Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Letters Under the Signatures of Senex, and of a Farmer: Comprehending an Examination of the Conduct of Our Executive, Towards France and Great Britain, Out of Which the Present Crisis Has Arisen Great public exigencies, in free governments, have always called forth great virtue and talents. Thus the passing occurrences of the day prove, that the lapse of twenty-five years has not turned our nation aside from that salutary vigilance of their rulers and jealousy of their rights, without which our government could not have been established nor continued. Should we survive the fraud, prejudice and power, which have conspired for our ruin, we shall not owe it more to the timely illustrations of the sage, and the heroic devotion of the patriot, than to native good sense and unalterable attachment to liberty in the body of the people. We have here another proof, that the American nation is as conspicuous for its intelligence, as for its civil system, and its unalterable adherence to national freedom. The late attempts upon both, have electrified the whole country. The aged, then tired, the timid the wavering, and the deluded, have all been brought into the ranks of that phalanx, which is determined to save the country. By such exertions, it must be saved! Among the pens which have powerfully contributed to this conservatory alarm, is the able and ingenuous author of the subjoined letters. His fascinating candor and vigorous argument, have chased away the sophistry and premeditated delusions, with which the Hand of Power has covered its sinister purposes and our danger. These explanations of our public affairs, in a conjuncture which has involved the life and death of our enviable political constitution, will be long admired. The crisis which called them forth, is alone more interesting, than the dignity of the writer is venerable, and his capacity exalted.
