He has endeavored to prevent the population of these states; for that purpose obstructing the laws for naturalization of foreigners, refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new appropriations of lands. [obstructed] He has [_suffered_] the administration of [by] justice [_totally to cease in some of these states_] refusing his assent to laws for establishing judiciary powers. He has made [_our_] judges dependent on his will alone for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries. He has erected a multitude of new offices, [_by a self-assumed power_] and sent hither swarms of new officers to harass our people and eat out their substance. He has kept among us in times of peace standing armies [_and ships of war_] without the consent of our legislatures. He has affected to render the military independent of, and superior to, the civil power.
