ted world, must be the sincere prayer
OF every honest man and good republican.
But, at all events, we should be prepared
IN every contingency to defend our rights,
with manly firmness, against every nation
under heaven: and, as our forefathers in
l776, were willing to undergo every priva-
ton and inconvenience that wantonlv cru
el enemy could inflict, rather than to sub
NIT to the unjust pretensions of the British
parliament to tax them without the consent
of their representatives, let us now prove
to the world that we have not degenerated,
but viii, on similar occasion, act as they
did determined never to do injustice
ourselves, and never to submit to it from
others.

Not only every public servant, but every
private individual, ought, in all matters

and regard as his perpetual motto, Con

ought most religiously to hold himself So
iemnly bound calmly and faithfully to dis
charge the duties which he has undertake

whatever. If personal disapDointments
shall ensue from this plain and iustifablc
course, he ought individually to feel the
same, and no other kind of regret, than
ought to be felt, by an honest and disinte-
rested witness, whose testimony might af-
tect another in any of the important con-
Germs of fortune, fame, or life.
