established, the government of France
will become Wronger than itever was
for any length of time, in the reign
of despotism, and the genius of the
people Bill more arderit and enter

' 41rongeft when it is voluntary. In
formed obedience there is a principle
°rfdifcontent and resistance, which
offy waits for an opportunity of in
novation. There is another way in
which freedom strengthens the autho
rity of government :'By encouraging
industry it multiplies the public re
fodrees ; it affords a fund of credit,
L and the means of taxation."
