Guatemala. J.B. to Del Valle.

As between the ordinary or say uncompounded
form of Government, and the compounded
or say federal form, the uncompounded
is that assumed in my Code as being
one unvaried thing, free from no small quantity
of difficulty which has place in the other
case. For as to the compounded, it presents difficulties
not only in the least variegated state
of which it is susceptible, that is to say on the
supposition that all the states are circumstanced
alike, but the difficulty is aggravated by this
viz that the number of the confederated and
constituent states is to an indefinite degree
susceptible of variation, but in a great variety
of respects, every one may be different from
every other.
On this occasion, these sources of
mutual wrong and disagreement present
themselves: 1. contributions for the common
exigencies in money; 2. contributions for the
common exigencies in men; 3. Detriment
liable to be produced with an injustice
to the trade of every other.
