J Abigail Adams, writing to Jefferson With regard to the tumults in my native state which you inquire about, I wish I could say that report had exaggerated them. It is too true Sir, that they have been carried to so alarming a height as to stop the courts of justice in several counties. Ignorant, restless desperados, without conscience or principles, have ied a deluded multitude to follow their standard, under pretense of grievances which have no existence but in their imaginations. Some of them were crying out for a paper currency, some for an equal distribution of property. Some were for annihilating all debts, others complaining that the Senate was a useless bran ch of government, that the court of common pleas was unnecessary, and that the sitting of the General Court in Boston was a grievance. By this list you will' see the materials which compose this rebellion, and the J;lecessity there is of the wisest and most vigorous measures to quell and suppress it. Instead of that laudable spirit which you approve, which makes a people watchful over their liberties and alert in the defense of them, these mobbish insurgents are for sapping the foundation , and destroying the whole fabric at once. But as these people make up only a small part of the state, when compared to the more sensible and judkious . . . I cannot help fl attering myself that they will prove salutary to the state at large, by leading to an investigation of the causes which have produced these commotions. Luxury and extravagance both in furniture and dress had pervaded all orders . . . and was hastening fast to sap their independence by involving every class of citizens in distress, and accumulating debts upon them which they were unable to discharge. . . .

Jefferson writing to Madison, January 30, 1787 I am impatient to learn your sentiments on the late troubles in the Eastern states. So far as I have seen, they do not appear to threaten serious consequences. Those states have suffered by the stoppage of the channels of tl1eir commerce ... this must render money scarce and make the people uneasy. This uneasiness has produced acts absolutely unjustifiable: but I hope they will provoke no severities from their governments . . . [Those in power] may conclude too hastily tl1at nature has formed man insusceptible of any other government but that of force, a conclusion not founded in truth, nor experience . . . Malo periculosam libertatem quam quietam servitutem. [I prefer perilous liberty to quiet servitude.] Even tl1is evil is productive of good. It prevents a degeneracy of government and nourishes a general attention to tl1e public a£-· fairs. I hold it that a little rebellion now and then is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical . . . It is a medicine necessary for tlle sound health of government . . . Letter to Madison, January 30, 1787 . Jefferson, Papers, XI, 92-93. Jefferson writing to WilliamS.

'1i " Sh~ys's " Rebellion Leher.from Thomas Jefferson to Edward Carrington, January,.l787: The tumult in America [Shays's Rebellion], I expected would have produced in .Europe an unfavorable opinion of our political state. But 'it ·has not. On the contrary, the small effect of those tumults seems to have given more confidence in the · firmness of our governments. The interposition of the people themselves on the side of the government has had a great effec~ on the opinic>'n over here. I am persuaded myself that the good sense of the people wili always be found to be the best army. They may be led. astray for a moment but will soon correct themselves~ The people are the only censors of their governors; and even their errors will tend to , keep these .(the governors·or officeholders] to the true principles of their institution. To punish. these errors too severely wouldJ>e to suppress the the only saf~guard of the public liberty. The way to prevent these [reb~llions] .. . of the people is t9 give them full information. . . ~ The basis of our government being the opinion of the people . . . and were it left to me to decide whethei· we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I shol;lld not hesitate for · a moment to prefer the latter. 5 Member of Congress from Virginia 3 'i To ] anies Madison 622 b fth · · e numers o esc: people amo~~ in Massachusetts to about one fifth Pat:t of several populous Counti~s, and to them .may be collected, people of similar sentiments from the States of ~ode Isla.nd, Connectic~t, &;.

It joins the two extremes of Monarchy and Democracy and forms that Glorious balance of Power which checks Usurpation !unlawful seizure of power! and Tyranny in the throne and equally checks the Power in the hands of the people. It appears evident from the nature of governm ents that Republics can flourish or answer the end of Society only in Countries of Small size. We have heard much said in favor of the Glorious Liberty we have obtained by independence. But let us stop a moment and count the Cost . Before the American Revolution England stood in the same Relationship t o u s as a Parent does to his child. She was hon orable amoung the nations. Like the Lionness in the forest her voice protected her young wherever it went. Her Arm·she extended over these Colonies. When our enemies invaded us She sent her veteran troops Commanded by some of the greatest Generals Europe ever boasted. They United with Americas Sons to Drive our enemies from our borders. With their blood they bought us the victory! These were the most flourishing most happy days America ever saw. But in that fatal hour in which the Sword of the American Revolution was drawn, this pleasing Scene was changed. Worry and distress sat on· every face. Fifty thousand souls fell victims to this Cruel war. Our Towns and lands were laid waste. Our Fathers, Brothers, and Children in thousands fell around us. Our Breavest youth in the gay mom of Life were cut off by untimely Death. Where ere we turned our Eyes we saw the breathless corpse. Mourning and sorrow Continually sounded in our Ears. To these we must now add the flood of Luxury and vice introduced by this unnatural war. The vices have Corrupted our former honest simple manners and will soon fix us down in abject Slavery and ripen u s for heaven's severest Judgment. Add to these an immense debt foreign and domestic. Here then is a Sacrifice of Life, Virtue, and property. To gain what? An imaginary Liberty! Are we more free than we used to be? We enjoyed under Great Britain all the Liberty Consistent with good government. What has since been added is but immoral behavior. Thus we are without money, Trade, and permanent Alliances. Our repeated Attempts to supply the Defficiency of money by a paper Currency have destroyed our national Faith at home and abroad. The large size of each State together with their Different manners and Customs fills them with Jealousies and animosities towards each other and prevent their giving to Congress that Power which is absolutely necessary in aU governments. Our public officials are more numerous now than ever they were under the British Administration. Adapted from.

A convention of delegates in Hampshire Cozmty, Massachusetts, ad071ts a "Schedule of Grievances," in I 786. At a meeting of the delegates from fifty towns in the county of Hampshire . . . the convention from a thorough conviction of great uneasiness . . . upon mature consideration, deliberation and debate, were of opinion, that many grievances and unnecessary burdens now lying upon the people, are the source of . . . discontent. Among which the following articles were voted as such, viz. 1st. The existence of the Senate [whose membership was restricted to large propertyowners). · 2d. The present mode of representation. 3d. The officers of government not being annually dependent on the representatives of the people, in General Court assembled, for their salaries. 4th. All the civil officers of government, not being annualJy elected . . . 8th. The unreasonable grants made to some of the officers of government. 12th. The present mode of taxation, as it operates unequally between the polls and estates, and between landed and mercantile interests. An Address to the People of the several towns in the county of Hampshire, now at arms. Gentlemen, We have thought proper to inform you of some of the principal causes of the late risings of the people . . . _ r st. The present . . . mode of collecting debts, which by reason of the great scarcit-y of cash, will of necessity fill our gaols [jails] with unhappy debtors . . . 3d. A suspension of the writ of Habeas Corpus, by which those persons who have stepped forth t.o assert and maintain the rights of the people, are .liable to oe taken and conveyed even to the most distant part of the Commonwealth, and thereby subjected to an unjust punishment. 4th. The unlimited power granted to Justices of the Peace and Sheriffs, Deputy Sheriffs, and constables, by the Riot Act . . . Furthermore, Be assured that this body, now at arms, despise the idea of being instigated by British emissaries, which is so strenuously propagated by the enemies of our liberties: And also wish the most proper and speedy measures may be taken, to discharge both our foreign and domestick debt.
