"Nay, it [this constitution of government] must perish, if there be not that vital spirit in the people, which alone can nourish, sustain, and direct all its movements. It is in vain, that statesmen shall form plans of government, in which the beauty and harmony of a republic shall be embodied in visible order, shall be built up on solid substructions, and adorned by every useful ornament, if the inhabitants suffer the silent power of time to dilapidate its walls, or crumble its massy supporters into dust; if the assaults from without are never resisted, and the rottenness and mining from within are never guarded against. Who can preserve the rights and liberties of the people, when they shall be abandoned by themselves? Who shall keep watch in the temple, when the watchmen sleep at their posts? Who shall call upon the people to redeem their possessions, and revive the republic, when their own hands have deliberately and corruptly surrendered them to the oppressor, and have built the prisons, or dug the graves of their own friends?

Al, welcome to our forum, so nice that you found us. Do you wish to be called Al or Allen? Please identify. Two bee colonies, wonderful. We have a few members from other parts of the world and it is always so neat to hear of beekeeping practices in other parts of the world. This will be a place where you can have people that love to listen and give advice when asked. It will be a place where you can tell your stories, tales and experiences and you will also make some new friends, stick around. Have that wonderful day, life and great health. Cindi
