THE INA.O i UK4T4ON. Flom the Harrisburg Reporter, Jan. 15. This day et 19 o'clock according to a rr ecae - Monts, Gov. PORTER wOs inaugurated, in the presence of both Houses, and an tit tomise concourse of citizens. After taking the urinal the of °See. Gm. Poe 'MA delivered the follow; INAUGU RA ADDRESS. Deeply impressed with serum of gratitsde to my t oi ow ci tiz e ns for the distinguished mark of conh dente reposedM nie, 1 enker upon the arduous and responsible duties of Oovernor.ofPennsylvania, with a full determination, acconhog to the abilities given me, to do my duty faithfdlly. A co mpliance with custom would seem to require d in e, when assuming wet dirties of the Psecutive, ii,'persoaors of the choute of the people, to lay be. fore them some of the leading principles upon which the administration of the gOvernment will be conduct ed. I do this the mote wplingly because, in a re. public, the intercourse beren the people-and their public functionaries ghou l be candid, frank and on werved. . Educated with the highest veneration and great est affection for the men and principles of the A merican Revolution, it will always give me pleasure to refer to the one .as examples,'and to the other as guides, in the performance of duty. Admitting to its fullest extent, the importance of preserving, un sullied, the inestimable and unalienable right of the people to govern theineelnes, I shall ever give my best efforts to prevent encroachment upon that right. SO long as Man coatir,ues the being he is, error must be expected both in his individual and eollec. tire conduct. He may be'expected to err upon sud den impulses, but an intelligent community will rarely fall deliberately hile error. Hence the delib crate expression of the pciiples' will should always furnish the rule of conduct to those Alm represent them in :public stations. A new era has arrived M our Commonwealth,— Oar first Constitution, formed amidst the stortnaand troubles of the' revolutionary, conflict, was found in practice not to answer the expectations under which It was framed. In fourteen years thereafter it was entirely new modelled by:the Constitution of 1790; an instrument framed by wren of great talents and e minent:worth, but the plan of government way al ways considered, 'by no &Mall portion of the people as not sufficiently deinciesktic in its details. After repeated attempts to procure revision, a majority of par citizens who voted on the question, in 1835 de cided that a Convention should be called to revise, alter and spend the Constitution of the Common wealth. In pursuance of this determination of the - people, a 'Convention assemhled,and after a long and arduous session, closed their labors on the twenty se i-ond of February last, and the amendments agreed upon by that body have beqn ratified and adopted by the people; • and it is under this amended Constitu tion that it has been my '-lot to be called upon to ad minister the duties of theSixecutive. This instru ment gives to popular su rage the decision of ma ny appointments heretoforc, vested in the Executives and changes the duration of the judicial tenure from that of good behaviour to a', term of years. It short. ens the period of eligibility; to the t xecutive chair, end reduces the Senatortal term; enlarges the right of sutfra.ge, and changes • other provisions, all of which are important in the conchict of the go,vern inent of the Stieft Approving as I did of tile a mendments in the aggregate, and having sanction ed them by my vote at the late election, it wilt ford me great pleasure to assist in carrying then} Out in practice, by a strict ac:herence to their prin. Ciples. It is a beautiful exemplification of the capacity of the people for self government to ' see them, from time to time, as exigencies may require, coaling to gether, through their representatives, and quietly, yet intelhgently and dispassionately, examining the fundamental law of the land; aacertaming where it has not answered its intended purposes, and cor recting evils not foreseen at the time of its adoption. The adoption of constitutions was a wise regale ant to prevent the abuse of power, to limit acd re strain ice exercise by public servants; to protect the weak against the strung, arid to preserve the liber. ties of the country from en in their/se:lves admissions nature—of the tendencly o the necessity of protecting conduct of their functions ~ weakness or wiekedneas. to needless chlinge rt is Rio quest alterations of this fu provision adopted for rotor be resorted to, when experi Existed that . such change ii good. Constant ur cur tin ate distrust in the mobilo, its institutions: an evil gr.. tending to lon* the bone of mutual confidence which bind a republic to l ether. It will give me great pleasure to co-operar w,th thelcpresentatives of the people in enacting al such laws as the iwien ded constitution has render d necessary : and to give that full, fair and candid t al of the instrument in practiCe, which patriotism, now requires from all, when the people have deciied on its acceptance.— Whatever differences of op n opinion existed before its adoption should now c.sse. It is the supreme law of the land, and it is 4e duty of every branch of the government, and evary good citizen, so to te trad and respect it. - A strict a batty i t all 'public agents tends to prevent wrong the blic from negligence or misconduct. Lasts and rodigsl expenditures tie cool) easearily induce extravaga ce and luxury; these en. dermine, and destroy the..h bits of industry and /re-.' gality of our citizens, arid hereby take away one of the principal supports of pular government.' The i i luxary,fcxtravagance and ppendagea of royalty are !insulted to the habits, as ey are to the well being Of a free people. Econo' . y in the various depart ments of the governments not only required at all times in a republic, but s peculiarly called for at' l this time, when such is I a magnitude of our State debt, that mare than the Whole nett revenue is re. quired to discharge its interest. This debt, it to true, has been incurred in the prosecution of schemes of internal improvement unparalfelled in other days and States, which have Leaden to increase our trade and develope our re sources, and it may perhaps be fairly assumed that they have increased the value of' *treat within the commonwealth to the amount off their cost. 114tich . of the funds of the State (have, however, been ex pended on works of secondary Importance, and to some instancesof double public utility, which re ceived appr* lions from a course of legislation in which a as given lo . thern to secure favour for i f greater and ore public inprovements—a system of legislation universally ' donned to be wrong in i,, principle, and which oug t never to he adopted. I respectfully solicit the .eo-bperation of all who have the welfare of their country at heart, in put ting an end to this course of legislation. I have ever been the .friend and advocate of a ju. dicious and liberal system kir public improvements, essentially neecsaaiy, as I Always believed it, to the great agricultural, manufahturing and commercial interests of the c om monwealth—interests intimate ly connected with, and ntotually dependant upon, each other. Bet this system may be pushed be. yond the means and resources of the common. wealth. Such a coursemeld he avoided. We t have now in progress of nstruction, portions of the main lines of our cane. ii, which ate, yet incom plete, and which are necess ry to finish the chains 'of intercomtnumeation wi in our cuMmonwealth. Their situation exhibits . o e portion of some of the i h -lines completed and riow'n a state of dilapidation and decay, while other po ions of the same. line are yet unfinished. The alte native then presented is, ri l shall these uncompleted mien lines be ahandoned v i or shill every possible enerFy of the commonwealth bp put in requisition for their completion? Unwil- ILbg as lam needlessly to nc.rea4i the State debt, the soundest dictates of p/blic policy and justice require the adoption of the atter course, as the only mode of making available tie large amounts alrea dy expended upon them. „The resources of cape talities of the regions thropkh which they pass will be thereby developed. Astatine/ of trade to and from the seaboard stllbe opened. New markets for agricultural and mineral , prbducts will be furnished, and the revenu e of the works already completed and in operation greatly Omit . When these lines l ed shall have been completed, rodence would seem to require that we should pau4e, and at least for a Ma bbushel:ld our means aufl decrease the public li aities. I Shall, as soon as cony ienth may be, cause to Le laid before you a full an candid statermint of the debts due by the common lth. These debts, let it be stead) y borne in .d, have been incurred undo,* the authority of la tad, aft 4E' .4.. itt ate Iles, shell be sacredly in othlned st all hszzards. tt will be ourduty, while e shill profess their . • ' . . . - - ' I= unnecessary increase, to provide,t • e Means of - log the lawfu l engagements of the -'m • • 'wealth. In effecting these desirable r , . look with great confidence to the co-oper..= of the repre sentatives Of the people in • t , branches of the . legislature. The truth cannot by : concealed .that; the funds of the commonwealth ' i , Are o:1 an vinbil passed awe, and that a Along, Ond • vigorous and well directed effort is requirod.td extricate them therefrom By the provisions of the anteiided constitution, notice is required to be given of all iotendiad ap plications for the grant or reneatal of charters to honking institutions. This provision will prevent legislative action in relation to them at the•pres- ent session, and;readers say eXpositiou of my views on this delicate and artitititng subject un necessary at this bale. •I shall ;take occasion in s future commtwiestion to express them very de finitely., and need only now say, ithst the hooking capital of the• commonwealth has):reen increased of late years heyood what I "belitive to have been neeessare.--flaviort formed thta opinion deltber• ately, I shall not be disposed to change it for light reason. There is in my l Sudgment a ittanifest impropri ety In entangling connections between the govern. tnent and the banking or trading institution of the country, and I shell at all tames be ready to co-operate in any measure whichi shall so seperate the government from banking -Institutions. as to leave each to the pursuit ace egrreise of their le- Ottniate end', :without interferihg with those of the othet. 'The creation /of corporations, where necessary to accomplish purposes beyond the raach of individual enterprise, has no doubt done much to advance the citizens, geoeratiy, are moderate, "a they are tike to be in a young and growing country, and where the concentration of the capitals:Wm/41y is necessary to do what, in older countries, trugt4 be accomplished by individuals of greater wealth: As our country becomes older and our wealth increases, the reasons for multiplying these corporationi are to some ex- tent removed. Although the? May be resorted to with propriety where a baol ute y nOcesavv, their uo- due creation -alei increase should be discouraged: Corporations ought never to he created, where the object to be accomplished is sviihin the probable reach of individual exertion. They absolve men from individual liability and may tend, 'hy undue combinations and concentrated tuition, to embarrass the operations of government, and interfere with the popular anvereignty. The position which our CommOnweelth occupies, as a member of the Union, shoud never be lost sight o:. Fur whilst, as to all the purposes not delegated to the General Government she is an independent sovereignty, yet as to all granted to the confedera• tion or union, she must exercise , her authorities in sutrdination to the General Government, evincing a proper regard for; and -subordination to. that Gov ernment in? 1111 things properly pertaining to it. 'f he governlnent of the State should ever exercise a carefirl vigilance for the preservation of their own rights, that the objects of the Codlederation may be fiirly affected, and the harmony ilia system of Gov ernment, without parallel to ancient or modern times, be preserved in Shits bebuty and symmetry. It is not sufficient that therO should he a cold compliance in terms with tbe letter of our constnu tion—there should- be a proper-ra tiona l feeling of brotherhood kept up. We phottf exhibit in all fur conduct, that we are members ut a great and power. ful union of free States, who have made certain terms and conditions by way ointutual conception and compromise, in order to ptiontote the ge n er a l god of the whole. The old article of confedera tion, as well as the present constitution of the United States, were the result of these feelings and these comeesslons and compromises. A due reeled to that good faith which should ever eharattiertzu the conduct of republican Stales, wuptd seem to require that a contract or compact of union, thus fauntd. should be kept, not only inviolate in terms, but in spirit also. %Viten the in rant Stets?' of the Union united togeth er in the revolution for thi common defeece, under the feeble bonds of the old confederation ; and Wla' necessity drove us to form something more definite and binning, which brought about the comeittitton of I7Sts, involuntary servitude was the subject of much discussion, arrangement and concession. It was finally 4:posed of in the manner pointed our in the latter instrument. To agitate the question a new, when it was thus satistactorly settled, is not only unwise and impolitic, but to a virtual breach of good faith to our brethren of the South. an unwar rantable interference with their domestic relattons and institutions, and is calculated to do postire inju• ry to the Africao race there hold in servitude, for whom, in her policy and within her !mil border. Pennsylvania has always' shown a becoming °PT, parity. L"n never. in the Anisl stuti al which I occupy, consent to countenances course which may jenpare the peace and harmony of .the Union, with out answering .any good purpose in the end. It shall meet with no encouragement at any hands. Let Pennsylvaniakeep clear of all entangling al hances, and she. has no political. consequences to dread nor collisions to encounter;-and our experi meet of the Union of the States, will be found to work as harmoniously in practiee as it is beautiful ha theory. - Flee people - are chef ieterixed by strong practical common sense.and useful intelligence.

A strict - construction of he • Constitittion or tile United States; a reluctaned to yield tette General Governmentany powers, ex-' cent those expressly granted, orwhich follow by di rect and necessary tinpneation from those so grant ed; a rigid system of economy ,in public expendi tures; the defination -and limitation by law , as far as practicable, 'of the, duties of nubile furietionarieb i and -a strict system of accountability in all publle servants, are doctrines, in support of which she has I ever - raised her voice. belieriq these to be correct views, it will °Tined me pleasure, so far as the sub ject shalrfadl within the province of the Executere i to.givi them efFeri; find that pleasure will be enhan ced in finding that I am therein co-operating with , and sustaining the administration of the General Government, in the able and efficient hands 'in which it is now placed.
