There are some subjects, however. of
such primary importance, that cannot for
bear bringing them to the particular attention
OF the Legislature among which, / beg

sent system {: all temporising expedients, up
en- the present ground work, will eventuate
in abortion. The best interests of the com
monwealth require. we should not conceal
the tact, that the effort to discipline the mi
litia has, IN all its great essentials, IN aterial-
y failed. 1t the wretched subject of despo-
tIsm, to defend ms government, such as it
is, be compelled to devote the prime of
his life, what does the freeman not owe ia
his, which watches over his happiness and
eXempts him from all the calamities of 'sla-
eye
If it be the law of our nature that no
great blessing can be long enjoyed without
labor and expense, why should we repine I:
why hesitate to make the sacrifice, if it be
trivial, compared 10 the good to be obtain
ed /! presume to suggest to the Legisla-
ture two modes, either Of which, if adopted
promises to produce the most decisive ad-
vantages. The first, and most desirable is
the instruction OF both officers and privates !;
the second, of the officers onlv to accom-

an opportunity Of acquiring the necessary
deXterity, in tactics; and from the duration
OF the drill be calculated to rivet upon the

in that situation, they should draw rations

every gentleman, the least conversant with
the mode now pursued, will COMPEL him TO

is attended with a mere waste IF time. II
the system proposed should be Considered
as involving the coiisump tion of roo much
