Union, jtistice, tratiquility, the common defence, the general welfare,a’nd the blessings of liberty,—all have been protnoted by the gov’t tititier which we have lived. Stalidllngllt this point of time ; looking back to that generation which has gone by,&z. forward to that which is advanciiig, we niay_, atonce, indulge in grateful exulta- tion,a’ndi_n ‘cl'ieeri_ng.hope., F'rotii the expe- .ri‘enc'eoftl'ie past,we derive instructive lessons for the ftittire. Oftlie two great politic,al,par- ties whicli have divided_ the opinions and feel- ings ofoitr country, tltelcandid and just will now admit, that both have coiititibt_ite.d splen- rlitlitalents, spotless ill‘.t“gl'il_V, ardent patriot- ism, and disittterested sacrifices. to the forni- ation and adtiiinistration ofthis gov’t.; -81. that both have required ajliberal ititltilgetice for a portion of liuman infirmity and error. The revolutionary wars of Europe, ctiiiiirieitcitig precisely at the inonient wlieti the Go‘v’tof the U. S. first went itito operation under this Conktiilliifill, excited a collision of sentiment and sympathy,wlticlt kindled all the passions. and einbittered the conflict ofparties, till the nation was;involved in war, 31. the Union was shaken to its centre. This time of trial em- braced a period of 95 years, during Witi(‘ll,ille policy oftlte Union, in its relations-witli Eu- rope, consiittited the principal basis ofour po- litical divisions, and the most ardtious part of the action of otir Federal Gov’t. With the catastrophe in tthich the wars ofthe French Revolution terminated,&. otir own subseqtieni peace with Great Britain, this baneful weed ofparty strife was uprooted. From ‘that time "no differeiice of principle, connected eitliet’ with the theory ofgov’t,or with out intercoiirse with foreign nations, has existed, or been call- ed forth, in force sufiicieiit to sustain a con- -tinued combination of parties, or to give more titan wholesome animation to ptiblic senti- jlléfiii, or legislative ,debate. Our political creed is withotit a dissenting voice that can be “heard. That the will of the people is the source,&. the happiness ofthe people the end, of all'le-gitimate Gov’t npoti earth—Tliat the best security for the betieficeuce, and the best guaranty against the abtise, ofpower,consists in the freedoin, the purity, and the frequency of poptilar' electious,—-That the general gov’t. of the Union, and the separate governineuts of the State, are all sovereignties of limited powers ; fellow servants of the saute masters; uncontrolled within their respective spheres ; _uncon\nollable by eucroaclitnents tipoti each other——Tliat the firtnest security of peace is the preparation, diiring peace, ofthe defences of war—That a rigorous economy, & accoun- t_ability of ptiblic expenditures, sliottld guard against the aggravation, and alleviate, when possible, the btircietr, of.taxatioti———Tliat the .military should be' kept in strict subordination tothe civil power-——That the policy of our '_country ispeace, and the ark of otir salvation -_union, are articles of faith upon which we are ” all now agreed. Iftliere have been those who ' doubted whether a confederated representative deinocracy were a government competent to the wise and orderly‘ managenieiit ofthe com- "mon concerns ofaniiglity iiatioii,those dotilits _have been dispelled. lfthere have been pro jjects of partial confedei'acics to be erected up- on the rtiins of the ‘Union, they have been scattered to the winds-—If there have been dangerous attacltinents to one foreign nation, antipatliies against another, they have been extingtiislietl. Ten years of peace, at home and abroad, haveiassuaged the auiniosities of -political contention, and blended into harmo- ii'y- the most discordant elements of public 0- 'piuion. There still remains one effort oftiiag- .'r_ianir'nity, one sacrifice of prejudice and pas- siou,to be made by the individuals throughout rtheiiation, who have ltert-ttufo-re followed the ‘standard ofpolical party-—It is that of dis- ‘carding'cvet'y remnant of rancor against each ~'other ; of embracing. as friends and country- men, and ofyieldiugto talents and virtue a- lone, that confidence which, in times of con- ‘t;en't‘ioii forrpriticiplc, was bestowed only upon 1liltl_Se:\\"ll() ‘bore the badge ofpartyconitiiungiii. ‘ The collisions of party spirit, which origin- -ate in ‘speculative opi-nious, or in different ‘views ofadniiuist.rati_ve policy, are, .in their , nat'iiit=., transitory.‘ Those which are founded am geographical divisioiis, adverse interests ’0fs0_il, clitiiate, anti modes of domestic life, are more perinaneiit, and therefore perhaps more tlaiigerous. It is this which gives ines- limahle value to the character of otir Gov’t., at once federal and national. It holds out to- tis a perpetual admonition to preserve alike, and with equal anxiety, the rights ofea,ch in- dividual State in its ‘own governtnent, SJ. the rights ofthe whole nation in that ofthe Un- ion. 'Whatsoever is of tiotncstic concern- inent,’tinconnected with the other members of the Union, or with foreign lands, belongs exclusively to the administration ofthe State Governments. Whatsoever directly involves the rights anti interests of the federative fra- ternity, or of Foreign Powers, is of the resort of this General Government. The duties of botii are obvious infthe general principle, tho" sometimes perplexed with difiicultiegin the detail. -To respect the rights of the State Governments, is the‘ii’iviolable ditty oftltat oi thc.Union ; the gov’t. of every state will feel its own obligation to respect and preserve the Lights ofthe whole. The prejudices, every where too commonly entertained against_dis- taut strangers, are. w0I'tI away, and the jeal- ousies ofjarriiig i_nterests‘at'e allayetl, by the composition and ftinctioiis ofthe great Na- tional Councils, aniitiallyfasseinbied .frotn all qtiarters oftlte Utiion, at this place. _l~Iere tlfdistiiiguislietl men from every section of oiiii"couiitry,tvliile meeting to deliberate upon the great interests ofthose by whom they are depttted, learn to estimate the talents, and do justice to the virtues, of each other. The harmunv oftlte tiatinn is promoted, and the whole Union is knit together, by the semi- ments of mutual respect, the habits of. social intercottrse, 8:. the ties of personal friendship formed between the representativesofits"sev- eral parts", in the performance of their service at this metropolis, Passing fr. this general review ofthe pur- poses aiid injunctions of the fetleral constitu- tion, and their results, as indicating thefirst traces of the path ofdti_ty, in the discharge of my ptiblic trust, I turn to the aduiintstration of my immediate predecessor, as the second. it has passed away in a period'of' prolotind peace ; how much to the satislactioti of ottr country, and to the lionottr of otir countryls name, is known to yoti all. The great feat- ures ofitsptilicy, in general conctirrence with the will of the legislature, have lieen—To cherish peace while preparing for deletisive tvar—To yield exact justice to otlter nations, and maintain the rights of our own---—To cherish the principles of freedom and ofeqttal. rights, wherever they were pruclaiiitetl—To ,discliarg'e, with all possible prouiptitude, the natinnal debt-To |‘e(itl,(.'.(‘:,wllliilt the narrow- est limits of efl‘icieiicy._tlie uiilitary force——To itiiprove the on-gaiiizatioii and discipline of the ar’niy—-To provide and sustain a school of uiilitarly s‘cietice—‘——’1‘o extend equal protection to all the great interestsof _tlie iiation—To promote, the civilization of the Indian tribes; andl—To proceed in the great system ofiii- tetnal itiiproveiiieiits, witliiit the limits of the constit't_iti_oii;ii power of'thetinion. Under the pledge ofthese pijoniises, made by that enti- tieiit t-itizen, at the tiitie of his first induction to this oll‘it'e, in his career of eight years, the ititemal taxes have balm repealed ; sixty util- lions ofthe plii)li(‘..t'it"l’)l have been discharged; provision_ has been made for the comfort and rcliefoftlte aged and _indigent,aiiiong the sur- viving warriors of the revolution; the regular armed force has been l'€tlllC8(l,,al')(l its consti- tution 'reviscd and perfected ; tlieaccou tita- bility for the expenditures of public moneys has been made tiiore effective; the Floridas have been peaceably ac.quired,, and our boun- dary has been extended to tile Pacific ocean ; the independence of the southern natioiis of this lieiiiispliere has been recognized, and re- couiiiiended, byjexauiple and by council, to the potentate.-t ofEuropc; progress has been iiiadeiri the defence tiftlie country, by fortifi- cations and the increase ofthe navy—towards the effectual suppression ofthe African traffic in Sl2IVC.‘;—ill alluring the aboriginal hunters ofour land to the cultivation of the soil and of the tiiiiid——in exploring the interior regions of the tiiiion, and in preparing, by scientific researches and surveys, for the further appli- cation of our national resources to the inter- nal iniprovemeiit ofour country. , In tliisbriefotitlitie ofthe proiiiise and per- formance of my immediate predecessor, the line of dtity, for his successor, is clearly dcliii- eated. 'I‘o pursue to their consttiiiation those purposes of improvement in our common con- dition, iiistittited or recoitiiiietitled by him, will embrace the whole sphere of my obliga- tions. To the topic ofinternal improvement, emphatically urged by him, at his inaugura- tion, I recur with peculiar srttisfaction. It is that frotii which I am convinced that the tin- ages to. people this coiitinctit, will derive their tiiost fervciit gratitude to the founders of the its government will be most deeply felt antl acknowledged. The iiiagttiftcclice and splen- dor of their public works are among the im- perishable glories of the ancient republics.-— The i'oads.and aqttetlucts of.Rome have been the admiration of all after ages, and have survived, thousands of years, after all her coh- qttests have been swallowed tip in despotism, or become the spoil of barbarians. Some di- versity of opinion has prevailed with regard to the powers of congress for legislation upon objects of this nattiie. The most respectful tleference is dtie to doubts,origiiiating in pure patriotism, and sustained by veiieratetl au- thority. Btit nearly twenty years have passed since the coiistrticiion of the first national road was coiiitiieiiced. The authority for its construction was then iiiiqtiestiotied. ’I‘o how many lltoltsimtls of our countrymen has it proved a benefit ? To what single individual has it ever proved an injury ? Repeated lib- eral ‘and candid discussioiis in the legislature have conciliated the seiitiiiienls, and approxi- mated the opitiioiis of enlightened minds, tip_on the question ofcotistitutional power. I caiiuot but hope, that by the same process of friendly,patient and persevering deliberations, all constitutioiial objections will ultimately be removed. The extent anti limitation ofthe powers ofthe general government, in relation to this transceudently important interest, will be settled and acknotvletlged, to the common will be solved by a practical public blessing. ,Felluw citizens, yott are acqtiaintcd with the peculiar circttmstaiices ofthe recentelec- tion, which ltave resulted in afi'ording me the opportunity ofaddressing yoti at this tinie.—— You have heard the expositions ofthe princi- ples which will direct itic in the fulfilment of the high and soleinti trust iiuposed upon me in this station.
