If we consult Foreign experience, the Spartans, I think, the first that called themselves a Republick, did not long keep their ground without degenerating into an Oligarchy, or a Government by the Thirty Tyrants. Rome when they had driven out their Kings and set up a Commonwealth, were one while inclining to an Ochlocracy, when they chose the Tribunes of the People to give check to the Senate; another while to Monarchy when they chose Dictators, which becoming by degrees perpetual, at last ended in Monarchy again. |
