deavor to excite belief that there is real dit
ference of local interests and views. One Of the
expedients of party TO acquire influence within
particular districts, is to msrepresent the opinion:

Farewell Address, March }, 1s27l
"But the Constitution cannot be maintained
nor the Union preserved in opposition to publi
feeling, by the exerton Of the coerciv
powers con6ded TO the General Government
The foundations must be laid i'm the affection
of the people; in the security which it gives q
life, liberty and property in every quarter of tn
country and in the fraternal attachments whic
the citizens of the several States bear one to an
other members of one political family, mu
tually contributing TO promote the happiness o
each other Hence, the citizens of each Stat
should studiously avoid everything calculates
to wound the sensibility or offend the jus
pride of the people of other States; and the
should frown upon any proceedings within thei
own borders likely to disturb the tranquility O
their political brethren in other portions of tn

In country extensive as the United States
and i'm pursuits varied, the internal regua
tons OF the several States mus frequently dfe
from one another in important particulars; an
this difference is unavodably increased by til
varying principles upon which the American col
ones were originally planted; principles wbic
had taken deep root in their social relations bsfor
the Revolution, and therefore of necessity, in
fuencing their policy since they became free an
independent States. But each State has the ur
questionable right to regulate its own interns
/ concerns according to its own pleasure; and whil
it does not interfere with the rights Of the peopl
of other States, or the rights of the Union ever

proper TO secure the safety of its citizens an

part of the people of other States to cast odiur
upon their institutions, and all measures calcr
lated to disturb their rights of property, to pu
in jeopardy their peace and internal trnqulit,
are in direct opposition to the spirit in which th
Union was formed, and must endanger its safet,
