however inclined we might be to insist upon an unbounded complaisance in the Executive to the inclinations of the people, we can with no propriety contend for a like complaisance to the humors of the legislature.

In either supposition, it is certainly desirable that the Executive should be in a situation to dare to act his own opinion with vigor and decision.
