Excerpt from Copies of Letters, Read in the Legislative Council in the Debate Upon the Clergy Reserve Bill: January 17, 1840
The neglect of this principle of overturning repub licanism in former periods, by giving support and assistance to those causes which are perpetually offering themselves, to effect so necessary an object, is much to be lamented; but it is my duty to be as solicitous as possible, that they may now have their due influence, if I wish the proposed government to he a permanent one; and I am happy to feel the utmost conviction, that the best mode of population, and the best line of connexion, with the United States, is combined in giving due support to that church establishment, which I consider as necessary to pro mote the national religion, of which I am a, sincere and humble believer, and to maintain the true and venera ble constitution of my country.
