Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Word to Federalists and to Those Who Love the Memory of Washington "British Injiueiice!" "French Influence!" War with England!" "War with France!" "our sea coast ravaged!" "the treasury exhausted!" "oppressive taxes!" forced contributions!" our Liberties arid Independence threatened!" These are words which we daily hear. What do these things mean? Who is to blame? What are the real dangers? How are we to meet them? - Friends of Republican institutions! Real Patriots! ´tis time that you should make these inquiries. Some men are yet living, who took part in the conflict, which freed us from England, and made us a nation. Some are yet living, who helped to form our excellent constitution, and that of the union. All who are living know, what benefits such forms of government may yield, when rightly administered. When our conflict for freedom was past, we put at the head of our nation the man who conducted our armies in the days of peril. We sent him companions and assistants from among those who fought by his side, and those who then served in the councils of the people. National embarrassments disappeared. Public credit was restored. Confidence between man and man returned. Commerce revived. Our lands were cultivated. The fruits of our industry commanded their price. The young looked forward to rational and solid blessings. The middle-aged felt no fear, that their families would want cloathing or food. Declining years were comforted, and cheered We had schools and easily supported them. Every man´s offspring might aspire to the first offices of state, if nature and industry had given suitable powers. We worshipped God as conscience dictated. Taxes were light, and were easily paid. We heard of the tumults, the commotions, the revolutions of Europe, but they did not extend to us. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
