1824 Sept.
Constitutional Code
J.B. ibid. U.S. Constitution.

The Senate of the United States as well as the Senates of all
the individual States being an immitation of the house of
Peers in Britain is a of power without any utility
and perhaps only protracts legislation and is the cause of
unnecessary dissention the senate in the fedral Government only
is a check on the appointment of Officers by the president
by their confirmation being necessary and it has been
observed that they exhort 'appointments to Ambassadors to
be taken from amongst themselves as it is difficult to obtain
a majority in favor of such as has not in their
body in consequence of which the greatest part of the Ambassadors to foreign nations are taken from those either actually
in the Senate or have served in the Senate.

The encroachments by implication of the
government of the Union on the individual States has
been considerable in the Judiciary right of Chartering
Banks &c. &c. and has been as yet tolerated and submitted
to partly owing to the great weight of the Mercantile
Interest in consequence of the neutral trade which
commencing with the fedral government was improperly
attributed to its influence giving it credit
for all the advantages derived from the lucrative
commerce the United States carried on during the
revolutionary war against France that being
now finished the States will most probably be more
tenatious of their rights and not submit their
differences to the decition of the United States
Courts
