The representatives of the people, on the other hand, do not fail soon to procure for themselves every advantage that may enable them effectually to use the powers with which they have been in- trusted, and to adopt every rule of proceeding that may make their resolutions to be truly the result of reflection and deliberation. Thus it was that the representatives of the English nation, soon after their first establishment, became formed into a separate assembly : they afterwards obtained the lib...erty of appointing a president : soon after, they insisted upon their being consulted on the last form of the acts to which they had given rise : lastly, they insisted on thenceforth framing them them- selves.
