'T'HE Americans affert they have both Conftitutional and Charter Rights to grant their own Money for public Services, wherein they appear to me extremely right, as they would appear evidently to me, to be alfo, in their conftitu- tional Plea of their Fellow Subje6ls, the Commons in Par- liament, having no conftitutional Right to tax them, if they had therein, and at fame Time annexed and conjoined In the fame Plea, as Parr thereof, thefe Words without granting us a Reprefentation in the Parliam
...ent ^ in order we may plead in our own Caufe, concerning the Taxation of our own Property : 1 fay, if they had in their Plea added this abfolutely need- ful conftitutional Part, I for one ftiould have abfolutely juftify'd their Remonftrances, but fo far from annexing this to their Plea, to mnke it conftitutional, the Boftonian turbulent Remonftrances, fooliflily aft^rts the Impraflica- bility of a Reprefeiitation in their Favour, on Account of their ( S7 ) their local CIrcumftances, which Objeftlon appears to com- mon Senfc merely fuperficial, fince 'tis well known many Voyages have been perform'd from Bofton to England in twenty Days, and in fome Cales lefs than a Month is no uncommon Length for fuch Voyage, and may be (to any Member eledled in America) perform'd nearly as foon, and at much lefs Expencc, compared with a Journey of a Scotch Member from the Northern Places of Eledion, in that Part of Great Britain, to London ; fo does their fupercilious Subterfuge evaporate like Smoke, and without want of Cha- rity, appears to have arifen from an inglorious, felfifh Prin- ciple, of making ufe of a conftitutional Plea (partially and very imperfe6lly confidered) to get themfelves exempt from all Taxation towards the Expence of Civil Govern- ment, Protection and Defence, which upon a candid Exa- mination, muft to the intelligent and impartial, appear ab- furd, unjuft, felfifh, and totally inconfiflent with their Duty and Allegiance, as alfo to the Golden Rule, of doing as they would be done by.
