When Burr and Blanncrhaffet were attempting a projeft of difunion, to be effefted by a divifion of the Weftern States, they circulated, in converfations and newf- papers, the fame excitements among them to jealoufy and envy againfl: their Atlantic fillers, as we find in thefe ex- tracts againft the Ilragglers of the forefts. They urged that the weftern people were opprefTed by the commercial ftates ; that we had made them our tributaries ; that they had paid a heavy load of taxes for our benefi
...t ; that the produce oi their lands was applied to pay our debts ; that the national government was without energy, and that from all this muft follow within five, or even two years, thedif- Jolution of the Union.
