1st. An indissoluble Union of the States under one Federal Head.

Thanks, but no thanks. That completely refutes the Declaration of Independence. We, the people have the power to reform government as we desire, when we desire, to best meet our needs.

Not at all.

Article XIII of the Articles of Confederation: . . . And the Articles of this confederation shall be inviolably observed by every State, and the union shall be perpetual; . . .

He asked for strengthening of the Confederation so that Congress could meet its Article III responsibilities.

Article III. The said States hereby severally enter into a firm league of friendship with each other, for their common defense, the security of their liberties, and their mutual and general welfare, binding themselves to assist each other, against all force offered to, or attacks made upon them, or any of them, on account of religion, sovereignty, trade, or any other pretense whatever.
