We have seen how
little it is to be expected
that any
Members in particular
any Member
of experience
and activity should
have any place
formed.
Very like the requests for such is luck - the ability or the inclination, or bothI have heard it urged &c Look round when you will, it has been said, you will not find anything
But no Member
how discerns to
ever, and how general
so ever the
d among Members
can move
for such a process without
having a plan
formed.
The case is very
different when not
only a Plan is
formed, but a work
executed upon such
a Plan. These
is so found a
of some such
or other to build
upon - and any
Members may long point
to ithis hand upon it and propose to build upon it.

This plan of volunteership
in
respect of the compository
travel of
legislation is equally
favourable
to the purpose and
end in view upon
the opposite suppositions
- whether
the wishes of men
in office are favourable
amicable, or whether
they are adversehostile
to it. If amicable
they will be gratified
by it. if hostile
they will be over

The grand objection
(bona or
mala fide) is
that it is difficult
- impracticable
- for
it is not difficult
it is not unproveable
- it is
done.
A man feels
himself standing
on strong
ground when he
can say A text
exists already
whichexists even in to my conception
answers
No purpose. It
exists - I have
it in my hand
No reason for
accusing Legislators
and Judges for
not having done the
past till Individuals
have done theirs.
Let a system of
Procedure compular
of Chican be
produced and approved,
and then
infer a certain purpose
for consideration
of these if the
Legislation will have
will not take it up
then used not till then
will be the time to <lb/

One thing a man
finds out, is worth
twenty that he is
told.
The authoritativeand formal
part must be confirmed
to the select few.
The essential & more truly
part is open
to individual all the
world.
The compositionpreparation
must be the work of
years: thi adoption
may be thisthe work of patched
in a few days.
It will be more
honourable to give
the insprationthan to follow: to give than
to obey it.
It has been seen that
the bringing forward
any and
effectual of
improvement (and
to be effectual they
must be cohesive)
is properly speaking
work not for Legislators
but for individuals.

upon and a certain
