The legislative records of New England, at that period, will show that even they were prepared to outstrip Carolina in her purpose to break the ligaments that bound them to the Union, unless that law was repealed. The embargo act had been a favorite measure with Mr. Jefferson ; but when he saw the discord which it kindled, and the danger which it produced in the New England States, with a breast filled with patriotism,... as broad as his whole country, he surrendered his cherished policy, and the embargo was repealed.
