they are to ou1'l1eppi11ees. We live surrounded eml

A  iwas ridiculed there EtS‘(‘5lll1’11('31‘lCi3.l-———2tI1 utopian bubble,
that might glitter‘ for a while in the sunbeam, but would

surely burst on contact fwith the slightest obstacle.

i Ourfatliers had profited of their opportunities too

Wellnot to disappoint such partial expectations. Tliey
had mastered the political wisdom of the age. And
have they not shown that, if we have reason to rejoice
111 ourdescent, England has scarcely less to be proud
of alierddescendants? Security at home, power and

respectabilityab1road,areto a certain taextent neeessa.-t
rily incident to every vigorous government. But it is A

peculiar to governments, whose principle of action is
chiefly theinterest of the people, that the security of
person and property at home is not sacrificed i.n obtain--i

biting power andirespectability abroad. This principle

of action, in the ggoverument of England, is (20il11lI1l,l1f._?.;l€~3(l.

the real interests of the snh_ject. Ambition, intluenced

*2’

do these, emhelm with elfectioii its lifeless remains.
Men, in every country, under every government, are
allure-d to publick life, by the charms of distinction.
Ambition forever renders homage to the power confer-

ring it. Hence ambition is devoted to prerogative inf 
monarchy, and to the public]: good, or to the 1*ulir1g r o
passion in repuhliehs. Thus e.n1I)itiou, the motive

power of all govermnents, is so cllitSi;@l1G(llI1 yours, that
an enlightened intelligence of your own interests steed-
ily pursued, will give in practice, as in theor , indu-

A hiteble excellenceito your constitutions shove every

other. But like otliers, it is exposed to the irregular
action of party.   A  A , .

A fedemtive system of sovereign states ne,tu1'elly
tending to mmrchy a1nong; themselves produces occo.-

Yet While their true interest is most surely obtained up
