2. As to the Double-legislature or say Two-House system
In this case neither is the absurdity there any absurdity that can be called flagrant, nor
comparatively speaking, are the mischievousness effects very considerable.
This case is the case of a good government: a good government
which for want of experience, is not sufficiently satisfied
with its own goodness.
In this case though perhaps by the restriction no very great
harm is perha done – for by the goodness of the government the possibility
of all great harm has been effectually excluded, yet some
harm has been done, and harm is the only effect the
and with the exception of the such confidence and satisfaction thus produced as may have thus produced
under the denomination of harm may be comprized every
every thing that has been produced done.
In the Anglo American hemisphere, it is in the Anglo-American United States it is that this
system had its origin: in so far as it has been pursued employed
in any other State, it is from that State or cluster of States that
it has been copied or imitated. In Those spaces either the
whole essence of the genus of the most at any rate the principal part
of the genus being contained, in by no further higher ascent in the
climax of generalization does any advantage seem to
be afforded.
To the case of the Anglo-American United States
let the examination therefore be limited confined. An individual
object being thus throughout in view by so much more clearly
will be conceived will therefore be every idea which
there may be occasion to bring to view will therefore be the conception produced by whatsoever word,
the occasion may require to be employed.
