cred a cause ;7-4vben she was spending millions
of her treasure in endeavouring' to pull down one
of the most formidable and dangerous tyrants that
ever disgiaced the form of man ;—when groaning
Europe was almost at her lase _gash—when she
alone shewed an undaunted front, basely did
those assassins endeavour to-stab her from her
race. She has turned on them, renovated from
the bloody but successful struggle. Europe is
happy and fre'e, and she now hastens justly -to
avenge_ the.unpro-voked insults. Shew them that
you are nor collectively unjust ; leave that con-
temptible few to shift for themselves ; let these
slaves of the Tyrant send an embassy to Elba,
and implore his aid, but let every honest upright
American spurn them with merited contempt.
After the experience of 21 years, can you any
longer support these brawlers for licentiousness,
who call it freedom ? • Be no longer their dupes ;
accept of my offer ; every thing I have promised
in this paper, I guarantee to you on the _sacred
honour of a British Officer.

.TO FITS ROYAL HIGHNESS THE PRINCE REGENT,
THE MUMBLE ADDRESS AND PETITION oF.THE
HABITANTS OF THE PROVINCE OX LOWER CA

NADA.
May it please dour Royal Ifighness,
We, his Majesty's most dutiful and loyal subjects, the In,
habitants of the Province of Lower Canada, humbly approach
the sacred person of your Royal Highness,,to express our ap-
prehensions on our having observed Addresses made by a
number of individuals residing tunonst us, some of whom
are Members 'of the Executive Council,. with a view to 'pro-
cure changes in the Constitution of tins Province, and cen-
suring the Administration of his Excellency the Governor in
Chief.

This proceeding, on their part, lnss excited aiarm thrnuls-
out the province, and led to a belief that the intrigues which
were formerly in operation to injure its inhabitants in the
opinion aif his Majesty's Government and the Mother Coun-
try, have again been resorted-to, for the purpose of repre-
senting us as unworthy of a free Constitution, and that
,changes therein are become neces:•arY for the presei ration of
this important part of his Majesty's Dominions.
We entreat your Royal Highness to be persuaded, that
such insinuations are entirely groundless. .We are sincerely
attached to the Constitution which his Majesty's Government
has been' graciously Isleased to confer on us. It has 'left us
nothing to desire, but to see its execution rendered snore and
more perfect.
We humbly represent to your Royal Highness, that it is
chiefly fr, t that Constitution'that the means have been de-
rived which have saved the country from the perfidious at-
tack of the United States. It is the Constitution which has
shewn us thefull value of the British Government; and well
humbly hope that the continuance of that Government, as it
at present exists, will be considered by your Royal Highness
as a just reward for our humble ts in its defence. .

• OUT. confidence int his Excellency Sir George, Prevost is un-
abated. By the wisdom of his Government, and 'UN,: re-
sources of his genius: He has proved himself superior to the
crisis in which the country was placed at the commencement
of the war.

Far from -following the steps of his predecessor, he ac-
quired the affection of the Cauadians, by hiS mildness and
justice. His memorable defence of the province has enileared
him to all its inhabitants, and'will transmit his name to our
latest posterity with veneration and gratitude.
We most humbly entreat your Royal Highness to maintain
us in the full enjoyment of the Constitution, as established
by law, without any alteration whatsoever,' and we also en-
treat your Royal • Highness to continue your gracious appro-
bation of the service of his Excellency the Governor in Chief,
by preserving him at. the bead of the Government, as long us
-the interests of the Empire will permit.
We also humbly pray that your Royal Highness would causer
instructions to be given to his • Excellency, to recommend to
the Provincial Legislature the appointment of a Colonial
Agent, to reside at the seat of the Imperial Government.
And your Petitioners-, as in duty hound, will ever pray.
