Delivered June 8, ißol—Hopkinton.
Mr. Prefidrat, and Gentlemen of the Sin ate,
Mr. Speaker, and Gentltmtn
of tie House of Referefent atiqjts,
AT the last session of the legislature, a resolution
was pailed, expressing their opinion, that one ses
sion for the present year would be fufficient to
tranfia the neceffar, business of the State. It is
presumed the resolution was made public, that
the refeaive members might attend withthe idea
of remaining in feflion until the necefiary business
of the year was completed, if they ihould think
proper. If you ihould think another session un
necessary, it may be proper at this time to provide
for granting county taxes ; also to affix thole
grants or salaries, which have been usually (tho'
perhaps not more properly) made near the close
of the year. A letter from his Excellency Gov.
Ogle, with certain resolutions of the state of Ma
ryland, proposing alterations in the Constitution
of the United States, as it refpeds the choice of
Eledors of President and Vice President, and of
Representatives to Congress, will be laid before
you, and will undoubtedly have all that consider
ation which the importance of the fubje& requires
—To preserve our National government as the ~
great cementing power over the several States,
for the purposes for which it was originally de
signed, is highly important. Completely free in
its principles, alterations may be made with facil
ity ; but due care Ihould be taken, left changes
in its parts should ultimately injure the general
system. If we confider the state of our country
previous to the adoption of the Federal Consti
tution, have we not the highest reason to rejoice
in our prosperity, under the operation of that go
vernment for 12 years past ? Shall we be able to
find, from any source of information whatever,
that more favorable alterations have ever taken
place in any nation, within so short a space of
time ? Our almost loft public credit has been
restored ; our (hipping and foreign commerce
greatly increased, notwitbftanding the unprovok
ed depredations which have been made thereon
by several of the European nations ; large prices
are obtained for the surplus produce of our lands.
Labour & industry find a good reward. Wealth
has increased, and the general prosperity is very
apparent; and while a large part of the European
world, with whom we have various conneaions,
has been long involed io wars of the most affliß
ing and deftruaive kind, our country, by the
wife and prudent measures of the Government,
has been preferred from war, with one and anoth
er nation, when appearances strongly indicated
that it would not be prevented.
Diversity of opinions refpeaing the choice of
persons for managing the public concerns, and
refpeaing the public measures most proper to be
pursued, will exist in fame degree. The division
