il will disappoint their hopes. Democracy will hate
Il, because il is the work of Federalism, and is base in
itself. Federalism will desert it, because, Instead Of
Dopularr,y, il will bring them odIum. The friends OF
ibe Constitution will curse il, because II IS the viola

sill curse il, because it lays the foundation for a new
national debt. The people will curse It, because II
uives them nothing, and takes much from them in taxes
upon necessaries. Virtue and patriotism Will abhor II,
because it undertakes 10 debauch the people and the
