The American Boys Now Visiting Western Australia

George Washington and the Americans

If I were an American as I am an Englishman, I would never lay down my arms."-Lord Chathe in on the American War of Independence. qb

"You cannot conquer America.

"Illustrious

Washington !-deserving honour less from the splendour of his situation than from the dignity of

his mind before whom all honoured greatness sinks into insignificance and all the princes and potentates of Europe become little and contemptible. The people over whom he presided be knew to be acquainted with their rights and their lilacs. N otwithstanding his

extraordinary talents and exalted integrity, 1_,!

has passed through a

variety of

scenes without stain and without reproach. ft bas been reserved for him to run the race of glory without experiencing the smallest interruption to the brilliancy of his career. The breath of censure has not dared to impeach the purity of his conduct. nor

the eye of envy to raise its malignant glance to the elevation of kis virtues. Such has been the transcendent merit and the unparalleled fate of this illustrious man!

Happy Americans

While the whirlwind flies

over one quarter of the globe, and

spreads everywhere desolation, you

remain protected from the baneful effects by your own virtue and the wisdom of your government.

Separated

from Europe by an immense ocean

you feel not the effects of those prejudices and passions which convert the boasted seats of civilisation into scenes of horror and bloodshed. You profit by the folly and madness of the contending nations and afford in

your more congenial clime an asylum

and virtues

to those blessings

which they wantonly contemn or wickedly exclude from their bosom! Cultivating the arts of peace under the influence of freedom, you advance by rapid strides to opulence and distinction. If by any accident you should be compelled to tal=e part in an unhappy contest, if you should find it necessary to avenge insult or repel injury, the world will bear witness to the equity of your sentiments and the moderation of your views. The success of your arms will no doubt be proportioned to the justice of your cause."

-Fox's eulogy on Washington and the Americans, delivered in the British Parliament.
