' "' ' - ' ' ': ' "' - . 8. Resolved, That the preceding resolutions be trans mitted to the Senators and Representatives hi Congress from the commonwealth, who are enjoined!: to present the rame to their respective houses, and io use their " best endeavors to procure at the next session of Con gress, a repeal of the aforesaid unconstitutional andob noxious acts. ..".',. ! i 9. Resolved lastly, That the Governor of this com monwealth be, ! and is authorized and requested to communicate the preceding. resolutions to he legisla tures of the several States, to assure them that this commonwealth considers union for special national purposes, and particularly for those specified in their lat federal compact, to be friendly to the peace hap piness, and prosperity of all the States that faithful to the compact, according to the plain intent and meaning in which it was understood and acceded to by the several parties', it is sincerely anxious for its preservation ; that it does also believe, that to take from the States all the powers of self-government, and transfer them to a general and consolidated gov ernment, without regard to the special government, ahd reservations solemnly agreed to in that compact, is not for the peace, happiness, or. prosperity ( of these States. And that therefore, this ''commonwealth is determined, as' it doubts not its. co-states are; to sub-; riiit to undelegated and consequently unlimited powers in no map, or aodj- of men'on earth ; that if the acts before specified should stand, these conclusions flow from them; that the -general government may place any act they think proper on the list of crimes and punish it themselves, whether enumerated or not enu merated, by the constitution cognizablelby them, that they may transfer its cognizance to the ' President or any other person, who may himself be the accuser, counsel,' judge and jury, whose suspicions imay be the evidence, his order the sentence, his officer the execu tioner, and his breast the sole record of the transac tion ; that a very numerous and valuable description of the inhabitants of theseStates, being by this pre-? cedent reduced as out-laws to absolute .dominion of one man, and, the barriers of the constitution thus swept from us all; no, rampart now remains against the passions and the power -of a majority ;of Congress to protect from a like exportation or rather grievous Jpunishment the minority of tlie same body, the legis latures, judges, governors, md counsellors of the States, nor their other peaceable inhabitants who may venture to reclaim the constitutional rights and liber ties of the States, and people, or who for other causes, good or bad, may be obnoxious to the view or marked by-the suspicions of the President, or 'to I be-thought dangerous to his or their elections or other interest, public or personal ; that the friendless alum has been selected as the safest subject of a first experiment, but the. citizen will soon follow, or rather has ahead' fol lowed; for, already has'a setlition act marked him. as a prey: .1 hat these and successive acts pi the same character, unless arrested on the threshhold may tend to drive these States into revolution and blood, and will furnish new calumnies .against republican gov ernments, and new pretexts for those, who wish it! to be believed,, that man cannot be gowr.ned but by a rod of iron ; that would, be a dangerous delusion were a confidence in the men of. our choice to silence our fears for the safety of our rights; that. Confidence is everywhere the parent of despotism, free government is founded in jealousy and not in confidence;' it is the ' jealous)- and not confidence which prescribes limited-constitution.- to bind down those whom we are obliged to trust with power, that ourconstitution has accordingly fixed the limits-to Avhich and no further our confidence .may go; and let the honc'st advocates "of confidence read tlie alien and sedition acts, and say if the. constitution has not been wise in fixing limits' to the governments it created, and whether we should be wise in destroying those limits? . Let bim say what the government is, if it be "not a tyranny which the men of our choice, have conferred on the President, and the President qf" our choice has assented, to and accepted over tlie friendly' strangers,' to whom the mild spirit of our country and its laws ha've pledged hospitality and protection; that the men of our 'choice have more respected the bare suspicions !of the Presi dent than the solid rights of innocence, tbe claims of justification, the sacred force vi truth, ahd the forms and substance of law and justice. j ; In questions of prwer then let no more be said of confidence in man, but bind him doAvn ironv mischief by the chains of the Constitution. That this common wealth does therefore call on its cOrStates for an ex pression of their sentiments on the acts 'concerning aliens, and for thepunishmehtof certain crimes here inbefore specified, plainly declaring whereby these acts arc or .are not authorized by the federal cbm pact. And it doubts not that their sense. will be so announced as to-prove : their attachment to limited government, whether general or particular, and that the rights and liberties of their co-States will be exposed-to no dan gers by remaining embarked on a 'common bottom with theiif own. But-they will concur with this com monwealth in considering the said acts as so jmlpably against the Constitution as to amoant to, an undis- guised dqcla'ration, that the compact is not meant to be the measure of the power of the General Govern ment, but that it will proceed in the exercise oyer, these States of allpowers whatsoever. That they will view this" as seizing the rights of the States and consol idating tiiem in. the hands of the General Government, with a power assumed, to bind the States (not merely in cases inade federal) but in all cases yhatsoever, by laws made, not with'! their consent,' but by others against heir consent; and this would bje to surrender the forni of government we have chosen, and live un der one deriving its powers from its wil and not from -' 1 .' - ' i 1 AT -If ll - - O t A - i 4 J .1 our auinoruy;ana mat ine co-oiates recurring to ineir natural Rights not made federal, will copcur in declar- ing these void and of no force, ahd will (each unite with this commonwealth in requesting their repeal: at the next session ol Congress. . - - iVirginia Resolutions; 1798-'99. 1.

That the General Assembly doth particularly protest against the palpable and alarming infraction of the constitution, in thjtwo late cases of the " Alien and Sedition acts," passed at he 'last session of Con gress; the first of which exercises a power no where delegated to the federal government ; and which by uniting legislative and jjudicial powers to those of-the-executive,-subverts thej general principles of free gov ernment, as well as thje -particular organization and positive provision of tl federal constitution, and the otherof which acts execises, in like manner, a power not delegated by the constitution, f but on the contrary expressly and positively forbidden by one of tlie amendments thereto ; it -power more than any other, ought to produce universal alarm ; because it is level led against the right off freely .examining public char acters and measures, and of free communicatioii among the people therein, which has ever' been justly deemed the only effeciual ' guardian of every other right. . I- -- ..- :' j' ' . -j r -;; -- , '...;: 6. That this State having by its convention, which ratified the ederal constitution,; expressly declared, that among other essential rights, "the liberty of con science and of the pres cannot be canceled, abridged, restrained, or modified jby any authority of the United gtates," and from its extreme anxiety to guard these rights from every possible jatjtaiek of sophistry and am bition, having," with tte'r States recommended an amendment for that 1pjurppse, hvhich amendment "was in due tinlfe annexed tojthe constitution, it would mark a reproachful inconsistency arid criminal degeneracy, if an indifference were jnOt shown to the most palpa ble violation of one of the rights thus declared and se cured; and to the establishment of a precedent, which may be fatal to the dthqr.;j j. 7. That the good rpeofele of, this commonwealth having ever felt and continuing to feel the most sin cere affection for their .brethren of the,- other States, the truest anxiety for establishing and perpetuating the union of all; and he most scrupulous fidelity to that Constitution, yiiichis the pledge of mutual friendsdip and the intrumenjt of mutual happiness, the' General AssemblvdOth! solemnly appeal to the like dispositions in other States iq confidence that they will concur with this fomrnonwealth in declaring, as it does hereby declare-! that' ilie, acts aforesaid are Un constitutional; and itijiat ; the necessary aud proper measures will be taken by each, for cooperating with this State in maintaining i unimpaired, the authorities, rights and. liberties rpierved to the States respectively, or to the people.' j I :!;,; j- i ,"'' 8.

That to the Union ul the States this nation owes its unprecedented increase in - population, its surpri sing,development of jmaterial resources, its rapid aug meiitation of weal(li . its happiness at home and its honor abroad, andjje hpld in abhorrence all schemes for disunion, comeitromwhatever source they may ; and we cpngratulatethelcoimtry that no -'Republican member of Cohgf essfhasf u'ti erod or countenanced a threat of .disunion,! sp often made by the Democratic members of Gmgres without rebuke, and with. ap plause' from their political associates ; and we de nounce those threats of .disunion in case of a popular overthrow of their aceildenc, as denying the vital principle of a tree government, and as an avowal oi contenipiated treasbh, which it is the imperative duty of an indignant pdople strongly to rebuke and forever silence.. !.

That the nonnal condition of all the Tcrntory of the United States is that of freedom. .That as our re publican, fathers when they had abolished slavery m all our national Territory. : ordained that my person should be deprived of life, liberty or property, without due process of liwj itiiecornesour duty, by legislation whenever such Jegislatioii is . necessary, to maintain this provision of the Constitution against all attempts to violate it.
