti have been acquainted with the mo-
tives of all his movements, will be slow to
believe that it is not justly forfeited. It cannot
"therefore be expected that he will receive the
support of the party at the ensuing election
so long as any other man of more inflexible
materials can be found in his stead. Such a
man is Mr. Tweedy. He is not only firm in
bi. frinciples, open in his conduct, atid mod-
est in his pretensions, but possessed of a judg-
ment atid discrimination well befitting a tiieni-
ber of a body whose proceedings should ever
be characterised by dispassionateness and
wisdom. In the spring of 189.4 he was noiii-
inated for the office to which heis now recom-
mended, but being at that time a member of
the Legislature be for that reason declined to
be held up, and Mr. Farchild was thereupon
placed upon the Ticket. Last spring he was
again notiiinated in County meeting for the
same office, be receiving 12 votes while Mr.
Fairchild had but two. At the solicitations
however of some of Mr. Fairchild’s friends in
other counties another meeting was field and
Mr. F.’s name substituted for that of Mr.
Tweedy. These facts shew that in recom-
mending Mr. Tweedy to the support of the

~ freemen of this state at the eiisuiiig,electioii,
we are but repeating the twice expressed sen-

. tinieiits of the Republican members of the
legislature from this county ; and having done
this we willingly leave the subject in the hands
of the people, wishing it to be distinctly un-
derstood that we solicit no man’s accordance
with our opinions unless he finds tlietn foiind-
ed in reason; for no individual cait do either
himself or countryjustice who does not in all
cases act according to the dictates of his own
'-judginent, when thatjutlginetit is properly
ciilighteiied.

Mr. Bunce, ofthe American Eagle, gives
the following as sotite of the reasons why he

-,_\has not published in his paper the articles on

‘* the subject ofDistricting uhich have appear-
ed in the Register under the signature of
Fabius.

“These essays of Fabius were deemed ex-
ceptionable, first, because they, without giv-
ing sufficient proof, or any proof, but a naked
assertion, assumed it as a fact, that the Seria-
gois nominated were hostile to these meas-
ures; and secondly, for their denunciations
against those Senators, by declaring the Sett-
aio must be changed; tltiis sliewing a deter-
mined, inveterate hostility to the men, under
the pretence, without proof, ofthcir hostility
to that measure.

These nutnbers were also exceptioiiable i_n
other respects; they exliibited too mticli ea-
geiiiess, positiveness, atid passion ; atid seem-
pzl to deduce coitclusioiis which did not ne-

cessarily or naturally follow .fiotn the given‘
premises, arguments, and tesiilts from facts
not established or proved. Such, for instance,
as that the old Republican party were for dis-
tricting the State; therefore the Republican
party now are for increasing the Senate. A
large majority of the last House of Assembly
were for districting ; therefore a large majori-
ty ofthe people are now for it.

This kind of reasoning, which seems to be
his, may be satisfactory to sotne, but to others
it is not iiitich more so than had he have said,
“It is cloudy, and therefore rains.”

The editors ofthe Hartford Times speak of
the Fairfield Caucus as the fair-child of a
woit.ld~be-Judge of the Superior Court, and
assures the liepublicans of this County that
tlieproceediiigs of that meeting will meet a
cold reception in their section-ofthe state.

Jllr. B’lL71I.‘€, of the Eagle, says that some of
the gentlemen who attended the meeting, in
order to avoid discovery, “left their horses
some ways back front the village or Court
I-Iouse,and came in on foot by different ways.”

Mr. Ingersoll made a speech of considera-
ble length in Coiigiess oit the 6th instant iti
opposition in fate to the amendment to the
Constitution plop ised by Mr. Mt.-Duffie, and
on the 8th Mi‘. Everett of .‘v'Iass. spoke three
hours against the resolutions. The House
was filled with auditors on the latter day, and
the editor oftlie Nat. Journal says—“ taken
as a wltole the speech of Mr. Everett was as
great an ’eiI'ort ofthe ltuinaii tniiid as we have
witnessed on the door of Congress."

The late .-lfail Robbery.-—-It appears from
an advertiseiiient oftlie agent oftlie General
Post Office that the robbery conimitted on the
southern mail on the 1st inst. was more ex-
tensive than any ever before effected. Be-
tween two and three bushels ofletters are mis-
sitig, cotnprising all the letters from the states
east of Philadelphia destined for Washington
and the states south and west ofthat ciiy.—-
These letters were put tip at Philadelphia in
a cotton bag, tied and sealed, and eticlosed in
3 lenihern porttnanteau, locked as usual.-
This Portmanteau was delivered at Washing-
ton apparently untonclied, but upon "opening
it the letter bag was discovered to have been
out about 26 inches and its contents taken out.
No doubt is entertained that tlie- person who
took this mail opened the portmantean by a

key, and as the coach it as not stopped on the
road, atid as the portinanteau is carried
under the feet of the drivers, suspi-

cions very naturally have fallen upon some of
and three oftliein, together with some
up-,9, persons, have been apprehended.—-
There is said to be reason_ for believing that
only um pefgons were activcfyeiigaged in_the
robbery,and that it was couiniittetl near l\’ew-

port, Delaware.

them,

Mr, Benedicf—-I find in your paper of the
938th ulr. a piece dated Stamford, (Wl-llCl’l.yOll
think ought to have been dated Stratforsd, and
[am for good reasons of the same opttiioti,)
containing more contradictions, tltiplictty,aiid
absm-dme5,ilmn I have ever witnessed, in any
publication, almost whatever. Among other
things, he asks why it is necessary to drop
Judge Hill front the nominatioii ? Becaiise,is
his reply, it is necessary to district the State.
Now he had previously asserted in the same
piece, that he did not pretend to _know the
sentiments of‘-fudge Hill on this subject: how
then could he with any truth or propriety,say,
that it was necessary to drop him, because it
was necessary to district the State. Cap a
map in the same breath that he declares he
does not know the sentiments ‘of Judge Hill
on the subject, declare that it is iiecessary to
drop him because he is opposetl to districting
the state? He who is capable ofiiialting two
such contradictory declarations. in the. saute
piece, must either have very little honesty
himself, or be so destitute of coriiin0t1S€l_lS‘3i
as to stippose the public capable of being tin-
posed upon by such shallow artifice and false-
hood. The fact is. Judge Hill is not opposed
to the principle oftlistricting—yet, as the sub-
ject lias never been before the Senate to act
upon definitively, he has never given a vote
upon the merits of the question—but from
what I know of the sentiments ofJudge Hill,
I know that he is not only not opposed to the
principal ofdistricting, but I also know, that
whenever the good people of_C0unecticut de-
liberately determine to district the st-ate,'he
will, ifcalled upon to act in a public capacity,
cheerfully acquiesce in the measure. In com
meiiting siill farther upon the remarks of his
adversaries, the author of the piece in qties—
tion, goes on, in relation to the caucus,to state
_u 1, would appear by your paper, that Dan-
hury '-'laS represented but by one man, and
that man an alien from the Republicanranks.
Who that inati was I know not. lVhat! not
know who that man was, when he was told
in the paper to which he alludes in terms ini-
possible to be mistaken; and when also, as
we have every reason to believe, he was pres-
ent at the cations, and saw him? Not know
who hewas! \Vhy assert this? Was it because
he was asbanied of his cotiipany P‘ Or w as it
because he feared if it was known that such
kind of characters coiuposetl the caucus, it
could not be made to answer his purpose ?—
Tlie fact is, as has already l)t"8n stated in the
politic papers, the iiieeintg was got up in a
clandestine niaiiuer——ito:ie were invited to
attend except those wliuin it was previously
known. by the priiicipal tiiatiager would ap-
swcr his purpose; while the Republicans in
the immediate iieighborliood of the meeting,
and generally tlirongliout the County, knew
nothing of it until it was over. And I must
confess for one, I feel indignant that such a
meeting should be got up by such means, to
make out iioininations, and regulate the polit-
ical concerns oftlie state-— not as is ostensibly
pretended, for patriotic ptirposes, but for indi-
vidual'aggrandizement, and the gratification
of personal enmity. The iiioveroftliis thing
is a tiian whose object is uniformly known to
be self-a man who sacrifices only on the al-
ter of mammon. This tnan, by those who
knoiv him, was never suspected of being ca-
pable of so far divesting liiniselfof personal
considerations as to devote liiiuself in any
important measure of his projection, exclu-
sively to the public good. The caucus is a
Federal measure, and the principal actors in
it, expect in case of victory, a stipulated re-
ward. The old maxim is,divide and coiiqner.
Federalists will vote for the ticket made out
at the caucus; and ifthe Republicans can be
divided, and a part of them itiduced to vote
for the same, the object will be accomplished.
Rouse then, Republicans, from your lethargy!

The enemy is in tile camp, and trying to de-
ceive and delude you‘, by themost insidious
artifices. Republicanism is down unless you
rouse and act with vigor in this emerge-iirzy.

just been commenting upon,where the author
says——“ Among the most for-vard to cry liav
0c, and let loose the dogs of iimvspaper iiivec—
tives, are a set ofyoung Federalists, sudden-
ly transmitted in the crucible of Toleration,
into full grown patriots.”—Wlio could have
made such an assertion except an old Feder-
alists or one who (to make use of the saute
figure) had been suddenly traiistniited in the
crucible of anialgamation, into a full grown
Federalist? Look at it my friends: who can
this man be, who (after such profuse profes-
sions cf regard for the public good,) has had
the inipndenco, the efiiontery, the iinbltisliiiig
audacity, to charge it as a crime upoit young
Fedaralists, or in short any order or detiom
ination ofiiien, that they have becotne Toler-
ationsts? Is this Republicanism think you?
Is a man who is capable of stich assertions to
be stipported by Republicans.
fl Republican Qflhe Old School..

Mn. BENEDICT,--Tile Republicans of the
County ofFairfield, so far as I am acquainted
with their sentiments on the subject, and ihni
is pretty exteitsively, are determined to vote
for SAMUEL TWEEDY, of Daii')ui'y, for
State Senator in the place of Robert Fair-c/it'ld.
Mr. Tweedy was nominated last spring by
the Repiiblicaiiiiepresetitatives oftlie County
ofFairfield at Hartford, in the place of Mr.
Fairchild:—one reason for this was an opin-
ion generally prevailing among the members,
that Mr. Faircliild hadjoiiied the Federalists.
After that, at a subsequent meeting, which
was but partially attended by the Republican
members, but by all the Federalists, (with a
single exception,) Fairchild’s name was sub
stituted on the nomination for Mr. Tweedy.
The Republicans think it the most proper to
vote for Mr. Tweedy, whose notnination is
considered as a more free, full, and unbiased
expression oftlie public sentiment respecting
the candidates, than the noiiiination of Mi.
Faircltild.—Besides, Mr. Fairchil(l’s late at-
teinpt at disoi'ganization——-his arts to divide
the Republican party, and insure the triumph
of Federalism—in their Upllll-‘)l) calls loudly
for such a course of proceeding.
