But this very inequality, 50 ofeps;r.,
our transeendenlal philaniL1opists and =.
eral formers. is the bond Of or;;oa gen,
strength of society; and any abusa. ;. sDa
may exist make nothing against ,bs .s Nat
ness OF the argument, or the tru,b ~ 10
principle. And the riches, man : lie
country IS as much dependent mr. Ne
poor man for his ease, comforts and la, ne
res, as the latter IS upon the former.
the master is as dependent upon I;. a'0
want, as he is upsn his master. Ana
is all round the conditions and ramif;c,,;
of the best organised society try !, ~
you please. 1t is the order Of ca
Nature. aiA
Inc whole universe is a harmon;m.,
constructed system of dependencies g..
the Lowest to the highest, and from -
ieeblest TO the mightiest of created be;,a
whether animate or inanirna,e, na,a,;as
imma'erial; and dependent on tho n

And those who attempt to change 9, ms

In whole or in part, viii be sure 70 "a

In state of universal and absOlr,.
equality there can he TO bond of yn;,s
and consequently ne strength nor sOlidrv.
because, there being no ities. bs,s
could be nc dependencies, and there being
no dependencies, there could be no mutual
attachments, which are the strongest cords
of union and strength.
From inequalities come mutual and Re.
ciprocal dependencies. which in turn GRE.
ate mutual attachments, and these an. ,i,s
aggregate powers of attraction and col..
| sion, which, when not DESTROYED lv adverse
and disturbing causes, bind man 10 ,n,n
state TO state. and nations TO nations Tn,
| is the constitutional arrangement of Ma.
sure. This is the ordination of God R,,
fanatics and fools, madmen, and van,
dreaming transcenden:al philosophers are
always at work to break up and dissolve
this order of God and Nature
The conclusion, then, TO which we cone
in the investigation of the proposition is
ftilis: Inequalities necessarily create de.
Tendencies, and dependencies create at.
tachments, and attachments necessarily
create union, and in union is concentrated
all the collective aggregate particles Of
strength; and hence you have inmcre.
ment and progress to their utmost extent.
And all this beautiful and combined re.
suit has IFS origin in the eonjugal relation,
in the family circle. This is the source Of
It's earthly fountain; and thence it flows
out into society, and from society into lie
state, and thence into the world.
But where there are no inequalities
sucira place or society could be found-
there can be no dependencies, and 10 al.
tachments: no union and no strength: nc
improvement or progress. All would lie
inanimate coldness, disorder, anarchy, and
the final and speedy end dissolution.
This universal law or principle OF in,-
quality that pervades the universe of Col
is among the wisest and most necessary Of
| his laws; for ii is the Fundamental rTiiLoi-
fple of order and law, OF harmony and lore.
Our next essay-and the ias.-wili con-
tain some observations on Tie folly, imrle'y
and mischief OF all those who in their sew.
eral ways attempt TO set aside TIE order
and economy of Nature and Of God, and
ia place of them introduce their principles
and measures of ezpediency, necessIiE
and equality.
