5042. MANUFACTURES, Rivalry in foreign markets.—

We hope to remove the
British fully and finally from our continent.
And what they will feel more, for they value
their colonies only for the bales of cloth they
take from them, we have established manufactures,
not only sufficient to supersede our
demand from them, but to rivalize them in
foreign markets.—
