-the Mate .of Umo, and certain resolutions
founded thereon, relating to the proceed
nited States for the district of Oh?otagainst
certain oflicers, of that Stated have heeti
communicattd by his excellency the G'
verhor. with a feqnest of thr Errisl&tiire
pf the SMte otQhio;that this Legn'slature
" 1 will; express its opinion ' thereonr which
report and rekHations having been duly
consideredi: Therefore, -- -v'-'Cy
Bttolvedby the Senate and Houie of
jcjuzriuuirvea m ircnerai Lourt con
vened, That the Cmgress the tJnited
States has, bv the Constitution, power to
establish 0 Banki vih offices of d iscnnnt
and depcite, in the several States, as isf
cone d the act esshlishing the Bank of
the United States. CAnd that thV-rprrl !
cf this pr wer is tiecessary for the due ad
I ministration of the fiscal concerns of the
United States. " ' V;C ' w
- Resolved, That as theXonstftution and
laws of the Lfnhed Statesmade in pursu
ance thereof, arc the supreme law nf the
land, any thine: in the eonstlf utinn rr
. , , - - - - - - - --'p
laws of.any state to the contrary notwith
standing;" therefore, .any. act of the- Le
gislature of a state, which, if carried into
enect, would prevent.or defeat the right
ful exercise of any powers ,veste)l in the
general government. Is void."?
Resolved; That the act of the Legisla
ture'of Ohio, levying a tax of khe Bank of
the United States, if carried into effect,
would, compel a removal from" that state
of the office of discount and denosite there
established, and thereby prevent and de feat
the rightful ; exercise of the power
vested in the general government, by vir-
ne wnereor the cinces ot the Bank were
there established. - ..r .
i?eovei, rhat. Inasmuch as the f udi-
U4i uwer 01 .me unuea states extends
to all cases in law and equity, arising tin
der the" constitution and laws, this Ievrisla-
uc s tipiuiou mil incjuaiciai power
cf the United States, is co-extensive, with
the legislative power, and that It apper
tains to the judicial department of the go
eramcnt 01 me united states to deter
mine cases arising from a conflfet between
the laws of the United States Sc the laws
of a'panicular State, and that the preser
vation and due exercise of this Jower Is
essential to the peace and safety of the
Union. " V 4 j- ; . - ;
i?forrtf, .That, in the opinion of this
Legislature, the proceedings in the Cir
cuit Court, of the United States;for'the
district of Ohio, in the' before mentioned
report stated, do-not violate either the
letter or the spirit of the eleventh' article
of the' amendment of the constitution of
the United States;,nor constitute any just"
canse of complaint. ; : ; ' . ' ;
Retolved, That while this Legislature
will alwavs be ready to lend its aid to de
fend against any real encroachment on
the rights of any . of the states of the.
onion, it will give its full support td the
general government, so long as it confines
itself Within if nrpcrrlK 1 ' S ikil
