of Massachusetts should, be .unfavor:
30166' COUIU, Hi an auiuuiur : ova-
sion of llie convention, deterrnijie for
biirselres and carry the act into full
effect, agreeable to . our- own under
standing oifUs provisions. Y f
y But in the report of the committee,
fixed to the act, We find; it' conceded,
that 1 expectations have been iuth
risedihtjthe legislature of Massa
chusetts: would conceit to the propo
sed separation, when ; the deliberate
wishes , of a majority of the people
should be (developed ip favor of the
measure.'! And we have no doubt
that, with the present ; commanding
majority Massac
fair and 'rational
lusetts will give such
interpretation to the
law, as shall carry into .effect the de
liberate wishes' of the people of
Maine ' , ' Y J ". " i -Y . i
Confident that a. separation must
be declared, your committee would
recommend that, as soon as may be,
a constitution "of government should
be prepared, to be presented to the
people of Maine! But as much time
and labor would1 be required, before
so important a document could be
matured, they would propose an ad-
iournment to some future day, anq
that a committee De appymicuu an
in the recess, and report a constitu
tion at' the next meeting- of the con
vention. ; t , - i
In this stane of the progress of the
people of Maine to independence, it j
is proper that fthev should apply to :
Uonirress tor tneir aumissuHi iuiu.u t
union. . It i important also, mat &
law be passed, that m case or separa
tlonour coasting trade should be se
cured -from additional erabarrassmont.
Should the legislature ?confirnf tlielr
consent," Congress, at their next ses
sion, would admit fisv iuto the union.
But should Massachusetts give an un
favorable interpretation of the act,
or refuse to modify it, as justice re
quires, Congress would decide, whe
ther, w'e have jnot complied witbilic
conditions unbrt which the consent of
Massachusetts was to be obtained.
I -Your comramittee have considered
the memorials' from iuhdry, inhabit
ants "of Mercerj and other towns, com
plaining, that they have no delegates
