 Oa the 23.h August, l7SZ, t was moved and seconded 10 agree 10 the following pro ! position as a substitute for the article 10 which

 have just referred;

 "New States may be admitted by the Le- cislature into the Union; but no new States ahaIi be erar;ed within the limits of any oi the present States, without tHe consent of the Lag.siause oi such State, as well as of the general Legislature

 The restriction was thus abandoned, and the power lel unlimited to admitnew States, whether within the limits of the United States or composed oi foreign territory and the article in the consultation was finally adopted as i how appears iu the instrument.

 Thus il appears that from the 29th May. until the 29jh August, 1882, the convention had adhered to the proposition of putting a limitation on the admission clause, but had finally rejected this iIlbesal proposition and stricken | out of their draught And thag had acted wisely for no human foresight could then, or now, tell what Was 10 be the destiny of the new born Republic, whose constitution they were entrusted 10 prepare i; and to Aaee limited t in the manaarptoPosed by gentlemen on the other side, WoulI have accordeauaithcr with the wisdom nor the pro- lound staicsmanship oi those eminent men.

II the gentle man had bat proceeded ac ftr as that, he would have found the astonishing fact that tie olI eonlcdratoa had no power to admit any otie' than d foreign Sae. 'fheirpoWer ot admission was confined within this limit. The only clause ii the articles of conftdefa- ton referring 10 tle admission ol new States was this

 "Caaaaa, needing to the confederation, and joining in the measure ol the U. States. shall be admitted mo and entitled to all the adylntages' of tae union; hutno other colony shall be admitted into the sane, unless such admission be agreed ta bv nine Sales

Wih cal propiety, therefore, has the new system supplied the deoct,o

 Now, 3lr. E. asked. co0i1 language be palmer Heretofore the confederation could admit none but foreign States. and these Bri- tsh colonies; but, expressly 5o o5via.e this very difficulty, the tramss ol the conslita- ton struck out all limitation of every kind, and Jeff the provision in such unreslrcted terms as enabled Congress to admit any S.aie whatever that had adopted republican form oi' 'tiovetumeul. Then eyes were fixed on Cana4a; aud this WIS Mir. Madison's allusoa when ite spoke of States that might arise "jn our neighborhood. Thef had desired, above all things, that Canada might unite with them lu the War, and. ln order that s6e might now come in, the provisions of the constitution were enlarged. Who would contend thatin- stead of beng enlarged, the powers formerly enjoyed by the confederation were abridged and narrowed down in the new constitution, so restricted that Canada never could be re- ceiyea 10 the end ol time IS a Sate of thc Union?

 Nearly contempoEneous with these expo si6ons oi the constitution lived the venerable Nathaniel Atacoa, celebrated patriot of lhe strul-eoastruction school--a statesman in whom was no guiie--a man who, fer pFae- tical wisdom and sound good sense. never had his superior among us. He was the liak that connected the pas age with the present: ami safe 8lf B. #as that there was no gen lrman here who would not accord 10 hm all he had saitl, aud more.
