When ver any rank in society is invested with more than
an equai (hare of the privileges and powers of that iociety.it
mult heat the expense of the other ranks. Men, mousily
on a iese, ought to remain so by the constitution of do focie :
ty, it they oil tecute the lib< ^ and welfare of the commu
nity, and every civil and nectary diQiti&ion, as that of le
filiuor and inagobate, and the other civd officers float d he so
fettled as rev r to remain long in one family, otherwise it
will e o d in the milling of that people. All natural dniiuc
tions, such as weak and Ibong, wife and toolifh, and every
accidental or adventitious one ; Inch as learned and un
learned, licit and po,», may fitly exist in the community,
without introupting its peace and felicity; but eve y family
did-otbon which a society create, will finally prove deftruc
tivc to that focouy. Princes of the blood, princes of th em
pire and Fee's of the realm, aver have been, are now, and
cvr wll be, the convenient and necctfary tools of royal ty
rants. featured up and down the community, sot the rhore
readv accnmpliflnhg his will who treated them. All politi
cal d'iftin&ions ought to be the gift ofthe tree people at large,
and continually to invert to tbt.dl at the end of the political
vc.u, to be renewed co othe^witi , as they tin! think proper.
Amrdf every civil couftituiion now exiting in the world is
partly the ipurious offspring of some former very defective
om. Pcihap, America is the only country in the wot Id, whol
