The laws hindering the payment of debts were not repealed; andas for the Tories, they were so badly treated that between 1783 and 1785more than 100, 000 left the country. Those from the southern states wentmostly to Florida and the Bahamas; those from the north made thebeginnings of the Canadian states of Ontario and New Brunswick. A goodmany of them were reimbursed for their losses by Parliament.
    [Sidenote: Great Britain retaliates, presuming upon the weakness of the feeling of union among
... the states. ] When the British government saw that these provisions of the treaty werenot fulfilled, it retaliated by refusing to withdraw its troops fromthe northern and western frontier posts. The British army sailed fromCharleston on the 14th of December, 1782, and from New York on the 25thof November, 1783, but in contravention of the treaty small garrisonsremained at Ogdensburgh, Oswego, Niagara, Erie, Sandusky, Detroit, andMackinaw until the 1st of June, 1796. Besides this, laws were passedwhich bore very severely upon American commerce, and the Americans foundit impossible to retaliate because the different states would not agreeupon any commercial policy in common.
