much in nut shell, and sf you'd Jest

Yon SEQ the Cineral got notion, ard
he hangs 10 il yet. That every thing that
belongs To the Government - his'n, be-
cause he shinks he - sI'he Government; -
end tho 0ny gay 70 account for this Is,
that ono day when he was readin ahon'
the powors and rights Of the 'sGisrrnl
Government" one Of the crooked hats o(
his eye brow got in betwixt the glasses Of
his spectacles, and somehow made him
think Ghcrs was kinder 5 betwixt Giaer-
aland Government. and - he though. il
was The @Ginesal'. Goverument;" and
No ! said afore, whom no once gifts notion,
he hangs 10 il like all natur. However,
a. ! vas saying, tho Gisssal said in hs~
irst ~l,refrss,n that Congress had NO
right 10 blame him tor any thing he might
d with tho mon,y, or any other property
Of the Government. Well don't know
vet Who il was laid the next egg in his
nest. but somc one in loolsin into the
Constitution found sn.neibin like this
sT'he Congress shalt have poser 10 dis
pose Of and mako ali needtul rules and
regulations respecting tine Territory, orl
cshcr property belonging 10 the Cnised
ia tho Constitution t!,es would take good

carving into execution the foregoing 4
powers, and all other powers vested by
This constitution in the government VI the
United States. ~ in any department ori'

Now this means somethin or It means
nothin; and my notion IL, thas there a'n'
uothin in thst Constitution that don't mean !!
sometbin; and afore tho General gifts
throw he'll find it will turn out 80.
The more look into the Constitution.
the more think that the folks Who made
it-c,sry one Onassn had his eye -sceth1
cut. lf thsy had known that the people
would always make jist such man ms
the General President, then perhaps, the
Wouldn't ben much lon
ger than the lint Of the Ginerai's finger
-and somcthin alter this fashion,
There shall be q Congress composed Of
two bodies, one cali'L the House Of Rep!
reseniatives and the oii~r the Senate, and
congress shall; make all tho laws. 4
There shall he President and he shall!
have the appin,in Of all tho officers, It
the Senate agrees 10 IT.; and IL the Senate
don't agree To IL, the President may wait
till they 60 home and appoin. VIII" he
ulesses. to execute the laws as he under
stands 'enn.
There that Is pretty much nil that
would a ben necessary, but some how our J
old folks got a notion in their heads, that
seein they had Just been fish,in agin
Government where one man had nigh up.,
90 the hull power s'tO reward hts friends |
and punish rs enemies they would fix
things - that this couldn't be Il tho poo
pls wuuld keep sharp lookout, and sol
they made = constitution; that the ony
vav can account for their bein % plrts.
euiar in writing down every thing SO that
10 ono can git round il in any way, and
pintins out how every thing IS 70 DO done,
!, that there was some folks amongI
EN-, (such as Washiugton, Adams, Madi-
con, Js6srson and such like, who heipJI
make il too) and Who might SONS how
crawl into . eide door and git some adyan-
