citizens of the United States, and deferving the
ferrous attention of its Legislature. He thought
the lyaem heretofore purified was radically
wrong--and viewed every meafure which was
not predicated on the wifhes of the people, as
anfwerng but little effect. He wifh:d to fee
that fyfem of defence, which, growing out of
