And iv. " Journal of the Constitutional Convention. " Found also in Elliot's Debates, vol. V. , and in the Documentary History of the Constitution, vol. Iii. 3 Writings, iii. , 17 ff, and Doc. Hist. , iii. , 17 ff. James Madison 109 league of discordant states to a national state, ex- ercising its authority directly and, within its sphere, supremely over the individuals composing it. Madison believed it essential, if the Union was to be preserved, that there should be a change from the basis of... the old Confederation : its foundation was laid in fundamental error and a return to first prin- ciples was necessary; its defects were radical and unalterable so long as the Union remained a mere confederacy. 1 The chief faults of the Confederation were three in number: first, that it attempted to exercise authority over the States in their corporate capacity without reaching the individuals who com- posed them; second, that each State had an equal voice in the deliberative council of the Union ; third, that it lacked the sanction of the authority of the people for its laws.
