5231. MILITIA FOR LOUISIANA.—
The spirit of this country is totally adverse to
a large military force. I have tried for two
sessions to prevail on the Legislature to let
me plant thirty thousand well chosen volunteers
on donation lands on the west side of
the Mississippi, as a militia always at hand
for the defence of New Orleans; but I have
not yet succeeded.—
To Mr. Chandler Price. Washington ed. v, 47.
(W.
1807)
