(3) (1) Plans for Charlemont
3. Volunteers Military
Hardy p. 270 276. 257 279.
2. Subordinate pretence in proof of the alledged dangerousness
and eventual mischievousness — [the] interference of military
power.
In The proof of the shallowness of the pretence — of the
insincerity of those all who urged it many words can not be
necessary. Military forsooth the power of the Convention — "military
the origin of the Association.!
Under a Constitution form of Government such as the British what is
it that makes military power an engine of mischief,
and as such an object of just dread of just jealousy and
apprehension? What, but that, in the hands of the Monarch,
where of whose his interests the preponderant one is in
a state of irreconcilable hostility to that of the people
any how military power under his command is
an instrument of mischief upon the most comprehensive
scale an instrument of despotic power and irremediable
misrule, an instrument ready at all times
to be employed as so lately we have seen and felt
it to be employed against the people. For
Now suppose "the whole people armed in arms and at the
same time in harmony with each other, as I in the
United States they have always been — as in Ireland
itself that seat of former turbulence they had at that
time been for four years or more — in whose hands
could it be an engine of mischief — against what
part of the people would it have been employed?
