A petition of the Sele6tmen Of
Portland, praying for law to pro-
hibit the erection of a THEATRE in
that town, was referred to Joint
committee.
Meiirs. Story, Brindley & Adams,
were appointed to conGder the expe-

the printed copies Of private acts and
refolves, publiihed BY order of the
General Court, TO be good evidence
thereof. in all the courts Of law, &c.
Ordered, That the Chaplains of
the two Houfes be requefed to Off
ciate alternately in the two chambers
Of the Legislature, as it may fuit

At u o'clock, the two Houfes az
fembled in the Representatives
chamber, when His Excellency The
Governor, preceded by the Sheriff
Of Suffolk, and attended by His
Honor the Lieutenant Governor,
the Hen. Council, and the Secretary
of the State, came in, and delivered
the following
SPEECH:
Geutic,sf4 st-ibe Senate, and

WE. have the pIea1ure 10
meet again in circumstances Of
public Profperity. The Produc-
tons Of the lalt year have been
fully fuficient to fupply the
wants Of the people, although at
one feafon the prolPe6t was un-
favorable; and they have been
exempt from the fatal Gcknets
with which fome principal towns
in other ltateS have been vitited.
We are therefore bound to ac-
kpowledgethe kind interPolition
of Providence in our behalf
AT the fame time il becomes us
to make ule Of the motif efe6tu-
all precautions that can be devi-
fed, to guard our fellow citizens
againa the return OF that dcito-
lating difeafe.
The PreiIrnt'S late Menare

treaty has been concluded with
Tripoli, in which the ranlom Of
our countrvmen was agreed 70,
and to which he fuccelafuI en-

trainers of the National Confi-

preferred by the feveraI States,
but thole alto which before had
been devifed in other ages and
nations and though the repeat
ed experiment, which have lince
taken place in Europe, may fug-

aSord nothing for imitation. If

became fubje6t, was perfectly
Plealed with every part. It was
the retult Of mutual concelion,
and fuch indeed mutt always be
the cafe, when 4 form Of Gov
ernment is voluntarily accepted
by a Community.
Almof every nation, at fome
period Of their exitence, have
enjoyed the privileges Of a free
State but how few have pre-
ferved them they have been
loft by the inconltancy Of the
citizens, or forfeited by their
vices. In many Republics, r.
pcated vorious in modes of Gov
ernment have taken place, as
different parties happened 70
predominate, until the people
become weary Of changes, ana
Perferred the quiet Of abfolute
power, to tumults Of perpetual

Since your former fehion, the
Agents tor building the State
Prlion have completed that fer

the act paaed the I5thlait June,
the officers Of the Inltitution,
have been appointed and regu-

who had been fentenccd to hard
labor, were impriioned, requir-
ing them to remove fuch con-
vi6ts to the State Prilon, and
thirty-four have been removed
accordingly. You will perceive
the neceflity of attending to
this fubje6t during the preGent
Seflion, as the act expires on the
first day Of June, and the Cen
eral Conrt Of the next year will
not be able TO make the necefa- |
ry arrangements concerning it
before thar time.
The contribution makes it the
duty of the Legislature, frequent
ly to atiemble for the redrefs of
grievances----for correcting, !
strengthening and confirming
the laws, and for making new
laws as the common good may
require Thefe several objects,
| have no doubt, will receive
your attention. If any Of the
exiting laws are found 10 be op-
preilive or injurious in their eff

pealed ; if any fail to anfwer
the intended purpoGe. YOU will
correct and amend them and
if uieful regulations are not OBJ
lerved, or the delign Of the Le-
giAature which eltablilhed them
is eIuded, you will adopt fuch
mealures as fhall tend to give
them itrength and Efficacy
and you will alfo enact iuch ad-
ditionaI laws, as the general in
terelt Of the fate, or the accom-
mediation Of particular corporate
bodies or individuals may re-
quire.
1t is pofible, however, that a
government ike ours, where
the acts and reGolves Of the Le-
pi1ature are fometimes pafed |
with great facility and expedi-
ton, the laws may be too num-
erous and be extended TO cafes |
too minute and particular. The !
