as it professes, any healing qualities, or because it is calculated to allay doubts, which are supposed to exist, or that it will be efficacious for any useful purposes. It looks to other objects to be effected, but of which we may not be here permitted to speak. It establishes a precedent pregnant with evils innumerable and mischiefs which cannot be too deeply deprecated by every virtuous citizen. It inflicts, as we believe, a wound on the character and honor of the State, which years will not heal. From the example thus set, Demagogues, who may hereafter happen to have an ascendency in our Legislature, may take occasion, thro' a general Law, thrust into our Statute book, to collect and condense their political grievances, and throw obloquy and contempt on their predecessors, and thus our Statute Book will become, to a certain extent, a common sewer, through which the party effusions of the day will be transmitted down to posterity.
