''But the Constitution cannot he maintained.
nor the Union preserved, in opposition to public
feeling, by the mere exertion OF the coercive
powers cOnfded to the General Government.
The foundations must he laid in the affections
of the people; in the seeuritv which il gives to
lie, liberty aud property IN every quarter OF the
country and in the fraternal attachments which
the citizens OF the several States bear one to an
other as members of one political family, mu
tu'lly contributing 10 promote the happiness of
each other. Hence, the citizens of each State
should studiously avoid everything calculated
10 wound the sensibility or offend the Just
pride OF the people of other States; and they
should frown upon any proceedings within their

Union.
Ia "a country 80 extensive rs the United States,
and in pursuits so varied, the internal re.ula-
tons of the several States must frequently differ
from one another IN important PARTICULARS; and
this difference is UNAVOIDABLE increased by the

ONES were originally planted; principles which
had taken deep root ia their social relations before

questionable right to regulate its own internal
concerns according to its own pleasure; and While
1t does not interfere with the rights Of the people
of other States, or The rights o! the Union, every
State must be the sole judge of the measures
proper TO secure the safety of its citizens and
promote their happiness; and all efforts on the
part of the people OF othes Suites to cast odium
upon their institutions, and all measures calcu-
lated Ia disturb their rights of property, or to put

of philanthropy may be assigned for this
understandable interference. and weak men NAV
persuade themselves, for n moment, that they are
laboring IN the cause of humanity, and asserting
