Excerpt: “Ye people of North-America, let the example of all the nations that have gone before you, and above all that of your mother-country, serve you for instruction. Fear the affluence of gold, which brings with luxury the corruption of manners, the contempt of laws. Fear a too unequal distribution of riches, which exhibits a small number of citizens in opulence, and a great multitude of citizens in extreme poverty; which springs the insolence of the former, and the debasement of the latter.” Published by Ashbel Stoddard, Hudson (1792).
