ARTICLE. v.


In a technical sense constitutional gov
eminent under cur benign supreme law
of the land, dates from March 4, 1889. In
an actual sense, the salutary supremacy
of the constitution, to use the words of
Washington, was not felt until after
April 80, 1888, the day when the hero OF
heroes took the oath of office at the COR
ner of Broad and Wall streets, New
York.
The laggard patriots of the house o.
representatives found present bare quo
rum of thirty member on April l. On
April enough of the lettering senators
arrived to enable the first congress to
organize and proceed to the business OF
inaugurating the first chief of state. Prior
to the first presidents departure from
Mt. Vernon he learned that schemes on
the part of Great Britain and Spain
threatened the internal peace of the
Union. The Spanish authorities at New
Orleans long held out as bait the free
navigation of the Mississippi to the
up-river inhabitants if they would cut
loose from the United States. Lord Dor
chester, governors general of Canada
was suspected of promising helping
hand to the frontiersmen who might
feel disposed to seize New Orleans. Ham
ilton gave the British agent in New YORK

mouse, which for desperate courage and
sagaclous bravery equals any like de-

The men reserved their fire until the
Indians came within ten PAGES; then,
having three rifles each, the women
loaded the rifles handing them to the
men loaded, so that continuous fire
was kept up, rendered more CALLING by
number of women both loading and fir
ing with the men. The children were
kept busy raising hats upon sticks be-
fore the most open portfolios, which drew
the Indian fire AS certain death was
the end of defeat the price on each life
was placed at the maximum rate. Cas-
-tleman, Rains, Mrs. Buchanan, Joseph
Brown and the relentless Robertson are
the only undying names on record to
preserve the memory of the most brill
liant defense ever made against savage
warfare. Robertson snorted like the
war horse he was at the sound of battle,
and the boom of his one swivel gun
warned the Indians that he would be
on them at daylight. They retreated with
celebrity, dragging their wounded and
dead
To the philosophic reader the connec-
ton Of all this with the acquisition of
Louisiana is plain. Had not the eastern
tributaries of the Mississippi been red
dened with the blood of brave men, and
had not a. line of states on the east side
of that river been gained and retained
through this bravery and loyalty, and
by the firmness, foresight and wisdom of
our first administration in preventing the
Spanish from separating large slice Of
territory from US on the settled side of
the dividing river, we should not have
gotten over to the unsettled west side so
soon as we did. Far reaching events
are usually preceded by significant ap-
proaches to them.

to let each cabinet officer and public man
make known himself his attitude on the
extension of our territory. On July il,
1880, Mr.. Jefferson, referring to the spirit
ed preparations of England now SEEM
ingly bent on war with Spain, writes
to James Monroe: 'Other symptoms in
dictate a general design on all Louisiana
and the two Floridas. What tremendous
position would success in these objects
place us in! Embraced from the st. Croix
to St. Marys, on the one side by their
possessions, on the other by their fleet,
we need not hesitate to say that they
would soon find means to unite to them
all the territory covered by the ramifica-
lions of the Mississippi" Just one month
later President Washington writes to
Lafayette: Gradually recovering from
the distresses in which war left us, pa
tiently advancing in our task of civil
government, unentangled in the crooked
politics Of Europe, wanting scarcely any
thing but the full navigation of the Mis-
sissippi (Which we must have and as
certainly shall have as we remain ma
tom, have supposed that, with the I'M
deviating exercise of a just, steady and
prudent national policy, we shall be the
gamers, whether the powers Of the Old
World may be in peace or war, but more
especially in the latter case. = Should
war take place between Great Britain
and Spain, l conceive, from a great va
riety OF concurring circumstances there
is the highest probability that the
Floridas will soon be in the possession
of the former" In the same letter Wash
ington advises Spain to be wise and lib
eral at once, and annihilate all cause of
difference between that nation and his
own.
