The possession, by the citizen, of any right, ne
- eessarily imposesmpon him a corresponding they.
And in proportion as that right is valuable, impor
' taut, and dignified, so is the resulting duty oblige
' fory, imperative, and solemn. Of all the rights,
the full investiture of which constitutes the happi- 1
gess and glory of the citizens of these United
States, there is no one which, in valife, in Mtor.
lance, and in dignity, can be compared with they
„Elective Franchise, It is pre-eminently TUE unit
of the.citizen! Without it, all others would be
empty, unsubstantial, vain. As a necessary and
inevitable consequence, therefore, the duty of riser-'
,
tieing that right is, immeasurably, the 'most obliga
limy, imperative, and solemn, of all others.
-• Every law, whether it' be akw of Nature, a law
of Nations, or a Municipal law. haS its appropriate
sanction. If Nature's law be Violated, she never

MCII4 'or is - visited by the ravages of .var. 'lf an
individual breaks a law of the country in which
he resides, he paye the penalty, even though it
1 . should.extend to life itself, denounced against his
offence. So,in the very fitness of things, -accord
fag to 'every analogy drawn from the natural, the
moral,, the social, and the political world—accord
fog to the.voiceof universal history, and the c.d.
Monitions of all experience,—the refusai or neglect
to perform the duty imposed by the pOssession of,
the right of t ‘ tie elective franchise, will' ultimately
be visited with a forfeiture of the right; itself. So
much as to the obligation incumbent oe every citi
zen
to exercise his elective franchise.
The next consideration, which presents itself so I
- naturally and necessarily, that it would be aI
: - tion not only -of logic but of propriety, to omit
taking it up in this connection, is the mariner in
which the right should be exercised, or, in other,
words, the duty performed.
It is obvious to the most superficial observer, it
- is cleax to the most unreflecting mind, that the
mere act of depositing a vote in the ballot box, on
the day of the election, is but a very imi - terfect ex=
• ' • creiee of the right, a very defective perforniance of
the duty, given and imposed by the elective fran
chise. 'lndeed, in some cases, nay, in most in
stances, such a casual compliance with the form,
involves an actual violation of the substance, the
principle, and the spirit of the right and the duty.
All of manhood is not the forim_ all of virtue is not
the name; all of religion is not the possession of it;
B'3, aid'. the elector's duty is not the easting of his
lallotAinto the box provided for its reception.
%et would be thought of the soldier who would
isktdk from honorable danger on the field of battle?
1
He is a coward! What opinion would be enter-1
tained of the ostentatious lecturer on morality,
1
temperance and virtue, who would secretly cheat
or gluttertize, or betray confidence reposed? He
is a villain! What estimate would be formed of
the canting professor of religion, who, to establish
himself in business, or to secure a standing in
community, would regularly occupy his pew in
the Hoese of God, and obtain an eldership - Ain the
Church, yet live, privately, in constant and con
. temptuous violation of all the sacred mandates re
vealed in the inspired 'Volume? He is a rank, base,
impious hypocrite! And what should be thought
of the citizen of this.” free country," this land " con

the blood of patriots." this "home of the free," this
"asylum of the exile," the "glorious hope of uni

tonnage will not fall shoit of 100,000 tons, and
which have coat in their construction and equip
