eminent, as well as the other authorities
of our country within their appropriate or
bits. This is a matter of difficulty in some
cases, as the powers which they respec
lively claim are often not defined by very
distinct lines. Mischevious, however,
their tendencies, as collisions of this kind
may be those which arise between the re
spective communities, which for certain
purposes compose one nation, are much
more so; for no such nation can long exist ]
without the careful culture of these feel
lings of confidence and affection uhich
are the effective bonds of union between
free and confederate States. Strong as is
the be of interest, it has been found inef
fectual. Men, blinded by their passions
have been known to adopt measures for
their country in direct opposition to all
the suggestions of policy. The alterna
live then, is, to destroy or keep down a
bad passion by creating and fostering a
good one; and this appeals to be the corner
stone upon which our American political
architects have reared the fabric of oar
Government. The cement which was to
bind it, and perpetuate its existence, was
the affectionate attachment between all its
members.
To insure the continuance of this feel,
ing, produced at first by a community oft
dangers, of sufferings and of interests,
the advantaaes of each were made accessi
We to all. 'No participation in any good,
possessed by any member of an extensive
confederacy, except in domestic govern
went, was withheld from the citizen of
any other member. By a process atten
ded with now difficulty, no delay, no ex
pease but that of removal, the citizen of
one might become the citizen of any nth
et., and successively of the whole. The,
lines, too, separating powers to be exerm
bed by the citizens of one State from
those of another seems to be so distinct
ly drawn, as to leave no room for lids
understanding. The citizens of each
State unite in their persons all the pri
vileges which that character confers,
and all that they may claim as citizens
of the United States; but in no case can
the same person at the same time, act
as the citizens of two separate States,
and he is therefore positively preluded
from any interference with the reserved
powers of any &tate but that of which he 18
for the lime being, a citizen. He may
indeed offer to the citizen of other States,
his advice as to their management, and
the form in which it is tendered is left
to his own discretion and sense of pro
priety.
I t may be observed, however, that organ
ised asso datums of citizens, requiring
compliance with their wishes too much
resemble the recemmendation a of Athens
to her allies—supported by an armed and
vowel fleet. It was indeed, to the am
bition of the leading State of Greece to
control the domestic concerns of the oth-,
ers, that the destruction of that celebra.!
ted confederacy, and subsequently of all
its members is mainly to be attributed.—
And it is owing to the absence of that
spirit that the Ile' vetic confederacy has
for so many years been preserved. Nev
er has there been seen in the institutions
of the separate members of any confede
racy more elements of discord. In the
principles and forms of government and I
religion, as well as in the circumstances!
of the several cantons, so marked a dis
crepance was observable as to promise any!
thing but harmony in their intercourse or
permanency in their alliance. And yet,'
for ages, neither has been interrupted.—
Content with the positive benefits which
their u mon produced, with the independ-1
since anal safety from foreign aggression )
which it secured, these siigacious people ,
respected the institutions of each other
however repugnant to their own princi
ples and prejudices.
Our Confederacy, fellow citizens, carr
only be preserved by the same forbearance.
Our citizens must be content with the ex•
excise of the powers with which the Cons
stitution clothes them. The attempt of
those of one State to control the domestic
institutions of another, can only result in
feelings of distrust and jealousy, the cer
tam harbinger; of disunion, violence, civil
war, and the ultimate destruction of ow .
free institutions. tier Confederacy is
Perfectly illustrated by the terms and prin
giplei governing a corn mot, copartnership.
- There a fund of power is to lie exercised
.under the direction of the joint councils of
the allied members, but that which has re
served by the individual members is intang
ible t.y the common government or the indi
vidual members composing it. "I o attempt
it, finds no support in the principles;ot our
Coustaution• it should be our constant and
earnest endeavor mutually to cultivate a
spirit of concord and harmooy among the
various parts of our Confederacy. Expe'
rieace has abundantly taught us that the agi
tate, by citizens of one part of the Union
ofa subject not confided to the General
Government, but exclusively under the
guardianship of the local authorities, is pro
ductive of no °the! consequences than bit
terness, alienation, discord, and injury to
the very cause which is intended to be ad
vanced. Of all the grent interests which
appertain to our country, that of union, cor
„that, ,fiding, fraternal union, is by far the
most imporiant, since it is the only true and
,sure guaraitty of all others.
In consequence of the embarrassed state
of. business and the currency, some of tne

the enterprize and activity of cur people
proverbial ; an:. we may well hope that we
legislation and prudent administration,
respective Governments, each acting width,
its own sphere, will restore former prosper
'ity.
Unpleasant and even dangerous as coin-
Mons may sometimes be, between the consti
tuted authorities or the citizens of our coun
try, in relation to the lines which seperate
their respective jurisdictions, the result can
be of no vital injury to our institutions, if
that ardent patriotism, that devoted attach
' ment to liberty, that spirit of moderatior
,and forbearance for which our countrymen
were once distinguished, continue to be cite
visited. if this continues to be the ruling
passion of our souls, the weaker feelings of
the mistaken enthusiast will he corrected,
the Eutopian dreams of the ',heisting politi
cian dissipated,and the complicated intrigues
of the demagogue rendered harmless. The
spirit of liberty is the sovereign balm for ev
ery injury which our irstitutions may receive.
On the controry, no care that can be used in
the construction of our Government ; no di
vision of powers, no distribution of checks
in its several departments, will prove eff,c
-t tinily to keep us a free People, if this spirit
is suffered to decay ; and decay it will Nith
out constant nurture. To the neglect of this
duty, the best historians agree in attributing
the rain of all the Republics with whose ex
istence and fall their writings have made us
acquainted. Tl'e same causes will ever pro
duce the same effects ; and as long as the
love of power is a dominant passion of the
human bosom, and as long as the understand
' ings of men can be warped and their affec
tions changed by operations upon their pas
sions and prejudices, so long will the liberty
of a people depend on their own constant at
tention to its preservation.
The danger to all well-established and
tree governmen .4 arises from the unwilling
ness of the per'ple to believe in its existence,
or from the influence of designing men, di
verting their attention from the quarter
whence it approaches, to a source from
which it can never come. This is the old
trick of those who would usurp the govern
ment of their country. In the name of the
Democracy they speak, warning the people
against the influence of wealth and the don-,
gee of aristocracy. History, ancient and
modern, is full of such examples. Cmsar
became the master of the Roman people'
and the Senate under the
. pretence of sup
porting the democratic claims of the former
against the aristocracy of the latter ; Crom
well, in the character of protector of the
liberties of the People, became the dictator
! of England ;
and Bolivar possessed himself
of unlimited power, with the tide of his
country's Liberator. There is, on the con
trary, no sin!tle instance on record of an ex
ternove and well-established republic being
changed into an al istocracy. The tendenci:s
of all such Governments in their decline is
to monarchy ; and the antagonist principle
to liberty is the spirit of faction—a spirit
which assumes the character, and, in times
of great excitement, imposes itself upon the
' People as the genuine spirit of freeeom, and
like the false Christ' whose coming was
foretold by tht Saviour, seeks to, and were
it possible would, impose upon the true and
most faithful deciplrs of liberty.
It is in periods like this that ft behoves the
People to be most watchful of those to whom
they have entrusted power. And although
there is at times much difficulty in distin
guishing the false from the true spirit, a
calm and etspassionate investigation, will
detect the counterfeit as well by the char
acter of its operations, as the results that
are produced. The true spirit of liberty,,
although devoted, persevering, bold and un-,
compromising in principle, that secured, is
mild and tolerant, and scrupelous as to the '
means it employs; whilst the spiritof party,
assuming to be that of liberty, is harsh, vin-,
dictive and intolerant, and totally reckless as'
'to the character of the Ellies a •.ich it brings
to the aid of its cause. Vi hen the genuine
spirit of liberty animates the body of a peo
ple to a thorough examination of their affairs
it leads to the excision of every excrescence
which may have fastend itself upon any of
the Departments of the Government, rod
restores the system to its pristine health and
beauty. But the reign of an intolerant spirit
of party amongst a free people, seldom
fails to result to a danger-_ us accession to the
Executive power introduced and established
amidst unusual professions of devotion to de
mocracy .
....
he foregoing remarks relate almost ex.
elusively to matters connected with our do•
inestic concerns. It tn. yhe proper, how•
ever, that I should give some indications to
my fellow-citizens of my propcsed course
of conduct in, the management of out for
eign relations. I assure them therefore, that
it is my intention to use every means in my
power to preserve the friendly intercourse
which now so happily subsists betwean ev
ery foreign nation and that, although, of
course, not well informed as to the state of
any pending negociations with any of them,
I see in the personal character of the Sov •
ereigns, as well as in the mutual interests
of uur own and of the governments with
which our relations are intimate, a pleasing,
guatality that the harmony so important to I
the interest of their subjects, as well as our
citizens, will not be interrupted by the ad
vancement of any claim, or pretension upon
their partato which our honor will not per
mit us to yield. Long the defender of my
country's rights In the field, I trust that my
fellow-citizens will not see in my earnest de
sire to preserve peace with foreign powers
any indications that their rights will ever be
sacrificed, or the honor of the nation tar
, nished_dy any admission on the part of their
'Chief Magistrate unworthy of their former
glory.
In our intercourse with our Aboriginal
neighbors, ti.e same lioerality and justice
which marked the course prescribed to me
by two of my illustrious predecessors, when
acting under their direction in the discharge
of the duties of Superintendent and Com
missioner, shall be strictly observed. I can
conceive of no more sublime spectacle—
none more likely to propitiate an impartial
Creator than a rigid “dherance to the prin
ciples of justice on the part of a powerful
nation in its transactions with a weaker and
uncivilized people whom circumstances has
placed at its disposal.
Before concluding, fellow-citizens, I must
say something to you on the subject of the
parties at this time existing in our country.
I'o me it appears perfectly clear, that the
interest of he coutry re quires that the vio
lence of the spirit by which those parties at e
at present governed, must be greatly miti
gated, if not entirely extinguished, or conse
quences will ensue which are appaling to be
thought of. If parties in a Republic, are ne
cessary to secure a degree of vigilnce suffi
cient to keep the public functionaries within
the bounds of lew and duty, at that point
their usefulness ends. Beyond that, they
I become destructive of public virtue, the
parents of a spirit antagonist to that of lib
erty, an eventually, its inevitable conqueror,
We have examples of Republics where ,
the love of country mid of liberty, at one ,
Lime, were the dominant passions of the
whole mass of citizens. And yet, with the
continuance cf the name and forms of free
govt rnment, not a vestage of these qualities
remaining in the bosom of any of its citizens.,
It was the beautiful r. mark of a distinguish
ed English writer, that "in the Roman Sen
ate Octal/lons had a party, and Anthony a
party, but , the Commonwealth had none."
Yet the Senate continued to meet in the
l'emple of Liberty, to talk of the sacred
ness and beauty of the Commonwealth, and!
gaze at the statues of the elder Brutes and I
of the Curtii and the Decii. And the peo- Common Schools.

davia; and so, under the operation of the
same causes and influences,,it will fly from
our capitol and our forums. A calamity so
awful, not only to cur country, but to the
world. must be depricated by every patriot;
and every tendency to a state of things like
ly to product it immediately checked. Such
a tendency has existed—does exist. Al
ways the friend of my countrymen, never
their flatterer, it becomes my duty to say to
them from this high place to which their
partiality has exalted me, that there exists in
the land a spirit hostile to their best Interests:
hostile to liberty itself. It is a spirit con
tracted iu its views selfish in its object. It
looks to the agrandizement of a few, even to
the destruction of the interest of the whole.
The entire remedy is with the people.—
Something, however, may be tflected by the
means which they have placed in my hands.
It is union that we want, not of a party for
the sake of that party, but a union of the
whole country for the sake of the whole
country—for the defence of its interests and
its honor against foreign aggression, for the
defence of those principles for which our an
cestors so gloriously contended. As fat as
It depends upon me it shall be accomplish
ed. All the influence that I possess shall be
exerted to prevent the formation at least of
an Executive party in the halls of the legis
lative bo ly. I wish for the support of no
member of that body to any measure of mine
that does not satisfy his judgement and his
sense of duty to those from whom he bolds
his appointment; nor any confidence in ad
vance ;tom the people, but that asked for
by Mr. Jefferson "to give firmness and ef-,
feet to the legal administration of their
affairs,
I deem the present occasion sufficiently
important mid solemn to justify me in ex
pressing to my fellow-citizens a profound
reverancp for the Christian religion, and a
thorough conviction that sound morals, relig
ious liberty, and a just sense of religions re
sponsibility, are essentially connected with
all true and lasting happiness; and to that
good Being who has blessed us by the gifts
of civil and religious freedom. who watch
ed over and prospered the labors of our
fathers, and has hitherto preset., ed to us
institutions far exceeding in excellence'
those of any other people, let us unite in
fervently commending every interest of our'
beloved country i all future time.
Fellow-citizens: being fully invested with
that high office, to which the partiality of
my country-men has called me, I now ...lite
an affectionate leave of you. You will
bear with you to your homes the remem
brance of the pledge I have this day given
to discharge all the high duties of my ex
alted station according to the best of my
ability; and I shall enter upon their per
