Page 127 - The navigable waters leading into the Mississippi and St Lawrence, and the carrying places between the same, shall be common highways and forever free, as well to the inhabitants of the said Territory as to the citizens of the United States and those of any other States that may be admitted into the Confederacy, without any tax, impost, or duty therefor.

Page 195 - The genius and character of the whole government seem to be, that Its action Is to be applied to all the external concerns of the nation, and to those Internal concerns which affect the States generally; but not to those which are completely within a particular State, which do not affect other States, and with which It Is not necessary to Interfere for the purpose of executing some of the general powers of the government.
