Gentlemen ofMc Scnote,


ind ofhe House Of Representatives:


IN closing my exercise OF the supreme exccu-
tive powers ofthe State, ! do not perceive the
necessity of recommending to your consider
alton any measures which have not been
submitted to you by myself or by my prede
cessors, or which the General Assembly has
not already had under its notice. This !
consider as a strong proof of the happy con-
diton OF our fellow citizens. We are in
more danger of suffering by innovations, than
from deficiency OF legislation. Our State
Constitution and the Constitution of the l.. I
States are sufficient to insure US all our rights 7
and privileges as people, and, as long as
they can be preserved to secure to ourselves
and 10 hand down to postcrity the bless |
ings Of liberty in all the purity of republic /
| cansm But the continued attempts made
to produce alterations in our primary insti-
tntions throughout the Union, fearfuly tore
bode, that the love of country, is becoming
a weak principle of action, and that selfish
ness SO powerfully enters into all the motives


lor seen novelties, that tic noble structure


which has been erected ''to form a more


perfect union, establish justice, ensure do


mcstc tranquility, provide for the common
defence, promote the general welfare, and
,ecnrc~ the blessings OF 'i]erty to ourselves


Nd our pos.crity," will be overwhelmed in
destruction, and that from lis ruins, will a


rS" liscord, the f0rrrunncr of slavery and


tyranny. Evils of this kind should be re-
sisted in their Origin, aud emphatcalv so


~ MS; for of all the States in the Union,


to none other j, it so prc-emnentlv import


ant that the General Government shonld be


preserved entire aad unimpaitcd Should
the Constitution of the United States be 50


patched aud altered that the warm attach


mtltEtw tttfor it BY the psop'e should
grow cold or even luEewarn, SO tina, il
Snail be injured by every uahcnlly at


tack, to what ark shall we iy for our tenn


poral safety and happnesss MY apprchen-


.ions are such that would not, had the
power, permit single Pin to he removed


from this sacred temple of liberty nor
would suffer any trappnEs 70 be added un-
der the prctcnce Of cmhelisiment or i'm
provumCnt, aud earnestly recommend to
Won, gentlemen, not to listen with favor to


any propositions Of the kind.


Another subject, often repeated, but still


not thc less Important, j., 81 sorcbly impress


ed on ny mind that Win not out this last


opportunity Of urging it upon your consid


Grafton. ! refer Ia education, ,-not to the


mere acquisition of the arts Of reading aud
e,
and of foreign and dead langnagcs--but to
the formation Ht the manners and minds OF


youth and to the observance of moral du-


ties. The discipline Of the mind, the re-


s,tauce and correction OF the evil propens


itics Of our nature, the restraining and Keep


ingiwithin boulids our unlawful appetites; the


cultivation OF bcncvolcucc 70 man and love t.
: oar Creator, should be the first and constant
h lesson taught to youth rs well to promote


their own individual happiness as to endear


to them their country, and make them in-


corruptibic patriots. SO powerful was the
. effect of education among the I.accdemoui-
c ans, that, although beaten in battle, they
=, could not be conquered until their mannc,
of educating their children WAS changed
Education must depend upc~ the public insti
Q tutions, and such as aft CT parents; and as soot
&c soon as they set the example and instil int
4 the children proper principles, the chiidrei
;, will become good and virtnous citizens, ant


their ruling passion viii he the love OF thei
e country. The learning to he gained in schools
IL is a secondary ubcct--usciul in proportion t
i the subjcction of the passions, and calcnlat
ed to einbelish the virtues of a well regu
lated mind, or to enlarge and stimulate th'
! deptavity Of a corrupt heart.
