    Introduction

    Spanish Constitution a model

    Observations by an Englishman on a passage in Raffanel's Histoire des evenemens de la Grece, Paris 1822 Chez Doudey-Dupre┌ Imp. Lib. Editeurs p.429 etc.

    The Spanish Constitution is in possession of the honor of being taken for a model, on all those occasions on which, with a view to the bettering the condition of the whole people in the aggregate, a new system of Constitutional law has been endeavoured to be introduced and established, to the exclusion of the several forms of government under which discontent has in such sort had place as to engage a portion of the people to join in encountering the hazards of the enterprize.

    For this honour the same body of law has been indebted, partly to its goodness; relation being had to the greatest happiness of the greatest number; partly to the urgency of the occasion, which rendered it matter of indispensable necessity to set up in the room of the form of government which it was thought necessary to pull down, some other form to which expression had already been given by a determinate assemblage of words. It was necessary men should have settled from the first what they were to fight for, as well as under direction of what individuals they were to continue to fight, or the commencement given to the fighting carried on against those whom the war found in the possession and exercise of the powers of government, could not have any beneficial result.
