	Raper-Chapter 8
		But in spite of this provision and of the fact that the colony had located within itself several Indian tribes, and consequently had great need of a system of defence, very little was done for an efficient one prior to 1715.
		In 1760 the principle of exemption from musters was extended.
		In 1754, at the call of the governor of Virginia, the assembly voted seven hundred and fifty soldiers, with twelve thousand pounds for raising and equipping them, to be used in defence of Virginia and of the British interests, which were now being endangered by the French and Indians.

	Beer, British Colonial Policy, 1754-1765
		The ablest colonial governor of the time, William Shirley of Massachusetts, was, however, strongly in favor of a parliamentary union coupled with parliamentary taxation of the colonies.
		Though all these plans, whether of colonial union or of parliamentary taxation, were intended for a permanent military establishment in the colonies in time of peace, their ultimate object was to effect the security of the colonies in the event of war.
		The governor, Francis Bernard, wrote to Pitt on March 20, 1759, that New Jersey showed her zeal for the cause in voting 1000 men, as her population was only 70,000 to 80,000 and as she was spending yearly on the war £70,000, whereas Pennsylvania which was five times as populous, raised only £100,000.

		By the 1606 charter the colony was limited to 100 miles along the seaboard and 100 miles west from the coast.
		As the colonies were growing in population, and as the charters of Massachusetts, Connecticut, Virginia, and Carolina gave them great stretches of territory in the Mississippi valley, it was inevitable that, sooner or later, a bitter contest for possession of the country should take place between the French and the English in America.
		Montreal was taken in 1760, and the long struggle between the French and the English in America ended in the defeat of the French.

	The Colonial Virginia Register
		From 1652 to 1660 the Governors were elected by the House of Burgesses, though there is some reason to believe that their choice may have been influenced by the wishes of the Parliamentary authorities, or of Cromwell.
		The Councillors were the Governor's advisers in executive matters, and patents, etc., are stated to be issued with their "advice and consent." They constituted the General Court -the supreme court of the Colony and also had legislative functions as members of the upper house of the Assembly, corresponding somewhat to our senate.
		The colonial almanacs (which were always published late in the year before that whose date they bear-as is the case now) contain lists which have in the main been found to be very accurate, of the members of the House in existence at the time when the almanac was printed.

	Complete List of NYS Attorneys General
		Between 1684 and 1777, the Colonial Attorneys General were appointed by the King of England, or the Colonial Governors on the Crown's behalf.
		Until 1702 he was appointed by the governor, after which he was commissioned by the Crown.
		By the Constitution the governor was required to do the appointing with the "advice and consent of the council." But in practice it subordinated the governor to the council whenever a majority of the assembly was politically opposed to him, and the annual election of the council greatly increased chances of such opposition.

	Faith & Freedom
		Tension between England and her colonies, particularly the New England colonies, went all the way back to their founding, as we have seen, and this conflict was largely religious in nature.

		The polar opposite of this German political culture clearly was the political system proclaimed in Philadelphia on July 4, 1776, by a self-styled "continental" congress of delegates of thirteen colonies that the king of Britain had declared to be in a state of rebellion.
		The explanation for Miller's and his helpers' political literacy was that for ten years they had translated and printed documents of, and reports on, the power struggles between royal governors and colonial assemblies, acts of parliaments, and speeches and pamphlets.
		His explanation of the thirteen colonies' joint proclamation of national independence emphasized the overwhelming force of practical necessity: "The struggle with England demanded energetic cooperation." Referring to the ratification of the Constitution, Holst quoted John Quincy Adams as saying that "grinding necessity" had forced a reluctant public opinion to accept the national covenant.
