§.2.I Effect patient prosperity

It being impossible T or Now? that his will should ultimately take effect
in spite of the will of the people, if a choice were necessary
to be made of one to the exclusion of the other, the power of temporary
stoppage might could perhaps with more be more with less inconvenience
be spared in the hands of a second Assembly than
in the hands of a single person. The reason is — the so
much stronger and impressive sense of responsibility and consequently
binding force that has place in this case when compared
with the other. For want of a the temporary veto — suppose a
manifest mischief to have had place — how came you to
suffer this law to pass without observation? is a question
which any one his Constituent might at all times be putting to the Governor.
and against this reproach he would no where be able to find
shelter. But in the case of the Assembly — Why d thus cast
the reproach upon me? I was led astray by the rest.

The people — how is it that their interest can be served, by the
lodgment of the power in the hands of an interest opposite to their own?
Such is the problem which the defenders of the Constitution in its present
ever deteriorating state have to solve.
