Does this prove that he did not wish for Peace, - or that EuQ-land would not make Peace during: his adniiniS" traticn ? Or has this war proved that the peoj)!e are their own worst enemies ? Has it proved that those State Gov- ernments which have opposed the war so much, have been- most saving of die people's money ? — I think not. It has^ proved that Americans have discomfited their enemies on every side ; that their well-tried valor has gained an ex- alted name for their country ; and they Vv^...ill assuredly reap ';he honor they deserve from all nations. But while wc feel an honest pride in the martial fame of ou? country-' men, there is one noble trait in their character, wliich de- serves to be inscribed on walls of brass and pillars of mar- ble — I mean their humanity. It has equaled their cour- age — it has shone conspicuous over Britisli dishonor :'. Mf erucky — it has descended in showers of blessings on their prisoners— =-it has spread the broad mantle of mercy, to* comfort and relieve their fallen enemies !
