But their anticipated schemes Of greatness
and success were of short duration. Before
their messengers had reached the seat of
government, the harbingers of peace had ar
rived Covered with confusion and disgrace,
they suddenly forgot their lofty pistensions,
and sought only to avoid the finger of scorn.
Thus are the inscrutable ways Of Providence
exemPlified in humbling and chastsing the
perverseness and obliQuity of man. No more
will the fell spectre of civil ccmmoton stalk
through our land. BY the annunciation of AN
honorable peace, the demon of civil war. and
the spirit OF disunion, are consigned to the
grave OF mfamy, where they will sleep in
undisturbed repose, till some future Henry
shall sound their resurrection.

dictionary war have been handed down to us
with reproach it a recollection of the deeds
OF Arnold exCites our involuntary disgust and
detestation, how will the men who in the late
contest have indirectly aided the enemy, and
attempted to impede our country in her rapid
march to glory and renown, escape the bitter
animadversions of an indignant posteri-
y?
But, fellow-citixens, although you cannot
forget, you VIII forgive their ALTERATIONS
Under the auspices of your constitution, the
tree OF liberty fourishes with rich and some
times redundant luxuriance. But although
they are Irving monuments of the indulgence
OF your laws, and the clemency of your civil
institutions, and are entitled to impunty for
the past, and future protection in the full fru-
ition OF life, Liberty and property, yet they
have little claim to the confidence of indepen-
dent freemeD.
