ABOUT

Even the apparent disadvantages of our organization Effects of powerfully accelerate the improvement and the happinesszationf""" of human existence. Endowed with the strength of the lion, mailed like the elephant, or clothed with a skin impenetrable to cold and humidity, we should perhaps have remained benumbed in stupid indolence, and ignorant of all the arts of life. The extreme feebleness of the human frame at the moment of its birth, the slowness of its growth, the multiplicity of its wants, all those infirmities, all those ills which nature has appointed as our attendants in the journey of life, serve as so many spurs to quicken our dormant faculties, and as so many bonds by which man is knit together w ith man. Hence the origin of civil society. From the long lasting helplessness of infancy, arises the t-ndearing relation of parents and children; from this relation springs the permanent nature of the conjugal union. The union of men in families is followed by the lormation of tribes and nations. It is by uniting with his fellows, and living together under one common law, that man has, as it were, created man; it is by forming a correct estimate of his weakness, and by inventing instruments to assist it, that he has obtained the mastery anil the management of the powers of nature; he has felt his penury, and the stimulus of this uneasy feeling has procured for him his true wealth.
