Elijah Miller Constable


At a legal meeting of the Inhabitants of the town of Han- over holden at the South meeting house in said Hanover on thursday the sixteenth day of Feby Anno Domini 1809-at one O clock P.

Resolved Ist That it is the duty and unalienable right of the Citizens of this State, especially in times of public danger and


247


TOWN RECORDS


distrefs, to afsemble in an orderly and peaceable manner and " consult upon the common good."


2nd That the present crisis is distrefsing and alarming and imperiously calls for the unanimity, vigilance, firmnefs, and patriotism of all the real friends of our Country.


3rd That in former years the sober habits, the persevereing industry, and enterprise of our fellow citizens, under the fos- tering care of government and the smiles of Providence were crowned with succefs ; and by the blefsings of Providence on our industry the year past, our harvests have been abundant, no pestilence hath raged-no war hath desolated-and yet our fellow citizens are now impoverished and distressed and the national resources are rapidly diminishing .-


4th That in our opinion the Act laying an embargo on our ships and vessels pafsed at the last session of Congress and the several acts supplementary thereto have in their operation occasioned our present distresses-for which we have no con- solation of a patriotic nature. If we view them as measures of coercion they seem to operate almost wholly on ourselves- and as respects the two great belligerents, one of those nations gives it her unqualified approbation, and the other treats it with perfect contempt If we consider them as measures of precaution and preservation, being in their terms perpetual and implying [264] an abandonment of our rights on the ocean, they are too humiliating to comport with the spirit and dignity of a great, free and independent nation-and too dis trefsing and expensive to consist with the vital interest of our Country.


5th. That we consider the late acts of Congress to enforce and render more effectual the several acts before refered to as fraught with ills still more alarming being repugnant to a just construction of many of the most sacred articles in our bill of rights and constitution of government and to our apprehension should it be carried into effect its continuance will forbode a train of calamities to our Country-which may Heaven avert ! among others that which excited so much "anxious solicitude " in the mind of our revered Washington-" a sep- aration of the States " An event we should as deeply deprecate


248


HANOVER N. H.


as any next to a deprivation of our constitutional rights. This act we are with reluctance compelled to view as impolitic, arbitrary, and unconstitutional in its most striking and alarm- ing traits which are the following-It attempts to transfer legis- lative and Judicial powers to the Executive, and Judicial to the military-It would subject our property and possefsions to unreasonable searches and seizures and without legal warrant from the civil magistrate-It substitutes the secret orders and instructions of the President in the place of good and whole- some laws publicly and deliberately pafsed by the Legislature, and attempts to give them the same solemnity and effect- It attempts to preclude the citizens from the benefit of a trial by jury in certain controversies concerning property-Its exe- cution will violate the eighth [265] article of the amendments to the constitution of the United States which declares that " excefsive bail shall not be required "-nor excefsive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted,,-


The Agents of the Executive, under his orders, may upon the impulse of suspicion and belief, pronounce this meeting illegal, enter into this afsembly interrupt our deliberations and forcibly disperse us-It submits to the command of the Exec- utive and his agents the land and naval forces and the militia of the United States to enforce some of its dangerous provi- sions-and in fact attempts to place our Country-in this time of peace under a kind of military law which is repugnant to the principles of Republican freedom, and has ever been a direct step towards despotism .-


6th. That those members of Congrefs who have so ably opposed the pafsage of these laws, and so nobly encountered the various difficulties of a personal and public nature which have so closely invested them have displayed that wisdom and enlightened zeal, that patriotic fortitude and patience which the importance of the subject required and which highly merits the notice respect and acknowledgements of all their fellow citizens-


7th. That the early application of a constitutional remedy for the grievances of which we thus complan, is highly necefsary- and which [while] we freely and we believe justly animadvert


249


TOWN RECORDS


upon the measures of government, we ought not to pass with- out just reprehension the inexcusable delinquencies of our- selves and fellow citizens in the exercise of the right of suf- frage-We have important duties to perform in a iniform and promt attendance at the poll and in an honest and wise bestowment of [266] offices- On this depends the welfare of our Country-By these means are existing evils to be remedied-


8th That we will support the constitution of this State and the United States-and are ready with our lives and fortunes to aid in any constitutional measure of the general government tending to the security honor and prosperity of our Country- But while we would inculcate and practice respect for just laws and discountenance irregular opposition to those that are griev- ous, we shall at all times esteem it our duty to guard our con- stitutional rights in a manner becoming freemen as well as against domestic as foreign violence and agrefsion-


Voted that a copy of the foregoing resolutions be published in the Dartmouth Gazette-
