Is not so the next. Acts are passed and repeal
ed, without any good reason. The advocates
OF Monarchical governments. nuke this con.
start tci'anecableness,an an objection toour Rcpub.
iican system. In absolute monarchies there is
| no such change. There tho will OF ono man is
supreme. With us, the law.inalers are literal
ly legion.
TIE LAws.-Alrcndy the country is
comparatively cran,mcd with laws from
twenty-six manufactures (besitles the great
national onc) and What is most alarming,
the patches succeed each other SO rapidly,
that before one is lar.l, cold the next is
baked. Even now tins Republic has laws
cnouSl Sli Tor all The nations of the earth, and
also we are inclined TO Lelieve, for the iu-
i'ahltan,s of the planets in this solar system
If they are peopIcd by such beings as we
are; and yet we are every year adding to
The stock already on hand, without the
most distant prospect of the nuisance bcing
hbatcd. " hat will be the result of tins
disposition tor excessive law making, time
only can determine. We fear the worst
III fact, VIC think the time has already
come when large portion of the legal pro-
icssion know but little about the statute
law sand that the day is MOI distant. " hen
II will even puzzle the heads of Phil ,deI-
phia lawyers To keep the run oi them
The immense cost Of this excessive law
making, is also u subject worthy OF much
consideration. This Government is de
clarcd 10 be the cheapest Government, in
the world. In most respects. no doubt,
this declaration is correct. Bui in its Ie
gislaiivc department it is quite as costly. if
not more so than any other Government.
We think the yearly expenses of lceisln,ion
IN this Republic amount, at least. TO four
millions Of dollars, it no, more. And for
what purpose is this immense sum taken
from the pockets of the productive class -
To increase the number of laws already
excessively great, and about which ,he
body of the people know bur little more
than t!rydo about the laws Of the Mcdes
and Prrsiaus.
Like many other Governmental hurd. MS,
this excessive law-mlakimn i, fast becoming
truly srievous. We trust the people will
ST. consider il, and,ake inca >ure~ to tighten
it as speedily as possible.
