by the President of the United
States of Amenca,
A PROCLAMATION.
WHEREAS from a hope, thai the
combinations against tile GynltitUtion
and Laws of r the United States ( in cer
tain of the Weltern counties of Penn
sylvania would yield to tirrle and reflec
tion, 1 thought it filflicicnt, in the firfl
indanCc, rather to tale meafuht for call
ing,forth tile militia, than immediately
to embody them- ; —but the *mdinent is
now come, when the Overtures of for
givenefs with nd other condition, than
a fubmilfiOri to Law, have Wen only
partially accepted—when every form of
conciliation not inconsistent with the
being of Government, has been adopt
ed without effect; —when the well dis
posed in those counties, are unable by
their influenceaud example to reclaim
the wicked from their fury, arid are
compelled to afTociate in their own de
fence ;—when the proffered lenity has
been peiverfely mifiriterpreted into an
apprehenfiort, that the citizens Will
mfo-ch with relu&ance j—when the op
portunity of examining the feriohs con
sequences of a treafanable opposition
lias' been employed in propagating prin
ciples of anarchy, endeavoring through
emHfaries to alienate the friends of or
der from itsfuppoit,- and inviting its e
nemies to perpetrate fimilaf a£ls of in
furreftion j—when it is rhanifeft that
vio! ;nce would continue to be exercised
upon every attempt to enforce the Law*
—When therefore government is set at
defiance, the contiilt being whether a
small portion of the United States (hall
didlate to the whole union, and at thi
<!xpence of those, who delire peace* in
indulge a desperate ambition :
Now therefore I George Washing
ton, President of the United States, in
obedience to that high and iri efiflible
duty, eonfigrted to trie by th« Gonliitu
tion " to tiffed cart tfiat the laws be
iaithfully executed #"—deploring that
the American namfc fhottid be sullied
' v .the outrages of citizens on their
own Government; commiserating fuel),
as remain obstinate from delulion ;
but resolved in perfect reliance on that
Giacious Providence whidh so signally
displays its goodness towards this Coun
try, to reduce the refractory to a due
lubordination to the law; —Do hereby
declare and make known, that with
fatisfadtion, tfhich can be equalled only
by the merits of the Militia summoned
''ltd service from the States of NeW-
Jersey, Pennfv!vania, Maryland ai)d
Virginia, I have deceived intelligence of
their patriotic alacrity,- in obeying the
call of the prefem, tho' painful,- yet
commanding necessity; t&at a force,
Which according to every rcafonable ex
pectation rs adeqvate to the exigency,
is already in motion to the faene of dif
affedtion ; —that th«£e who ha*e Confid
ed, or (hall confide in the prote&ion of
Government, (hall meet full fiiccoor
under the standard and from the arms
of the United States ; —that those who
having offended against the laws have
since entitled themselves to indemnity,
will be treated with the molt liberal
good faith, if they fhalj not have for
feited their claim by any fubfeqyent
t'ondudt, and that inft ructions.are giren
accordingly. -~
And 1 do moreover exhort all ihdi
viduals, officers, and bodies of men, to
contemplate with abhorrence the mea
sures leading diredtlv or indiredily to
those crimes, which produce this
resort to military coercion : -to check,
in their reipeftiye Spheres, the efforts of
misguided or deligning men to fubfti
tutt their misrepresentation in the place
of truth and their discontents in the
place of stable government s—and5 —and to
call to mind that as the people of the
United States have been permitted un
der the Divine favor in perfcdt freedom,
after solemn deliberation, and in- an
enlightened age, to elect -their own go
vernment ; so will their giatitiide for
this ineflimable blessing be bed distin
guished by firm exertions to maintain
the Constitution arid the laws.
And lastly 1 again warn all persons
whomsoever and wherefover, not to
abet, aid or comfort the Irtfurgents
aforefaid, as they will answer the con
trary at their peril j and I do also re
quire all officers and other citizens, ac
cording to their several duties, as fat
as may be in their power, to bring un
der the cognizance of the law all offen
ders in the Premises.
In Testimony whereof, I have caus
ed the Seal of the United States of A
merica to be' affixed to these Presents,
and signed the fame with my hand.
