f H t he modern effort to locate American liberties,
JL it turns out; began in the mud at the bottom
of Baltimore harbor. John Barron Jr. and John Craig
sued the city for damages after Baltimore’s rebuilt
drainage system diverted water and sediment into
the harbor, preventing large ships from tying up
at Barron and Craig’s wharf. By the time the case
reached the U.S. Supreme Court in 1833, the issue
had become whether the city’s actions constituted
a taking of property by the state without just
compensation, a violation of the Fifth Amendment
to the U.S. Constitution. 'The high court’s decision
in Barron v. Baltimore marked a critical step in the
rapid evolution of law and constitutional rights
during the first half of the nineteenth century.
Diminishing the Bill of Rights examines the
backstory and context of this decision as a turning
point in the development of our current conception
of individual rights. Since the colonial period,
Americans had viewed their rights as springing
from multiple sources, including the common law,
natural right, and English legal tradition. Despite
this rich heritage and a prohibition grounded in the
Magna Carta against uncompensated state takings
of property, the Court ruled against Barron’s claim.
The Bill of Rights, Chief Justice John Marshall
declared in his opinion for the majority, restrained
only the federal government, not the states. The
Fifth Amendment, accordingly, did not apply to
IVIaryland or any of the cities it chartered.
In explaining how the Court came to reject a
multisourced view of human liberties-a position
seemingly inconsistent with its previous decisions-
William Davenport IVlercer helps explain why
we now envision the Constitution as essential to
guaranteeing our rights. Zvlarshall's view of rights
in Barron., IVtercer argues, helped him navigate the
Court through the precarious political currents of
the time. While the chief justice may have effected
a shrewd political maneuver, the decision helped
hasten a reconceptualization of rights as located in
documents. Its legacy, as Zvlercer’s work makes clear,
is among the Jacksonian era's significant democratic
reforms and marks the emergence of a distinctly
American constitutionalism.
