THE
Mr. Collins,
I have inclofed you a New-Brunswick paper of
Sept. 28, 1784, containing some queries, which you
are direfled to put in your next paper, without fail.
MULTITUDE.
Mr. Kollock,
By publiJhing the following QUERIES, you will
oblige one of your Readers, who is neither a Tory
nor a Lawyer.
I am, Sir,
Tour Humble Servant,
A FARMER.
L not m °" °' the debts due from the poor
U and middle class of people in New-Jersey,
amount to less than twelve pounds? And is it not
transcendently humane in the Legislature of this state,
to keep open the courts of justice for the recovery of
such debts, whilst in mercy to the more wealthy, they
have given them the respite of a twelvemonth, for
debts exceeding that sum?
11. Is not that legislature worthy of the unani
mous applause of their conftituer.rs, and ought not
every tongue to be employed in extolling their wis
dom, who have at one Lffion passed two such glori
ous laws for the encouragement of trade as that for
efablifbing free Ports, and that for flopping the
Courts of Justice against the recovery of debts ?
111. Is it not very probable that after these wife
regulations, the naoney-holders in the neighbouring
states will become troublesome to the citizens of this
state, with their importunities to lend them money on
interest?
IV. Does not the following proviso, in the law
above referred to, breathe the most inviolable attach
ment to justice, and a peculiar regard for the good
people of this state? " Provided always, That the
fubjeds of the king of Great-Britain, or the fubje^s
of any foreign prince or state, may recover their debts
due from the citizens of this state, in the fame man
ner they might or cbuld have recovered the fame had
not this aft been passed."
V. Was it not prudent, politick, wife and just, in
the Legislature of New-Jersey, to make the publick
securities a lawful tender for the payment of all debts,
if the creditor has ever refufed or even evaded the re
ceipt of paper money—and will not this law prove a
cordial to the widow and orphan?
IT. Ought we not to expert the happiest conic-
dred and eighty-one, shall be, and they severally are
hereby repealed and made void.
2. Provided always, and be it further Enafled,
That each and every of the agents in the before-re
cited ads mentioned and named, shall be accountable
for all monies received, and all ads, matters ana
things, by them, or either of them, done or fuffered,
in the execution of the powers and trusts with which
they were vested in and by the said ads, or either of
them, before the passing this ad; and that all adions
commenced, or which may be commenced by the said
agents, or either of them, pursuant to the direction
of the said recited ads, or either of them, may be
proceeded in to judgment and execution ; and all bar
gains and leafed, whether written or paicle, and all
other ads or matters done or tranfaded by the said
agents, or either of them as aforefaid, pursuant to
the true intent and meaning of the said ads, or either
of them, shall be good and valid as though such ^ds
had not been repealed.
3. And be it further Enabled by the Authority
aforesaid, That no possession held under the agents
appointed by said laws, or any or either of them, by
any perlon or persons whatsoever, or held by any
person or persons in opposition to the authority of
said agents, or either of them, shall be considered as
an advantage to the said holder or holders; but the
said tenants, or any or either of them, and persons so
opposed to the authority of the said agents, or either
of them, shall be liable to be put out of possession in
the fame manner as they might have been ousted had
the said laws never been passed, any law, usage or
custom, to the contrary notwithstanding.
Passed at New-Brunswick, August 31, 1784.
