Ch. Colonial Constitution

5

Under the guidance of precedent, and authority, and p of the a of Cuba auto to a division of it led by instinct
precedent, man with his the hands and his thoughts in his
pocket, follows man by instinct follows man, as
dog follows fox, sheep sheep, and goose goose.

Of a Second Chamber, howsoever instituted,
bad effects several and great, good effects, none: it
in stands this, in Mr Bentham's Letter on this
subject to the his fellow citizens of France

In the Senate — Second Chamber of the United States
Federal Legislature the Congress, to the functions to a share in Legislative power belonging
to the Legislative department are is added functions belonging
to the two other departments of government — the administration
the the judiciary. Pure would be the evil —
pure of all good, the effects of no share in of the legislative
power, if it had none in any other: by the share in the
administration the case evil is made still worse. by the evil is
doubled, by the share in the jud, trebled.

True it is — that to set against these evil effects
in the peculiar circumstances of these this federal United States, there is
one good effect:[+]
[+] namely, the
disadvantageous
under which the
constituencies of the
smaller States are
placed by the comparative
smallness of the number
of their representatives
and consequently Votes
as compared
with the number of them
possessed by the larger
states.
But, to the case of our Australasian
Colony that one good effect has no application.
No federal union: no such complication. Simplicity,
that in every case almost universally so desirable a
property is one of the number of its attributes.
