The right Of choosing cur rulers, is ore Of
the most valuable privileges freemen pos
scss. But the constitution secures To the
people another right, which IS more vslua-
bic than even their elective franchise. II IL
that Of representing their grievances to the
government, and petitioning for relief The
situation, the people Of this country arc now
placed in, demands that they should exer-
else this right in a firm and dispassionate
manner. Government is instituted for the
protection of life, liberty, and property !;
and ii j. the bounden duty, and a solemn
trust confGed TO those who are designated
10 administer the government, to see that
these imporl ant objects are secured to their
constituents. If Congress, BY their laws
intsydictfzg ali commerce, and by imposing
gyie09ar and embarrassing restrictions on the
eoasfmg trade, have promoted the object for
which that body was constituted, no good
citizen or reasonable man will complain
But let us look at the present situation OF
the United States. Possessing a p0Pula-
ton Of Ere millions, and owning one million
tzgo hundred thousand tons Of shipping, am

THE Inhabitants Of the Town OF
Port and, in the Ditrid of Maine, in le-
gaI Towa-Mceting attended, Refped-
fully reprefcnt-That the peculiar embar-
railments under which they labor in cOn1e-
quence of the exiting laws Of Congrefs,
pafrd at their Taft fclIions, laying an En-
barge on the llips and velftls in the ports
& harbors Of the u. & otherwife inter-
diding and perplexing their commerce, &
the long and ievere pTivations they have
therby endured, have urged them at this
gloomy and alarming cuis, in cool and
diipafiiOnate manner to fate their griev-
anccs, and make their folemn appeal to
the jufice and pa,notfm Of your Excel
lency for their fpeedy relief. Your Me-
moriaiifs IN 70 doing, are Influenced by no
motives which they heiitate TO avOw.-
Prom principle, they reverence the laws !:
and will ever perform the duties of honef
men and faithful citizens-but al the fame
time they deem il their duty as well as
their acknowledged right, to adopt al con-
fitutional and proper meaiureS to procure
freedom from thofe evils, which they have
been and till are compelled to fufEer. In
the flruggle for Liberty and independence
they were doomed to behold their houits
in flames, their homes deierted and their
property in ruins. Since the organization
Of the Federal Government, they have
witnefed total change in the proiPe6t-
They have feen the Town rapidly riing
from its afhes 10 opulence and refpe6ta-
bllity, and crowned with the bleiIings Of
peace and profperity-the rich and the
natural fruit Of induhry cherilhed and pro-
tetted by the laws Of the country. At
preient the whole fcene is changed-their
commerce by its Introduction is deltroyed
their property is waiting before their
eyes-their exertions paralzed-their 10y
is turned to forrov-their hopes 10 DIFF
appointment, and the cuftomary fOurces
Of income and fubGfancr are drying away
around them. They do not here prefume
TO enquire into the conttitutionality or eX-
txpediency of the laws above mentioned,
dlltreling as they are in their operation,
but they fubmit whether the objects con-
femplated by Congrefs have been III any de-
gree attained, and whether the cOntinu-
snce Of fuch fevere refri6ions, infead of
Producing concefTions from foreign pow
ers will not terminate in lafing injury TO
the Union at large, and in the total ruin
OF thOufands who deicrve better fate
