The power is to lay and collect taxes, du- ties, imposts and excises; to pay the debts and provide for the common defence and general welfare. "So that they can only raise money by these means in oi'der to provide for the common defence and general welfare. No man who reads it, can say it is general, as the honorable gentleman represents it. You must violate every rule of construction and common sense if you sever it from the potoer of raising money and annex it to any thing else in order to ma...ke it that formidable power which it is represented to 6«. " — (Ibid, 3rd vol. , page 541. ) Gov. Randolph was not only a member of the Federal Con- vention, in which the Constitution was adopted, but it was on the basis of his resolutions principally framed. If it can be supposed that any one understood what it was intended that the Constitution should mean, it certainly was he. He does un- equivocally say, in this speech, that not only he, but every mem- ber in the Convention from the Southern States, fully under- stood what the intention of those were who framed the Constitu- tion, in regard to the subject of slavery.
