Excerpt from The Military and Naval Operations in the Canadas During the Late War With the United States: Including Also, the Political History of Lower-Canada, During the Administrations of Sir James Henry Craig, and Sir George Prevost; From the Year 1807 Until the Year 1815 You have wasted (contmued he) in fruitless debates, excited by private and personal animosity, or by fri volons contests upon trivial matters of form, that time and those talents, to which within your walls, the public have an exclusive title. This abuse of your functions you have preferred to the high and imports ant duties which you owe to your Sovereign and to yo 1r constituents, and you have thereby been forced to neglect the consideration of matters of moment and necessity which were before you, while you have at the same time virtually prevented the introduction of such others as may have been in contemplation. If any proof of this misuse of your time were necessary; I have just presented it in having been called on after a session of five weeks, to exercise his Majesty's pre rogative of assent, to only the same number of bills, three of which were the mere renewal of acts to which 'you stood pledged, and which required no discus sion. So much of intemperate heat has been mani fested in all your proceedings, and you have shewn such a prolonged and disrespectful attention to mat ters submitted to your consideration by the other branches of the Legislature, that whatever might be 'the moderation and forbearance exercised on their parts, a general good understanding is scarcely to be looked for without a new Assembly.'
