I, The British House Of Commons. on the 2sth
Nav. in the debate on Mr.. O'Conneifs plan Of
Parliamentary Reform, Sir Robert Pee! held the
following language: - J.,
The learned gentlemen had contended. that
as the people paid for the public appointments
thew ought to have control over those aPIolni-
me.ts. WHY, did not that very argument show
that as soon as they cot possession OF me eiect'e
power thew would also want the executive power
The ONLY tangible instance that had been ei'ea
bv the other side. was that ct an honorable and
gallant General, who had beer dismissed from
his Office for voting against the Government; ou'
did any one suppose that State couiu ever Dc
so constituted as that those who were opposed %
the Government cogld be united 70 the Govern
ment: But even supposlng that t.!s eircH instance

tell the learned gentleman that universal suffrage
would Give no security from such disunissals from
was infinitely less exercise OF this power than II
that Republic where universal suffrage prevailed.
In this country. when there was change az GoN
eminent. the removals were generally confined

General Jackson succeeded 70 the Pres!dentla
chair. hs first act was 10 remove every lndiyidu

mind. that was conclusive proof, that even l
there we're universal suffrage. there still woulC
be no security against the removal of individuals
