Shepard, a congressman, speaks of suffering of North Carolina during the revolutionary war, when "she, with other Southern States, with a liberality unequalled in history, surrendered to the General Government not only the most profitable sources of revenue, but an immense Western domain, for which she had so dearly paid. Sheared thus voluntarily of her strength, she has been left friendless and unaided, to struggle with exhausted resources. Happily, by great industry and economy, contending with extreme difficulties, she has come out from the crucible of the Revolution, with her honour untouched; and she can now perceive a brighter future through the dreary past."
