contributed to sustain the neutral policy

afterwards recommended by the Father of

I his country a measure which brightenjed the escutcheon ofhis fame, and produjced a golden harvest of prosperity to this j nation. A sense of the services rendered j at that time by Mr. Adams to his country .induced Presidcn Washington to confer ion him the first public appointment he cvI received.
