Our doctrine is not that State Legislature haa
any right to Interfere, except to petition and to pro-
u?t. . It tK'Migs wily to the rjtcrLK 01 me eiaie
to excrcuw this high act of Sovereign Authority.
The legislature, therefore, cannot precipitate tlie
State iutoaucba contest: but wJum aiwh a ' pal
pable, dangerous, and deliberate " violation of the

The people of a State bcod together by the ao-

STATU SOVEREIGNTY. .
Havinff now published the Article pf Confederation,
and tlie Constitution, with it amendments, we ahall
proceed to make such comments, and to adduce such
authorities to ausfsin them, a will,' in our opinion, tend
to (five a correct exposition of the nature of our ni-
ptel, tnd of tli rltie right tod powaraot "
neinil and State Governments.
Some person entertain the opinion that the respec
tive Stater tid inhe wins relation to the United
KtalMrthat the Colintiee do to a State ; or, in other
word, that tlie State are nothing more than mere cor
porauonsy or muaicipalitie, that derive their powers
from the General Government, A grosser political he
resy can hardly be conceived. The very reverse of this
is true. The General Government is the creature of tin
fiTaTeV" pwefbut wliet.it 4erty"tf

The second article of the Confederation ia, ot itaeir.
aufiicient to estabfmh our pmitinn beyond the reach of
controvert, in the judgment of any one who will con
sider it candidly, end with uch e spirit as uUght to in
fluence an unprejudieed inquirer efter truth.
That article eays Each State rrtuin its soverenrn-
ty, freedom, and independence, arid every power, juns-
Ijctiorl, nnd richt, which is not, by this Confederation.

HWe tlierefore keepi t now, if tlie State did not po
$cu these attributes, would" it not be absurd to talk

We might multiply, almost iiMltilAjtely, authoritiee
to how thet the State were considered eovereign un-'
der the old -Confederation ; and we could find u many
leudmrities for it among the old Federalists aa among
the old Republican: we diall, however, quote nui a
jew more at Peewit .;-.:.,
Iminediatelr after the adjournment of tne uenerai
Convention which formed tU Constitution, in 1787, tlie
sovenil States called together Conventions for Uie pur-
rie of considerina whether they would adopt or reject
the new Constitution. The Convention of the 8tate of
PBtuwylvania met in November 1787. Mr. JameeVMI-
son, wno naa iusi icii me ucncioi wm
was k leading inomber, and on? of tliat party who
- i ' . I . C .L. C. I . ii . ii o
were in favor ot reducing ine wwer oi i
11,01 member of the Pennsylvania Convention. He
explained, at great lenpth and with much ability, the
various parte and objects of the new Constitution, and
in tlie course of his remerks he said" llie uniieu
Stntea already contain thirteen Governments mutually
indcpnnilcnt." , .
How could Janpuajje more cienny express me nsn-
vidual sovereignty of the State 1 Lleven years before
this they had declared their independence, , end, by the
success of their arms, they had constrained even un

church organ.
Now, we have always thourrht that, where there jj,
a ditrcrenco, not entirely irTeconcileable, between bihi
or parties, tm magnanimity would require the weakft
mail or party to make the first sacrifice or peaceff, t.
ing. If tliis principle becprwct-Hwd if the'Natiooak
reatly bel'irie tliat tliey are more numerous than
Stale Righta fnen-and if, moreover, they really comi
der the letter true Whig why do they not cease h
denounce them, endeomflwer and unite with then '

The game they are playing ia rather transparent

any party for their good opinion f rtd, althotrglr'uj
are men, and therefore not entirely indifferent to ojfi
they certainly will not barter their principle to okii

We have been led to these remark by some artclei
that have ap)cared in tho Lynchburg Virginian a

of the National Republican' Forty. Tlie article ,

ent of each other, the State must have been, and con
tinued, separately sovereign, at least up to-tlie time

If the unaniimut assertion of tlieir individual ebve
reijrnty, in the solemn leapue 0(1778, end tlie other
evidences adduced, be insutrlrient to establish the tact,
then we must give up the point in dexpuir of being able
to convince those who reject the assertions of the most
authentic history, and the most conducive reasoning

Mr. Bodfbrd went on to argue in favor of confedera
