Al- ready, too, had anarchy and wild misrule* reared their hi- deous banner, and to the northern section of our states threatened desolation and ruin. However anxious for peaceful retirement, in a crisis so difficult and dangerous, it was impossible for Washington, without " attainting the lustre of his former name," to refuse his hand to a dis- tressed and falling country. Duty therefore vanquishmg every other feeling, he fled to her rescue. Repairing to the station to which he had been called... in a manner so sacred and soforcible ; summoning around his person the courage, the wisdom, and the virtue of the nation, and strenuously assisted in the legislative councils by the faithful representatives of the people ; under his guidance order, as it were, by magic, rose out of chaos — impartial justice held again her even scales — confidence revived the drooping spirit of desponding in- dustry — " yellow harvests shed again their mellow lustre o'er our fields" — commerce filled the ocean with its swelling sails — and the hum of happy labor was heard in every busy haunt.
