SOVEREIGNTY .
The union and exercise of all human power possessed in a state ;
it is a combination of all power ;
it is the power to do everything in a state without accountability ;
to make laws ,
to execute and to apply them :
to impose and collect taxes ,
and ,
levy ,
contributions ;
to make war or peace ;
to form treaties of alliance or of commerce with foreign nations ,
and the like .

Abstractedly ,
sovereignty resides in the body of the nation and belongs to the people .
But these powers are generally exercised by delegation .
3 .
When analysed ,
sovereignty is naturally divided into three great powers ;
namely ,
the legislative ,
the executive ,
and the judiciary ;
the first is the power to make new laws ,
and to correct and repeal the old ;
the second is the power to execute the laws both at home and abroad ;
and the last is the power to apply the laws to particular facts ;
to judge the disputes which arise among the citizens ,
and to punish crimes .
4 .
Strictly speaking ,
in our republican forms of government ,
the absolute sovereignty of the nation is in the people of the nation ; (
q .
v .)
and the residuary sovereignty of each state ,
not granted to any of its public functionaries ,
is in the people of the state . (
