ftamp-duties and other duties on his majefty's fubjects in America, whereby they conceive fome of their most effential and valuable rights, as British subjects, to be deeply affected, think it a duty they owe to themselves and their pofterity, to come to the following refolutions, viz. "Refolved, N. C D. That the affemblies of this province have, from time to time, whenever requifitions have been made by his majefty, for carrying on military operations for the defence of America, molt chearfully and liberally contributed their full proportion of men and money, for thofe fervices. "Refolved, N. C. D. That whenever his majefty's fervice fhall, for the future, require the aids of the inhabitants of this province, and they fhall be called upon for that purpofe, in a conftitutional way, it will be their indifpenfible duty most chearfully and liberally to grant to his majefty their proportion of men and money, for the defence fecurity, and other public fervices of the British American colonies. "Refolved, N. C. D. That the inhabitants of this province are intitled to all the rights and privileges of his majefty's fubjects in Great Britain, or elfe where; and that the conftitution of government in this province is founded on the natural rights of mankind, and the noble principles of English liberty, and therefore is, or ought to be perfectly free. "Refolved, N. C. D. That it is the inherent birth-right, and indubitable privilege, of every British subject, to be taxed only by his own confent, or that of his legal reprefentatives, in conjunction with his majefty, or his fubftitutes. "Refolved, N. C. D. That the only legal representatives of the inhabitants of this province, are the perfons they annually elect to ferve as members of affembly. "Refolved, therefore, N. C. D. That the taxation of the people of this province by any other perfons whatsoever, than fuch their reprefentatives in affembly, is unconstitutional, and fubversive of their most valuable rights. "Refolved, N. C. D. That the laying taxes upon the inhabitants of this province in any other manner, being naturally fubverfive of public liberty, muft of neceffary confequence, be utterly deftructive of public happiness. "Refolved, N. C. D. That the vesting an authority in the courts of Admiralty to decide in fuits relating to the ftampduties, and other matters foreign to their proper jurifdiction, is highly dangerous to the liberties of his majefty's American fubjects, contrary to Magna Charta, the great charter and fountain of English berty, and destructive of one of their most darling and acknowledged rights, that of TRIALS BY JURIES. "Refolved, N. C. D. That it is the opinion of this houfe, that the restraints impofed by feveral late acts of parliament on the trade of this province, at a time when the people labour under an enormous load of debt, muft of neceffity be attended with the most fatal confequences, not only to this province, but to the trade of our mother country. "Refolved, N. C. D. That this house think it their duty thus firmly to affert, with modefty and decency, their inherent rights, that their pofterity may learn and know, that it was not with their confent and acquiescence, that any taxes should be levied on them by any perfons but their own reprefentatives; and are defiious that these their refolves fhould remain on their minutes, as a teftimony of the zeal, and ardent defire of the prefent houfe of affembly to preferve their inestimable rights, which, as English-men, they have poffeffed ever fince this province was fettled, and to tranfmit them to their latest posterity."
