collectors of the diſtricts. to which ſuch veſſels are bound, 
a particular account thereof; and any ſuch trunk or pack- 
age, on arrival, not appearing, or the ſeal being broken, 
ſubjects the maſter to a penalty of two hundred dollars, 
Such officers may, in like circumſtances, make ſeizures 
where goods are legally forfeited; and if, in any caſe, 
— or reſiſted in the execution of their duty, the 
— offending forfeits a ſum not exceeding four hundred 
dollars. | Rt:

making the compariſon, And in caſe any package which 
ſhall have been reported, be miſſing, the maſter forteits 
five hundred dallars; but may ſave the penalty by making 
due proof before proper authority, that no part of hv 
cargo ſince taken on board, had been unſhipped, except u

tained by appraiſement of two merchants, the collector 
chooſing one, and the owner the other: or goods not 
xccompanied with invoices, may at the option and risk 
of the owner, be kept by the collector till the invoice be

of temporary government, forms a diſtrict, and has a go- 
vernor, ſecretary, and three judges, The governor holds 
his office, ſubject to removal, three years; the ſecretary, 
four; the judges during good behaviour. They are ap- 
pointed by the preſident of the United States, with the ad- 
rice and conſent of the ſenate, and are required, as alfo 
the members of the legiſlative council, when there ſhall 
be a legiſlature, to take an oath or affirmation of fideli

IThis ordinance was entered into for the government

land. He muſt preſerve the laws and acts of the legiſſa. 
ture, public records and. the official proceedings of the ga. 
vernor; and tranſmit ſuch acts and proceedings once in 
ſix menths to the preſident of the United States. The 
judges in like manner muſt reſide in their reſpective dif. 
tris, and have ſeverally frecholds in five hundred acre 
of land therein: but a majority of them is rot requiſite to 
form a bench, any one having power, in the abſence of hit 
aſſociates, to hold a court. The governors and judges are 
required to adopt ſuch laws, criminal and civil, of the ori- 
ginal ſtates, as are moſt appoſite to their reſpective diſtricts; 
which laws, when ſo adopted, muſt be reported to can- 
greſs, and if not diſapproved by them, they have a bind. 
ing efficacyin all parts of the ſaid diſtricts; ſul ject, however, 
to be repealed by the governor and judges, if found to be 
inconvenient, or to be altered by a futwe ſegiſlature. 
Whenever it ſhall happen that there are in either ter. 
ritory five thouſand free male inhabitants of full age, 
a legiſſature is to be formed, conſiſting of the gover- 
nor, a houſe of repreſentatives, and * iſlative coun- 
eil. The repreſentatives are to be choſen by the people, 
and appointed in ſuch manner, that there may be one ta 
every five hundred ſree males, till they amount to twenty- 
five; after which their number and proportion to be re. 
gulated by the legiſlature. They are to be choſen for 
two years, and vacancies to be ſupplied by new elections, 
The legiſlative council is to conſiſt of five members, 
to be nominated by the houſe of repreſentatives of the 
diſtrict, and appointed by the preſident and ſenate of the 
United States; double the number to be appointed being 
returned to the preſident in ſuch nomination. They are 
to continue in office five years unleſs ſooner removed,

The legiſlatyres thus organized, are to be veſted wit 
the ordinary powers of legiſlation; but no bill may be 

ed repugnant to the principles and articles of the 
eorefaid ordinance, nor without the concurrence of the 
three branches. They may by joint ballot appoint dele- 

tes to congreſs, who are to have a ſeat, with a right of 
debating, but not of voting. HE. 

lt is alſo declared in the ſaid ordinance, that the eſtates 
zoth of reſident and non- re ſident proprietors, dying inteſtate, 
ſhall deſcend in equal portions to their children, and the 
deſcendants of deceaſed children; ſuch deſcendants taking 
in equal parts, the ſhare of their deceaſed anceſtor; 
that were there are no lineal heirs, the next of kin in 
equal degree, ſhall inherit equally; that, among collaterals, 
the children of a deceaſed brother or ſiſter of the inteſtate 
ſhall have equal parts among them of their parents 
ſhare; that there no diſtin&tion between kindred of 
the whole and half blood; -and that the right of dower 
be, in all caſes, ſaved to the widow of the inteſtate. 
That the above law, relative to deſcents, ſhall be in 
force till altered by the legiſlatures of the diſtricts; and 
that, till laws be adopted by the governors and judges, | 
eſtates may be deviſed and bequeathed by wills in writing; 
and real eſtates conveyed by leaſe and releaſe, or 
bargain and ſale.— Then follows a general reeognition of 
rivhts ſimilar to what is recogniſed in the Conſtitution of 
the United States. Wherein are reſerved to the people 
the privileges of being free from moleſtation on account of 
religion ; of the writ of habeas corpus, and trial by jury; of 
bail, except in capital caſes ; and of being ſecure in their 
liberties and property; and wherein arefprohibited, immo- 
derate fines and cruel puniſhments; the application of 
private property or ſervice to public uſe without juſt com- 
penſation, laws invalidating private contracts, and ſlavery

It is alſo further declared that the means of education 
ſhall be encouraged. That the utmoſt good. faith ſhall be 
obſerved towards the Indians; that their lands and pro- 
perty ſhall not be taken from them without their conſent,

Brief Abſtrat ſrom the Conſtitution. © 
In the ſtate of New-York, the legiſlature conſiſts of a 
ſenate and an aſſembly, or houſe of repreſentatives. The 
number of ſenators is equal to one third of the aſſembly, 
the whole number of which is at preſent yo, and may ne- 
ver exceed 300. They are elected for four years, and 
claſſed in ſuch manner that the ſeats of a fourth part are 
vacated every year. They muſt be freeholders. Members 
of the 1 are elected annually in May. The qualifi- 6 
cations requiſite to vote for an aſſembly-man, or ſenator, 
aſs are a maturity of age, an oath of allegiance to the ſtate, 
nt, ſx months reſidence, and being a freeholder, and worth 
100l. clear of incumbrance, The ſame qualifications are 
\ required of voters for governor, as of voters ſor ſenators. 
2 And thoſe who are admitted to vote for members of aſſe m- 
bly, in confequence of their being freemen of the cities of 
Albany and New-Vork, muſt have been freemen of the 
former at the time of ratifying the conſtitution in 1777, or 
of the latter, previous to the 4th of October 1775, and 
uſually reſident therein. The governor, chancellor, and 
| judges of the ſupreme court, are, ex officiis, a council for 
the reviſion of all bills about to be paſſed into laws. They 
may object to a bill, but have not a complete negative, 
For two thirds of both houſes adhering to any ball, it 
will finally paſs. | | 
The - governor and lieutenant governor are elected 
once in three years, The governor muſt be a freeholder 
and the lietitenant-governor is, ex officio, preſident of the 
ſenate, has a caſting vote, and executes the functions of 
governor in caſe of vacancy. 
All officers, whoſe appointments are not ſpecially pro- 
vided for in the conſtitution, are choſen by a council of 
1 named from the ſenate annually, by the 
allembly, one perſon being named from each great diſtrict, 
and the ſame perſons being ineligible two years ſucceſſively. 
The governor is, ex officio, preſident thereof, and has a 
caſting vote. | £

lure; the chancellor, judges of the ſupreme, and firſt

their union took place, by an act of the legiflature, in 
Het. In confequence of which they now conſritute a very

more fully appear from the various profeſſorſhips in the 
different ſciences, aud the aggregate number of ſtudents,

Brief Abſtract from the Conſtitutioon. 
THE conſtitutions of Delaware and Pennſylvania being 
very ſimilar, it will be eaſſer, as we have given an ab- 
ſtract from the latter, to note the variations between the 
two, than to attempt a particular detail of the former. 
The principal variations, with regard to the legiſlatures, 
reſpect their qualifications, the time of their election and 
meeting, and the claſſing of; the ſenators. A repreſenta- 
tive muſt, in Delaware, be twenty-four years of age, have 
a freehold in the county, and have been three years 3 
citizen and inhabitant of the ſtate, and the laſt year pre- 
vious to his election, of the county whetein he is choſen, 
unleſs he may have been abſent on the public buſineſs of 
the ſtate, or of the United States. Their number is at 
preſent twenty · one, being ſeven iy each county. A ſena- 
tor muſt be twenty-ſeven years of age, have a frechold 
within the county, in 200 acres of land or. real and pet- 
8 os eſtate te the value of xoool, and have been a citizen 
and.

a court of chancery. The chancellor and judges of the

of the legiſlature, the chancellor, judges of the ſupreme 
court and common pleas, and the attorney general, are, 
ex officiis, conſervators. of the peace through the ftate

prothonotaries, regiſters, recorders, ſheriffs, and coro-

propriety of delegating ſuch truft to one body of men is evi- 


dent. Hence reſults the neceſſity of a different organization. 
It is obviouſly impracticable, in the Federal Government of 


Tueſe States, to fecure all rights of Independent Sovereignty to 
eich, aud yet provide for the intereſt and ſafety of all. Indi- 


viduals entering into ſociety muſt give up a ſhare of liberty 


= preſerve the reſt.” The magnitude of the ſacrifice muſt de- 
p id as well on fituation and circumſtance, as on the object to 


ve obtained, It is at all times difficult to draw with preciſion 


the line between thoſe rights which muſt be ſurrendered, and 
| t1oſe which may be reſerved; and, on the preſent occaſion, 
this diſhculty was increaſed by a difference among the ſeveral 
States, as to their fituation, extent, habits, and particular in- 


ereſts. 
In all our deliberations on this ſubject, we kept ſteadily in 


our view that which appears to us the greateſt intereſt of every | 
true American — the conſolidation of our Union, in which is 


involved our proſperity, felicity, ſafety, perhaps our national ey

preſent, is the reſult-of a ſpirit of amity, and df that mut dal

That it will meet the full and entire apprebation of every

les, conſider, that had her intereſts been alone conſulted, the 


conſequences might have been particularly diſagreeable or in-
