political. To remedy these evils social

Thereat "'he supreme legislative au.

Of course such a party needs guar an

But then says 'the supreme will of the
'a'ion,' there is dagger Of rebellion,
therefore, more guarantees are necessa.
=.
We hope never to live in a republic
where all CIV! authority is conferred
'pon the military and the rulers have
lot a wholesome fear Of rebelliens.-
Wise rulers will fear to give any just
alse for rebellious. They will seek the
OF at least the acquiescence of
re people in their schemes of revolu-
ion, without resorting to the terror
i military rule. This is what all wise
nlers do. 1t is all the guarantee posi-.
lie against rebellions and all there ever
hould be.
We are IN favor Of rebellions, when
he natural rights of the people cannot
'e maintained without them, and 50
Tere the men who rebelled from the
tyranny Of the British Parliament and
achieved American independence.
We are opposed to trustl ug those
With authority whose folly will provoke
ebeilions or those who are poor judges
# the reasons that will justify them.
We want rulers who will furnish no
uot cause for rebellions, as we'll as those
Who will not get them up to further the
md. of their own ambition. Then if
assistance to oppression becomes necessa-
y the acto, in the drama will succeed,
md instead Of being stamped with
he ignominv Of treason, will, from being
he saviors of their country, be patriots
Those that would tinker and patch up
The cons titution to max g sure of no future
rebcllons, are not to be trusted, and are
unfit to rule free people.
We want party Of faith and cour-
age in the governed, one that is not
afraid of a rebellion, and " bic h, should
sne occur upon just and reasonable
grounds, would have the wisdom to
quiet it down by proper guarantees Of
the imperi!!ed rights of the people, as
has boen done several times in this
