*' I lamented, therefore, the impolicy, tyranny, and injustice, which, with a sovereign contempt, the people of America, studiously neglected to take their collective sentiments on the British proposals of peace ; and to negociate, under a sus- pension of arms, for an adjustment of differen- ces ; I lamented it as a dangerous sacrifice of the great interests of this country, to the partial views of a proud, ancient, and crafty foe. I had my suspicions of some imperfections in the coun- cils, on... proposals prio- to the commission of 1778, but having then iess to do in the cabinet than the field, (I will not pronounce peremptorily as some may, and perhaps justly, that congress have exiled them from the public eye) I continued to be guided In the negligent confidence of a sol- dier. But the whole world saw, and all Ame- rica confessed; that the overtures of the second commission, exceeded our wishes, and expecta- tions ; and if there was any suspicion of the na- tional liberality, it arose from its excess.
