Notwithstanding theudea of an

termined are our State Officers, to aft in open
Contempt and Disregard of the People's Iri
dmation$ 4 fhat they infinvate an Obedience
to the Diabolical Hydra by Force of Arms.—
this Style and Language would well suit the
Court of a Befool; but does not apply to Men
who are now, in proper Person, the living
Monuments of their own Liberty ; which Lib
erty they do riot mean to relinquish, without
their own proper Confenf, nor to be fettered
by a Law which they difapproye. There is no
searching of musty Records of ancient Date,
to inform Americans, that they ffiiy? ^ have
Laws to please themselves : No, that Leafed
when they, by their Prowess, Loss of Blood,

left them id Pbffeflion of the 4 abovementioned
Forts. The Commiffafahft htepjreatißg
with ' them,and i^is said Today they have come

here ever since on ail Vessels, so that we are not

able, as yet -to ger any Sarisfaaibn whatever.
It is impossible to conceive the wretched Situ

as INDEPENDENT as Americans.
The French Armies have captured Mw, af

they displayed the utmost Bravery and Wis
