The Firfl Arrterican Edition.
THE grand principle of Equality, if right
ly understood, is the only basis 011 which
universal justice, lacred order, and perfect
freedom, can be firijily built, and permanent
ly secured. The view of it exhibited in th;s
essay, at the fame time that it reprefles tlie
insolence of office, the tvrSnny of pi ide, and
the outrages of oppression ; confirms, 'n the
moll forcible manner, the necessity of'fnbor
dinatiOn, and the just demands of law ful an
thority. So far indeed, from loosening the
bands of society, that it maintains inviolate,
every natural and every civil diftin&ion,
draws more closely every tocial tie, unites in
one harmonious and jufily proportioned sys
tem, and brings men together on the even
ground of the inherent rights of human na
ture, of reciprocal obligation, and of a com
mon relation to the community.
