A short note to Garr explains the progress of the war fever. Mr.
Cabell was, at this time, Governor of the state. The note refers to proceedings in his Council.
"RjCBMOHDf Julj % 1807.
DEiUlCARR: ♦ * We are on tiptoe for war. I write this in the antechamber, where we are waiting the final resolve of the Coun- cil, on detaching a portion of us to support our brethren at Norfolk.
When more composed, I will write to you at large.
The prospect oif war had now filled Wirt's imagination with dreams o...f military life. His correspondence is firaUgfat with schemes of mar- tial life. His views of public afi^drs, as communicated in some of these letters, will probably amuse tjie reader of the present day, I)y tiieir exhibition of the feelings of the time, and the extravagant expectations which the ferment of the public mind then suggested.
From 1807, until the event actually occurred in 1812, the martial temper of the country was kept in an excitement, which was much more likely to terminate in war than conciliation.
