If in such moments the civil power may slumber without responsibility, if the particular com- munity in which the oufra2;e may be perpetrated, may look on silent spectators of the enormity, and be safe from all liability, the boasted charter of the people's freedom, is a mere collection of unmeaning sentences, the pro- tection it professes to guarantee to the individual citizen, is but a name, it holds but the word of promise to the ear and breaks it ^o the hope. Let it not be said in such case...s, that the individual is entitled to redress from the immedi- ate authors of his injuries. It is but to trifle with his misfor- tunes. Who were they for the most part, if not exclu- sively in the particular instance? who will they ever be? The very dregs and refuse of society. Bankrupts in fortune and in fame, actuated by an inherent lust of plunder, ministering to the vindictive passions of concea- led employers, or hoping to rise to comparative import- ance in moments of public agitation, from the obscurity to which their worthlessness would otherwise forever consign them.
