erwise diseased —and rendering them serviceable for
years. It is about the same color as the teeth and
will never change or discolor the teeth.

ARTICLE I.
DECLARATION OF FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES.
1. The fundamental principles of free Govern
ment cannot be too well understood, nor too
often recurred to.
2. God has ordained that men shall live un
der government; but as the forms and admin
istration of civil government are in human,
and therefore, fallible hands, they may be alter
cd or modified whenever the safety or liappi
ncss of the governed require it. No govern
ment should be changed for light or transient
causes ; nor unless upon reasonable assurance
that a b tter will be established.
3. Protection to person and property is the
! dutv of Government; and a Government which
i knowingly and persistently denies, or with
holds from the governed such protection, when
i within its power, releases them from the obli
. gation of obedience.
4. No citizen shall be deprived of life, liberty
or property, except by due process of law ;
and of life or liberty, only by the judgment
of his peers.
5. The writ of “Habeas Corpus" shall not be
suspended, unless in case of rebellion or iuva-
: sion, the public safety may requircjt.
6. The right of the people to keep and bear
' arms shall not be infringed.
i 7. No religious test shall be required for the
tenure of any office; and no religion shall be
established by law; and no citizen shall be de
prived of any right or privilege by reason of

8. Freedom of tlWiight and opmion, freedom
of speech, and freedom of the press, are inhe
rent elements of political liberty. But while
every citizen may freely speak, write and print,
on any subject, he shall be responsible for the
abuse of the liberty.
9. The right ot the people to appeal to the
courts ; to petition Government on all matters
of legitimate cognizance ; and peaceably to as
semble for the consideration of any matter of
public concern —shall never be impaired.
10. For every right, there should beprovided
a remedy; and every citizen ought to obtain
justice without purchase, without denial ami
without delay—conformably to the laws of the
land.
11. Every person charged with an offence,
against the laws of the State shall have the

ncsses against him :
Shall have compulsory process to obtain the '
attendance of his own witnesses:
Shall be confronted with the witnesses testi
fving against him ; and
Shall have a public and speedy trial by an
impartial jury.
12. No person shall be put in jeopardy of
life or liberty more than once for the same of i
fence. . j
13. No conviction shall work corruption of
blood, or general forfeiture of estate.
1-1. Excessive bail shall not be required ; nor
excessive fines imposed ; nor cruel and unusual |
punishment inflicted.
15. The power of the courts to puni-h for
contempt shall be limited by Legislative Acts.
16. A faithful execution of the laws is essen
tial 1o good order ; and g >od order m society is
essentia! to liberty.
17. L< 'dslative Acts in violation of the fun-
damental law are void; and the Judiciary shall
