Radicalism not dangerous

III Experience
1. United States

Proved in this case
the innoxiousness — not
merely from Democratic
ascendency but from
Democracy; viz. if
quickly established.
Note that by the Unite case of these United States,
supposing it to be a parallel one — by and
and the of the government and the
felicity and security of the people in as far as in all respects depends upon the
goodness of the government such as is here alledged,
not merely only is the portion in question proved, namely
that from democratic ascendancy as it would be
established by radicalism no preponderant act is
to be apprehended, but that from pure democracy
such as it exists in that particular state — from
pure Democracy supposing it quickly established
no such act would be justly to be apprehended.

no evil, much less from<lb?>Democratic ascendency<lb?>under which

not democracy.
see the case of Ireland.

the keeping of the state of things in the country from
pursuing change, to the prejudice of the no exacting
rights of property and other rights of all sorts
the power which in the case in question would together
with all their property be left in the hands of the
Monarch, the Lords, and the existing Members of the
House of Commons, added to that of all possessors of
power and within the kingdom, including
the whole power of the official establishment, military
as well as civil, would in any case be without
influence. [+] [+] against mischievous
in
all its forms But all those are so many elements of security
which democracy durst not afford and which democratic
ascendency would afford which [+]2

of them, the case of

head be brought to
