In the third place. The state derives benefits from the individual, by the presence of his property, (in which term is to be included labor, ) which he might remove into the liberty of nature, if he chose. The increase which his property adds to the aggregate wealth of the whole, is one of these benefits. The use, employment and con- sequent advantage derived therefrom to the community, are other benefits. The imposts and contributions which the nation may exact from that property, for the comm...on purposes, form other benefits, directly appreciable as an actual pecuniary consideration. Finally. The individual has engaged and contracted with every other member of the society to aid in the accomplishment of the great ends of protection and defence, for which the society is instituted. All these considerations, in the case of an individual, have passed and are passing from him to the state, at every moment of his existence. Any one of them is sufficient to raise an implied promise on the part of the state, to confer that benefit upon him for which the state is avowedly instituted, and which he demands of it.
