Bcfides this, the Senate have a voice in the appointment of all national Officers. This mows the ne-ceffity that the man in whom you place fo large a Cure of your confidence, fhould be a man of undoubted merit, and incorrupt able integrity. Th prefervation of republican forms 'of government requires, that no important offices continue long in the fame hands. In general men are lovers of power, as well as wealth, bewufe they canmake the poweis of which, they are poffeffed fubfervientto their pur-pofes, and they will purfue their own gratification at the cxpence of that of others. In the deftri-b'ution of power, therefore, care mould be taken that no perfons have an opportunity of poUeffihg it any longer than it may be for the advantage of the whole, and that all powers be cafily removable, whenever it fhall be perceived that they are abufed.

For this purpofe it feems mofl convenient that all offices of great truft and power, be held by rotation.
