ADMONITION OF JACKSON.

Farewell Address, March 3, 1871
"But the Constitution cannot be maintained.
nor the L uion preserved, in opposition to public
feeling, by the exertion of the coercve
powers conhded 10 the General Government.
The foundations must be laid in the affections
of the people; in the security which it 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 To an
other as members of one political family, mu
tually contributing to promote the happiness of
each other. Hence, the citizens of each State
should studiously avoid everything calculated
To wound the sensibility or offend the just
pride of the people of other States and they
should frown upon any proceedings within their
own borders likely TO disturb the tranquility of
their political brethren in other portions of the
Union.
In a country so extensive the United States
and in pursuits so varied, the internal regula-
tons of the several States must frequently differ
from another in important particulars; and
this difference is unavodably increased by the
varying principles upon which the American col
onies were originally planted; principles which
had tiken deep root in their social relations before
the Revolution. and therefore, of necessity. in
fuencing their policy since they became free and
Independent States. But each State has the
questionable right to regulate its own internal
concerns according to IFS own pleasure; and while
it does not interfere with the rights of the people
of other States, The rights OF the Union. every
State must he 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 cacu-
lated to disturb their lights of property, to put
in jeopardy their peace and internal tranquility
in direct opposition to the spirit i'm which the
Union WAS formed, and must endanger its safety
Motives OF philanthropy may be assigned for this
unwarrantable interference. and weak men may
persuade themselves. for a moment, that they are
aborng in the cause 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 rs
sured that the men found busy in this work of
discord are not worthy of your confidence, and
deserve your strongest reprobation."
BY JAMES MADISON.
fFederalist, No. Al
"Hearken not to the unnatural voice which
tells you that the people of America, knit to
gether ms they are by so many cords of affection.
no longer live together members of the
same family; can no longer continue the mutual
guardians OF their mutual happiness: can no
longer be fellow citizens of our great respectable
and hourishing empire. Hearken not TO the voice
which petulantly tells you that the Government
recommended for your adoption is novelty in
the political world that il has never vet had a
place in the theories OF the widest projectors that
it rashly attempts what il is impossible to accom-
plish. No, my country men; shut your ears against
this unhallowed language; shut your hearts against
the poison which il conveys. The kindred blood
which flows in the veins of American citizens,
the mingled blood which they have shed in de-
tense of their sacred rights, consecrate their
Union. and excite horror at the idea OF their be-
coming. aliens. rivals, enemies. And if novel
ties are To be stunned. believe me the most
alarming of all novelties. the most wild of all
projects. Is that of rending in pieces III order
TO preserve our liberties and promote our hap
pIne>s.
