own borders likely 10 disturb the tranquility Of
their political brethren in other portions Of the
Union
Ia country so extensive as the United States
aud IN pursuits so varied. the internal regula-
tions Of the several States must frequently differ
from one another in important particulars: aud
this difference u unavoidably increased by the
varying principles upon which the American col.
onies we're originally planted; principles which
had taken deep root IN their social relations before
the Revolution, and therefore, OF necessity In
huencing their policy since they became free aud
independent States Bat each State has the un.
questionable right - regulate ts own internal
concerns according TO its own pleasure; and while
il does not interfere with the rights Of the people
Of other States, or the rights OF the Union. every
State must be the sole judge of the measures
proper 10 secure the safety of its citizens and
promote their happiness; and all efforts on the
part OF the people OF other States to cast odium
upon their Institutions, and all measures calcu-
lated disturb their rights of property, or to put
in jeopardy their peace and internal tranquility,
are in direct opposition 10 the spirit in which the
Union formed, and must endancer its safety.
Motives OF philanthropy may be assigned for this
unwarrantable interference. and weak men may
persuade themselves. for a moment that they are
laburing 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 AS
sured that the men found busy in this work of
discord are not worthy of your confidence, and
deserve your strongest reprobation."

"Hearken not to the unnatural voice which
tells you that the people OF America, knit To
eether MS they are by SO many eoris of affection,
can 10 Longer live together as members of the
same family; can no longer continue the mutual
guardians oil their mutual happiness; can no
longer be fellow citizens of our great respectable
and hourishing empire. Hearken not to the voice
which petulanty tells YOU that the Government
recommended for your adoption is Il novelty in
the political world; that il has never vet had
place in the theories OF the widest projectors that
il rashlv attempts what il i impossible 10 accom-
pllsh. No. my country men; shut your ears against
this unal low Ell language; shut your hearts ganst
the poison which it conveys. The kindred blood
which flows in the veins of American citizens,
the mingled blood which they have shed in de-
iense OF their sacred rights. consecrare 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 Us in pieces IN order
to preserve our Liberties and promote our hap
plne-s."
