WHAT THE STATES WERE BEFORE
Us1oN.-Judge Story gives gra-
phic picture of what the States
were before the adoption of the
present Union, and What they
would likely be again, if it should
he dissolved. ..
The most opposite commercial
regulations existed in the different
States; and, in many cases, especial
ly between neighboring States,
there was perpetual course Of re-
talitory legislation, from their jea-
luusies and rivalries in commerce,
in agriculture, or in manufactures.
Foreign nations did not fail to avail
themselves of all the advantages
accruing to themselves from this
suicidal policy. tending to the COM
mon ruin. And as the evils grew
more pressing, the resentments of

tie conciousness that their local in.
terests were placed in opposition tc
each other, were daily increasing
the mass of disafection, untilit be-
came obvious that the dangers of
immediate wareiare between some
Of the states were eminent.
But the evil did not rest here. Our
foreign commerce was not only Grip
pied, but almost destroyed. For
eign nations imposed upon our ma
vigation and trade just such res
trictions as they deemed best to
their own interest and policy. All
of them had a common interest to
steal our trade and enlarge their
own. They did not fail to avail
themselves to the utmost. Of their
advantages. They persued a asystem
OF the most rigorous exclusion Of
our shipping from all the benefits
OF their own commerce; and endea-
vcred to secure, with a bold and
unhesitating confidence, a monopo-
ly of ours. The effects of this sys-
tenn of operations, combined with
our political weakness, were soon
visible. Our navigation was ruin
ed; our mechanics were in a state
of inxetricable poverty; our agricul-
'nre was witbered; and the little
money still found in the country
was gradually finding its way
to supply our Immediate
wants; and a state of alarming en-
barrasment, in the most difficult
and delicate of.all relationship

]itors-threatened daily an over
