How im portanf therefore to hi just fame, and how consistent with his proper dignity, would it not be. thai he should cast off all ex-oflicial influence, and look to the Na tional Councils, and his own proper Coun sc-llors for light to guide his steps! Put a ttuce to these u flections, and to resume the thread of our argument. When we said in cur last number on this subject, that the Veto power of the President is a vice tn our poldical system, we meant of course w Veto in its present latitude. With such modification as the otherwise universal principle of our Government that rtlainlv iioints to a Netrafive upon Bills, is a power which might j arei, arm perlinp advantageously, re. ; main with (he Executive, Let the Prcsi- j dent retain he rirht to return within ten j ias, hut also the Session nj Coni . . i gress with his objections, any Pill 'hat shall have passed both Houses of Congress; but let the sa'ne Pill, if not returned within the session, or IVing returned, again r eceived a m ajor ity of the votes in each House, become a law. This form, that is of two successive enactments by the Legislative Bodice, is in one of ihe State (Maryland) the process for amending the Constitution of the State, except that Ihe recjuired sanction must he given, not by the same, but by successive Legislatures. If this he a sufficient restraint upon amendments of a Constitution, how much more than sufficient ouht it not to be upon the ordinary exercise of the Le gislative power To apply these remarks more immedi a ately to the subject of these essays, let ll,n I. .1....

But we nave nign auiuorny ir me rnasim inai the lines of duty are as much transgressed by the more independent and less respect ful exercise of acknowledged powers, as by the usurpation of such as are new and unusual.' Will ii he maintained, that every act is justifiable that is within the pow. er of the President? Surely not. lie may be as culpable for excesses committed under color of the Constitution, as for those against the letter of it. Suppose the President were to refuse to sign all appropriation bills, as he has heretofore done in the case of the particular ones, and bring lhe wheels of Government to a stand-still. This he might do, as in the case of the bills already referred to, without leaving to Congress the option to pass them by the required majority. Would such an act he Constitutional? Or would it not he an arbitrary if not tyrannous ahorse of power? The character of every act of a public officer, as of every individual ia social life, mut be determined by circumstances It might be laudable in the Pre sident to negative the Bank Bill offered to hita to day, and yet mere exuberance

at all A Congress of the United Stales

says the Constitution, 'which shall consist of a Senate awl House of Representatives? It is clear ihai in the partition ..f the rowers ot the Government, the President whs not considered, co-ordinately with the two lloues of Congress, one of the depositones of Legislative power The authority to negative hills vas not therefore given, for every day use. nor for ordinary caset. Let no one say that the power is without limitation, other than that which is expressed in the clause of the Constitution which confers it. The President, no more than any other officer of the Government, poesses power without limit; for he is liable, with them, to impeachment for misuse of power. The Veto power was ne ver put into the Constitution for the purposes to w hi' h it has been applied. That part of the Constitution is to he construed, like all other parts ot it, with dnect refer ence to the sense in which its language was understood at the time ot its being1 inserted in that instrument. The framers of the Constitution undoubtedly copied . i " ' this feature from the correspond inr trait - - - - - of the British Constitution. They considered i' a?, a power 'which could seldom he exerted even in a monarchy, and by a hereditary King without some degree of National agitation They understood it as a power granted to the President, not to cramp and curb the Legislative power, but to save his own person and power from restraint and encroachment. On that ground was this provision of the Constitution mainly justified by the advocates of the Constitution. Without it. said tl.e , Mhe Executive would be absolutely unable to defend himself against the depredations of the Legislative branches. Will tt be pretended that the Bank Bill intruded upon the rights of the Executive, and that it vas necessary, in 9elf defence, to trample under loot this act of the Le gislative power ? It was to he sure incidentally argued in tavor ot the Veto power, by its adroi.irs, mai ii wouiu operaie as a cnecK . u .. . i upon precipitate or mutable legislation. Its exerc ise was not certainly iustifiable on either giound in the case of the Bank j Bill; for the President himself had, thiee years before, told Congress that they could not too soon act upon it, and the object of the bill was to give stability to the laws of the country, and not change them The delenders of the veto appear to have admitted it to be a power 'odious in appearance,' contenting themselves with reasoning analogically, from the practice ia the British Government, that it was a power which would only he exercised ia a case of extreme necessitv. Was the Bank Bill, in any view of it, a case for the exercise of a power so dictatorial? Had the case been reversed, and Congress had, reckless of consequmces, made the at tempt to put down so useful an Institution as the Bank, the extremity of the caso would much more have justified the es ercise of the veto power Was it evep intended that this Government should be so administered as that the President should have a veto from his mere will, upon the acts of Congress, whilst not lees than two thirds of Congress can exercise i any efficient control over his acts? Our ( forefathers intended to establish no buch despotism. And yet, to return to our first position, it is upon the assumption of (bis Dictatorial power, that the Spoils men, with their whole band of pensioners and presses, aro vociferating, with one acclaim, Down with the Bank! A true version of this war. in reference to what they rely upon lor putting down the Bank, would be, Down vnxn IHE LIBERTIES OF THE PEOPLE1. The annual light-house and harbor bills We are aware that it has been maintained that a hill retained by the President untihaftcr 1 lhe termmntion of a Congress, (that is when Congress do not by adjournment prevent its rc- , conBreM dissolve, and its tunc , i(IM rPast. becomes a law. and that therefore the Land Cillof the last Session is now properly the law of the land. There is more in this argument, too, than has yet been answered. 1769.
