Nem Ysrk.-The administration party arc full
of rejoicings because thoy have carried the city of
New York in tho late elections. They will disco
yer that they have but little to boast OF, when it is
known they have forerer lost the State. This was
Mr. Van Burcn's l,st effort. The city of N York
may, in fact, be considered as acquired by pur.
chase =! The public money has been thrown into
it the past season, in vast quantities, aud freely
used. Something like million in specie was
transported from St. L us, gathered in tho difc>
rent land Offices bordering tho Missssppi) to
Nav York and even Philadelphia was made lrib-
utnry 10 the empire city in being compelled to send
thithcr tbs public treasures. Afier all these great
ncnicd operations, the city only carried by
about 1900 votes majority But the honest yco =
many Of the state and county were not to be ca
joed bought. President Van Buren mado the
tour of the state last summer and fall, and went
from county to county making speeches and using
every art and means to scducc the people into hir
support. But all in vain! Even his native coun-
iy, (Columbia) gavc wing majority in conden,-
nation Of his pretcnsions and measures. There
is now decisive majority in both branches of the
legislature az inst Mr.. Van Buren,. of at least 20
This will enable the wings to c.clcct the d.t,n-
guisled and talented senator Mr.. Tal'madgc, TO
congress; and also TO pass Registry law, and
such other sautary enactments as may be required
to protect the rights of the people-.he rights of
suffrage. 1t is believed and there is little doubt,
that in case registry law is passed, allowing
none hut legal pofers TO TO the polls and vote,
that the city will give handsome wing majority
at the Presidential election in 1910. The State is
safe

The RICHMOND ENQUlRER-We respectfully sug-
gest to Mr. Richie to review his two columns in reply
to "JUSTICE We cannot but think that careful
review Of that article and close determination of Mr.
Woodburys report, and the correspondence of the war
department. will bring his disciplined mind to the soundcr
conclusion that the bank DID NOT offer to purchase
its bonds the prescribed by the of congress-
and that the payment ASNOT MADE NOR EVER
INTENDED by either Of the contracting parties to be
made in specie or its equivalent, and placed to the
credit of the treasurer in special deposte in the Bank Of
the United States" and intended to be mo-
ney in hand conformity "with the terms Of the law"
We think the "review," which we advise in all kind
ness and courtesy, that Mr.. Richie will come to the
conclusion that NOT ONE DOLLAR Of the pur-
chase money twas placed to the credit Of the treasurer
in SPECIAL deposit in specie" nor intended by
either contracting party to be SO placed but that all
was placed on GENERAL deposit in single line on
Mr. Bidde's Bank ledger, and that all payments
made, not "money in hand,' but as both contracting
parties was intended in PAPER, and not in SPECIE.
Ay and all sorts Of paper too, and not in the United
States Treasury, bu, at SEVENTEEN distant, and dis

rive net profit to his bank OF five to ten per cent.

am not unaware of the great importance Of roads

The Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1837-1845, 1839-01-31

To the House of Representatives. of the United States
Having considered the bill this day presented TO-
me, entitled Fan act to set apart and pledge certain
funds for internal improvements" and which sets
apart and pledges funds, =" for constructing roads
and canals, and improving the navigation of water
courses, in order to facilitate, promote and give
cury to internal commerce among the several states
and To render more easy and less expensive the
means and provisions for the common defence, i am
constrained by the insuperable difficulty feel in
reconcing the bill with the constitution Of the Uni
ted States, to return it, with that objection, TO the
House of Representatives, in which it originated.
The Legislative powers vested in Congress, are
specified and enumerated in the 9Th section of the
first article of the Constitution and it does not APP
pear that the power, proposed 10 be exercised by the
BILL is among the enumerated powers; or that it
falls by any just interpretation within the power to
make laws necessary and proper for carrying into
execution those or other powers vested by The Con-
slitution in the government of the United States.
The power 10 regulate commerce among the
veral states" cannot include power 10 construct
roads and canals, and to improve the navigation OF
water courses in order to facilitate promote and Sc
cure, such commerce, without latitude Of con
Structon, departing from the ordinary import OF the
terms strengthened by the known Inconvenience
which, doubtless, led 10 the grant OF this remedial
power 10 Congress. To refer the power, in queS-
lion, 10 the clause, "to provide for The common de-
fence and general welfare" would be contrary TO the
established and consistent rules of Interpretation; as
rendering the special and careful enumeration OF
powers which follow the clause, nugatory and i'm
proper. Such view of the Constitution would
have the effect of giving to Congress general
power of Legislation instead OF the defined and linn
tied one hitherto understood TO belong to them; the
terms common defence and general welfare" en-
bracing every object and act within the purview of
Legislative trust. II would have the effect of sub
jecng, both the Constitution and laws of the seve.
raj states, in all cases not specifically exempted to be
superseded by laws of Congress; being expressly
declared, that the Constitution of the United
States, and laws made in pursuance thereof shall be
the supreme law of the land and the judges of every
state shall be bound thereby, any thing in the Con-
>iuon or laws of any state TO the contrary notwith-
standing" Such view Of the Constitution, finally,
would have the effect Of excluding the Judicial al-
thory OF the United States from its participation in
guarding The boundary between the Legislative
powers OF The general and of the state governments
lnasmuch as questions relating TO the general vel
fare, being questions Of policy and expediency, are
unsusceptible Of Judicial cognizance and decision
