Hamilton was trying to downplay the Anti-Federalists fears of a too-powerful Supreme Court. The main points are that the Judicial Branch would be the least powerful branch because it has no powers over the budget and policy, nor any enforcement powers--those being delegated to the Legislature and Executive respectively. Additionally, that a judiciary with life terms is necessary for the independence of that branch from the others. And lastly, though it is not in the Constitution, he spells out the assumption that the Court would have the power of Judicial Review--the only protection for maintaining a limiting Constitution is the ability to nullify the actions of the other branches when they exceed their mandates.

What anti-federalist paper applies to federalist paper 50?

Federalist Paper No. 50, written by James Madison, discusses the need for checks and balances within the government, particularly regarding the power of the legislature. An anti-Federalist paper that relates to this is Brutus No. 1, which argues against the concentration of power in a strong central government and expresses concerns about the potential for tyranny. Both papers highlight the importance of safeguarding individual liberties, but they approach the issue from opposing perspectives: Federalist advocating for a strong federal structure, and Anti-Federalist cautioning against it.
