grand tour to Niagara and the Lakes, he makes the
best of his way to the scat of government of the Uni

many miles of soil polluted by the footsteps Of
slavery, and whilst he perses the well written "Decla
ration of Independence which he secs framed and
hung up in the best paror of his patriotic landlord,
and dwells on the simple fact that we hold these truths
to be self-evdent that all men created equal"

sources of vir,ue-so struggle must and will a.
| rise, when power is sought for thro the forms oil
legislation, with view to efficient taxaton-and
however gentlemen may debate this question in
the simple way Of reference to numbers, yet, Sir,
the people will force those who are TO do this
work, the duty OF modifying such rights, which
men agree TO be conventional, and subject to
| modification. Sir, the very nature Of governme ut
implies protection, TO rights oil property we'll
personal rights; aud the great mass OF legislation
is directed towards proprietary interests. Ii has
been said, however, that no design was entertain
ed oil hiking any rule Of action for tho Convention,
oy any thing which was settled here. And yet,
the same geiieinen say, the county representa-
ton will give a law 10 that body. Sir we do not
expect the influence 10 spring from what we may
do here, unaided by thetorce Of public opinion;
but we do know that system of county
presentation. is dear to the peope-,hat those tho
seem TO disregard lis popular character, in this
debate, are only willing to set it aside for the time,
but to receive again into favor, when il shall
longer be found necessary TO gain an object, by an
apparent indifference to its merits Sir, this sub
jcct turns here, ON the effort for power; and the
policy Of this bill is TO be used the direct agen
cy OF something which is 10 follow. Gentlemen
know, that the call of Convention i'm any way
Will be compliance with the vote Of the people.
Their great desga IL to have the controul, and
they do not look to the agreement of tie parts
much as they do TO the separation OF the parts.
However varied, concordant or balanced il may be
IN the form OF representation by countes-yet they
are willing TO attempt new pan-and the cate
CORY OF their views is equivalent 10 the single de-
sire of power. One thing, however, is certain,
because it rests upon the moral purposes OF the
community, the ability of the people to give a
direction to the machine OF their own government;
and peaceful drec,ion---lhs, amidst all our dis
cussion, Is the last resort and il will satisfy my
views. But, Sir, in conclusion, he, me say that
| take to myself no part of the accusations made a
gainst the anti convention part Of the House, of
wish TO defeat the object we engaged in
effcc;ing. On this part of my duty, will repre-
sent my constituents, with all my zeal and my
best judgment, and will, if possible, give their
sanction as far as depends me. In the rear Of
this discussion, l iind myself, very little has
been left Tor me TO donor shan make an uu-
grateful return 10 the House, by protracted ar
gument.
