're *THE rco a OF ME SUN. Sta,—Etrurs are aiways pernicious. The life of the wise wan 6 a crosatle against them. But never ate they more destructive titan when they extensively prevail in commies ultimately go vented by public opiuiOu. :nett it is, that, by falsifying the pi ilicipltm of Government, they poison the very source of Legislation. Errors of this kind are'revaletit even among our country men, %%lit); r~dt without some reason, tliink them selv.es, in general, po . litically wise. Nor are the i•easons obsepre, or very difficult to detect.. We have, Sir, n Constitution, Ivho3e eulogy would be the first to write, if eulogy 'ere want. ed. 13tit' tt flinch wore coinmendei thiln understood; and multitudes of those who are the loudest in its pulse, have hardly a correct idea on the subjel. The Constitution of country; sir, has' Arisen, like all the best results of human reason, tram careful 'experiments, founded on particular circumstances and events. It is neither the child of theory, nor has any rea sonable theory as yet been deduced front the et cellence of its practice. That it is a delicate ha- lance and adjastn►eut of the principakpowers and interests in the State, is generally acknowledged; and will•not here be 'disputed. But how that ba lnr►ce i 3 formed will never be rightly understood, while-one or two fundamental errors sball preVail in the minds of men. Our Constitution arose, historic.►lly, out of the contest between the regal and the baronial power the Kiugs themselves gradually introducing what has bt•cit called the popular power, for their own defence against the tyranny of tlitir barons. It perished once, as. every 'Government influenced by popular pu6'er; iniiimilerstood, has of neces sity it tetnictizy to perish, in the total annihilation of all other powers, by +he destructive violence of the popular. 1 . 13 w the Kings did not introduce the power of the ; people, in I s vicious' extent ; they were too %%Ise. They entrusted' the power to the counties, cities, and r.limited number of boroughs, selected by theo,3tlvcs ; antlAti these- only IQ tesponsibic citizens, who might have a personal interest ity the general ertlfare of ihe state, _ they distinguished, practically at least, if out aseciretically, between the populace and the people. Here, Sir, is the fundamentab error of all our political theories. They confound these two great elapses. The distinction'between them has indeed been made, by writers of great eminence, and even by some writers.of no eminence at all ; bill it hay never been sufficiently understood. It has never been properly' defined and litaHted ; which therefore, with yOur permission,. 1 will now un dertake. • • • .The Phone, in the wait extended sense'of the word, uni., be considered us meaning the whole norly of the nation, except the Sovereign. But this extensive: people must be variously subdivided in r, descenaing series of classes, so far as the op 7 portunity of education, or a rational culture of the understanding, is enjoyed ; below; that line, there is only one comprehensive class, which is properly called the POPULACE : whose general characteristic,' from the very nature of this clan, sifiqatiou, must be, that they ure utterly incapable of political judgment or deliberation : the-want rat opportunity to cultlVaie their reason being the very disability n hich of necessity renders suet exertion impossible. Yet is this class extremelynumerous, and, when conducted by skilful leaders, - powerful. It happens therefore to them, as to all who possess power, to have their flatterers and : corrupter's. la republic they are all•powerfnl. A REPUIALIC, berefore, may be properly defined, 'l‘ , o con- ttivance to make those %rho cannot judge or reason, direct those who are capable at both in the highest degree." The very worst political contrivance that ever !Inman folly tolerated ! lu a. mixed polity, they who are discontented with the rational powers of the Government never fail to have recourse to the irrational power well knowing that, by an able speaker, it May be persuaded into any thing. Yet must impartia wisdom unequivocally pronounce, that to delude confidine ignorance is the very basest task in which the powers of speech and reason can possibly be employed. Such,' however, is the ernplOyment of demagogues, of every rank and tiesetiption. They affect to despise the flatterers of Kings; trough :Kings have the means, it itheywill use thew, of resisting all such arts yet they Are to be the flatterers of tlit: popttirtee, who ar'e neCessity the passive victims of tie ,and geuerally:to their p %tit destruction. Wisdom m is" leading folly, knowledge ignorance, and" art Simplitity, must always,. when Seel in its trite light, be a picture of the lowest baseneis' and The popzeiacc should be protected front every species of oppression. This is of the first ne cessity, in point of justice. By what political provisions this.shoold be effected, it is superfjnons to say, since our Constitution amplY 'proyidt..s their, Whether they are oppressed or ntirXis, perhaps, the ont,froint which the populace ntight be capable of 'judging, if there. %Vete' tio P,lttcryrs to deceive them. But there are men so basely profligate as to teach them that the ne cessary gradations of rank and prope'rty are an oppression ; that the visitations of Heaven, sc;tr city, famine, war, or whatever other . evil they may haPpento feel, iiitheit' proportion; are the tanks of their Governors, there is. do trusting them to judge, even of that siMple fact: They would be contented, or at least patient, under such necessiry, evils, had they not .diaholic3l Counsellors to instruct them, that they ought. to be discontented,' and impatient. Of political measures the poilitlace is, . of ne, cessity, altogether 'unable to judge ; the cilile proof of which is, that the very rue:ds.dores which. they bare once approved!, under the pen:. Suasion of a new Orator •they will as violeotly tondemn. A few words On ItEPRES'ENTATION', And i havo done, for the present. There cannot he a stronger instance Of the pernicious influence of words upon • things, than the pitvalenee of this , unhappy term. It is founded wholly on afiction . .. The Member 4 of our Parliament never tepreseqted, .not were in. tended to represent, the numerical body of the people, end still less of the pvpulact. They tire purposely ehoseu to be as unlike them as p:rssifiLt ; to deliherato.and to judge, in eases where they are utterly lucitpithle of both in ereetHllle. 'barrier of, suffer reason against cvery.s;;:ecit,:'S j oi popular infatttation. They are, indeed, 'wist•ly taken 'among the intelligent persons'of crew grpat local division, told every important subdiVision,of the country : and. hence probdhly arose the idea of Representation. But • they do 'not .. tepreieht, they are deputies to act, for the districts e,liettce fher Ore cent and so chosen, that the-particular interests of every liart nuty'be made known to the getieral body but they represent them nog. They neither act in imitation of them, nor by their di rection; but on their own superior ltn6viedge'and ‘‘,iadotn. One fully always nrodnees more. FrunCthe • • adoption o f the term Representalive,an idea Itas gone forth that every man hag a right to be re presented. The populace have even been taught' to believe that they must be unliappy if they are not represented. Whereas, among those who are represented (as it is called), wit due Intelligent mat; in a thousand ever exercises his right of voting, unless led lo it by particular circum stances. The having a vote ran do a common man no good, unless it obtaus him money or pa tronage, and both, in the Crinr emplntion of our Hret corruption. But the legitimate work of the demagogue. Ile Inkkcs the people matl,„ and ti.en butt nets them I hat, they ought to govern their keepers. This is no better logic in .0 State than It would he held in Bedlam. The thing required, for the benefit of the Suite, is the connsel of intelligent Men front evetif Part of the country; and, if I olttain the aiivice of fifty competent men, how ; can it lie amendett by the interference Of fifty tittinsand ignorant block“. heads Let 113 hope then,' that, wi rye grow wiser, we shall banish all deiniive terms from onr speculations ; and learn to.call thing,s theie propel' tintneS.
