The proclamation contains the t'olllowing paragraph, which is consoling to the friends of humanity : 14 But a short time since both Eastern and Western Greece were under the yoke of Rarbatians; and now, from the environs of Athens to the summit of Macryndros, and even to the gates of Missolonghi, not a single enemy is to be found."

irerc ebout to publish a newspaper in JEREMIAH MAYS, JOHN SETZER.

To the Citizens of Knox. Fellow Citizen AS a candidate to re present Knox county in the Legislature, it was my sincere wish to avoid troubling you in the manner I now do But believe me, that the circulation through the county of a tale upon me, calculated to wound the leelings of a portion of you, renders it necessary for me to address you ; and in doing so, permit me also to state my opin ions on some subjects of great importance to the county. In the Telegraph of last week, there was published an article addressed to certain persons unknown, to whom the epithet 14 The trio' was given, and signed U I was informed by some person, tuheihcr truly or not, is now immaterial, that the Editor of that paper had named me as one of the 'trio,1 and I was irritated I conceived the publication itsclt to be highly improper, and I thought the naming of me as one of the pe sons alluded to, deserving of any term I miht apply to it. In a conversation with Mr. Huitch, inihe presence of Mr Hebcrd only, I stated my opinion of that publication fully, St among oilier observations, said, or intended to

say. in substance, that none but black j

h arted men would Support the publica tion of such articles ab that sitrnt d U

Mr Hebcrd, however, und stood me to

say, tnat ' none but black hearted men would support the election of the Editor

of the Telegraph as your Senator " I his I assure you, was an innocent mistake of Mr. Hcbetd ; and I positively assert, that I never did think of making the observa tion Mr. Heberd supposed me to make which indeed, as coming Irom me, would ' be most absurd and ridiculous ; for many very respectable men. in town and coun- ! try, some of whom are my personal and esteemed friends, support John Ewing's election, and also mine And so soon as I was informed by Mr. Rurtch, vcty shortly after the conversation in his store, of Mr Hcbcrd's understanding of my observation, I instantly made the statement I have ivcn above. The existing dillirulties between John Ewing and myself, are entirely of a per

sonal ivitmo, and should have no i'.fiu enccupon either his, or my cK ction. Rut I fteely and candidly assuic the cmz ns of Knox county, that no private difficulties with an individual associated with me in a public capacity, should ev er influence my public conduct. If elected your Repicscntativc, my duty St u.y interest will be to serve the state and the county, and not to gratify my private feelings good or bud towards any one. II elected, my course will be, to advocate and support every measuie ralculat (d to promote the iuleicstol thepeopte I represent, and to oppose every measure contrary to those interests. I will sincerely, with heart and hand, use every xertion to promote the agricultural, manufacturing & zornmerciul interests ot the state and county ; to accomplish the formation of the Wabash canal, and the highly necessary improvement in the Wabash river; to reduce the state and county taxes and by my whole course, to confirm the confidence of the pr opIe,and todesetvea continuance of their friendship & esteem. During the time I have resided in Knox county, in the course of my professional business, and of my private dealings, I have been placed in immediate contact with very many individuals, poor as well as rich, and to"them all, I boldly appeal ; on their opinion of my integrity and ability, I boldly re!y..Very resprrtful'v. SAMl JUDAH. July 26th, 1827. I do certify, that shortly after the pub lication of the last Telegraph, a conv. rsa tion took place in the store, in my pie sence, between Mr Hurtch and S. Judah, respecting an anicle in the paper, over the signature of U That in the course of the conversation I understood Mr Judah to use these expre ssions" Those who supported John Ewing ought to be icmenibcrcd" and " That there vvasno body in the county who would support him but a few stubborn black hearted fellows in Vinccnnes " And that shortly after the above conversation, I stated my understanding of it to a friend, who im mediately went to Mr. Judah, and Mr. Judah immediately stated, that he had re ferencc to these who could approve of such publications as that signed U, in the Telegraph, and not of those .who would vote for J. Ewing as Senator and that I now am satisfied. Julv 27th, 1827 Ym J HERERO I do certify, that the conversation between S. Judah and myself above mentioned, was entirely relative to the piece signed U, in the last Tele graph and the continuation of such publications, and the election or voters for Senator, was not to my understanding spoken of July 27; h, 1827.
