That Mao is formed for foetal life, h an obfervation which upon our firft enquiry prefents itfelf immediately to our view, and our reafbn approves that wife and generous principle which actuated the firft founders of civil government ; an inftitution which hath irs origin in the weaknefs of individuals, and hath for its end, the Jlrength and fecurity of all : And fo long as the means of effefting this important end, are thoroughly known and religioufly attended to, Government is one of the richeft Blefllngs to mankind,^. and ought to be held in the hlgh^ ve&eratioa^

In young and new-formed communities, the grapd <Jefign,of this* inftltution is moft generally underftood, and moft flriftly regarded ; the motives which urged to the focial compact cannot be at once forgotten, and that equality which is remembered to have fubfifted fo lately among them, prevents thofe who are cloathed with authority from attempting to invade the freedom of their Brethren ; or if fuch an attempt is made, it prevents the community from fufFering the offender to go unpuniflied : Every member feels it to be his intereft, and knows it to be his duty, to preferve inviolate the con- fVitution on which the public fafety depends*, and is equally ready to affift: the Magijlrate in the execution of the laws, and the fuhje6l in defence of his right ; and fo long as this noble attachment to a conftitution, founded on free and benevolent principles exifts in full vigor in any (late, /^^rftate mufl be flourirtiing and happy.

8 j4n Oration.

After various ftruggles, which during the tyfanDic reigns of the houfe of STUART, were conflantly kept up between right and wrong, between liberty and flavcry, the conneftioa between Great-Britain and this Colony was iettled in the reign of King William and Queen Mary by a compaft, the conditions of which were cxpreffed in a Charter by which all the liberties and immunities of BRITISH SUBJECTS were confirmed to this Pro- vince, as fully and as abfolutely as they poflibly could be by any human indrument which can be devifcd. And it is undeniably true, that the ^reateft and rooft important right of a Britifh fiibjeft is, that he Jljall be governed by no laivs but thofe to -which be either in perfon or bj his reprefentative hath given his confent : And this I will venture to aflcrt, is the grand bafis of Britifli freedom ; it is interwoven with the conftitution ; and whenever this is loft, the con- ilLtution muft be deftroyed.

Tii E Britl/Ij conftitution (of which ours is a copy} is a happy compound of the three forms (under fome of which all govern- ments may be ranged) viz. Monarchy, Atiftocracy, and Democracy : <:>t thefe three the Bntijl) hegijlature is compofed, and without the confent of each branch, nothing can carry with it the force of a law : in moft cafes, either the ariftocratic or the democratic branch may ■propofe a law, and fubmit it to the deliberation of the other two ; Kut^ when a law js to be pafied for raifing a tax, that law can origi- nate only in the democratic branch, which is the Houfe of Gomtaons

in 'Biitain, and the Houfe of Reprefentativca here The reason is .

ibvious : They, and their conftitwents are to pay much the largcft

part of it, but as the arlftrocratic branch, which in Britain, is the Houfe of Lords, and in this province, the Council, are alfo to pay fome part, their confent is neceffary ; and as the monarchic branch, which in Britain is the King, and with us, either the King in perfon, or the Governor whom he fhall be pleafed to appoint to aft in his ftead, is fuppofed to have a jufl: fenfc of his own interejl, which is that of all the fubjefts in general, his confent is alfo ne- ceffary, and when the confent of thefe three branches is obtained, the taxation is moft certainly legal.

Let us now allow ourfelvcs a few moments to examine the late

a{ls of the Briti/Jj parliament for taxing America Let us with

candor judge whether they are conftitutionally binding upon us : If they are, in the name of justice let us fubmit to them, without one murmuring word.

First, I would afk whether the members of the Britifli Houfe of Commons are the Democracy of this Province ? if they are, they are either the people of this province, or are elected by the people of this province, to rcprefent them, and have therefore a con^ ftitutional right to originate a Bill for taxing them : It is moft certain they are neither ; and therefore nothing done by them can be faid to be done by the democratic branch of our conftitution. I would next aflc, whether the Lords who compofe the ariftocratic branch of the Britiffi legiflature, arcPeers of America ? I never heard it was (even in thcfc extraordinary times) fo much as pretended,

and if they are not, certainly no aft of theirs can be faid to be fhc aft of the ariftocratic branch of our conftitution. The power of the monarchic branch we with pleafure acknowledge, refides in the King, who may aft either in perfon or by his reprefentative ; and I freely confefs that I can fee no reafon why a PROCLAMATION for raijing money in America iflued by the King's file authority, would not be equally confiftent with our conftitution, and therefore equally binding upon us with the late a^s of the Br'it'ijh parliament for taxing us ; for it is plain, that if there is any validity in thofe a^s, it muft: arife altogether from the monarchical branch of the legiflature : And I further think that it would be at leaft as equitable; for I do not conceive it to be of the leaft importance to us by whom our property is taken away, fo long as it is taken without our con- fcnt ; and I am very much at a lofs to know by what figure of rhetoric, the inhabitants of this province can be called free sub- jects, when they are obliged to obey implicitly, fuch laws as are made for rhem. by men three thoufand miles off, whom they know not, and whom they never have im powered to aft for them ; or how they can be faid to have property, when a body of men over whom they have not the leaft controul, and who are not in any way accountable to them, fhall oblige them to deliver up any part, or the whole of their fubftance, without even afking their confent : And yet, whoever pretends that the late afts of the Britifli parliament for taxing America ought to be deemed binding upon us, muft admit at once that we are abfolute SLAVES, and have no property of our own ; or elfe that we may be Free- men, and at the fame time under a, neceffity of obeying the arbitrary commands of thofe over

whom wc have no controul or influence ; and that wc may hAvF. PRO'PERTY OF OUR OWN, "which IS entirely at the difpofal of ano- ther. Such grofs abfurdities, I believe will not be relifhed in this enlightened age : And it can be no matter of wonder that the peo- ple quickly perceived; and ferioufly cotnplaincd of the inroads which thefe afts muft unavoidably make upon their Libertj, and of the hazard to which their ivhok property is by them expofcd ; for, if they may be taxed without their confent even tlie fmallen: trifle, they may alfo without their confent be deprived of every thing they poflefs, although never fo valuable, never fo dear. Certainly it never entered the hearts of our anceftors, that after fo many dangers in this then defolate wildernefs, theif hard-earned property fhould be at the dif- pofal of the Britifli parliament ; and as it was foon found that this taxation could not be fupported by reafon and argument, it feemed neceffary that one aft of oppreflion fhould be enforced by another, and therefore, contrary to our juft rights as poffcfling, or at leafl: having a juft title to poflefs, all the liberties and immunities of Britifli fubjefts, a ftanding army was eflabliflied among us in time of peace ; and evidently for the purpofe of effefling that, which it was one principal defign of the founders of the conftitution to pre- vent, (when they declared a ftanding army in time of peace to be AGAINST LAW) namely, for the enforcement of obedience to a^s which upon fair examination appeared to be unjuft and uncon- ftitutional.

Their baneful influence is moft fuddenly felt, when they are placed in populous cities ; for, by a corruption of morals,the public happinefs is immedi- ately affefted ; and that this is one of the effeifts of quartering troops in a populous city, is a truth, to which many a mourning parent, many a loft, defpairing child in this metropolis, muft bear a very me- lancholy teftimony. Soldiers are alfo taught to coofider arms as the only arbiters by which every difpute is to be decided between con- tending ftatcs ; they are inftrufled implicitly to obey their comman- ders, without enquiring into the juflice of the caufe they are engaged to fupport ; Hence it is, that they arc ever to be dreaded as the ready engines of tyranny and opprefllon. And it is too obfervable that they are prone to introduce the fame mode of decifion in the difputes of individuals, and from thence have often arifen great ani- mofities between them and the inhabitants, who whilft in a naked defencelefs ftate, are frequently infulted and abufed by an armed fol- dicry. And this will be more efpecially the cafe, when the troops are informed, that the intention of their being ftationed in any city, is to OVERAWE THE INHABITANTS. That, this was the avoweddefign of Rationing an armed force in this town, is fufficiently known ; and WE, my fellow-citizens have feen, wEhave felt the tragical effefts !

OF OUR BRETHREN, when ouf ears were wounded by the groans of the dyings and our eyes were tormented with the fight of the man- gled bodies of the dead. When our alarmed imagination prefented to our view our houfes wrapt in flames, our children fubjcfted to the barbarous caprice of the raging foldiery oar beauteous virgins cxpofed to all the infolenceof unbridled paffion, our virtuous wives endeared to us by every tender tie, falling a facrifice to their worfe than brutal violence, and perhaps like the famed Lucretia, dif- trafted with anguifh and defpair, ending their wretched lives by their own fair hands. When we beheld the authors of our diftrefs parading in our ftreets, or drawn up in regular battalia, as though in a hoflile city ; our hearts beat to arms ; we fnatched our weapons, almoft re- folved by one decifive ftroke, to avenge the death of our slaugh- TEREp BRETHREN, and to fecurc from future danger, all that we held raoft dear : But propitious heaven forbad the bloody carnage, and favcd the threatncd vi<5tims of our too keen refentnient, not by

efforts you urged the immediate departure of the troops from the

town —you urged it, with a refolution which enfured fuccefs you

The immediate aftors in the tragedy of THAT night were

furrendered to juftice, It is not mine to fay how far they were

guilty I they have been tried by the country and ACQUITTED of murder ! And they are fiot to be again arraigned at an earthly bar : But, furely the men who have promifcuoufly fcattered death amidft the innocent inhabitants of a populous dty, ought to fee well to it, that they be prepared to ftand at the bar of an omniscient JuDC E ! And all who contrived or encouraged the ftationing troops in this place, have reafons of eternal importance, to refleft with deep contrition on their bafe defigns, and humbly to repent of their impious machinations.

The infatuation which hath feemed for a number of years to prevail in the Britifh councils with regard to us, is truly aftonifhing ! What can be propofed by the repeated attacks made upon our free- dom, I really cannot furmife ; even leaving juftice and humanity out -of the queftion, I do not know one fmglc advantage which can arifc to the Britifh nation, from our being enflaved : I know not of any gains, which can be wrung from us by oppreflion, which they may not obtain from us by t>ur own confent in the fmooth channel of commerce : We wifli the wealth and profperity of Britain ; \vc contribute largely to both.

But, this cannot long be the cale furely, the BritifJj nation will not fuffer the reputation of their jufiice, and their honor, to be thus fported away by a capricious miniflry ; no, they will in a fhort time open their eyes to their true I'ntereft : They nourifti in their own breafts a noble love of Liberty, they hold her dear, and they know that all who have once poflcfTeJ her charms had rather die than fufter her to be torn from their em- braces— They are alfo fenfible that Britain is {o deeply interefltd in the profperity of the colonics, that (he muft eventually feel every wound given to their freedom ; they cannot be ignorant that more dependence may be placed on the affcftions of a brother, than on the forced fervice? of a slave They mull approve your efforts for the prefervation of your rights ; from a fympaihy of foul they muft pray for your fuc.cefs : Aaa I doubt not but. they will e'er long.
