!; 10 keep the power of the United States
within Its prefent limits. Great Britain
hertelfis not in acondition to form Mill
tary e&abliihment upon terra frma, capa-
bic Of infuring the rreteniions and rights
of Europe upon thar part OF the world.
1t is true that the Government Of the
Union has promiied to other nations to re-
main within its limits. But do we not
know, that in politics the execution
Of thsie kind of promaes remains always
subordinate TO multitude of events and
circumstances which cannot be toreleen !?
And befdes, though the Federal Govefn-
ment ihould renounce for century all
fyaem of aggrandiiement, is it nothing
70 occupy a territory fertile and exten-
FIVE enough for the fuprogf Of lco mil
lions of inhabitants : Is it nothing TO
rule over 900 leagues OF maritime coat
to have SO lies under the eye and hand,
TO rain on the Atlantic, and to fee ilfelf
ieperated from the South Sea only by ia
wage nations ready to receive the yoke
from whatever power fhall appear before
them in arms What means this projeet
Of civilizing the Indian tribes; and 10
whom would thele people belong but to
the Governments who takes upon itfelf to
polih them, and which has no rival to
fear, being i,iclf alone eitabliihed in the
centre Of the new world
Let it not then be imagined that the
plan of uniting LouiGana to the dominion
Of the French Republic is dictated by am
bition, or that it is part Of a pure and i'm-
pie lyfem of aggranditemenr. The pre-
fervation of the European pofefions in
the Welt Indies has rendered this plan ne
ceIary and the interea Of all The mari
time powers of Europe is,to fee the arons-
eft amongf them form an efablihmens
on the Continent of America, efficiently
impoGng and important to ierve as coun.
terpeiie to the domination of the United
States.
