Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Dangerous Condition of the Country, the Causes Which Have Lead to It, and the Duty of the People I. - No reflecting citizen can be insensible to the dangerous condition of the country. It affects injuriously every interest, private and public. It palsies industry in all its branches, and shakes the financial credit of the Government; and whilst it lessens the means of meeting its demands, it renders more oppressive the burthen of taxation. It paralyzes commerce, without whose healthful condition the nation cannot prosper. Our fathers thought, and experience has clearly proved it to be true, that without a real union of all the States, and they and their people possessing equal rights, the nation could not prosper. With that view they adopted the Constitution of the General Government. They clothed it with all the powers necessary to its preservation, and designed it to be perpetual. In the language of its preamble their object was to "secure the blessings of liberty to themselves and their posterity." One of the cardinal principles of the Government thus formed is the equality of the States. Its very existence depends upon the continuance of that equality. They are made equal in the Senate as to representation without regard to population, and in the House of Representatives, according to population. They and their people are alike secured in the benefits of the judicial department, and in every State and personal guarantee.
