9063. WELFARE, Public.—

To preserve
the peace of our fellow citizens, promote their
prosperity and happiness, reunite opinion, cultivate
a spirit of candor, moderation, charity
and forbearance toward one another, are objects
calling for the efforts and sacrifices of
every good man and patriot. Our religion enjoins
it; our happiness demands it; and no
sacrifice is requisite but of passions hostile to
both.—
To the Rhode Island Assembly. Washington ed. iv, 397.
(W. 1801)
