kingston 61ft i have several reasons which satisfy my own mind for thus publicly addressing you i am sorry to see your constituents thwarted in every measure for the well be ing of their town contrary to all reason and fair dealing kingston has been com pelled to forego many important privileges and institutions to the rival claim nf york this n ill be traced to the doings of interest ed men and has its origin io the heads of our provinces executive i have for somevoms been an inhabitant of kingston aod ohserved its progress with a keen interest from nature it possesses very important local advantages and un der the fostering hand of the mothercoun- try now presents a general appearance ifci a i i aj wjuj u i vui a tavaiot for midable rock of defence for the rights of r upper province it is the centre of the provinces commercial relations tho largest and most populous ofherlownsand at enterprising leader in nil public improve ments it fears no rival io loyalty and poo- he spirit and being already the most eli gible object in public opinion it only re quires a fair and unbiased hearing from his majestys ministers to be elevated to the seal of government in upper canada you are now a public officer of the co lonial government nnd at tho same tiraea member of the legislature for this town from the former situation you will have an opportunity nf pressing on the minds of the executive the injustice hitherto dono to kingston and ns its representative you will uaturally feel an interest in tho prospe rity of your constituents both iu a literary and commercial point of view you are aware sir that kiugston was many years ago intended by thoso then at the head of the executive iu thu province for thescito of a public grammar school that a sum of money was appropriated for a suitable building with salaries for a prin cipal and submasters that a master rev mr wilson was appointed for it with a suitable salary who for a short time exercised his functions as teacher but was mnn removed and tho salary and other funds were transferred for the support of n school at york as 1 understand now i should like to know by uhat autho rity this was effected i believe by no o- thcr than t0 ruling party at york aud the education again we must look to york with all its cxpeosive accompaniment otherwise submit to have them educated in a foreign republican seminary aod thus nurtured io principles to which we nre strangers i shall oot at present advert to the con duct of a majority of the executive coun cil in refusing a charter to the proposed commercial bank for this place after hav ing passed the house of assembly in two different sessions by a large majority but shall conclude in the hope that you will he able to convince the cxecutivegovemmeot of the injustice hitherto done to kingston by opposing every effort towards her im provement i am c radical kingston 12th march 1831 8 v mr chronicle i beg you will ex- cose me for not sooner living you the se quel of my first letter but really the re peated calls of ray goad customers requir ed my presence so much behind the coun ter flint i have had but little time to de vote to our itinerant philosopher now proceed the magistrate observing so large ft crowd collected among which were a good dumber of respectable yeomen felt him self forced into the attitude of a public speaker he therefore summoned his for ces in the best manner to suit tho occasion and went on as follows gentlemen what i have already soid to yon has merely been a brief reca pitulation but now i find myself pledged to sustain in some degree the orator and to attempt a regular speech the respec tability and the number of my audience seem to require it i shall therefore do the best i can nod beg of you to regard my efforts on this occasion purely as flowing from a sense of loyalty to the kiog and of justice to ray fellow subjects let us then follow up the isms owenisrn we have dispatched i will next call your attention to wrightism iu touching nu this most detestable ism 1 am most happy to observe among you several fathers of families aod several fine lookiog young men who io all probability intend sooner or later to commit matrimony this strolling philo sopher professes himself an admirer of tho filthy and execrable doctrines of this beastly female atheist no doubt he fan cies that you would he honorod by listen ing to a phillipic against the tyranny of lawful wedlock but you fathers whose chaste uauphtcrs are an honor to their pa- swuts ami a credit ie the neighborhood is it possible that you could so tar degrade them and yourselves as to give the least possible countenance to the ruthless mon ster who would instil into their minds the deadly poison of the principles of fanny wright and you youog meocoum you consent to take wives from a common bro thel heaven forbid tho supposition could you then tolerate the wretch who would drive female vittue out of the world aod plunge mans better half into the foul sty of indiscriminate debauchery 7 i will not insult your good sense by supposiog it possible but look ye here these wor thies cannot perform their assassin ma- cbinatioos without attacking the princi ples of religion they know that while a person lives by the bible it is in vain to preach up to him their accursed doctrines free inquiry therefore must first free you of religious belief then of religious feelings then of a repugnance io actual vice and lastly of the sense of shame this is thesole object offree inquiry aod you see what reason you have for imbibing tho damnable doctrides of robert dale owen nothing will sooner contribute to this than the destruction of female virtue flndtlienco infidelity never fails attacking it by means of loose principles let us next pay our respects to universal suffrage and equal rights they assure ns that all men are equal and that government and freedom cannot exist together but how arc all men equal are all equally know ing equally capable of gaining informa tion and nf getting and keeping property i gvery thing of the kind among those who n proue to iodolcncc it presents to him o motive to that laudable ambition to be io owner nf a farm which i have so often bjitnessed with the highest satisfaction in upper canada with us o right to vote is j certificate of good character but n here univorsal suffrage prevails a vote is no re- commendaiiou whatever and it is no cre- jjit to a man to he voted into office by per- on destitute of character the snvcreigo majesty of a gang of ragamuffins cannot certainly confer very high honors on any one i would far rather have the voles of jen freeholders who became such by ho nest industry than of all the paupers io preat britain ireland nnd america here the audience gave three hearty jtheers i have often thought that the levelling tjoctriues of universal suffrage aud equal rights ought to he classed wiih univeraal- sm in religion they all seem to me to ave originated in the same manafactory iow lniversalism claims eternal happi ness nn a scheme much like thatofuui- iersal suffrage it requires no character mean nn good one it assures solvation ijp the most desperate villains in existence od nothing can be too filthy to he the ob- ct of its kind regard it makes all men qual namely it recognizes no bad ones jjnd makes provision to encourage no good ones

against the prayer of this potitioo it may not there fore bo amiss to advert its a few words to thn history of the bank question thele- pislature passed an act in the year 18 incorporating a bank to bo established at this place but in consequence of the ca pital being too large the measure being opposed by the officers of government at york aud tho inhabitants of this place at that time not being able to raise sufficient funds the period allowed by tho charter forthe bmk to go into operation expired before the necessary arrangements were completed the officers of the civil go vernment then took the bank under their special protection as they had formerly done with our school funds it is almost needless to trace their steps they frst procured an act of the legislature to reduce tbc stock of the bank by onehalf the governoroo be half of theproviocewas next authorised to take one quarter of the tock thus reduced upou which tho bank was forthwith put in operation from the above statement it will appear llint the officers of goverumcntactuated by selfish moiives used tho influence with which they were invested to supplaot tho founder of the bunk which they effected that the bank under its present direction and possessing such a stockholder could not tail to succeed now had the people of kiogiioo beeu afforded tho same facili ties their object would havo been gained nnd the value of

is not every human being a perfect match in all respects for every other human being that so they might balance their equality nnd settle down like a peol of slagoant water but they say there is no god chance is their deity yet he has not chanced to produce the claimed equality aod it is a great chance if he ever does we own that all meu havo rights but that all have equal rights we must deny till we see all men reduced to a perfect level our just rights consist io each one getting what he can by honest industry and having its enjoyment protected by public law but i never cap believe that every beggar has an equal right to my farm with myself they con nect universal suffrage with their equality they assert that every man ought to havo a voice and a hand in the affairs nf state and make and unmake government as of ten as the majesty of a mob of beggars might wish it but let us see if a restrirtcd suffrage is not more compatible with tho puhlic good you all know gentlemen that a spur to industry is a good aud valua ble thing property and respectability are generally found together we will go no farther than to our town meetings nooo but freeholders can vote at them- if eve ry body could it might happen that a few persons not worth a shilling might pass town laws affectiug the properly of free holders in which they would uot have a word to say no freeholder would relish this he could not feel his earoidgs secure ho could oot fiod mutual insurance with those who like himself would take care of his neighbour in order to have his neigh bor take care of him- our pioseot system of restricted suffrago is a great eocourage- meut to enterprise to havo a voto at au electiou is in some sense to have a cha racter it proves that a man has the spi rit of a man especially if bo began
