on
RetoiSe.f, That committee be appointed to
enquire whether any, and if any, what additi-
onal force is neceflary to the military eitablilh-
ment of the u. States.
He obferyed that he was one of thofe who
in 1902 were of opinion that the prefent militia
ry eitablilhment was fufficieut for the then ex-
iltiug fate of the nation. AT that time we were
at peace with the Indians, of courfe few men
were neceilary for the weaern frontier, and at
every point of the Atlantic fhores, we were
prepared for refitance by tire ltrength of our
miitia-that the late requirement OF territory,
gave us an expoded frontier, which could not
be fuccored fpeediIy by the militia of the uni
on he therefore conceived an addition to the
army as indifpenGbly necefary.
At meeting of the Inhabitants eftbe CITY OF

The committee according TO order, madea re-

unanimously agreed to an Addreis TO be pre-

appointed committee to prefent the fame
Whereupon,
Rejofved nuaniniogly, That although the in
habitants of this city are deprived of any parti-
cipatien in the elective franchiie by conRitu-
tional arrangement, yet feeling an identity OF
intereft with their fellow citizens generally nd
CONTIGUOUS that the national interef, happinefs

the Preident of the United States comply with
the requef of the many respectable bodies who
have addrefled him to nand as candidate on
the enfuiug election, for the Chief Magifracy of
