These belong to the fourth class of the
enumerated cases, as they have an evident connection with the
preservation of the national peace.
Third. To cases of admiralty and maritime jurisdiction. These form,
altogether, the fifth of the enumerated classes of causes proper for the
cognizance of the national courts.
Fourth. To controversies to which the United States shall be a party.
These constitute the third of those classes.
Fifth. To controversies between two or more States; between a State and
citizens of another State; between citizens of different States. These
belong to the fourth of those classes, and partake, in some measure, of
the nature of the last.
Sixth. To cases between the citizens of the same State, claiming lands
under grants of different States. These fall within the last class, and
are the only instances in which the proposed Constitution directly
contemplates the cognizance of disputes between the citizens of the same
State.
Seventh. To cases between a State and the citizens thereof, and foreign
States, citizens, or subjects. These have been already explained to
belong to the fourth of the enumerated classes, and have been shown to
be, in a peculiar manner, the proper subjects of the national
judicature.
