[Wolcott, Oliver]
British Influence of the Affairs of the United States, Proved and Explained.
"Truth is Great, and Will Prevail"
No Complaint has been more frequent, than that of an Influence exercised by Great-Britain over our people through the medium of Commerce-Altho we hear much at one time of our own great power as a Nation of Debtors: Yet we are told the next moment, that we are the Slaves of our British Creditors. Addresses to our pride, vanity and covetousness, keep our passions up, and reason down; and in this condition we have been urged to accommodate the policy of the Nation to the partial views of some private interest or personal resentments. - The Permanent welfare of the country requires that this subject should be well understood.
