People around the time of 1787 opposed a strong National Government because of the fact that they were scared of a government that was similar to the Parliament of Britain. Finally receiving their independence from the Parliament of Britain, people in the United States wanted to prevent a government from forming that was similar to the British Parliament. this sucks
William Richardson Davie supported the powers of National Government and wanted the Constitution to be ratified.
Basically it was a compromise between the larger states that wanted congressional representation to be based on population, and the smaller states that wanted congressional representation to be equal among the states irrespective of population. The compromise resulted in our current form of government with the members of the House of Representatives being apportioned according to population and the members of the Senate being apportioned at two per state.
If by "government" you mean "federal government" then they wanted the Congress to have the most power because it gave more power to states through direct representation. If by "government" you mean "any government in the United States", then they wanted the states to have more power, similarly to the Articles of Confederation, the States' rights movements of the 1800s, and later the Confederate States of America

The Articles of Confederation was a weak government. Shays Rebellion demonstrated this fact when government authorities could not decide whether the state or the national government should put down the revolt. Larger states wanted to do away with the Articles of Confederation because they thought the central government needed to be stronger while smaller states wanted to keep the Articles of Confederation because they were afraid of having a strong central government.
Positive consiquences of limited national government meant that states could not do what they wanted. Negative meant no united goals.
