ln* i T cannot vote for the ref rfutious. So long
as hutnan nature c< ntinuer w hat it is, and‘ha?
always been., we r. r.v naturally eupeft that
three rival places in thetfitvation of Alexandria,
Waffilngton and George-town, when mvin«
allegiance to, and protected bv the immediate
jur:fd,flion ofthree djftinfi independent fove

than when under ike immediate control of the
famefovereign authority difpafed to dojuifice
and render pvoteflion e-jurd.'y and imi artiu iv

ithi* city to dwindle and cr.ms to nothing, a re
