Therefore we have w right 10 con- clude that the charter submitted by us will be adopted, not only on the ground of our own better acquaintance with the Practical wants of the city, and of the defects tn the present charters, but upon the simple American republican matin, that cur community has tie rightto select its own form of mu: uicipal government, so jong as it is not repugnant to the con- | stitution of ze United States or ot the btate of New York. ‘With these views, #0 obvious; clude that the eeveral senemes Presentes to the Legisiature, ecually ebvoxious, cannot receive the endorsement ot body. it will be, indeed, not only an unfriend’ omission not to pans ihe form of charter we have presented, but a poritive infraction of our inherent rights, t9 force upon us another Which in its provisions ig abhorrent to our pride adverse to our well being anc goon government, and au insult to our own intelligercs.
