Whence is any right derived but that which jiower confers for perse- cution 1 Do you think to convert Mr. Eaton to your religion by embittering his existence 1 You might force him by torture to profess your tenets, but he could not believe them, except you should make them credible, which, loerhaps exceeds your power.
