17 July 1802 N.S. Wales
Conduct
III. Non exist. proved
2. In the case of a Colony acquired any other way
than by conquest and in particular in the case of all
English Colonies at that time in existence the right of
legislation in the Crown alone is disaffirmed: and a
in such the affair through under the condition of if being
exercised with the consent of an Assembly of the
Colony it is affirmed the right of the Crown to legislate

affirmed: yet the such affirmance is neither very distinct

in question as given above:
The French tyrants, if they had no justification, had at least
the plea of self-preservation for an excuse. The English

find so much as the shadow of an excuse?
The French nation, and all Europe sympathising
and the whole involved world in sympathy with it, cried
shame upon the monster with five heads. What
will they it now say of the single head, that organized this
untold tyranny?
Such is the crime a a sample at least of the crimes
of William Pitt. His successors, not daring to be innocent
when he has been is guilty, choose without rather to
be accomplices than avengers, or so much as disapprovers of this his guilt misdeeds And this conspiracy of present power with
ill-earned influence destination for the suppressionof law and justice - this conspiracy act of desparation
against the this the spring of selfish pusillanimity,
covers itself with the mask of respect
