President, instead of being surprised that such a power is not found in the charter, it would be cause of inexpressible surprise if it were found there; for I am convinced the people never designed to grant it. — This charter was designed to govern and regulate the great political national concerns of the Union, not to in- terfere with the internal regulations, the private or do- mestic concerns of the states. \Such is the opinion of the ii disting"uished statesmen, to whom I before referred. M...r. Madis(;n, in tl:e same number of rhe Federalist be- fore cited, after informing- the people that the powers de- legated to the federal government are few and defined — those that remain to the states niimerous and indefinite, adds, "the former will be exercised principally on exter- nal objects, as war, peace, negociationj and foreign commei ce, with which last, the powers of taxation will for the most part be connected. The power reserved to the sevtral states will extend to all the objects, wliich, in the ordinary course of affairs, concern ihe lives, liberties, and properties of the people, and the internal order, im- provement, and prosperity of the state ;*' and, in the suc- ceeding number, speaking of the state t;overnments, he adds, " By the superintending care of these, all the more domestic and personal interests of the people will be re- gulated and provided for.
