Aided by wife and able politicians, the true interefls of the union were defcried; and, happily for America, the principal part of the puhiick debt was met by per. mament funds. It is._.howeiver, matter of deep regret, that in but too many inriiances, and in this fiate in par- A ticular, the honourawhieaiierters of American Rights have retrtztined tmrecempenfed by that t:ot1nt.ry which owes its irideperidence ta their vaiour difplayed upon the tented field.

An enertgetickp government, producing a reiitrrefiiion ofpuhlictk credit; cornmended univerfal confidence, routed individual exertion, and» in the fttccefs of thefe exertions, gave I itability to private credit.

The jealopufy of Gpreab-Britain, and rapacity of France, were then awaited up. Ourtmaritime defence was not even in embryo; with impunity, therefore, were the prupe;r- ties of our citizetis plundered, the fources of our rev-— ermes diminiflted; and iefitlécd were the honour and 2'?1de_;D87’!rCh‘f’I2:Ct’:' of 0Ll1"_ cotmtry and govemmzent. pThe wrath of Americans was kindled, indignation burned“ in etrery'brezt{i..
