This is not an ordinary struggle . We ha « e not those to deal with who will hearken to fair and honourable proposals . Their conduct towards all the neighbouring powers sufficiently tells us what we have a riht to expect at

Are any of the inhabitants of this country so besotted by theoretical whimsies , as to conceive it a matter of indifference in whose hands the reins of government are trusted , at a time when there is a strong faction at work , and that faction is powerfully encouraged by the foreign foe , for the overthrow
of the very constitution itself ? A gentle and indifferent spirit is , not that which will maintain our country in this storm . The only thing that can save us is for every man to keep firmly to his post , and be ready to oppose , to the utmost , those who want to draw off our attention to other matters , while they are taking advantage of the general carelessness , in order to ruin the whole .
