B
(a) Outrages may
seem vague and
declamatory. But
it is one of the two
legal words upon
which the whole
system of Government
is made to turn
in the
Act 267 G. 3 c. 2.
the No .
Act.
of the wrong
terms of reprobation
here employed, the
use would be found itunitly justified
by the forming
of law and fast
demonstrated. If
the present administration
redress the
grievance, the hostility
of the staff may be
softened: if not, it
must be detained &
sharpened, that among
the body of the people
such as may think
Magna Charta ,
the Bill of Rights, of
the Habeas Corpus
Act worth preserving,
may conceive a first
alarm, and give a
constitutional expression
to their feelings.
(b) As a pledge of
responsibility the title

professional description
as well as my name.

I. Powers necessity
§. Legislative powers
necessary
Power of making
regulations is necessary
every where - more
particularly in a
new Colony than in
an Old Government.
p. 7.

2.
Is a power of legislation.
p. 7

3.
In feudal times the
want of it was felt
here. p. 7.

4.
It is more urgent
1. in an infant Colony
p. 7. than in an old
refurbished stale. p. 7.

5.
2. In a community
composed chiefly
of outcasts, than in
one ordinarily composed.
p. 8.

6
3. In a dependency thus
distant than in the
Eastern, as but half, 1/2
as or the Western, as
but 1/4 the distance.
p. 8.

7.
Founding a Colony
is creating the necessary
assortment
of the powers of
government in it —
No foundation
without it. p. 8

8
Judicial power is
not sufficient. p. 9

9
If the <add><hi rend="underline">actual</add></hi> existence of
such legislative
power be not
necessary, as any
rate the belief of
it is. p. 10

10
No legislative power
was created at the
outset as or has been
since. The only N. S. Wales Act 27.
G. 3. c. 2. creates
nothing but judicial.
p. 10*
