country has too many men, such as those
whom now see around me, some Uf
whom accompanied me through the pine
forests Of Georgia and the. Carolinss, for
its quiet TO DO lightly disturbed, Michi-
gan herself alone, and certainly when
backed up by Illinois, Indiana and Wis.
aonsin, could raise an army large enough
10 lot only repel but crush anys force or
power that should dare infringe upon
onr borders.
Our national affairs will shortly bs
restored TO q safe and Prepayment basis
Congress. when il has finished certain,
amount Of talk, as all popular assemblies
must, will speedily settls all questions.
A year ago, you were anxious for the
army which / had the honor TO com.
mand. It had disappeared from your
sight; yon heard nothing from it, and

going. Exercise equal faith now. andj
