To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To notice an admission, as it has been called, of my worthy colleague, of the power of altering post roads, after they are established. I cannot understand this as gen- tlemen appear to do, and I know that my colleague is not correctly go understood. Sir, in the state, one of whose representatives 1 am, I don't know a single post route that has not been changed from what it was when established as a post road by the statute. Why, sir, you will not, at this moment, on the mail route from the cap...ital of i\\f- 27 United States to the capital of Virginia, travel for the first twenty miles on a single inch of 'he road as it existed when that mail route was first established. What follows from the doctrine of gentlemen on this su'iject? Why, that if Virginia should do what she ought to do — make a good road between the two points referred to — the mail is yet to continue to go, as now, plunii:;ing through the worse than Serbonian bogs, betvveen the Neabsco and Chapawamsic, and we shall do it, because it is treason — not by the Constitution of the Unit- ed States, t» be sure, but about as pretty a case of constructive trea- son, as a latitudinarian judge could desire to see on a summer's day, to alter a post road.
