inhabitants. So the treaty of peace, which already contained a confession that the United States were not compacted into one nation, made known that in their confederacy men could be held as property; but it, as interpreted alike by American and English statesmen, included free negroes among the citizens of the United States. In the hope of preventing the possibility of a future dispute about boundaries, they were marked interchangeably by a strong line on copies of the map of America by Mitchell. The articles of peace, though entitled provisional, were made definitive by a declaration in the preamble. Friends of Franklin gathered around him, and as the Duke of Rochefoucauld kissed him for joy, My friend, said Franklin, could I have hoped at such an age to have enjoyed so great happiness? The treaty was not a compromise, nor a compact imposed by force, but a free and perfect solution, and perpetual settlement of all that had been called in question. By doing an act of justice

The furniture, the fence, the trees, and all that I most prize I burned, and as a last resort, I took to exercise. Oh, Morgan, and oh, Mitchell, we prayed you, “still the storm, Allow our honest people their hearts and hearths to warm.” A fairer and a stronger man than you our danger recognized, And when he spoke you listened and your power exercised.
