THE MESSAGE.

THE FIRST CENTURY OF THE REPUBLIC.
To the Senate and House of Representatives:
In submitting my seventh annual
message to cOngr6 ss, in this, the Gen.
tennial year Of our national existence
as free and independent people, it sf-
f0rds me great pleasure TO recur TO the
advancement that has teen made from
the tiGe Of the colonies, ore hundred
yeats ago. We were then apeople num-
boring only thee millions; now we num-
her more than forty millions. Then our
industries were confined almost exclu-
sively to the tillage Of the soil; now
manufactures absorb much OF The labor
Of the country. Our libsIt es remain
unimpsired. Tee bOUdsmen have been
freed from slavery; We have become
possessed OF The respect, if not friend
ship, Of all civilized nations; our pro.
gress has been great in all the arts, in
scierce, commerce, navigation, mining,
mechanism, law, medicine, eie. and IN
general education.
