2140. DEFENCE, Readiness for.—
While
we are endeavoring * * * to obtain by
friendly negotiation a peaceable redress of the
injury [suspension of deposit at New Orleans],
and effectual provision against its
repetition, let us array the strength of the
nation, and be ready to do with promptitude
and effect whatever a regard to justice and
our future security may require.—
To—. Washington ed. iv, 469.
