David Daggett: “Shall the impudent, banish them from your affections and usurp their places in your hearts?”

If no benefits will result--if much evil will probably ensue--the course of duty and interest is plain.

On similar principles a wise people regard the conduct of other nations, and are solemnly admonished by their example.

But mark the issue --Not twelve years have elapsed before she has returned to an inglorious despotism--She has exchanged her Capets for a foreign usurper, with an incalculable loss, and here her history ends.

She boldly proclaimed herself the example of the world, and all nations were invited to see her glory, and enjoy her blessed liberty and her glorious equality.
