FeNozv C:tizens,


The PreGdent of the United States having
been pleafed to appoint me Governor of that
part of Loufana, which is conttituted "I'he
Territory of Orleans" / have attended in this
Hall, Fellow-Citizens, to take in your prefcnce
the Oaths OF Once required by Law.
In this additional and ditinguifEled proof of
confidence from the Chief Magiftrate of our
common country, find the ftrongeft induce
nents to merit, by my conduct, continuance
OF his appreciation TO deferve yoars alto, fell
iow-citizens, is my fincere dehre, and lhall te
the tondeit Object of my cares.
All the felicity which recent doneftie# ca
family has left for me to feek or enjoy, isin con-
tributing to the happincfs of thoie over whom
am called to prefide. The Importance of the
truit committed, and the high relponfibiIity at
tached thereto, are forcibly i,npreiitd upon my
mind, and have excited the mott anxious folici-
tnde. On entering however on my arduous du-
ties, anticipate with pleaflIre the powerful aid
which blaIl receive from the judicial and legif-
tative authorities, AND the kind indulgence and
Import which generous people always extend
to the honeft efforts of public officer. PAT
events, fellow citizens, guarantee the fuIhlment
OF tneie expectations. In the courfc of my late
administration, which from variety of circum-
haliceS was accompanied with particular diff
cultIes, received from the officers, civil and mi
litary, jealous and able cooperation in all
meaiures for the public good, and from the PEG
PIE IN general an indulgence and fupport which
encouraged harmony, and injured the fuprema-
cy of the law.
lam now ready to takeand fibfcribe the oafhs
OF Office required And / pray Almighty God
TO Whit with his favor the Magistrates and Lee
elidtors OF this Territory F; to enable them to
prtlerve TO her citizens and their poferity, the
hieihngs of Peace, Liberty, Laws and thus to
foren thoe evils which wife providence has
annexed, in this world, to the condition of man.
