''But the Constitution cannot be maintained
nor the Union preserved, in opposition to public
feeling, 10y the mere exerton OF the coercive
powers coufded To the General Government
The foundations must be laid in the affections
of the people; IN the security which IL gives to
life, liberty and property in every quarter OF the
country and in the fraternal attachments which
the citizens OF the several States bear one To All
other members of one political family. mu

10 wound the sensibility or offend the just
pride OF the people of other States; and they
should irown upon any proceedings within their
own borders likely 10 disturb the tranquility of
their political brethren in other portions OF the
Union.
In "A country so extensive ~ the United States
and in pursuits varied. the internal resua-
tons Of the several States must frequently differ

this difference Is unavoidably increased ny the
varying principles upon which the American col
ONES were originally planted principles which
had taken deep in their social relations before
the Revolution, aud therefore, OF necessity, in
huencing their policy since they became free and
independent States. But each State has the un
questionable right to regulate it, own internal
concerns according to its own pleasure: and while
il does not interfere with the rights of the people
OF other States, or he rights OF 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 other States To east odium
upon their institutions, and all measures calcu-
lated to disturb their rights of property, or to put
in jeopardy their peace and internal tranquility,
are III direct opposition TO the spirit in which the
Union was formed. and must endanger its safety.
Motives of philanthropy may he assigned for this
unwarrantable interference. and weak men may
persuade themselves. for moment. that they are
aborng in the OF humanity. and asserting
the rights of the human race, but every one,
upon sober reflection. will see that nothing but
mischief can come from these improper assaults
upon the feelings and rights of others Rest ~
sured that the men found busy in this work of

deserve Your strongest reprobatlon.'
