No. 53.
WHEREAS, It is highly important at this eventful
crisis in our
foreign relations, that the opinions and feelings of every section of
the union should be fairly and fully expressed: Therefore, we the
legislature of Maryland, do RESOLVE, That in the opinion of this legislature,
the measures of the administration with respect to Great
Britain have been honourable, impartial and just; that in their negotiations,
they have evinced every disposition to terminate our differences
on terms not incompatible with our national honour; and
that they deserve the confidence and support of the nation.
RESOLVED, That the measures of Great Britain have been,
and
still are destructive of our best and dearest rights; and being inconsistent
with justice, with reason and with law, can be supported
only by force; therefore if persisted in, by force should be resisted.
RESOLVED, That the measures of the administration, with
respect
to France, we highly approve. They have been fully authorised
by the law and the fact.
RESOLVED, That the acts of injustice and violence committed
on
our neutral rights by France, have excited all that indignation
which a lawless exercise of power could not fail to do; but having
now ceased to violate our neutral rights, we trust that the period is
not far distant, when by acts of ample justice, all cause of complaint
will be removed. |
Passed Dec. 30,
1811.
Approving of the
measures of the
general government. |
