Rail-reads' and cannis ‘nave joinetfin the be- 1
cred bonds ofporpelual union, our mountains,
kkes ami riVurs, and intelligence is convey
*v] from one to’ the other by lightning ila&fir.
Bcient;*, too, has lighted up all her lamps,
tint! at her altars, erected upon spots where,
ufew years ago. riiefoiest Vvik grow it) wifd
luxuriance, are found innumerable votaries.
JWhalhavb we not gained in war I New
Orleans, Chippewa, Lundy’s Lane, and
last, though not tetri,’the spots where Ring
gold and Brown have been lately shrouded
it) the co(d mantle ,"t mortality, attest, that
tho spirit Which burned when Warren and
“Siontgomery fell, still lives in the hearts of 1
their countrymen. Such have been the
blessings of oor glorious government,—
folding the breakers.on.whiph the,r Re
publics have wrecked anif-fiuniilered,'it
stand* to-day in stately majesty, the pride
r>f the patitot’t heart, the wonder ttr.d admi
ration of Chrtsendom.
But, while we recount the glories of the
past, and congratulate each other upon our
piMtct happy condition, let us also remem
ber, there ts a wrestlessncss tn all human
government, which hurries on with equal
rapidity from evil to good, and good to evil.
The past tells many a tele f freedom lost,
Htnlfreurfom won. Time in his resistless
course rolls over Empires and leav
ing no traces of their fotraer renown, but
broken columns and fragments innumerable.
The spirit of change is ever active. Espe
cially, is this snia a government like ours.—
Public opinion by which we mean, uot the
opinions of those who sit in the high place*
of power, or the cool shades of philosophy,
but the separate and individual opinions of
the toiling millions, whuswarm in our towns
aud villages, field* auil wotkshops, all con
centrated in the Ballot-box i tho ocean on
which Republican, Freedom floats. The
mas* earm-4 be pure, if the parts are rotten
and corrupt, ltl then, the individual opin- j
ions which composa this ocean notlanv- |
ened with rntelligunce, and subordination toj
law, it will rage with tempests, and boil 1
with whirlpools. In view of this, wo who :
are now the acton, on the stage of life turn
to our achuuls and places of instruction. —
In them, history unfolds the causes of na
tional greatness, end decline; in tliem, man's
position on the map of existence, is pointed
out to the eager and curious gaze, and our
general and State governments illustrated
and explained, in all their pails. From
them annually go- forth Into all the apart
ments of life, young men clothed with the
rich panoply of cultivated intellect, who wdl
support the fabric of government, when the
present generation have passed away. 3uch
school* aud Colleges of my country, are your
blessings. Who, worthy TO Fe a legislator
or a freeman, can besitste to increase your
pecuniary endowments, when necessary to
extend-your usefulness.
But, fellow citizens, that education which
is addressed entirely to the head, dues not
meet the want* of society. We are well
aware of the tendency of intellectual cutfuie,
to elevate and purify the moral feelings.—
Let us not. however, place tou much reliance
on this fS&t of the mental constitution. The
proudest minds the ivurld has ever pro
duced have been darkened, as with a fear
ful eclipse, by perverted re a aim, and mis
guided ambition. Our own observation
furnishes instances of ibis character. Mind
unregulated by moral principle, is a curse,
instead of a blessing. It makes tire rogue
and scoundrel, whom you can buy with a
dollar, the successful cheat and swindler,
whose price rises a little higher, and dema
goguesoti the political common “ a countless
throng,” bankrupt in character and fortune.
The heart must be educated, as well as the
bead. Asa means of doing this, we pos
sess an efficient auxiliary in the religion we
constantly hear proclaimed from the sacred
desk. It is not my province to speak of its
divinity or power in the regeneration of
man’s fallen nature. I refer to it as a teacher
of morality. By the principles it proclaims
and inculcates, the minds of alt are insensi
blv impregnated wit!) it* elevated morals,
ind the foundations of the social state are
continually renovated and strengthened.—
‘Thu.prtTtQipliift.daAlqpfthle front its documents
are congenial with those of dcmociatic lib
erty. It-proclaims the great truth _pf man*
equality, and rebukes the vanity and empti
ness of a!! artificial distinctions. Under its
teachings the world has already been re
claimed from barbarism to civilization- from
ignorance to knowledge. Caoghtby poor
and despised fishermen, From the lips of the
humble anJ lowly Nazarene, it has marched
on conquering and to conquer, and its tri
umphs shall only end when the uiiHenia!
morn, foretold by prophets and poets, shall
tie ushered in with the song of Cherubim
and Setaphim. Liberty, Equality, Virtue
and Truth arc its accompanying ministers ;
and he who raises his puny arm to damp its
Spirit, is guilty, ignorantly it may he, of
the parricidal■■ effort to destr >y the best hopes
of society.
In conclusion, permit me to address a few
word* to those of the other sex who have
honored U with their presence on this <>c
cation. Upon Woman rests much of the |
destiny of the hutifan race. Her influence,
liketft* preuore of the Mmosphete-; is silent
hit powerful. How can it bo otherwise 7
Jf, when th* leases are sddrosjs ! by Rte :
j imposing forms of grandeur and subrim-’
iiy iirtiie inatenal wotld, the soulsoon catch
es tho inapir.'it ion iTtlie genius pftlie segue, ,
surely the purity and loveliness of that beau
ty in which dignity of manner, grace of per-,
son and goiitieuess and hftnnony of voice
vio with each Other, for excellence, can never
fail to inspire the. noblest sentiments,)!) the
heart of man. This inspiration is felt by
every member of the “Xlorgati Rifles,”
and I am authoiised to say, they all believe
the old story, that even ‘ the. angels of Heav
en, whfea on earth, fell in: love with the
daughters of men.” But for fear we may
he considered romantic, or what is worse,
a little love lick, view the subject in the
light of a coid aud prosaic philosophy.—
Thus viewed,'who on earth exerts so much
influence as the M!her ? She stands at
the head of tho race. .With- the gentle
touch of her finger, she moulds anti sash?
ions the character of her child. What pat*
riotic mother doe* not feel her solemn real
poncibility 1 Under its iflnuenec,’ let her
Sail her boy from his yout'hfil sports, and
with a tenderness and interest that shall en
gage hi* attention, point him to the charac
ters cf Liberty and Equaihy insetibed on the
folds of his conntry’* flag. Tell him George
Washington and Benjamin Franklin were,
at one period of their lives, tho one a strip
ling Surveyor in the wild woods of Virgin
ia, aud the other without a friend or a dol
lar, an offcast, wandering boy in the streets
of Philadelphia. Make him understand, by
prudence, industry and integrity alone they
roe froth their humble position. Say to
him, the first snatched the rod fiomthe
hands of oppression, bloke it, and acted as
high priest at the altar, when tho book was
opened in which is Written the rights of
man, while the other taught Philosophy new
lessons, defied the thunderbolt, and played
| with the electric fluid of the Heavens. Go
or with tho story, aid tell him, “ though
! dead, they etill live!” Carty him to the
l “
j Temple of Fame, and, among the images of
i all ;he great and good, point out that of
j Washington in the loftiest, proudest niche!
j and wht n the lightning plays along the sky,
j show him the name of Franklin written on j
j it* wing, and borne to every land in the far
off roll of the retreating thundet ! His eye
; vrill kindle, his bosom swell, ambition in
spire him to he useful in his day and genefS
lion ; and long it may he after your image
lias ceased to meet him on earth, he will
stand, proud and erect, amid his fellow men
with the volume of his duty in Lis hands
and obedience written on his heart. This,
this is Woman's influence. Let liar exert
it, and she shall have a garland richer than
ever adorned a huiur pruta
es may never be sounded by cannot) or
trumpet, but she will enjoy the smiles of
Heaven, the gratitude of her Country, and
theapproval of her own unsullied conscience!
