“Without the Constitution and the Union, we could not have attained the result; but even these, are not the primary cause of our great prosperity.

That something, is the principle of “Liberty to all”Mthe principle that clears the path for all—gives hope to all—and, by consequence, enterprize [sic], and industry to all.”
