ter number till, who, sm various rea-
fons, could not make it |nyenient to OBJ
tainsa hocie and lot. the provifcns of the
bill denied the right they ought Is and
.uisd to enjoy.
Mr.. Dennis hoped the motion 70 ffrike
out would not prevail, until it was known
What II was intended.to fubifitute, and
whether It would be an injurious principle.
Until it could be proved that better
courie could be taken, he aked, upon the
principle Of right, what right the people
Of Maryland had to expect the adoption
OF their uiage, more than that of Vngi-
MAI Some uniform ~ fem muf be adopt

iatisfadion inthe fate of Virginia, as to
their infragc = hebelieyed their iyRemve-
/ ~ good, and hould prefer 1t, except a
better were propofed.
MIR. Macon believed this fuffrape was
not 70 confined in every part of the fate
Of Virginia he believed in mott parts of
that fate every free man voted. He
wifhed to.extend the right of fuffrage as
tar as prudence could admit Of. If it was
poiiihle to diitinguilh as to character, he
would with to prevent bad men voting, but
no Others for he could not fee how col.

and property to come here, he believed
facts would favor the fyRem Of pretty
general iufrage. What town. had more
rapidly incresfed in numbers or in wealth
than Baltimore, and yet it had grown 70
under the Maryland fyflem. But where
IS the large town in. Virginia i-Why

MIR. Craik explained, that he did not
lay this or the other mode increafed the
population, but that the mode. advocated
@by gentlemen, might iuit the yeornanrv
very well, but in all large cities this pr;n.
ciple would operate very injurious 70 the
common interef.
Be that as it might, Mr.. Macon faid.
the principle he had advarced came with

contended that every free man ought 70

the1e people. But a Nd to tllefc,
there were many tenants o Hycar, who
poiieiitd great property, Vi extenive
trades, who would be entirely Rfanchifed
by this law. He wifhed to $ke out the
words; whether Others ihould BE inherited
CT not he would not fay, but his own OPT
mon was, that every man in this country,
being OF iutficientage, ought to be entitled
to vote for the government ullderwhith
ne lived, and to the iupport Of which he !
iauH bear his proportion however f1nall.
MIR. Craik belived it would be admitted
that when the ftuation Of this diArief, Of
part of Which he was a rcrrefentative
Came IN queRion,s he could claim at leaf as
much attachment for their intereR as the
gentleman laf up. But he could not.a-
gree with him that the government were
ahcu. to deprive them Of. the right they
heretofore enjoyed. Itwas very reafona-
bly, urged by iome ,gentlemenof much m
formation. that it was not the prefent go
Nernment who would or could take thefe
people out Of the hands: Of the two fates.
but, that iince they had made the ceflion,
r was an act Of the contribution, and if 20.
they certainly would not be- deprived Of
their right BY any act Of the houie but
II was intended to give them form Of 90
yernment calculated to their advantage.
Now, il, according to the arguments of
gentlemen, the withes and ufages. of the
people were to be coniulted, certainlythey
could not be Ignorant Of the practice of
very important part of this difriet fuch
part as lay in the fate of Virginia to elect
their representatives by the very.mode pro-
Poied in the bill. Therefore as the prac.
ficc et.thc two. parts Of the diltrief.was 20
Crroite 70 each other, no principle could
be reforted to which would command
preference over the other, except from It's
preferable ea;mation. Now lit was CON
i'dered that this city, in population, mutt
become the habitation of greater number
OF inhabitants than any other part Of the
country, i mutt give preference to fome
iuch qualification as this to pa erye the
reipeeability and order Of elections hut
y might very well fuit the yeomanry Of our
