OCEKN i X G the Treaty pending wuhGreat
Britain, it occurs, tint the unVuied points,
u.dels accommodated, may orc. fion war; am! that
war, although it may he dehred by a lew ur.hapnv
m-‘n> 2nd might enrich lime fpecuhltors in our
towns, would hurt us farmers, who mutt pay the
expc-ncc ; an expence due only to the general wel
fare, and always readily paid, when required by a
majority ot our trustees.
i..t'rur eppef. s tioijcu in tne 1 rea
ty ; and honeliy is the belt p.-diev. Our obtaining
the Weftern Holts without ex pence, and rnnfc quent
1',’ pence with the Indians, would open land ro thole
who think they cannot mile and educate families
nr the prices of land here. Our people ought to be
independent freeholders, not tenants; and ought to
be well educated, to prevent their being dupes to
defpernte party-men.
We have no concern with the fotms of govern
ment in other nations, but to know their abfurdi
ties, and be thankful. We ought, without pafsion,
to hold an even hand towards every oilier nation
all governments whatloever and howloever form•
ed, having bur one motive, v. biih is interift; and
however amiable the caule of mankind is, for which
the French people are contending, we may r< fleer,
that they have every advantage of the propofod
Treaty, equally witli the Britilh, and that, if uni
ted, they will prevail, if not, we can do them no
Much has been faid about not publifiling the
pending treaty. But having delegated to Trultees,
the exercife of that part of our fovertignty which
rcTpecrs Treaties, we cannot alfo retain the cxer
