June 1. — Among the many errors America has been guilty of during her contest with Great Britain, few have been greater or attended with more fatal consequences to these States than her lenity [lenience] to the Tories. At first it might have been right, or perhaps political. But is it not surprising that after repeated proofs of the same evils resulting therefrom, it should still be continued? We are all crying out against the depreciation of our money and entering into measures to restore it to its value while the Tories, who are one principal cause of the depreciation, are taken no notice of, but suffered to live quietly among us. We can no longer be silent on this subject and see the independence of the country, after standing every shock from without, endangered by internal enemies. Rouse, America! Your danger is great — great from a quarter where you least expect it. The Tories, the Tories will yet be the ruin of you! ’Tis high time they were separated from among you. They are now busy engaged in undermining your liberties. They have a thousand ways of doing it and they make use of them all.
