not be accuseu of injustice and that the
person against whom a judgment is passed
will be satisfied that justice lias been
aciiiiinistereo in his case and that the
judge i.as been impartial. 15y means of
these,the rights of the individuals will
be protected.
Second: As we form the majority of the inhabitants

it is but just that we snould be represent­

with th-e proportionate number.
• Third: We re.Auest you to do us justice by restor­
