 The gift of heaven through their sufferings and their achievements-but not without

 charge of correspondent duty incumbent up-

 And what, my friends and fellow citizens, what is that duty of our own? Is it to remon- strate to the adder's ear of king beyond the Atlantic wave, and claim from him the resto- ration of violated rights? No. Is it to sever the ties of kindred and of blood, with the peo- pie from whom we sprang? To cast away the precious name of Britons and be no more the counsrymen of Shakespeare and Milton- of Newton and Locke--of Chatham and Burke? Or more and worse, is it to meet their countrymen in the deadly conflict of seven years war 2? No. Is it the last and greatest of duties fulfilled by them! Is it to lay the foundations of the fairest Government and the mightiest nation that ever floated on the tide of time No! These awful and sol-l emn duties were allotted to them and by them they were faithfully performed. What then is our dutye .ts..l .Ass'tds~yh

 Is it not to preserve, to cherish, to snspyoue5 the inheritance which they have left us won by their toils--Watered by their tears-sad- dened, but fertilized by their blood! Are we, the sons of worthy sires, and in the onward march of time have they achieved in the ca reer of human improvement so much, only that our posterity and theirs may blush for the contrast between their unexampled ener- gies and our nerveless impotence? between their more than Herculean laborsi and our indolent repose? No, my fellow citizens far be it from us far be i. from you, for he

 who now addresses you has but a few short days before he shall be called to join the. multitude of ages past-far be from you the reproach or suspicion of such a degrading contrast. You too have the solemn duty to perform, of improving the condition of your species, by improving your own. Not in the great and strong wind of a revolution, which rent the mountains and brake in pieces the rocks before the Lord for the Lord is not in the wind-nat in the earthquake off revolu- tionary war, marching to the onset between the battle field and the scaffold- for the Lord is not in the earthquake in the fire of civil dissention-in war between the meIn- bers and the head-irl notification of the laws of the Union for the forcible resistance of one refractory State--for the Lord is not in the fire and tlt0t fire was never kindled by our fathers! No! it is in the still small yeice that succeeded the whirlwind, the earth quake and the fire. The voice that stills the raging of the waves and the tunults of the Ipeople-that spoke the word of peace-of tharmony-of union. And for that voice, may you and your children's children |" to the last syllable of recorded time," fix your eyes up- on the memory, and listen with your ears to the life of JAMES MADISON.
