Constitution of the United States?
We are not without an encouraging example on this
line in the history of the mother country in the his
tory of our ancestors—from wheat we derived, in
great measure, t|te principles to which we are so much
devoted. The truest friends of liberty in England
once, in 1642, abandoned the forum of reason, and ap
pealed. as we did, to the sword, is the surest means.
In their judgment, of advancing thairesqae. Thia was
after they had made great progress, under the lead of
Coke, Hampden, Falkland and others in the advance
ment of liberal principle*. Kany usurpations
been checked; many of the prerogatives of the Crown
had boon curtailed; the Petition of Bight had been
sanctioned; Ship-money bad been abandoned; Courts-
Martial bad been done away with; Babble cow
had been re-established; High Courts of Commiasiou
and Star-Chamber had been abolished; many Mher
great abuses of power had been corrected, and other
reform* established. Bnt not satisfied with these,
and not satisfied with the peaceful working of reason!
to go on in its natural sphere, the dental of the sover
eignty of the Crown was pressed by the too ardent re
formers upon Charles the First All else be had

to, to settle the question’; a civil star wae the result;

e«t acknowledgiariite of gratitude. Of one thing only
can I give you any assurance, and that la, tf I shall be
permitted to discharge the trusts thereby imposed,
they will be discharged with a singleness of purpose
to the public good.
The great object with me now is to see a restoration
“ Possible of peace, prosperity and constitutional
liberty in this once happy, but now disturbed, agi
tated and distracted country. To end all my en
ergies and efferts to the extent of their powers will be
devoted.
You ask my viewa on the exiating state of a fours;
our duties at tho present, and the prospects of the
future ? This is li task frog# which, under ordinary
circumstances, 1 might very well shrink. He who
ventures to speak, and to give counsel and advice in
times of peril or disaster, assumes no enviable posi
tion. Far be that rashness trout ms which sometimes
prompts the forward to rush in where angels might fear
to tread, to responding, therefore, briefly to your-en
quiries, I feel, 1 trust, the foil weight and magnitafle of
the subject. It involves the welfare of millions now
living, and that of many more millions who are to
came after us. I am also fully impressed with the
consciousness of the inconceivably small affect of what
I shall say upon the momentous results involved in
the subject itself.
It is with these feelings I offer my mite of counsel
at your request. And in tho outset of the undertaking, ;
limited as it is inteded to be, to a few general ideas i
only, well may 1 imitate an illustrious example in in
voking aid from on High, "that 1 may aay nothing on
thia occasion which may compromit the rights, the I
honor, the dignity, or heat interests of my country."
1 mean specially the rights, honor, dignity, bff*
interests ur ine people or Georgia. Wub their ■miter
ings, ther losses, their misfortunes, their bereave
ments, and their present utter prostration, my heart
is to deepest sympathy.
We have reached that point in oar sffelrs at which
the great question before us is—"to be or not to be ?**
and if to be ? How ? Hope, ever springing In tha
human breast, prompts, even under the greatest ca
lamities and adversities, never to despair. Adversity
is a sever.' school, a terrible crucible, both fur Indivi
duals and communities. We are now in thia school,
this crucible, and should bear to mind that it is
never negative iu its action, Jt is always positive. It
is ever decided iu its effects one «gy gr the other. It
either makes better or worse. It'either brings out
unknown vices, or arouses dormant virtues, to mor- I

What further advancement they may make, or to what
standard they may attain, under a different system of
laws every way suitable and wisely applicable to their
changed condition, time slotte can disclose. I apeak
of them aa we now know them to be, having no longer
the protection of a master, or legal guirdian; they
no# need ail the protection which tha shield of the
law can give.
B*t above all thia protaoticffiahouM be secured, be-
eatteh it is right and just that a should be, upon gene-
i (hi ffriadplee. All governments In their organic
structure, as well as iu their administration, should
have thia leading object in vie#—the guud of the gov
erned. Protection and security to all under its juris
diction should b* the chief end nf every government.
It is a melancholy truth, that while this should be the
Chief end of all governments, most of them are used
only m (njtnipb'fita of power for the segreadixement
of the few, at the expense iff SaM by tqe oppression bt
the many, Such are not par ideas of government,

according to oar ideas, should look to the good of the
