Madison, who then first gave presages of his future greatness, had ap- pointed commissioners, with a view to form com- mercial regulations for the general control of the states. Commissioners from several states met accordingly at Annapolis, the following year. From the want of adequate powers they separated without effecting the object for which they were delegated. In 1787, on the recommendation of the Massachusetts delegation, composed of Fran- cis Dana and Rufus King, was convened, at Phila...delphia, that memorable assemblage of he- roes and statesman, who met to devise a plan of government which should convey the blessings of liberty to, I trust, the latest generations. From New- York emanated the plan of that national compact which now binds these states 31 together. Hamilton and Madison were its prin- cipal authors. To the former is chiefly due the honor of projecting that happy compromise be- tween the rights of sovereignty and of individuals, so ably expounded on a recent occasion, by a successor to his reputation and glory.
