07" It will be seen, in the communication from our
respected corTesjioikieiit, ' A North Carolinian (sec
stieceeding column,) thst he admits tlie correctness of
all the positions we have laid down in relution to the
character uf our Government, with one exception : he
still insists that there is no tribunal higher than Uie
Supreme Court to judge of constitutional questions.
We" are 'gratTfiedT to fihd'an intelligent Tederalist of
the present day. acknowledging that tlie Constitution m
a compact between ik)vcreign States. Indeed tins was
generally admitted, nntit Within a few years, 'as" S his
torica fact not to be questioned ; and it was only deni-ed-when-tlie
advofstes' of Centrrl power were driven
frorft every other position assumed by them in defence
of ante n-tbte d.ictrmes.
VV'e admit what our correspondent says, that " the
CWsUtiiiioa .cannot-be altered by anyone State, but
only by tlie ocmettrrence of -three-tbnrths of all the
States." This is souud diKtrme, becautie it is clearly
cunstitniioiial. But if tlie doctrine prevail that the de
cision of the Supreme Court ia final, this part of the
Constitution may be easily abrogated. For example:
a bare majority of Congress, representing a irf majo
rity f the Stale, may pays an unconstitutional law
tlie Court may pronounce it constitutional ; and, altho'
de Ktte tmf tvimfar it clearly wnconssHturiomil,
they have n irnedy ; and thus the Constitution be-

sf?re. We admit that the Supreme Court is the high
est tribunal to decide cases between tlie General Go
vernment arid individual, because the Constitution
grves tJiem this jurisdiction ; but we deny Uiat the Con.
stitution gives them power to decide questions between
a Store and the General Government 1
We shall show, hereafter, that the leading Federal
ists in tlie early days of our Government did not pre
