trbutcd to its example; and so long as it exists,
no Prince will be safe upon his throne; and the
sovereigns of Europe are aware Of it, and they
have determined upon its destruction, and ccmea

decided on the means to accomplish it; and they
will eventually succeed by subversion; rather

be carried into that country; it is and will be
receptacle for the bad and dsaffected popu.a-
ton of Europe, when they are not wanted for
soldiers, or to supply the navies, and the Euro
pean governments will favor such a course.

population, who are so easily excited; and they
will bring with them their principles, and in
nine cases out of ten, adhere to their ancient
an former governments, laws, manners, and
religion, and will transmit them to their posteri-
ty. and in many cases propagate them among
the natives 81.
