Puritan Consistency. --A historian of the Puritans, in writing some twenty-five years ago, remarks that "it is irresistibly amusing to see how the Puritans copied England in bad things, though all the while bitterly abusing her. They ventured a revolution, because taxed without their own consent, but they had nevertheless adopted such a principle as quite right for them." They never hesitated to tax English property, wherever they could, by any pretence, lay their hands on it. Mr. Feit, one of their writers, admits, that as early as 1639, "they ordered persons here, (Salons, Mass.) and throughout the colony," who owned estates in England, to be taxed for them. These persons owning these estates, were not allowed to vote in Puritan councils, nor be so much as freemen, unless they owned the Puritan covenant. Without representation, without a title to so much as the elective franchise, they might be taxed for estates situated under another Government, three thousand miles away, an

Without representation, without a title to so much as the elective franchise, they might be taxed for estates situated under another Government, three thousand miles aport. Who does not see that their outcry against the taxation of England without representation was miserable pretext, especially when that taxation was looked upon by England as but as equivalent for charter privileges? Another example of Puritan inconsistency in thus referred to by our author. They thought it vast indignity for the English to call us rebels.

there never was a more unfounded rumor — never a more idle tale — and that judicial murders were perpetrated on the face of the earth more intolerable, more inexcusable, more without palliation, than the act to which a refer. How different was it at Boston, at the time of what was called the massacre of Massachusetts subjects by British forces. The soldiers, on being indicted, sought for counsel, and they found two men of great eminence in the profession to act for them. One of them was Mr. Adams, and the other Mr. Quincy.

The advocate is of very little use in the days of prosperity and peace — in the periods of reposits, in protecting your property or aiding you to recover your rights of a civil nature.

Many years ago, while we were yet colonies of Great Britain, there occurred on this Island what is known as the famous negro is surrection — the result of an idle story, told by a worthless person, and yet leading to such an inflammation of the public mind that all the lawyers who then practised at the bar of New York and it is the greatest stigma on our profession of which the world can furnish an example, refused to defend the accused parties. One of them was a poor priest of. I believe, foreign origin. The consequence was that numerous convi
