The advantages attending the separation thus
made will hardly appear disputable —
1. The demand for attention, on the part of those
to whom it belongs to judge, is thereby proportionally
reduced: - for if the present Bill be approved
of, it may be divided upon without waiting to look
at the rest: and so with regard to each of these other
Bills, supposing the present one to be approved of.
2. Dispatch is proportionably promoted, — since
of these remaining Bills no one need be made to wait for any other; nor this for any of them.
3. The danger of rejection is proportionably reduced.
Admitting that each would if presented by itself, be
approved of by a great majority, it might
nevertheless happen, that, if were they presented in the lump
the several of disapprovers, might by
joining together, though on different grounds, put
a negative upon the whole.
The bond of connection and principle of unity as between these
several pieces of political mechanism is thus
common primum mobile — the proposed Board
of Police.
