On the contrary, to the law which self-governing nsen enact for Ujemaclves, and tor iheir oea government, there are ea notions of p -collar dignify and power.

Bnt bow fallacious all this la. Let ua examine. Take fcjnlc despotic monarchy aoin Imperialistic Utopia.

The apirjt that bows before an enthroned despotism ia not the spirit that reverence law. Such a power such a gov urnment ia outeidi ol the aoul ; it loea not ft itself in the innermost conviciions i f the mind. When a men thus yield he pays So true homage tocunsciuno u4 the warm srTectloii of the heart. lie aurely acta a lie; be merely bow. in submission to a law he dare not contravene or oppose. But when a great people thus enact "We in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic .franqnit ity, provide tor the common defence, pro mote the general welfare, aud secure the hleasinga of lilwrty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish thia Con atitution" wLen thia enactment cornea from a nation, of whom our readers are a . part, then we bear the voice of law which sounds to a freeman'a aoul like the majestic ' echo oi the voice of Jehovsb. It doe not appeal to our leataT It doea not crush our manhood. It doe not place under foot far cfiaWtaemeht Trohi the rod ot arbitrary power the free, unlettered spirit of man. It ia acknowledged u ad obligation which allot ua have personally assumed a real doty, great and const queutial, which we . recognize and feel a grand, glorioua priv i' liege which we all in common enjoy. Now here ia try reverence lor law. Here cornea la the only correct idea of reverence for fiat which governa us. It ia because of thia-participation ia the law that governa that we fee!
