This fortunate comprise terminated the con. tli-t, which li:ul so long divided and agitated the State. So completely did it close it, that from is a .'option until this time, a peridd iiT til. iiio.i forty years, all local divisions and parties crowing out of them, have entirely ceased, '{'he upper and lower colfntry arc no longer nani s! for politieal discord and agitation, and the State has h-en blessed with an unanh mitvof sentiment and freedom froin parties, altogether witliout example in any other mem. beroflho L'oimi. Nor has its ctiect been Ies3 happy in reference to her federal, than her interiiitl telatioiis. To it, site owes, in a great measure, her weight and high character and landing in tin* i'nion, which, as incoiiMdera: h'e.as she is iii extent of territory and popula* , lion, phires heron a le'-el in influence, with the largest and mo>t populous ofits membe-s.

I Iimvi. .-iIrionTvsf.nu'ii. that it would give an undue ami tinluir preponderance to the upper division of tin' State in its federal relations: ? l'..t?ii has I^Vu said. :t would be restricted to i In * 111 without extending its influence to the gov. > fti;11 ::i iit .?In* .State and giving either of iii great political divisions undue preponderance in it. '1 h?>?e who make this assertion overlook, I iini-t think, the absorbing rharncter of povv. r. .Nothing is more so.?Whenever it acquires i preponderance, he it ever so small, it will doulvaml imperceptibly commence the pro* i.'es* of ahsorpiioii, and continue it until it all* oi!.? the whole power unless efficient measlier* lie taken in time t<> ronteract it. In this case there are several circumstances, which would greatly increase and accelerate this process, which 1 shall now proceed to show. Itsalop'ion wou'd intro luce the principle of taking the sense of the state, as a whole, by the mere numerical majority, without regard to its two great natural and politic;''. divisions* in.I the coiillictiiig interests growing out ol Iheiii?a principle heretofore utterly unknown !??the .s:aSe, cither in it? federal or interior rd. le.tioiis, or in any of the political changes through which it lias passed. Hut, of all the li>rms. of power in a popular government, it is hy fir the most absorbing in its character and in I difficult to contend. It is indeed but the absolute and despotic form of popular govern. meiit. just as much so as the absolute & despbtit! power of one man or a few, is ofthe monarchilm! and a:-is!ncratical. Now, all cxperienfctj 11 Is a CoTi-l.tl.r qua ??l* ii - ^ dencv in a'l coll-'titiilional governments to their , nb.o'ute and despotic form and in none rilorft so, than in popular constitutional governments like that of this State, resting on the principld ol the concurrent majority, a* all such governincuts inu>t. Indeed nothing short of a high ilegn-c of intelligence and constant vigilance can Counteract this tendency, as the hislory ..i .!! ir.,v.>i'iimeats nrove. Ourown botn federal and st uc, already give strong indications of it so much so, (hat it has boconie a fitted uiiiiiitin in a large portion oflhu Union, that tho mere inunercial majority of the wbsde, has the absolute and indefeasible right to govern. But, as absorbing as this power is of itself the inline ,.f the election, in connexion with which it Wniiiil lie introduced, would greatly increase its force. Of all our elections, whether ot the federal or Stato governments, the Presidenti:i| election excites by far the greatest interest, and exerts the greatest influence over the public mind, because, it greatly exceeds all others in importance. Such being tho casp the place of electors is sought by ciliieris dfirU lliience and <li>tinrtion, both on account of its pr miiieneo an l the influence it is calculated to give with the President and his administration in thy distribution of tho honors and emolu. it.'iuils of the federal government should the candidate vo'cj for succed in bring elected; Tiie.se considerations could not fail to induce llio.st who aspire to po promlnont and. desirable a station to eoiir* popular favor ailij especially that ? ? i he divisions of the State, which might have the greatest number of votes and control ' 1 >.t tl.-.r in too many cases e over u"1 i'li t iMMi, .im. ....... ... ven a! the sacrilico of Choir owt); should they li:im rr.sid.? in tho other.
