I would not wish to speak unkindly of the
views and designs of any portion Of this 118-
tion‘: but it carinot be concealed that the de-
termined anti-tariff policy of the planting
_ States, it determination which has once well
nigh broken the golden chain which binds
its together, is at war with the true interests
of New England. A dark cloud is now
what lies
“in the future we cannot tell, but we are
'called to sympathize with the manufacturer;
‘and as legislators, to afibrd him any relief
in our power.
It is one of our misfortunes, that at this
day there is so much ccrsalilily of 07)I:‘Il.'l.0.'Il
tipbn certain great interests; our policy has
become as variable as the tears or fortunes
of contending parties. At the commence-
ment of the late war, under the. fostering
hand of government, the. nation embarked in
manufactures; this policy prevailed until
1833, when it was discovered by the South,
that a tarilfofdiscriminating duties was con-
trary to the constitution, that duties on im-
ports were, after all. mere duties on exports.
and unequal toward the South. 'I‘o appease
discontent and disarm the spirit of disunion,
the principle of discrimination was yielded,
and a new system introduced, which if con-
tinued, will,JI much fear, be followed by a-
larming consequences. _
Our financial policy is niarkcd with a
like uncertainty. As I have before said,
from 1791 to lSll we hada National Bank;
after five years of disorder and losses, like
what we now see, all parties, with extensive
unanimity, upon the rccornmendrrtiuti of Mr‘.
I\’I‘.1CllSOn,'Clllll‘l.t?l'C(.l another batik, which cori-
tinued uiitil l83C'. fforigress then rechar-
tered it. The Pic-siderit did not concur in
the‘ views of Congress, and refused his assent
to the bill. State l;»anks were recommended,
for the of the Treasury, as likewise an
iiicrease of their number, and a free use of
the public money while deposited. But now,
:1 national bank is held to be unconstitution-
al, not-zivii/islrziirliiig forl_1/ fr/cars’ e.rpcr'ierzcc,
and the decisions of the sup-Merrie jiuli'ci(rr_2/
of the rialion to the contrzzry; state banks
are repudiated and denounced; paper money,
after sixty years’ rise, is found to be unlawful
and l.ll'lS21Tt.‘..; coin is to be an exclusive. cur-
rency in public Il'i1llSJClI0llS, at least; and an
independent treasiiry to be anew agent of
fiscal operations.
New notions are becoming currcfnt as to
the title and proper disposition of the nation-
al domain, notions incompatible with solemn
compacts and public honor, yet not discoun
tenanced by st.'itr-smen high in favor.
Noxv, lL‘lI)\V c”tizer:s, are these gre;rt inter-
ests settled? or docs Llllt'.'t'l‘idlllly hang upon
them .7 How then can there remain any
courage, confidence, credit or contentment?
The government seems to be losing respect
for the e.\'perirnce and wisdom of others.——
'I‘he same spirit has siezed the citizen in his
concerns; he too has no dread ol innovation;
re has resolved to brtcome rich in -.1 day———
Thc smallest prospect ofsuddcn gain tempts
him from the prith of regular industry; in-
cautious zeal pushes him to attempt what he
may not accomplish. Because some have
realized wealth by good fortune, too many
have resolv-.d totry soiuc shorter road to the
object oftheir desire.
I have thus gentlemen endeavored to‘ sur-
vey the years of our prosperity and the pol-
icy which then prevailed; to enquire wh.-rt is
our present conditions, the nature and origin
ofour ClI'll)ztl‘l'1?lSSln€nlS, and by what course
we may hope to remove them. I am aware
that the outline has sen but faintly filled
up, and that much is left to your better
judgement and experience.
The respon~sibil'ities of legislators, at this
period are unusually great; it is a day of
deep excitement and‘ bold experiment, of un-
precedented reverses, sacrifices and l0sscs—
our constituents are turning imploriug eyes
upon us and upon Congress in the hope of
relief. I fear too that party strife is closing
the mind against truth, and giving unjust
sway to prejudice and passion. Let ‘us en-
deavor to prosecute our duties with minds
open to conviction; listen with c‘:rndoi' to
every complaint, redress every wrong, and
firmly meet every duty. Let us adminis-
ter liberally and with "patriotic motives, a
governinentj ustlyendeared to our constituents
Let me gentlemen in conclusion, express
to you and the people of this State. my
thanks for the distinguislied honor of this re-
newed expression’ of confidence and esteem.
I can make no other return than a firm pur-
pose of studying your interests, and carrying
out, to my utmost ability, the spirit of the
oath which I have taken‘: May God protect-»

A short time sifice a procession moved through
