Excerpt from Course of Lectures on the Constitutional Jurisprudence of the United States: Delivered Annually in Columbia College, New York
In again referring to the venerated name Of Chief Justice marshall, the author can but reiterate his former wish to be understood, on this and all other occasions, as adopting his individual Opinions, not less from deference to their Official authority, than from the conviction wrought by the luminous and profound rea sonings by which they are elucidated and supported. As this eminent and revered judge has himself declared it auspicious to the Constitution and to the country that the new government found such able advocates and interpreters as the authors of the federalist,'i so it may be regarded as one of the most signal advan tages attending its career, that its principles should have been developed and reduced to practice under a judicial administration so admirably qualified, in every respect, to expound them truly, and firmly to sustain them. Since this feeble tribute to his wisdom and virtues, this great judicial magistrate has been summoned to the bar Of a higher than any earthly tribunal, there to receive, we may be certain, that justice, tempered with mercy.
