      The company having again . admired the beautiful garden , the Chairman called -upon Mr . W . Govan 60 speak to the sen tiieent of liberty . . A ^ -. He roes and aaid : The aentfinent which * I have been appointed to speak to this evening is Liberty . A mighty and magnificent subject for Ihe orator to dilate on . One that the eloquence of a Cicero would be unable to do it that justice which it deserves : ' pi penrtray ihe blessmgs that would accrue to a people through it « - ' therefore one by fax too gigantic for me to . do . anything like jnstice to . As there are various deflniUons of this wioject , for the saie of order T ^ ahafi confine inyself exclusiyely to civil liberty , by which I beg to be nndez jstood , Ihe right of every-man having a Tolce ; in making those Jaws which he is bound to ebey . The happiness ,

      prosperity , and Contentment of a nation depend almost entirely upoii ^ he TKb&Os which itf peoplejxjssess . ibJa may be fully illuE&attd by oufoTni country . , Aland blessed with all that can . be conduclre to t&a happineM and coBifort of Sie peoplej " possessing natural advan ta ^ Tmequaltea > y anyo ^ eriiatto in * aeT / orldj yet wiaont' liberty , what are all these "blessings ? flhej are all monopolized and claimed ~ by the j drones of spdetyi while the poor Tiard working bees , who alone protuee all ihe wealth of pnrcotmby / are Swbbed * bl their share , and stink in alarery , misery , andjwretebei sess . It has been often aaid that tbere is more liberty enjoyed in Britain than id any other nation in the world . This t » a certain extent if admit There , is a liberty against which I as an individual , and a great

      , portion of the working classes ef this country . eomplalnj that is , the liberty which the aristocracy ^ have , or rather ihe liberty which they take—of governing ju against onr-will ; of passhigIvwb without out consent of creating swarms of locusts in the shape ' of kings , priests , placemen , pensioners , hired cut-throats , and sinecurlsts , who devonr Uia ^ rery "vitals of society . In fact , time would fail me were I to enter paiticnlarly into all the liberty which the aristocracy enjoy ; bat all the liberty which a great portion of the people possess , may be stated in a very few words : they have the liberty of obeying laws which they had no -voice in 1 Tnaktng , ana the honour of paying for aB . This laBritkS liberty ; and the -present state of , the ctiundry affords a practical proof of tbe isjnstice of such » Ticrrid system . Would society be in its present degraded andi enslaved posiion if raaJ liberty were established In oar land 1 I

      Tinhesftattngly answer , " no- it is impossible 1 " Por , in my opinion , true liberty can only exist wien equal justice is administered to all : to the queen sad to the beggir , to the rich and to the poor . Hber ^ jr ifl not a mere £ t > nnd—a mere shadow . No . ' it is a cause which tends to confer happiness on all mankind , j It is a cause for which a Wallace , a Ttll , : a Washingtoa , and thousands of other brave and noble patriots have fought and bled . They knew what liberty was , and they were determined to gain it , or die in [ the attempt Their motto was— "We win , we shall , we mast be free . " And , when engaged in its battles , the Tery remembrance of the cause for which they , ware sghtinglnfased sew -rigour into their soals—strength into their arms—and caused them to redouble their

      exertions , CT-f 3 g 3 ming Bt the same time , "liberty ' s ia every blow . " The poets , too ., h » W given -renSito thef * natural love of liberty in sosl-stirring and animating poems—praising the actions of those who have fought and bled in ths esuse , and delineating thelAesaings of liberty . Our national bard has truly said that ¦ 'liberty ' s a glorious feast ;** and my earnest desireia , ' thatall wonld partake of this " glorious feast , " ^ chich c an only be done by conferring egual-rights on * alL Bat , my friends , it is a well toowa fact , Umi many individuals who profess to be the friends and advocates of liberty look with some degree of astonishment at the proposition that all men should be egually esfranchisel . The ; appear to think that a man withosfc a ahllHng ' s worth of property in his possession , but who has obtained an

      honest livelihood by his own honest indottry , to be intrusted with political power would be exceedingly dangerous to the rest of the community . But I would ask , why ia the worMhg man ewsluded from the pale of tbe Cooatitatioa ? 'Why M herobfead of tis - » rw »^^ l lights and deprived of his BOCiSl pri-Tiltgesi converted into a asese feewetfof wood , ' a mere dratrer -of watar—a mere toiling BiacMne prodocing an enormous amount of wealth , which , after its prodoction , he is obliged to hand over to ethers to enjoy ? Is there any natural difference between the rich man and the poor man- ? Is there say evidence to prove that nature has doomed the working classes to be the base and servile slave * of tbe midtile and aristocratic classes- ? : If there is , poin-s it ont , ao that is future we may

      bowdown with submuston to toose whom € K > d has setnpas xrar superiors . It is said that the people have act intefij ££ X $ e enongh h > i the jndicj&ns Exercise of the franchise . Show me tbe difference between the pwtOeat aristocrat and the meanest peasant . Slow me that nature has established a difierence between the two ; and then 1 wiD acknowledge . that the poor hard-toiling peasant should be the slave of the other , and thai be on whose hrew was stamped the seal of aristocracy , should side ToBgh-shod over tho rights and liberties of tbe other . Take the child of the rich man and the abild of tha poor man , and you will find a complete similarity For alihongb aioney , title , and a gilded canopy awaited ths » ch xcss ' a ctnl& ai it » bircli—although- it was faTonyed with a royal smile cheering its infant clumbers ,

      aad althoogh it may sva ? sceptres or wear a crown , * when « nJ ? ed at maturity , yet aSer all , it possesses only the Bame natural sapabiliKes-and the sime germs . of intellect and moraJity , as tb » child bora Jbeneatbthe s&awroof ef the peasant , aad which was deomedirom its * very birth to be the slave of some proud ani oppressing tyrant . It has been assumed hy some indl > Tidsaih Qiat nature has given & preference to the rich over the poor ; but where is the evidence to prove the trati of CTch a proposiUoa ? Point me to the material nnlverss , or to one single proof that natare ever in ^ intended to give a preference to the rich over the poor ; . andthenl will admit Ihe sonsdnesa of ths propoiifcion . Bnthovr stands the facts ? Does nature withold its bountiful gifts , because the earth is tillsd by the poor

      man ? Does the sun refuse ita genial warmth , because Jthe poor man tills the . ground ? Da the * wjadsof tesven sweep with a terrific Bound , arouM the hfimhle dwnlxng of the poor , sad yet breathe 'trijh a [ gentle softness , and with a Zephyr ' s smile around tia : dwellings of the rich ? Koi and until 1 am put in possession of such evidence as this , I am determined to cling to the old-fashioned opinion , that until I see one man bom with a saddle upon his back , and another with spurs upon his heels , I will never believe that nature has doomed one man to be the slave of tbe ? other , . or that tbe other should ride rough-shod 6 ref him . If all the anti-Christian and nn-natural distinctions ^ Fhl eh now disgrace onr land were entirely abolished , and that lore of onr species wfckh wonld enable as to

      look npon every man as our brother and to confer the same right and prrvfle f es upon others that we claimed tooarselTes , established in their stead , what amighty change it wonld prodace in eorfety- s Then would the working classes have something to hope for if Then would they be elevated to that position in society-which God and nature intended they should occupy ^ The sun of liberty would then arise and shine forth in its meridian splendour upon our beloved land , before -wtose taigbt and brilliant lays every evil nadperni-< O 0 B » system xri&ptx b « m > long degraded and enslaved both the wind &sd body of man would die away like snow befsrs tbe natural son . The interest of one 1 would then become the interest of alL Then would j the people mean what they say , whtn they aing ; " Bri-| tens never shall be slaTes . * Such lawa would then be i enacted as wonld make our country what our wpnld-be

      poets have declared her to be . " the snvy of surroundisg . nations and the admiration of the world . ? And where is the man who has the least spark of love for the land of his birth would not wish to see it in that noble position ? And who would not assist to bring about so desirable an object ? Arouse then , my friends , Our silence gives consent to our own degradation . The banner of liberty is unfurled in our native land , and demands our assistance . Let us awake from i our slumbers ; let us throw off that lethargy which has so long over-clouded us ; and let us show to the world a glorioas example of what a united people determined to be free can accomplish . We must not expect to obtain oni rights , by sitting down calmly at oar firesides , and complaining of our grievances . "No , we must make a grand struggle for liberty . 2 fo nation can be free until it is prepared to establish its own feeedom . The Government may attempt to defeat this object with persecution ; but in Tain . Persecution never d ] d , nor

      never will , crush the spirit of liberty . They may indeed , as they have done , confine the bodies of men in dungeons ; bsi they cannot chain do n the aspiring energies of a free born mird ; * nsi whatever puniafc-. ment they may icfiiet on thorn , they cannpt suppress the sobI inspiring hope that soon a time wdl come when tyranny and slavery will be Brought to -rain by Jhe "virtue and intelligence of an emancipated people , and on their wreck a temple raised ' to the name of universal liberty . Let ail those who are desirous of bettering the condition of society j 6 in into one glorious band of brothers , engaged in one n » b ! e cause—Liberty Having one oijsct in view—ihigood of all mankind—1 st us throw aside all party differences , and remain firm and fc sb to eacb oilier- Teen the

      Go"vemineat , with all its power , with all Its dungeons , blocks , sad scaffolds—with all its mtsketry , cannons , and hay oneto , —With all it « spies , backed by a hireling ^ priesthood and a venal press , will never -be able to sVafi » the voice of an united people , who know their rights and dare ma ' s tain them . And . now , my friends , let us stir up that natural love of liberty which bums within the bosom of every manj let us strain { every nerve , and use every energy which God hss given ns , to grapple with slavery , tyranny , and oppression—drag them from tharl > lbod-sts 3 ned throne of iujnsdce , and consign them to the grave of eternal obflvion , and plant in their stead the pure tree of liberty !; ana , having at least succeeded in planting it inoarJsaUve soil
