Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Some Consequences of the Last Treaty of Paris: Advances in International Law and Changes in National Policy
As these lines are written,1 the thing which Jefferson looked forward to has come to pass. For the first time under Govern ment orders since British regulars and the militia of the American colonies fought Indians on Lake Champlain, and French at Quebec, the Briton and the American have been fighting side by side, and again against savages. In a larger sense, too, they are at last embarked side by side in the eastern duty, devolved on each, of bearing the White Man's burden. It seems natural, now, to count on such a friendly British inter est in present American problems as may make welcome a brief statement of some things that were settled by the late Peace of Paris, and some that were unsettled.
