That this form of Government contained Btato soveroignty, I prove by quoting tho second article, viz.: “ Each Btata rataiug ita govereignty, freedom, and lndu{mnduncu, and every power, jurisdiction, nud right, ‘which is not,” by this Confederation, exvressly doi- egated o the United States in Congress assowm- biod.” Iuro we bave Stato sovoreignty in torms, aud alee the claim that each State is the source of power, to be dolegated to or with- bold from Congross at tho plonsurs of tho Stato; and, mioreovor, that, in caso toere is no expross dologation of powor or riglt of any kind ta Con groes, evorythiog of that nature 1s, as a mattor of courso, Yotaiued in tho State. Fuller Btate sovereigoty, it would secw, could not be ecatab- lished thon in our Confedoracy. Woll, this sya- tom of Government was fairly tried the requi- eite period 28 montionea, What was tho result? Why, it was found just as absurd and imp:acti- oablo to have & political systom—or systom of Governmant—with thiiteon soveroign Btates in it, ns ft would be to have a- theological systom with thirteon sovoroign Gods'in ik, Hear what Wasbington saya in lis lotter of Sept. 17, 1787: M1t la obviously impracticable, in the Fedaral Government of these States, to sccuro all rights of indopondent sovereignty in each, and yet pro- vide for tho intorest and safety of all.” ‘fuat is the upsbot of the experiment. Horo wo bave: Nao. 1, State goversignty; No 2, failure; and now we come to No. 4, the Con- atitucion of tho United Statos, What docs thab say?
