This Mo,hers, l can allure, is a fact
that often happens amongt cs--as I

our freedom, we ihall be divided into par.
ties. The true qoeition is, nall the judi.
ciary be permanent, or huctuate with the
tide Of public opinion /! ] beg, l implorc
gentlemen, 10 confder the magnitude and
value of the principle which they are a.
bout to annihilate. Ifyour Judges are Inc.
dependent, OF political changes, they may
have their preferences, bu, they will not:
enter into the ipirit OF party. But let
their exiience depend upon the fuprors OF
the power of certain fet of men, and they
cannot BE impartial. Jraice will be trod.
den Under foot. Your courts will loie all
public confidence and refpeet.
The Judges will be furported by their
partizans, who il their turn will expect
impunisy for the wrongs and violence
they commit. The fpiris of party will
be inaamed to madneis and the moment
is not far off, when this fair country is to
be defolased BY civil war.
Do not fay, that you render the judges
dependent only on the reorle-you make
them dependent on yonr PreGdent. This
is his mea(urc. The fame tide of public
opinion which changes a PRECEDENT, will
change the majorities in the branches Of
the Legislature. The Legislature viii be
the inltrument of his ambition, and he will
have the courts as the inRrumene Of his
vengeance. He uGes the Legislature to re-
move tn. judses,shas he may appoint crea-
lures of his own. In efeet, the powers
ofthe government will tbe concentrated in
the hands Of on. man, who will dare to ad
with moro boldnefs. becaule he will be
fhelseted from Responsibility. The indie
pendence of The judiciary was the felicity
Of our contribution. 1t was this principle
which was to curb the fury Of party upon
iuiden changes. The fra moments of
power, gained by aruggle, are the mott
vlndietive and incorporate. Rated above
the form, it was the judiciary which was
TO control the fiery zeal, and to quell the
fierce pa6ions of a victorious faction.
We are itanding on the brink OF that
revolutionary torrent, which deluged
in blood one of the fairea countries Of
Europe.
France had her national aAembly, more
numerous and equally popular with our
own. She had her tribunals of juiticc,
and her juries. Bat the Legislature and
her courts were but the inhruments of her
dearsition. Acts of profcription and fen
fences of banifhment and death were paf-
ed in the cabine, of tyrant. Proarate
your judges at the feet of a party, and
you break down the mounds which defend
you from this torrent. ! am done.
Mould have thanked my God for greater
power to rcGe meafure 70 dearuetiye to
the peace and Happiness Of the county,
My feeble efforts can avail nothing. But
it was my duty to make them. The me-
ditated blow is mortal, and from the
moment it is truck, we may bid final
adieu to the contribution.
