The Citizen Of A Republic $15.51 Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free.This is an OCR edition with typos.Excerpt from book:Thus much will suffice to serve as a specimen in the abstract, of the virtues most necessary to our citizen, reserving them, as well as others, for a more minute survey in our future disquisitions, when we shall discuss them with greater minuteness as they occur in the progress of the work. CHAPTER VI. TREATS GENERALLY OF THE ADVANTAGES OF PERSON AND WHICH ARE NECESSARY TO THE CITIZEN IN THE EXERCISE Of POLITICAL VIRTUES. The practice of some of the principal virtues being often impeded by the want of advantage of person and fortune, it may be well to define them, that the good citizen may use all his endeavors to acquire, preserve, and augment them. By advantages of person we mean health, good looks, robustness, agility, inurement to fatigue, and in a word, all those gifts of nature which render the citizen more adequate to the public service. By advantages of fortune we understand nobility, wealth, pure fame, honor, children, and political influence, with all those kindred advantages which can in any manner contribute to the exercise of virtuous habits. And as friendship may be reckoned one of the chief of these valuable possessions, it will not be inappropriate to add here a brief definition of it — for we shall treat of it more minutely when speaking of those of the mind we come to show how our Citizen must get and use the advantages of person and fortune. Although friendship, by reason of its foundation, may be reckoned among the internal, yet, being in some measure dependent uponthose who love, it would seem more properly to be classed among the external advantages. Friendship, then may be defined a reciprocal and generous benevolence between those who love each other. One specimen of it is between equals, the other between superiors and inferiors. Fr |

The Referendum Among The English $20.75 Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free.This is an OCR edition with typos.Excerpt from book:DEMOCRACY Public men in England occasionally speak of democracy, or ” the democracy.” The latter expression probably refers in a vague way to that part of the population which Mr. Gladstone was wont to describe as ” the masses,” in contrast with “the classes.” A close definition of the expression in either of its forms is difficult. When Mr. Balfour, speaking in the House of Commons on Women’s Suffrage, said : ” A democracy, properly speaking, is government by consent. . . . Properly understood, it is the only possible government for any nation at the stage of political evolution which we have reached,” he used the term, no doubt, in its philosophic sense, whatever that may be. Leaders of the Liberal party speaking of “the democracy” generally mean the masses of the people who are workers. The Earl of Selborne dealing with the subject of the “Referendum” in “The Oxford and Cambridge Review” (July 1911), said that ” the government of the United Kingdom is now a democracy, and a democracy of a very pure type,” and Mr. Lloyd George at Bath on November 24th, 1911, is reported by the ” Daily Chronicle” and several other morning papers including ” The Times,” as saying in a public speech : ” You want a straightforward simple franchise. Why do they distrust the democracy ? I lay down this proposition. Democracy has never been a menace to property. I will tell you what has been a menace to property. When power has been withheld from the democracy, when they had no voice in the government, when they were oppressed and they had no means of securing redress, except violence. Then property has many times been swept away. Property has never been damaged by pure democracy.” The last eight words in which the expression “pure democracy” occurs, are the important part of this .. |
