1828 States Rights Dispute From Charleston SC

Here is another great piece from our Constitutional History. This CD contains a page for page photo copy of the essays dealing with the Constitution from the 1828 Southern Reviews. This contains an argument as early as 1828 that reveals that the Southern States had already contended that the Federal Government had stepped out of line and had usurped powers not delegated to them. This essay goes into the constitutional history to prove the true intent of the framers of the Constitution and proves that their intents were carried out specially as outlined in Article 1 section 8. It annotates the specifics and shows the limits clearly understood by the convention. While most students of history are taught that the war between the North and the South was over slavery they are unaware of the constant struggle between the two section decades before the war concerning States Rights. This and many other documents stand as undisputed evidence that such a conflict existed. It was publications such as the Southern Review out of Charleston South Carolina that made for the debates in Congress in the early 1830's where Haynes and Daniel Webster argued in the Halls of Congress. The debate has never been settled but grew until a war had to put one of the sides under it’s blade to stop the facts from being heard. If you want to see the proof then this is just one of them. I certifying this to be a true and correct copy of this infamous publication that help arouse the battle between the states. It is a history of the Revolutionary war and giving the status of all the States before and after the war. It contends that the States only delegated certain powers to the Federal government and just a few years in office has usurped powers. This is what the facts of History tells us about the coming war between the States.
