Ail untiiuii. Delivered befjre the Wuhington Attociwtion of Lncaiter, on the Foar.h of July, 1815. BY JAMES BUCHANAN. ESQ. THIRTY-NINE ynr mgo, upon ihii dty, we were dtfcltred bo independent people. At thwi time the Continental Congreit buret waaunder the ehaini which bound them to Great Brilwin, and teaolved to be free, or periah in the attempt. Upon that day then prevented to the world R apeotA elw of wiadom and firm neat which hat never been excelled. 1 o make a proper eatimate of their conduct, we muat twite into view the then aitaation of this country, com paired with thnt of our enemy. On the one tide, the armiea of Greet Brit a in were numeroua end veterana; they were led by commander! who bed ac quired miliUry reputation in every clime; they wer aupported end (urniahed with every implement of war by a nation whoee wealth baa upon different oceaiions, purcbeied tbe aervicea of ell the crowned heeda in Europe. On the other aide, our armiee were -mall and unacquainted wiih military diaeipline; owr offleera were deetitute of experience, and we were to miaererably poor that our brave loldiera were not more than half clothed, and their winter marchee ower the froatj ground which tbey were defending, could be tracked by tbe blood that flowed from (heir anked feet. But even (bete wer not the only dUadvantagea under which we labor ed. Whilat our enemy invaded ua from without, the torch of discord and of treaaon wet lighted up within. When Independence waa declared, the mother country had a powerful party throughout all the middle Statea, and many adherenta in every other part of the Union. Dreadful, therefore, waa tho reaponaibility of that Congre!. Had not victory carried their bannen, their name would have been cursed by the people of ihie eountry aa the promoter! of a dettruotive civil war, while their blood would have flowed on the acH.Told as a aacrtBoe to appeaae the pirit of Britith vengeance. In thit awful tituation, whilat the dark eloud of dettruolion appeared ready to bunt upon them, they declared tc the world our Independence. The) thought that Wta a. i ih a whole eternity of bondage '' 1 Everlaatlng honor to iheir nam: The gratitude of free people will forever hallow their memory. It le not my intention, at tint Um, (o give you a narrative of thoae glorious event of tbe revolutionary war, which led to tbe recognition of our Independence by Oreat Britain end by thu world. They have been the tub-ja-ct of to many oraiiona, end of auch general intereat, thai thy are familiar to every mind. The present oration ahall contain a ahort Llalorieal tketoh of the nott prominrnt action of the parij now In power in thla eountry, and their oonaequenoea; and alto Inquiry concerning tbe court which mind policy dictate that the government of the United Statea should purtue in future. The importance of thoae aubjarcla, although nut strictly connected with the celebration of ibis day, will. I trust, be their apology to every mind. There waa a powerful FACTION in the United (Stales opposed to the adoption of the federal Conttiiution. The individual of which it wa composed were called ami federalits, and were the founders of the Democratic party. Tbey gloried in setting themselves in array agaimt our present admirable form of government. The h alitor of tloia opposition were chiefly DEMAGOGUES, who might have risen tu thu head of a atate fastion. but who felt coniciou that their tal enu w uld be eclipeed, when the luminaries of the United Statea should be collected around the General Government. To gratify their ambition, they wished that this country should continue divided into a number of petty state soveieigniiea without any t (bcient government for their control. I Ins tbey desired, although they had tLe example of ancient Oreeco before their eyes, and well knew, the clashing interests of the States and their muttul jealouaie kept alive by alliances with different foreign nations. would have made this country a perpetual theatre of contention and civil war, until it had fled for refuge into the arm of despotism. They therefore sounded the alarm throughout the Union against the federal constitution They prt dieted ruin to' the State Gov ernment and to the liberties of the people, from the powers given t the "der I government. By these means tbey s'icceeded in alarming tho fean of many koou men, and inducing tlum to iMjaieve, that government, which is now the palladium of their safety, would be the instrument of their deatruetion. Notwithstanding their desperate efforts the constitution wat adopted and Washington was elected Pretidaint. It might have been aupposed that theae faclionariea would have been Bed into nilence by hi witdom und v iriu. Tbie waa not the eaae. The opMMition which tbey had given to the federal government, waa now tran.tferred to it adminittration. Al lint, indeed, the voice of calumny dared only to wbiaper ngaintt Washington tnd hi measures, but ere long it waa beard in thunder. When the French revolution commenced, it wa bailed by tbe people of this country, generally, a tho dawn of rational liberty ia Europe. But when, in it prog reu, it had beoomo i be dettruction of religion and moral ity when thoutanda of eitisvoa were daily sentenced to death and butchered without trial and without crime when all the horror x anarchy were poured oat upon that devoted country

at home and when, Attila like it had become the scourge of Ood to foreign nations; the Washingtonisn party began to entertain far of it result, and thought it neoesary to a tern the torrent of French influence, which waa rapidly overflowing our country. To thisduty they were imperiously called, a it was not only in theory one of tbe avowed objects of that government to spread revolutionary principles over i he wholn world, but they had nctu ally attempted to sow the teed of rebellion throughout the United 8late. True to their original principle and their lint love, the Demoeratio party of that day became more the friend of the French AS THEY BECAME MORE THE ENEMIES of social or der. When the proclamation of neu trality wa isnned by Washington that proclamation whioh ia now almost universally admitted to have been tbe ideation of our country that proc lamation which impartiality placed England and France upon the sirae fooling, and laid open the commerce of the world to Ameriet, they were enraged that we had not entered into an allianoe with the French Republic, and waged war, under their bannen, agaieal the human race. But when the treaty of peace with England, commonly called Jpy'a treaty, wi.a ratified by Washington, tobbbxtb of personal abitbb were poured out by ihe Dkmooratic Partt upon his head. They openly charge the father of his uountiy wuh an intention of db trotino his own beloved offspring. To such s pitch of ingratitude were they carried by THEIR DIABOLICAL PASSIONS that tbey dared publicly, and without the slightest inundation to aocuse him of secntly putting his hand into the treasury like a felon, and appropriating, without authority, the money of the nation to hi own individual use. That roan, the vigor of whoee youth had been worn out in those splendid military achievements which made oar oountry independent, and whose age and experience had been devoted to the urealion and organisation of the federal government that man who had never received one fanliing more of amj the publie money than what he had expended in the public service, wa aoouaed ofbeinaauH pbctji.ator of the publio tnasun. During this cruel persecution his noble mind felt sensibly tb atingt of his oountry's ingratitude. In the bittemeas of hi out ha complained that he had been abused, to us his own emphaiical Ian gunge, in "such exaggerated and indecent terms, as could tcarcely be applied to a Nero a notorious defaalter or i v. ii to a common pickpocket." What must be our opinion of an opposition, who passions were so dark and malignant ca to be gratified in endeavoring to blaat the character and embitter the old age of Washington! After thus persecuting the saviour of his country, how ean the demoeratio party dare to call themselves his disciples? But no opposition could divert the steady soul of Wahin-ton from hi ptirpo He had digested a eyatem of policy which he steadily pursued. amid the alorma of faotion. His buoc ssor in office for the most part, walked in his footsteps. To continue at peace a nation muat ba ready for war. was a maxim by whioh the Federal adminietration were constantly directed. Under their auapicea, therefore, public credit wat well established, as tbe bett means of public defence. The debt of the revolutionary war wat funded, and moderate taxe were imposed. A navy was built for the protection of our commerce. We considered all nations equally, in war, at enemiet, in peace, as friend; and therefore a atriot neutrality towards all nations was preserved. It would be impossible to enumerate every wise meaaure of the Wathingtonian administration!; suffice it to say, that dui ing their continuance, the proaperity of this country was unexampled in the annals of time. The dreams of fancy were al.nost realised. Cities rose up aa if by magic throairhoat our country, and wealth flowed in upon us from all nations. The wilderness yielded to the hand of ..griculture, and fields loaded with tbe richest harvests covered tho gloomy forest where wild Maat i but a lew year before, had uaed to roam. Happy, indeed, were thoae people, had they hut known their own hnppineat. Notwithstandingtheir prosperity, faction still continued to rage and to increase. The potseition of power waa the end of the opposition, about the meant they were regardleat. Their leaden pretended a tender solicitude for the welfare of the people. Their voice were loud in favor of publio economy, and ngaintt a navy, an army and taxe. Although Franc had wnntonly oaptured a number of our vettelt with out cause, had actually demanded tribute from ua, and had threatened our oountry with invasion, and with the dreadful fata of Venio , if it were not paid; although she had twice refused to recogniae our ministers, who went supplicating for peace, they were opposed to raising an army or a navy for our defence. After an army had been raised, notwithstanding it waa commanded by Washington, and destined to act agaiust a foreign enemy, they loudly expressed their apprehension, that it wa intended to destroy our republican form of Government, and substitute monarchy in its stead. The taxes, necessary for its support, afforded them a fresh theme of declamation. Bv means such as these, they succeeded so well in their endeavors, that they at length became the majority of the nation, and got its destinies placed in their bsnds. How they have used their power, it will now be my endeavor to show. They began with the destruction of tbe Navy. It had been uuppotcd by tha federal adniinisuaiions, that a navy

was our bett defence. From the lo-1

cwlity of our country, and from the nalure of sueh a force tbey knew that It would be peculiarly calculated to proleot our thore from foreign invasions, and to make ua retpeetvd by the na-1 lion of the world; wiihoui, lik a ! aianding army, endangering our liber-'

lies. It waa alao lumenii ly them, aamal her great adveraary England. that, 'without a navy, our commerce To secure thi foreign feeling ha beou would be exposed, saga rich tempta-! the labor of their leader for more than lion, lo the avarice of all nation; and, twenty years, and well have they been in consequence of our wuaknea. we I repaid for their trouble, for it ha been would be subjected to constant Insults one of the principal cause of introduand injuries upon tbe oeeao, without j eing and continuing them in power, the power of resistance. It had, there- j Immediately before the war, this forfore, been their policy gradually to eign influence bad completely emboderecta navy, and tbey bad built a ieu Itself with every political feeling of great number of vetted at the tin-1 a mtjority of tbe people. Particularwhen tb rlrat Democratic adminUlra- ly in the weit, itt voice waa heard so lion came into power. ! loud at the sent of Government, thai At that moment the scene changed, the President was obliged to yield to They had promised the people an ex-1 it dictates or retire from office. The emplion from taxes, and unless they choice in this alternative was easily oould perform, their popularity was in made by a man ( Madison) who predanger. They did not hesiute what ferred his private interest to the pubcourse to punuo. Tbey immediately i lie good. We were therefore, hurried sold our nations! ships they disarm-1 into wht entirely unprepared, ed the country and invited injuilioe What hxa been itt retells? Exactly

and insu It from abroad, thnt ihev i sight not be under tbe necessity of imputing a trifling tax, and thereby injuring their popularity at home. Thank be to Providence, the delusion upon this subjeot ha vanished, and their conduct now appears in its proper light before the publio. The little remnant of that navy, which had been fondly cherished by Washington and hit adherents, but which was despised by Ihe patriots of the present day, ha risen triumphant above i.s enemies at home, and hai made the proud mistre of the ocean tremble. The people are noweonvinced that a navy it their bett defence. Tbe Demoeratio Adminittration next deolared war againat Commerce. They were not aautfied with depriving it of the protection of a Navy, but they acted at though they had determined upon its annihilation. At a time when ihe nationt of Europe wen convulsed by dreadful ware, the United State being neutral and when, in oonaequenoe thereof all our native production were in greaieat demand, and the oarrying trade presented to our merchant a rloh harvest in every quarter of the globe, ihry thut up our portt by embirgoei and non-impoita-tion lawt. By these means, the streams of wealth, which wr flowing into our national treasury and into our country, from the thouaand fountain of commerce, were suddenly dried up.

Who that had wllneaaed theae th'ngs, cannot observe the hand of th Oorsioan despot, like that dreadful hand upon the wall of the Babylonish monarch, writing our destruction. Who own avoid believing that Bonaparte was tbe source ot this policy, and that it wa intended to operate in uniaon with bia continental eyatem. It might perhaps be unwarrantable to assert that our administration were actually corrupted by Fraooe: but that their politic were biased by a warm and improper partiality for that country, there can be no doubt. Time will not allow me to enumerate all the other wild and wicked projects of tbe Demooralio adminis'ration. Suffice to say, that after they had deprived us of the mean of defense, by destroying our navy tnd disbanding our army; after they had taken away from us the power of recreating them, by ruining oommerce, the great aource cf our national and individual wealth; after they had. by refuting the bank of At United Slate a continuation of it charter, embarrassing the financial concerns of ihe Government, and withdrawn the only universal paper medium of the country from circulation; after the people had Income unaccuttomed to, and of course, unwilling lo bear taxation; and without money in the Treasury, tbey rashly plunged into a war with a nation more able to do ua iojury than any other in the world. What wa the dreadful ne cessity for thit desperate measure? Wat our country invaded? No. Wer our liberties in danger? No. Wa it lo protect our little remaining commerce from the injuriea sustained by the order in council? No. Commerce was not such a favorite, and the merchant withed for no war on that account. Betide, if the exiatenco of thu ordert in eounoil bad been it true caute, after tbeir repeal, our country would have accepted the olive branch which was offend by England. What then waa the cause?

and impartially examine tha history of our oountry, will find its true origin to bav been far different. It took itt rite from the over weening partiality whioh the Demoeratio Parly have uniformly thown for France, and the consequent hatred which they fell; wli.it re tsoiiiihie ine expected at lit commencement. We declared our intention of conquering Canada; whether for the purpose of annexing to the United State, or of compelling our enemy to yield the doctrine of impriaonment, is immaterial to the present question. Instead of conqueriug it, we have ourselves been invaded In every quarter, and the best blood of our oountry has streamed in defence of our soil. The very capital of the United Stales, the lofty temple of liberty, whioh was reared and oonsecrated by Washington, has been abandoned to its fat uy his degenerate successor ( Madison. ) who ought to have thed hit latt drop of blood in itt defence. After the (Democratic) adminittration had entered upon the war, instead of coming forward with manly confidence, and taxing the people for its support, they basely shrunk from their duty, in order to mnintain their popularity, and adopted the odious system of carrying on the contest bv borrowing money. What were the effects of this policy? Does not every man in the country know, what it even dlsguited by tbe adminieitaiion, that lh United State would, in a hört time, hav become bankrupt, had not peace been coucluded? Thank to Heaven, that we have obInined peace, bad and disgraceful as it is; otherwise the beautiful structure of the federal government supported by tho same feeble hands, might have sunk, like the Capital, into ruins. This system of anticipating our revenue has lefl an immense lund of debt upon the country, the payment ol which will be a grievous burden, not only upon the present generation, but upon posterity. Thit burden hat fallen more heavily upon our country than upon any other part of the Union; on acoount of our numeroua and i extensive distilleriea. Tho late arldi " ""I duly impoied upon whisky lint nlroost destroyed its maoufaciuie.

The balance of Hade was greatly in our favor, and wealth was rapidly diffuting itself throughout our country. But Congnas, by impoaing a tax upon the article more grievout than it was able lo bear, have dettroyed the veiy revenue which tbey intended to raiie. Thit inttance, among many othert of a similar nature, ahoi how totally destitute are our present rulers of wiadom and foresight, even upon subjects immediately regarding the pecuniary interest of the Government. These are not the ouly uv'iIb consequent upon that timid and time-serving policy. It haa embarrassed the government io much, that it must be a long lime, indeed, before we oan dare again to go to war with any powerful nation, even for the maintenance of our dearest rights. All these evils would, n a great measure, have been prevented by sufficient independence in the admiaislralion, to have imposed moderate taxes at the commencement of the contest. The credit of the nation would then have continued good, and we might have avoided the painful spectacle of aeeing the public atwck sold in the market, at an enormous discount, and greedy speculators enriching themselves by its purchase, at the expense of the toil and sweat of the hone t yeomanry of our country. Instead of exempting seamen sailing under our flag from impressment by the war, we have altogether relinquished that principle; b cause it is veil -established truth in the law of nations that if war be waged by one country against another, lor a specified claim, and the treaty whioh terminated the contest is silent upon that object, it ia forever abandoned. Thus the Government have at least yielded ihe very point for the maintenance ol which they prcfeaaed to go to war, af ter h iving expended nearly two bun dred millions of dollar. We have not only not obtained by ' the war anything which we were tnught to expeot, but we have lost many valuable privileges. All the numerous rights and advantage guar antied to us by Jay's treaty have been relinquished. Nay, we have not only been compelled to oonoludn a treaty
