Radicalism not dangerous
(3) 3 § Bill of Rights abrogated
(2)?
But though not so great as it seemed to be, in practice there were
it was found adequate other circumstances by which it was rendered sufficient. These They
circumstances were circumstance was the existence of a Pretender to the throne Crown
with a party in the Country not that altogether an inconsiderable
one for his support. The of the exiled determined and
then Against the reigning Monarch on the throne, the partners
of the exiled Monarch were at all times as were to the liberties of the people as ready to lend their
support to the friends of the people. Accordingly down to the
close of the reign of George the second's reign we find them they may be seen acting
in opposition to the Whig Ministry, acting by that means
on various occasions in opposition to misrule acting in
a manner beneficial to the people at large: opposing every
increase to the standing army, opposing any increase to the
of taxes acting even in opposition to the parliamentary
, and in support of parliamentary reform
(1)?
But the when compared with the present state of things, the
most immediate and manifest security consisted in the smallness
of the regular standing army.
So often as allusion is made to it the potency of this
engine appears nev not to have been at time sufficiently
apprehended. Men do not seem to have ever been sufficiently
aware, that without using the upon the
magnitude of this instrument the security of the people against
,del> that which is in a greater or less degree inescapable from Monarchy
depends more than upon all other circumstances taken together,
and in particular those upon the state which the rule of
notice is in, even in respect of the constitutional branch of law: in this instrument being not
of exceeding a certain magnitude
so much that while at one time as well as of the government
in every respect being completely unchanged, exactly the same the security may
have been completely done away, and the government changed from a mixtmonarchy
to an despotism
