Book Description
Excerpt from Speech of Mr. McDuffie: On Internal Improvements; With a Few Introductory Remarks, in Answer to a Pamphlet Entitled "Consolidation;" Obvious that there will soon he states in this great confederacy, so remote from the centre, that, without the most improved means of communication, Congress may meet and adjourn before a single interchange of sentiment can take place between the representative and his constituents? Sir, I am sure no member of the committee can be insensible to the importance of these considerations, And, in ascertaining the extent of a power designed for such high purposes, shall we contract our views to a. Mere philological disquisition upon the import of the word establish? Admitting that this word must receive the restricted meaning ascribed to it by some gentlemen, I contend, upon a higher principle than any yet assumed, that the power to establish post offices and post roads.a'nvolvea as an incident the right to make them. And I confess I have been not a little surprized that, while all the other grants in the constitution are admitted to involve incidental powers, this should be regarded as an excaption. Without this 1acidental power, the principal power might be rendered nugatory, either by the caprice of a state government, or by the obstacles of nature. To contend, therefore, that we cannot make post roads, because to establish does not mean to make, is not more reasonable than it would be to maintain that this government cannot make war, because to declare does not mean to make.
