the people will readily unite in support Of those
whose effnrts sprirs from iisn Ell dnsirn
promote their happiness; TO preserve the Fedora
and State Governments within their respective
orbits; to cultivate peace with ell the nations Of
tho earth, on Just and honorable grounds; to ex
act obedience the laws; to entrench liberty anc
property in full security and, consulting the mos
riold economy, to abolish all useless expenses.
