 rot your letter three days ago, and

 ssbt glad to find you understood cor

 s6le about the last letter l wrote {

 You say now that a good many folk

 r0or parts have got a notion, that tn

 ,snton is agin all banks, and tha

 mess haint got no right to make an

 and want you to larn ii have an

 to say on the matter. We'll now, thi,

 ,asderable of a job, especially in suel

 hot weather, and so must take of

 coat for a spell, and give yoa my no.

 inc first place, then, who and what is

 rnsss ?-Nhen We git that well under

 then things will work easy.

 lecordin to my notion, Compress is he

 E Every man in Congress acting for It4othousaad people, just as you would l down barrel of cider to a gallon. and

 according to the nature of that barrel of

 <. VII be the nature of that gallon of

 juice.

 Whatever Congress chuses to do for the ] d and well beia of the people, t is isl

 sane as if the people did t themselves. Lsa fdeP Peopis are sovereign, Congress. EdOgfor5em $ 8ouereiga; but Congress Ea al according to the constitution. J aBsf s- 4l-H H'----stisntson + orI osr of an agreement n1ade a 6daai $ dai \, vpsfs ago, jist arter the old war, when i fs OIa Continental states got together, arssd upon government for the hull |.os o1 er. t0ne State gigin up d leetle l X powers to another, and takin some | ia turn and arter long talk, and |seipg on all matters, made Gonstita- |. or set of rules for the good of the hull | any man takes up that Constitution, [rais t, man and boy, as have, if he say t is about as complete a piece of N as was ever put together, then I'li Ia 10 give him my Commission, and !aa iii my regimentals, and ax in the bar There amt one thing that Congress can according to that Constitution, and do ,peoble any harm DO way for the folks 4 made it seem'd to look on all sides of sH line out. They knew there were two ss to pewter platter-and they turned Y article over and over, and examined sides, back and front, and sideways l; that no possibility should happen for folks aiare only actin two years for the people do the people any harm. The great iarim point was for Congress to have the bower aeing for the people, to do all lhe bod 6rhe people possible, and jist as the eope would do for themselves but then gam, kaowin fhe natnr of man, and that 2 night sometimes do harm when he laat to do good, or Pfetended to do good, HT put in all kind ol ehecks-somethn Ter this lashion-Coneyess might git a aion 10 say thai 1t would not do for some A 10 have too much property, and 1t aad Le host te scatter it. so that sumo Aal not be too rich and others too poor, |i6 prevent this, the Consultation says

 mn shall be deprived of his property |saa compensation. Then agin. Con- |asdgat take a notion hat certain folks sqaa the country, or be put in prison. aa " for tte rilbllc good; but tbe same |stutlon says no man shall be deprived aS nights or his liberty without a regular sIbY Jury composed of men jist like him. ai and so fl goes on from one pint to ldAer and wherever there was possi- tfy tor Congress to make some mistake lhs nature, the Constitution pins em sAl down, and tells them not only what Y eaa do but what they can't do '; and is a latter pint Is by far the most important. The Constitution lets Congress- do all R good t can, but t takes plagy good ae to keep 1t from doing loo much good, men IS often the nature of our public oOes to do, and especially when they gil ta'ed' pst like these folks q spell ago il Oul ely who got a notion of doing SC iuGn .I good they thought they'd try and sec li 'AeF couldn't make all the black men n'e' and white men black; and this, tho Vt dsln law, that Is, there was no law agin .i 'lg'll vas agsla natar, torif yon mix black "o' @ and white wool together, 1t makes ,l. ,g al a, the world over; but if you go to ~ @ plaek folks and white together, il ,, n'ss yellow, and that shows il is agir as'' a,.I Il t amt agin law, and what is agin ''e' e ought to be agin law.

 ,. pu' Il amt agln law nor mater for Con- ,,sI' oaa aelln for the people, to do all tht 0;0n r 'ifY can for the people, providin, il ,S ,%s so, there aint nothing in the Consti- a s4 dssln lt-and that bein well understood ,.,. ''le now to consider what right Con i9s Te las to make Bank.

 a l q nave night notion ont, at the tim, 0o D0HSa'iliion was made, the folks didn' ,s much of the mater of Rankin a r,o 9 " now-some had tried 1t, especially ,d le U, the old Continental States, anC
