EXTRACTS,
Written in 17.90. — Travjlalcdjrom ike French.
THE expedient of arming the
poor figainli the rich, isas absurd as
execrable. Want and necefiity have
created more ties between the rich
and the poor, than philosophy can
eafity difiolve. It is necefiity which
makes the multitude of poor per
ceive, that they could not exifl with
out the feyfr rich ; it is the fame pro
vident neceflity which forbids the
ivy from ftifling with its thousand
arms the oak which supports it and
saves it from creeping on the ground.
THE true philosophy of a people
is policy ; —and while philosophy
teaches to fonie individuals retire
meut, the contempt of riches and
honor ; policy dictates to nations to
enrich themlelves at the expense of
their neighbours, to cover the seas
wirh their navies, and obtain by
their industry and activity a prefer
ence in all the markets ot the uni
verse ; for two nations are to each
other in a state of pure nature, like
two savages contending for the
fame prey., •
THE experience of part ages
proves, that whenever the people
have exetcifed in theinfelves the
three powers, the democracy is im
mediately changed into anarchy ;
violent oiatots agitate the multi
tude as the winds toss the waves ;
and the people flattered by dema
gogues, have committed all the eJ£-
cetfes, abrogated their best laws,con
demned their best citizens, and dis
sipated the public revenues. In
Athens, the sovereign was mad,and
the state miserable.
This experience of all ages fur
ther proves, that if the three pow
ers are united in the hands of a se
nate or an individual, there is im
mediately an ariftocraticai or a mo
narchical despotism.
To obtain therefore, a tolerable
eonftiftution, the fovereigury mtrlt
divide ifself—But flow experience
has at length come in aid of rea
foti, and has (hewn that whenever
only two bodies are eftabliihed as
the depofitai its of power, they are
neceflarily engaged in a combat,
which mufl finifii in the extinction
of one or the other, and the deltrmic
tion of the public happiness. When
Rome had banished her kings, the
senate took their place, and govern
ed like despots—until at length the
people by frequent infurr6ifHons
compelled them to acknowledge
the magifhacy of the tribunes.
From that moment peace was ba
nilhed front Rome ; the tribunes in
their turn, having gained the victo
ry over the fenare,deflroyed liberty,
and violenily led the Sovereign Peo
ple to slavery.
THE word Liberty will always be
an enigma while we tlifcern in it
a»y thing more than the work of
the law, and the fruit of the consti
tution ; while we compound it with
natural independence, we are A ill
in want of a good 'definition of li
berty—To undei ftai>4, it we mult
enquire what are the elements of
liberty. It seems to me that man,
when he exchanges the condition in
which nature places him, to become
the social being, loses his indepen
dency to acquire greater security.
Liberty then is the rcfuit uj a ct/itruil
b.tvjccn iiidepcuJente and JteurlTj.
Man quits his companions of the
woods, who do not disturb him, but
who may devour him, to enter into
a society which will not devour him,
but inult ueceflaiijy conltrain him.
—He makes the belt bargain he can, I
and when he enters into a society
who have a good constitution, iie
(urrendeis as little of his indepen
dence, anil obtains as great (ecurity
as poilible. It is like a ship, which
we get insured oil leaving our fltores,
of which, for the fertility of the
whole, we voluntarily rt-linquifb
pan of the profits. With this defi
nition of liberty, we may explain
all the phenomena presented to us
in ancient or modern history. At
Rome and Athens, for example, in
dependence prevailed over I'ecurity.
In a monarchy like England, fecu*
rity prevails over independence.
