Book Description
Excerpt from Speech of Mr. Ingersoll, on the Proposition to Amend the Constitution of the United States, Respecting the Election of President and Vice President: Delivered in the House of Representatives, March 6, 1826 The amendment, which took place in the early part of Mr. J efferson's administration, in relation to the election of President and Vice President, did not materially change the federative features of the original article. The republican wisdomof 1804, left those features firm and prominent as they 'were introduced by the wise men of '87. But, sir, the amendment now proposed is aimed. At the root of the federative principle; and f it prevails, the small States, if they are not eventually crushed, will be reduced to mere dots, upon the political map of our country Sir, when I am called upon to revise the grave work of the fathers of this republic, and am reminded that my native State was represented in the Convention by the stern republican virtues of old Roger Sherman, aided by, the powerful eloquencex of William Samuel Johnson, I feel oppressed by the magnitude of the subject on which, I am to act; and cannot but regret that, on thfs occasion, my constituents have not an abler representative in the person of the humble individual who now addresses you. But, sir, I shall not shrink from my duty: for, I believe, if I could ask the People whom I have the honor to represent, what course I should here pursue, they would answer-whatever you may do, remember, Don't give up the ship.

Excerpt from Speech of Mr. Hoffman, of N. Y. On the Proposition to Amend the Constitution of the United States: Respecting the Election of President and Vice President; Delivered in the House of Representatives; March 29, 1826 The manner in which it was thought this appointment would generally be made, may be different from some others, the words would admit of. 'l he Convention which framed, and the States who adopted, the Consti tution, undoubtedly believed that the general practice under, this clause would be, that the citizens of the States who were voters would, in some way, appoint the Presidential Electors. This is proved by the histo ry of the times but it cannot be denied that both the framers and adopters of the instrument, being many ofthem excellent lawyers, knew the latitude of appointw ment allowed by this clause. It declares that each State shall appoint, and this word appoint is a most material part of the clause. If any doubts could be rais ed on this subject, the clause should be liberally con strued for the benefit of the States, who, as parties to the compact, reserve this right of appointment to them selves. If I had doubts, a regard to State rights'would induce me to resolve them in favor of the State rand, I would say, the State may make the appointment, by. Any body of men in whom she may chuse, by law, to vest the power of appointment. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
