tanned Of the operations of the natioua, 49,

have but one sentiment as TO its con,;r...
ance. Massachusetts will be among The laat
to impair toe union of the states, as sbs
would be the last silently to abandon hs s
own just rights.
Regulating commerce and encourac;,s.
manufactures fall within the province of tLs
national government. The rights and hsr -.
efits of the former are probably as extensive
as consists with the rights and Interest, e
other nations. The distress which Soma IS
our manufacturing citizens have suffered
from the astonishing changes that have 70.
Gently taken place in Europe and in Amer.
ca are undoubtedly great, and excite o,r
sympathy. Congress may, probably. in Al.
justing their new tariff of duties. have don.
as much for their relief as due regard -
justice and the good Of the community a.
large would allow.
While the renewal of the scenes of war
must be deprecated by every benevolent
and patriotic heart, it must be highly salts.
factory to you, gentlemen, to observe. that
the interests of naval and military establish.
ments are consulted and patronized. and
that the formation of respectable military
depots is taking place in various parts of the
United States, and particularly in the yicin,
ity of this ancient seat of government.
Having received sundry letters from the
several governors of the states of Rhode.

fore you as likewise copy of law Of

in each regiment of militia, instead of one
lieutenant colonel to each regiment, and
one major to each battalion. Considera.
tons of some weight as it regards the off.
GERS who are to be affected by the operation
of this law, may perhaps lead you to make
some provision for carrying it into effect Tho

TO receive they take the present occasion to express
their satisfaction at the choice of Chief Magis-
trate who has shared the confidence Of the immortal
WASHINGTON in the days of peril, and who in ma
ny and responsible stations has uniformly sewn his
veneration for the principles of that llustrous hero
aud sage. They congratulate themselves and the
Commonwealth that the firm and beloved patriot

Torrance of public duty will ever be remembered

expressions OF appreciation aud confidence ;-and
the urbanity with which the occasion has been
marked, are extremely aattering to me and cannot
fail TO act as incentives to vigilance and fidelity ia
executing the duties of the station which my fellow
citizens have assigned to me.
To have been a soldier of the Revolution, and to
have shared the confidence of the immortal W ASH
INGroN, are considerations which always afford
ne the most heartfelt satisfaction.-Such advan-
,ages as may have derived from the precepts ana
example of that unrivaled hero and sage, are more
highly estmable as they may enable me to be useful
IN promoting the welfare of Massachusetts.
