the American character fesms d to be faft emery
ing rom barbarifm and ignorance, when Spa
nth avarice defolated thele fair regions and
crnihed in an infant every embryo OF American
grandeur. 1t will not be romantic to indulge
belief, that if the oftheie empires had not
been fatally topped; ifthe genius of America
had not been chained at the feet of ambition,
aud immollted on the un,Iallowed affairs os in
atable cupidity If her fous had not been bu-
ried in mines of hidden wealth, which their
prosd conquerors, by a jutt dcitiny, were DOOM
ed TO receive a. a mortal potion III the bottom of
their country; ifinftead of this, America had
been permitted to grow without interruption,
from the vital principles which were implanted
in her coaftitution; it will not be chimerical to
believe, that two centuries would have given
her a respectable hation among the nations of
the earth. Her fields might have fmiled under
the hand ofcultivation, and rung with the fong
ofjacund labor her cities might have fwarm-
ed with ikilful artiiicers; her har5ors might
have contained the fhips of every nation,
treighted with the tribute of every cline, from
grant fpices of the fouth ; while fcience, FUR
reying the whole vsriegated fcene, might have
explored new iources of PROPERTY, or inpart-
ed the elevated truths of philofophy. But a.

behold atrghtfu deiart, where no verdant fpot
