Excerpt from The Constitution of the State of Alabama: Adopted August 2d, 1819 We, the People of the Alabama Territory, having the right of admission into the General Government, as a member of the Union, consistent with the Constitution and laws of the United States, by our Representatives, assembled in Convention at the town of Huntsville, on Monday the fifth day of July, one thousand eight hundred and nineteen, in pursuance of an act of Congress, entitled "an act to enable the people of the Alabama Territory to form a Constitution and State Government, and for the admission of such State into the Union, on an equal footing with the original States;" in order to establish justice, ensure tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general welfare, and secure to ourselves and our posterity, the rights of life, liberty and property, Do ordain and establish the following ConstItution, or form of Government: and do mutually agree with each other, to form ourselves into a Free and Independent State, by the name of "The State Of Alabama." And we do hereby recognize, confirm, and establish the boundaries assigned to said State by the Act of Congress aforesaid, "to wit: Beginning at the point where the thirty-first degree of north latitude intersects the Perdido River, thence east to the western boundary line of the State of Georgia; thence along said line to the southern boundary line of the State of Tennessee; thence west along said boundary line to the Tennessee River; thence up the same to the mouth of Bear Creek; thence by a direct line, to the north-west corner of Washington county: thence due south to the Gulph of Mexico; thence eastwardly including all Islands within six leagues of the shore, to the Perdido River; and thence up the same to the beginning" - subject to such alteration as is provided in the third section of said Act of Congress, and subject to such enlargement as may be made by law in consequence of any cession of Territory by the United States or either of them. That the general, great and essential principles of liberty and free government may be recognized and established, We Declare: Sec.1. That all freemen, when they form a social compact, are equal in rights; and that no man or set of men are entitled to exclusive, separate public emoluments or privileges, but in consideration of public services.
