In those ages, the reverse of commer cial, when your ancestors filled the ranks of men at arms, and composed the cavalry of England, of whom did the infantry consist? A race unknown to other kingdoms, and in the pre sent opulence of traffic, almost extinct in this, the yeomanry of England; an order of men, possessing paternal inheritance, cultivated under their own care, enough to preserve indepen dence, and cherish the generous sentiments attendant on that condition; without superfluity for id...leness, or effeminate in dulgence. " Of such doth North America consist. The race is re vived there in greater numbers, and in a greater proportion to the rest of the inhabitants; and in such the power of that con tinent resides. These keep the traffickers in awe. These, many hundred thousands in multitude, with enthusiasm in their hearts, with the petition, the bill of rights, and the acts of settlement, silent and obsolete in some places, but vociferous and fresh, as newly born, among them; these, hot with the blood of their progenitors, the enthusiastic scourges at one period, and the revolutional expellers, of tyranny, at another; these, unpractised in frivolous dissipation and ruinous profu sion^ standing armed on the spot; possessing, delivered down from their fathers, a property not moveable, nor exposed to total destruction, therefore maintainable, and exciting all the spirit and vigour of defence; these, under such circumstances of number, animation and manners, their lawyers and clergy blowing the trumpet, are we to encounter with a handful of men sent three thousand miles over the ocean to seek such adversaries on their own paternal ground.
