Constitutional Code Ch. XII Judiciary collectively
§.25 Attendance

Note (a) continued

Amongst other Laws Statutes made under the pressure of
that exigency is one which not only in common only but also in
Official language is called the Insurrection Act: nomination
being an a state of things regarded and with but too full cause
as continuallyan occurrence continually either in existence on impending: the whole forms of government
being such as, if had if it had for its purpose in perpetual
insurrection perpetually quitted and removed the p
the production, suppression and reproduction of insurrection
in a perpetual series, could not have been better more
happily apparently adapted framed appropriately adapted
devised. |

Of this same Insurrection Act such is the matter
and spirit, that to have rendered it perpetual, would
have been to make declaration of a system of government
such as could scarcely fail of consigning to destruction the
very class for whose sake it would have been pursued:
for so long as fire will burn, the in the purer of theone
encompassing and exasperated majority will always majority will be the habitations
of the minority, with their contents real and personal
contents, The form of its accordingly but temporary. In this Such is the state of things, such being the in which
during about half of every the year, with custom for sole reason reasons the legislative
authority in in shape keeps itself in shape and
importance.

example of the consequence. In the opinions of the possessions of the constituted
authority the Execution comes a demand for the power given by this same or
Insurrection that Act Act: the administration of which was (it seems) or so efficacious in a former

resuscitate it another Act would another Act be necessary. Such other Act when it is then

But, if, without any such corrobarative, government at the accustomed rate government can
be carried on for some months, why not for some any number of years?||
