THE peoples Of the Allied coun-

They would find it very difficult to
believe that the voters Of the United

this fundamental principle, and of fatal ten.
dency.. They serve to organize faction, to
give it an artificial and extraordinary force;
to put, in the place of the delegated will of
the nation the will of the party, often small
but artful and enterprisng minority of the
community; and, according to the alternate
triumphs of different parties, to make the
public administration the mirror of the ILL
concerted and homogeneous projects of fac.
ton, rather than the organ of consistent and
wholesome plans digested by common cOun-
sells, and Modified by mutual interests.
However combinations or associa-
tons of the above descriptions may
now and then answer popular ends,
they are likely in the course of
time and things, to become potent
engines, by which cunning, ambiti-
Gus, and unprincipled men will be
enabled to subvert the power of the
people, and usurp for themselves the
rens of government; destroying
afterwards the very engines, which
have lifted them to unjust dominion.
Towards the preservation of your govern
ment, and the permanency OF your present
happy state, it is requisite, not only that you
steadily discountenance irregular opposltlons
to it's acknowledged authority, but also that
YOU resist with care the spirit OF innovation
upon it's principles, however speclous the
w
effect in the forms of the constitution, alter
ations, which will impair the energy of the
system, and thus to undermine what cannot
be directly over thrown. In all the changes
to which you may be invited, remember that
time and habit are at least as necessary to fix
the true character of governments, as OF
other human Institutions; that experience is
the surest standard, by which to test the real
tendency of the existing constitution of
country; that facility in changes, upon the
credit of mere hypothesis and opinion. en-
poses to perpetual change, from the endless
variety of hypothesis and opinion; and re-
member, especially, that, for the efficient
management of your common interests, in
country so extensive as ours, government
of as much vigor as is consistent with the
perfect security Of liberty is indispensable.
Liberty itself will find in such government,
with powers properly distributed and ad-
iusted, it's surest guardian. 1t is, indeed,
little else than name, where the govern
ment is too feeble to withstand the enterprise
of faction, to confine each member of the So
ciety within the limits prescribed by the laws,
and to maintain all in the secure and tranquil
enjoyment of the rights of person and
property
