PUBLICK VENDUE.
Gentlemen of the Senate, and
Gentlemen of the House of Reprefentatin>es2
IT is with peculiar facisfaction I meet
you again in session. when the rapid pro
gress of agriculture and manufactures,
and the flourishing state of commerce,
wear fofavourable an afpeft ; and when
those great National affairs that con
cern the United States in general, which
formerly occupied a con fiderable part of
the time and attention of the legeflature,
having by the adoption of the General
Government devolved on the national Ic
gifl&ture,has afforded us a favourable op
portunity to attend with more delibera
tion to those matters that principally
concern the interest of this State in
particular : And this being the feafop of
the year when this legislature can melt
conveniently attend to the affairs of the
public, you will permit me to suggest for
your cpnfideration such matters as appear
to me to require your attention the prefenc
session.
Mr. Moses L. Neal was chosen As
sistant Clerk to the House.
Mr. Secretary Pearson came down
from the Hon. Senate, with the following
MESSAGE
From His Excellency
The PRESIDENT.
The Secretary will lay before you such
public papers as I have received since
your last meeting ; among which you will
observe an aft of Congress palled the 4th
of Aoguff last, entitled, " An Aft making
provision for the debt of the United
States," which will, I apprehend, re
quire your early attention.
The proposal of ceding the Light-House
in this Stare, which was under your con
sideration at the last feffio%wiil probably
be resumed at this, and determined in such
manner as you shall think will be most for
the interest of the State ; and the expert
fes we have been at in supporting the
Light-House iince the 15th of August,
1789, adjufled, in Order that the money
may be received agreeable to the Act of
Congress.
The A& for railing a revenue in this
State by excise, I would recommend to
your consideration, whether, as our affairs
arc now circumstanced, the continuing it
longer will be beneficial 'to the public—
you will determine; and if you ffiould
think proper to continue the excise in
whole or in part, whither a different mode
of collecting it might not be adopted with
advantage.
A revision of the laws and statutes prac
tifed upon in this State, and adapting
them to our present situation, is a matter
greatly to be desired, that the people ,ac
large may know what are the laws that
are now in force : And if your committee
who were appointed for that purpose are
ready to report, I should hope the business
will be properly attended to the present
session, ,
The advantage of good roids, to keep
up a free & easy communication through
the- State, and proper encouragement
to Poll-Risers to carry difparches and in
telligence thro' the different parts ofit,
is so great, that it is worthy your consider
ation whether the expence that will ac
crue will not be greatly overbalanced by
the advantages that may rationally be
expelled from it, in giving the citizens a
better opportunity of being acquainted
with the public affairs of the State, and
more effectually uniting and cementing
then: in one common interest.
time the public papers would be laid be
fore the house.
I have seen, with some concern, consi
derable part of the time of the legislature
frequently taken up in hearing anddeter
mining on private petitions, to the hin
drance of public business, ex penfe to the
parties and the State, and'lofs to the in
dividuals who compose the legislature ;
and I would recommender to your consi
deration, whetbecti many cases some o
ther mode might not be adopted for grant
ing relief, (that would do equal justice
to the parties at left txpenfe to the State
and to them.
