II is conceded by all who have paid the least attention
to the subject that the present with Mexico must
finally result in the acquisition by the United States of
very considerable extent of territory from that country
The acquisition Of this territory must necessarily raise
question: the settlement of which must materially affec
the perpetuity of our republican form of government and
the prosperity and happiness Of the American people
Interest has been found to be the great moving power
of all legislative bodies. II it should happen that the
peculiar interests of of the States of this Union
Should conflict with the interests of majority of the
States, the interests Of this single State would most
questionaby be dsegarded and sacrificed ii the national
Legislature was clothed with power to egslae upon mat
lers of local and internal poty For this reason the
trainers of the constitution of the United States wisely
intended conne the action of the national government,
to matters strictly of national character and TO leave
the management of local affairs and the settlement OF
questions of internal polity exclusively to the several
State governments In country of such vast extent
and of such various and conflicting interests ours
other system of government can succeed. And if Con-
gress SHALL by the assumption and exercise OF powers
not delegated by the constitution, enact laws interfering
directly indirectly with the domestic institutions of any
of the individual States, all confidence in the integrity OF
the general government will be lost, and the only cord
that binds the several States together "or the common
