the second, Congress is empowered to lay taxes, under certain restrictions, to provide for the common defense and general welfare. A sovereign or absolute right to dispose of these requisitions or taxes without any restriction is not given to Congress by either.

The heart-beat was passionate in all sections but New England— our country right or wrong. (Schouler's History of the United States, vol. 4, p. 528.) In addition to the movements of Generals Taylor and Scott into the heart of Mexico, expeditions were planned to take possession of the northern portions, which
