blessing, have yet been taught to believe there
is no evil of political nature to be compared in msgni-

friends term the American System, involves powers
swell the powers Of the Federal Government to heigh,
inconsistent with the reserved rights OF the States and
destructive Of their sovereignty, they will, there FORE
no less this account Than account Of the extreme
