Book Description

Excerpt from Proceedings and Debates of the Convention of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, to Propose Amendments to the Constitution, Vol. 10: Commenced at Harrisburg, May 3, 1837 We offer inducements to certain men to acquire character. Those who do not acquire it, lose the reward. But is any thing done to hinder them from obtaining it? N 0. They refuse to exert themselves, and therefore they cannot gain the prize. If all alike were to behave equally well, all would be entitled to equal enjoyment. But this is not the case, and they who do not behave well cannot be admitted to equal enjoyment.
