That all political power is inherent in the peo-
Pile, and all Tree governments are founded their
authority and instituted for their benefit
| From all these high, solemn and obligatory sane
tons it then unquestionably appeas:-lst That the
people the source OF all 'igh,ful political power
and that governments can righfuy be invested only
with such portion thereof, is granted to them 10y
the consent of the people. 2nd That the people
derive their property from the bounty Of God, and
not from the bounty of governments. 3rd That

right. 4th. That governments were instituted for
the protection Of persons in the enjo yment of their
native individual rights 5,h That private property
cannot be taken for public uses Without just com
pensation, SC. SIC. In contemptuous disregard OF
these solemn sanctions, proclaimed by fathers
| for our good all these great fundamental prin-
ciples are now battered down, and trampled,under
foot, by The preposterous doctrines of the author,
and his aiflia ed political associates And for what
has all this been done? II has been done TO substi-
tute despotisrn, for free government To substitute
unlimited capricious will, for specific limitations
upon power. To elevate the few, and TO depress
the many. To convert American freemen into
American slaves:-And thus the author says, to
get at the right to project domestic manufactures,
TO pass Tariff Law. The right to DO a great pub
lie wrong. The right to do great public and pri-
vae mischief in corruptng public and private
morals The right to do act OF great public and
private injustice. The right TO take from one msn
the proceeds of his labor; and give them TO another
who did labor for them aud this is to be done, not
! for the public use, and tcithout compensation. O
