Seite 442 - But this momentous question, like a fire bell in the night, awakened and filled me with terror. I considered it at once as the knell of the Union. It is hushed, indeed, for the moment. But this is a reprieve only, not a final sentence.

Seite 602 - That to this compact each state acceded as a state, and is an integral party, its co-states forming as to itself, the other party : That the government created by this compact was not made the exclusive or final jvdge of the extent of the powers delegated to itself ; since that would have made its discretion, and not the Constitution, the measure of its powers...
