When government does not answer the purpose of benefiting society, let it be altered, improved, or changed altogether, but abolish it per- manently you cannot. Society is indeed before government in the order of nature ; but there is no proof that either did or can precede the other in the order of time. So soon as society begins, the whole people must make rules for its regulation, or the strongest will take the business into their own hands ; O ' and arbitrary power, sometimes aided, and some...times perhaps checked by traditionary custom, sway the people, till the people institute a government and make laws for themselves. The strong despot, or blind, traditionary, and often tyrannical custom, or law and constitution, must rule. We must make choice of one of these three. There is no further power of choosing given to man in this present world. " No clergy ! " To this I will only say, in the lan- guage of a very ancient book " Would to God all the Lord's servants were prophets ! " Would to God the moral, spiritual and intellectual state of the world were such that every man might be his own prophet, priest and ruler ; and nothing more be needed in the premises.
