Answer:
In addition to the drain of silver, by 1838 the number of Chinese opium addicts had grown to between four and 12 million and the Daoguang Emperor demanded action. Officials at the court who advocated legalizing and taxing the trade were defeated by those who advocated suppressing it. The Emperor sent the leader of the hard line faction, Special Imperial Commissioner Lin Zexu, to Canton, where he quickly arrested Chinese opium dealers and summarily demanded that foreign firms turn over their stocks with no compensation. When they refused, Lin stopped trade altogether and placed the foreign residents under virtual siege in their factories. The British Superintendent of Trade in China Charles Elliot got the British traders to agree to hand over their opium stock with the promise of eventual compensation for their loss from the British government. While this amounted to a tacit acknowledgment that the British government did not disapprove of the trade, it also placed a huge liability on the exchequer. This promise and the inability of the British government to pay it without causing a political storm was an important casus belli for the subsequent British offensive.

Answer:
Hamilton thought it was too unnecessary. Many of the land/territory may not be used because of how vast it was. Also, Jefferson was sort of a hypocrite. He had a strict view of the constitution and believed that the president didn't have any powers that weren't implied in the Constitution. Buying foreign land wasn't in the Constitution, yet Jefferson still tried to make the Louisiana Purchase by buying it from France. Also, the Louisiana Purchase may seem unconstitutional and there would be too much land to govern.
