at the present time, to support their ▼ast standing anoies end imposing 1 fleets? Look at Russia, Austria, Pros, sia, France and England, who, jealons j of each other, are spending with a lavish hand, millions of tre:sure, either to watch each other, or in the yet more questionable matter, of sustaining the “balance of power.” The balance of power, whet is it, what is it worth? We J believe in the balance of right und of prlitical liberty. Thank heaven we have this balance on our side; not sustained, however, by menacing armies or threatening fleets; bnt by the patriotic feelings an^ united strength of the people of onr entire land. Against these evils and burdens tbe tide of revolution bas rolled again and again throughout tha w hole of Europe. The people have arisen in their might, contending for Uie right, but alas! in tbe many instances to be betrayed by leaders, or crashed by mercenary soldiery against political degradation, domineering aristocracy', ecclesiastical. tyrrany, and unjust and exacting taxation, have they persisted, but without success. From these, tbe direst corses that ever fell upon nations, we a{» freed. I know it (nay be urged, that

of these, at least, have not been

imposed by tbe mother conntry upon her present provinces. This is trne.— What is the probable.reason? Did she not, in her failure to establish her an tbority, and coerce tbe people of these United States into her measures, lose the prestige of her power over her territories, and consequently since that time has been under the necessity of

pursuing a more liberal policy? Now let us glance at % blessings se-

cured to ns by the heroism and indomitable perseverance of our forefathers.— We hare civil and religious liberty alike enjoyed by all Every man may have his own opinion, and express the same whenever he may choose, without fear of Bastile or exile. We may meet together in political council, or religions convocation, io discuss the great questions of the age Are there evils, we may remedy them at the polls; do we seek tbe establishment of new theories, we may use all the influence we possess to gain others to our views, and at tbe ballot box, express our united opiuion. And as in politics, so in religion; we are left to the undisturbed exercise and enjoyment of our faith. Although we have no State church, yet we are not without religion. True religion needs no State crutch to lean upon; aud that church, whatever may be its professions or pretentions, which cannot sustain itself witbont such aid, ought to die, for Its life U not worth preserving. I think, UxJ^ Mr. president, and fellow citizens, that we have as j«st laws and as economical a government as any people have ever bad npoo tbe fhee of the earth.— Surely |he Hues have fallen to us iu
