An article In this number, on Capitalization,
discusses tho tendency Of civilized nations to-
wards that concentration Of power, which, while
il undoubtedly strengthens a Government, do
stroys individual agency, and therefore, contri.
butes to the ruin Of both. This is the great OWL
Of modern European society and obliges govern
mcnts, almost in solf-dcfcnce, TO keep vast
standing armies, less as q terror to foreign
nations than their own subjects. Tho great
problem Of Philosophical thinkers il how to con-
s,ruct government which shall define and pre-
serve the exact limits which should separate the
central and local authority, and secure TO The
iniivi lual tho fullest liberty Of action, without
impairing the collective power Of tho whole PEG
pie. In this respect We believe that tho pcoIl
of tho United States have embodied In the Con
stitu,ion the nearcs' approach TO tho most per

ever ...", anu a pcrusal Of this article, which
I presents US with the views Of the ablcst moderr
thinkers on tho most important problem OF In
manity, confirms our long cherished conviction
| in favor Of the benchccnce o! those institution
which we nrc now yindcitins in the eyes oi th
