Supposing, hoWever, that we had discovered real slefects in the House of Commons, should we not be obliged to acknowledge, with Sir MA/timer BALE, that " if by any means a . misgovernment should fall upon Parliament, the subjects of this kingdom aro without all manner of remedy ;" and with Mr.,Justice BLACKSTONS, that " so long as the English Constitution lasts the power of Parlia ment is absolute, and without controul ;" and with Dr. JOHNSON, that " Laws are now made, and -customs are established, which arc our rules, and by them we must be guided." Such, at least, is my opinion, and it gives me The leis concern, be. ' cause L am not convinced that any good would arise front a new mode of returning Members to the !louse of Commons. "No •alteration in the mode of election, or in the electors •themseirta;-avotild 'produce any change in the elected ib .tbeinlietthe' *sotirce of the evil, Which - WO bliteenal:appllcittioo can approach t • Ito weVer they eh chosen, 'de: Par.

Suppose, however, lastly , that a change promited us some benefit, and that there was a hope that the legislature might be prevailed on to sanction it; Awould it be ',life to make the attempt ? Would theattempt, if successful, lead to any permanent, advantage These arc questions worthy of consi. ()prelim!. To innovate upon the diablished prac. . aim of a igiavenstnent is always extremely dangerous. The earns Which are xisitno, are like the pro* whickeipportais ancient building they arc cum.. flit twit, atiligMy t .and theugh they seem defortni. • ties, ,yirt, if you attempt to remove them, the whole • fabric falls. They have been added as successive accidents and decays made them necessary ; and if you begin to change them, you never know where you.can stop. You procure the adoption of some measure which appears moderate and reasonable; but - which, from its awkwardness and novelty, lit assur,ts with what you leave behind—meanwhile the love of change takes hold of the popular feel. ing, the torrent sweeps wildly on, and destroys every thing before it—the ancient and venerable in. stitution is quite demolished—a state of anarchy. and confusion arises—and no law can be established 1 till order is enforced by a military despotism. Wit. ness the English Rebellion, whit!' led to the execs. Lion of CHARIAS I. and the tyranny of CROMWELL& Witness the still greater horrors of the French Re. volution, ending in the tyranny of BONAPARTE. In both cases the contest was moderately began by men eminent for their integrity and patriotism—but they could oot guide- the tempest they had raisedi and thus perished in the general conflagration. Let us, therefore, be warned by their example, and carefully guard against every thing which can tend to make the people '• despise their old habits of obedience to their governments from which fatal source may arise a, train of consequences ending id the wreck of every vestige of freedomt." Bat even if this dreadful extremity could bo provided, for and prerentedPrnsight be doubted, as I hinted "before, whether any innovation would be lasting,or practicable. Look-A . 6e famous 61st chapter of King Yeast's Charter, authorizing a civil war after certain formalities,, and imposing no restraint on the lawful rebels, but that they should respect the persona of the King and Queen and their children. took also at.a clasese in a confirmation of the great Chatteri s which was enacted in the 49th year of iligllllllr M. 66 giving liberty to the King's subjects to rise against; and distrain him to the utmost of their power, notwithstanding the allegiance which they owed hire, in case he should transgress the con. ditions therein agreed mit." In this confirmation there watts no exception, even in respect of the King's royal person and family. But what was the result of .these celebrated remedies ? In both eases,' 66 as edon as the Kings got out of the hands of their-respective enemies, neither father nor soli paid say regard to concessions so compulsively ex. Sorter Su impracticable (adds the learned Biker 'Of the Charters) is the attempt to restrain even inited Monarchs by any positive, provisions, which argue * degree of distrust inconsistent with me. narehy itself." In ' like manner many other regu. lotions, by which it'has been attempted to remedy imperfections, perhaps inseparable from human in: ititutions, have been disregarded, either because ttfey could not be reduced to practice, or because they Were produetive of other The constitution consists of thole laws Which the legislature take Care to preservein activity, and of those customer' which It permits and sanctions, and seeing that yiiiir" perfect system of representation , would give an intolerible degree of emba r ra s s men t to the executive power; that the present system cannot be presumed to be bad ; that if it were bad, there is no remedy likely to be efficacious ; and that if there were such a remedy, it would be dangerous to try,it; we mayon the whole conclude, that it is better to maktrourselves satisfied with our pre. Sent condition, and do all that sec can to strcngthett the hands of government,against ,thc mighty power Which threatens us from without. • 2 Soam ienyns, 212. t -. . + Lord Selkirk, p. 11. 131w/este/les lido. 114, lutroduetlen 90. • P. •.
