Excerpt from The History of Georgia, Vol. 2 of 2: Containing Brief Sketches of the Most Remarkable Events, Up to the Present Day India Company, for the exportation of a large quantity of that article, to be disposed of on their fiwn account, in the American ports. This mea sure produced that kind of commotion, from one end of the continent of America to the other, which the contrivers of the plan might have fore seen. These and many other similar designs, which have been noticed by almost every Ameri can historian, created a jealousy and hatred against great-britain. For the purpose of uniting in some general plan of operations in this critical state, of affairs, With the other provinces in America, a meeting was called in Savannah. But the powerful arm Of the royal government in the hands of a man of Sir James vvright's sagacity and talents, at the head of an influential train Of civil officers, pro hibited an open expression Of the public senti ment.
