Summary "The Southern Literary Messenger, Vol. II., No. 7, June, 1836" by Various is a historical periodical written in the early 19th century. This publication serves as a platform focusing on various departments of literature and the fine arts, featuring essays, articles, and contributions from notable authors of the time. The content likely encompasses a mix of literary criticism, creative works, and discussions surrounding contemporary cultural and political issues of the era. The opening of this issue features a detailed examination of the political philosophy surrounding the right of state legislatures to instruct their senators. A correspondent engages in defending the traditional federalist view against the Virginia doctrine of legislative instruction, arguing for the independence of senators to act according to their own judgment rather than being beholden to the local mandates of their state governments. The text not only dives into the political theories of prominent figures like King, Jay, and Hamilton but also reflects the tension between state influence and federal authority that characterized the political landscape of the time. As the opening unfolds, it lays the groundwork for broader discussions about representation, democracy, and governance that would be relevant to readers interested in political theory and American history.
