P. 344

The constitution of Neuchatel is a limited monarchy. The machine of this government is indeed actuated by such nice springs, and its wheels are so exceedingly complicated, that it is very difficult for a stranger to distinguish, with any degree of accuracy, the prerogatives of the sovereign, and the franchises of the people: particularly as some even of their most important privileges, depend upon mutual acquiescence and immemorial custom, and not upon any written laws.

С. 83

Нейшательское правление есть ограниченное Монархическое. Машина сего правления движется столь нежными пружинами, и различныя ея колеса так устроены, что весьма трудно чужестранцу точно различить преимущества верховной власти с народными правами; по тому более, что некоторыя из самых знатных их преимуществ зависят от взаимнаго согласия и обыкновений никаким законом неписанных.
