From the feaiures of the minus reports

ance cause is still onward, but not progress

characterized hs movements; & would sug
gest that more vigilanco & energy are neces

causes may have tended to retard its pro

effort: A suggestion has been mado by
some of the societies thai the number of un
authorized Temperance lectures, who travel
iho eonnty, takings collections, pedding

I appear before you in obedience Iplhe

the Consiitutionj andto enter updn the
nfilco of Governor.
When 1 contemplate the intciesln ol
our Commonwealth, ns an independent
sovereignly, and i a member of the
community of American dales, ihe mill
ttphed relations over .which it cxeris a
supei vising giiaidlanship, and the pecu
liarly weighty obligaiioiu that pres.
upon it at the pi.ccnl moment,! feel how
impel fectly I am qualified (o discharge,
and even lo compi iihend ai ight,lho ar
duous and complicated duties to which
I have beon called, lo Him who
watches over tho destinies of Stales a.
well as men, and whose favor is light
and slieigih, I look upwards with hum
ble trust, that- llu will over-rule any
errors and give efficiency to my houcsi
elfoils for the public good.
II-ippily the principles which should
regulao Ihu adminslialion of the State
have been long since deularod and estab
lished by our republican falhers. They
are few and clear. That equal and ex
act justice should be administered to men
of all parlies in politics, and of all per
suasions in religion thai our public
taith should be kept sacred under all cii
cumstances thai freedom of religion
of suffrage, and of the press, should be
held inviolate that genenl education
is essential to the preservation of liber
ty thai the sepcrato rights and poweis
of ihe executive, legislative and judi
cial departments ol tho government
should he strictly maini lined that the
government should be faiihlullv, bu
frugally administered, and to whom i
is enti usteil held lo frequent and slrict
accountability thai particular mischiel
should be corrected by general rather
lhan special laws that tho grant of ex
elusive privileg'sto s jine is repugnant
to our whole system the intent o. which
is to make fit m the equal rights of all
that men associated fur gain should, in'
common with others, be liable indlvidti
ally for all their joint engagement
inu that Ihe obedience ol ihe public
igent to the will of his constituents is
essential lo a right administration of the
government, and to tiic preservation of
reedo h.
Phese are the leading principles by
