They had placed great hopes in this step. They were not igr. Orant that many Americans had abated their ardor, and even conceived a secret discontent, since the much magnified succor of the count d'Estaing had proved of so little, or rather of no utility. The commissioners were also, as usual, stimulated by the refugees, who reminded them continually of the multitude and power of the loyalists. They ex- patiated, therefore, upon the perfidy of France, upon the ambition of congress, and they exe...rted themselves, especially, to prove that the latter, in a case of this importance, where the salvation or the ruin of all America was at stake, had not, even by their own constitution, the power to ratify the treaties with France, v/ithout consulting their constituents ; at a time, too, when such offers of accommodation were expected on the part of Great Britain, as not only far exceeded the demands, but even the hopes of the inhabitants of America. They concluded with observing, that the faith of the nation was not pledged by the ratification of congress.
