The lavish manner in which rank has
hitherto been bestowed on these gentlemen
will certainly be productive Of one or the
other of these two evils, either TO make us
dcspicnbie IN the eyes Of Europe OR
BECOME A MEANS OF POURING
THEM IN upon US like a torrent and ad-
ding to our present burden.
But IT is neither the expenses nor trou.
BILE Of them, most dread. There is an
evil more extensive in lis nature and fatal
in its consequences to be apprehended, and
tina, is, the driving Of oil our own officers
Of the service, and throwing no, only
our own army, bu, our military councils
entirely into the hands OF foreigners.
The officers, my dear sir, on whom you
must depend for the defence Of this cause,
distinguished by length of service, aud mil
tary merit, will no, submit much, If any
longer, to the unnatural promotion OF men
over them rho hare nothing more than a
HHle piauSibilify, unbounded pride and
ambition. and d perseverance IN apptica-
