Book Description
Excerpt from Journal, Acts and Proceedings, of a General Convention of the Commonwealth of Virginia, 1899: Assembled in Richmond, on Monday, the Fifth Day of October, in the the Year of Our Lord One Thousand Eight Hundred and Twenty-Nine This assembly is called for the most important object. It is to am'end our Constitution, and thereby give a new support to our system of free republican government. Our Constitution was the first that was formed in this Union, and it has been in Operation since. We had at this period the examples only of the ancient repub: lics before us: we have now the experience of more than half a century of this our own Constitution, and of those of all our sister States. If it has defects, as I think it has, experience will have pointed them out, and the ability and integrity of this enlightened body will recommend such alterations as it deems proper to our constituents, in whom the power of adopting or rejecting them is exclusively vested. All other republics have failed. Those of Rome and Greece exist only in history. In the territories which they ruled, we see the ruins of ancient buildings only: the governments have perished and the inhabitants exhibit a state of decrepitude and wretchedness which is frightful to those who visit them.
