been deceived in our honor. I could forgive every thing in this unhappv alfair, but the wound our honor hs fuflained —ls they had taken cverv ycfftl belonging to our navy, and hat kiiled ten times as many men in fail combat, thefr would have been afts. in their nature, admitting of for givenefs; but that of which we com plain, is rendered doubly poignant, by the itifult it has put upon us, yc the injury is not immtiirable vulnus But, if we had given up, to the ven geance-of an irritated power, and, as, •we had reason to believe, to m’iitary execution, men who had voluntarily engaged to risk their lives, and, if rie cefiat y to filed their blood in the cause of their country, under the plea, that they were no longer under the prote&ian of the civil law's, what dif.j grace would have been visible on our’ blotted honor afterwards? And to what cud should we have allowed this aft to go down to posterity, as an evi dence of the humiliation of our hearts ? of the meanness of our fuhmiflion ? of the baseness of our treachery ? From an “ inclinaii sn to be fervicea ble’’* to the navy of Great-Britsin ! This is the foundation of fu h o6ts.— .V/a? it bccaufe G<eat ibi- iin had ri ;ht to make the demand ? No ! Be came it was our duty ? No ! For their rights and our duties, are in re lation to them reciprocal. Becauf our necefiity, and not our will, would have conferred ? No t For we be lieve that our national independence, and our national proip rity, woul< have been fafr, though v;c should have} incurred the difpleafurc of j Great Britain. Then it would Lave-1 been merely a gratuous aci on our part, from 4i an inclination to be fer vicesble” to the navy of that nation V/as it to -ppeafe her wrath which was lighted up by our contumacy, in not laying prostrate a: her feet, the fa cried charter of our rights* and the v.iua ble laws of our country, that, by tel ling theft men (who fought anafylum granted by all nations, on our fiiores, re-pofmg on the faith and on the in.de fsnder.ee us the United States) of our country’s injuries and our country’s gforv, by calling upon them to fympa iiv.fe with us in :hc one, and to Olinc with u in the Sight of the other ; that we were to seduce them from their fanftuary, ar.d to give them over, bound in chains, to the vengeance of their accusers ? This would have been adding th| racanetl cowardice to the baled treachery. But would not this have been the chsracler of our con dud, had we surrendered them tinder the prete<ice, that they were no longer protested by the civil, but fubjefl to military Saw ? Would not the jealous honor of military life, which is not founded on * 4 barren theory, or cold diplomatic speculation,” which “feels (tainlike a wound,” have been fhock cd at such a deed? It would have been withdrawn from our flag, which would have been become the objeft of every nation’s infuh, and every soldier’s scorn. Cl VIS. ,y Martens, 107.
