pair Of hands outside prison worth ten pair inside;
therefore, in his humble capacity he would try to
serve his country in the dry details of business-tho
league and the clubs 1t was desirable that their
mics shoudnot takethem at disadvantage, and there
fore the people ought to be organised in clubs and in
different localities Those clubs would be- of course,
unaImed but nevertheless 1t was the constitutional
right of every in these countries to possess

unsrmed but they should send forward their returns
