Sr convinced ot ibis w;is the first of my predecessors iu this office now firß in the memory, as living hew first in the hearts of our country, that, once and'n»ttir u Iff- nddr»L«eg to the Con gresses with whom h* co-oper.v J in m pblic s* rvi* c. hf ' earnestly recommended the csta* 'lshm yl -joip.urlcs ot learn i t to prepare for all the emerg; it «. war—a na ■ual university and a military »,< leim’. t.ii respect loth" »liter, had he lived to the present in turning his eves ‘to the institution . West JVinl, he would h vo unjoyed the gratlt’n atioii of his most earnest wishes. Rot, in so "eying the city which has been honored with Immune, he would litre seen the spot of earth which he had destined and bequeathed to the use and benefit of his country, as the i.le for an university, still h re ami ’ arren. In assuming her Rh‘ <u —long the ci il Mid nations of t+ie earth, it would * 4 t »ur country had contiacted Ih engage ment to coßlrbuM ' r ..are of mind, of 1:. or, and ol expense, to the improvement' j.arts of knovrled -• rhlch lie beyond the reach of indivi'u ~ a* quisitioh n.id’ ir cularlv, to geo graphical and astronomical science. Lookin' hack to the history only ol the half century since the Pecl.irfctLu of our Indepen dence, and oh rving the generous emulation w ih which the gw vernment of Fiance, Great briuin, and Russia, haye devoted the genius the Intelligence, the trensfiiV- f their respective na tions, to the common improvement of lb • .-ies in these bran dies of science, is it not incumbent upon i to inquire, whether we are not bound, by obligations ot a hi h and honorable char acter, to contribute our portion U J energj and exertion to the com mon stock ? Xbe voyages of discovery, prostituted in the course Jof that time, at the expense of I hose nations, have nut only redound ed to their glory, but to the improvernen' of human knowledge. Wejhave been partakers of that improv mnit, and owe for it a sacred debt, not only ot gratitude, but hi equal or proportional exertion in the same common raus f f the cost of t hrs« un dertakings, if Ilia mere expenditures ini outfit, equipment, and completion of Urn expeditions, were jo be considered the only I charges, it would be unworthy of a g/ial and generous nation to take a second thuu-’ On ; huodmd expeditions of circum navigation, like «i ■ ■ ->• h and I. a Berouse, would not burden the exchequer o. U .ion tilting them out, so much as the way a j and means of dei a', single campaign in war. But, if we i take ini * the bccdUu. the lives <>f those benefactors ol mankind, of which their service iin the cause of their species were the purchase, how shail the cost of those heroic enterprises be egli mated A.id what c jrhpensnti jq can be made to them, or to their counlr ■*, for Mi i rn ■ Is it not by bearing in affectionate re membrance? 1 il mt till more byiin'f .mg their example? by enabling countrymen ol our own to punutj the same career, and to hazard tieir lives ir the same cause ? In inviting the ittention of Congress to the subject of Internal Improvements, upon a view thus enlarged, il jj not my design to recommend the equipment of »a expedition tor circumnavigating the glouc for purposes of .'cicbtilic research and inquiry. We have objects ol useful investigation nearer home, and to which our cares may bi more bouetii.mllv applied. The iulerior of our 0. , n territories has yet been very imperfectly explored. Our coasts, along many degrees of laltlndf upon the shores of the Pacific ocean, though much irequenled by our spirited cominer cial navigators, have been barely visaed by our public ships. The River ol the Weil, first fully discovered and navigated by a countryman of our own, still bears the name ..1 the ship in which he ascended |ts waters, and claims the protection 01 our armed national liug at Us mouth. VV ilh the • aUhfi. iimenl of a military post there, oral some other point of that co. 1, recommended by my predecessor, and already matured, 111 the deliberations of the last Congress, I would suggest the expediency of connecting the equipment of a puolic ship fri the exploration ot the whole north west coast ot this continent. The establishment of an uniform standard of Weights and Measures, was one ol the specific objects contemplated in the formation of uur Constitution ; and to fix that standard, was one of the powers delegated by express terms, in that instrument, to Congress. The governments of Great Britain and France have scarcely ceased to be occupied with inquiries and speculations on Me same subject, sin e ihe existence ol our constitution, and with them it has expanded into profound, laborious, and expensive re searches mio the figure ol the earth,and the comparative length of the pendulum vioraling seconds m various latitudes, from ii„ ; .I'quator tq the Bole. 1 iiese researches have resulted iu the com position and publication of several works highly imerestiug | f> the cause of science, fbe experiments are yet m the process ol performance. Some of them have recently been made on oui own shores, within the walla of one of our own colleges, arid partly by oaeofonr own follow citizens. 11 would be honorable lo our country if the sequel of the same experiments should he countenanced by Lne patronage of our government, as they have hitherto been by those of France and Britain. Connected with the establishment of an University, or separate from it, might be undertaken the erection ol an astronomical 00- tervatory, with provision for me support of an astronomer, to be in cjiisliini attendance of observation upon- the phenomena of the heavens; and for the periodical publication of his observations It. is wiin no feeling ol pride, as an American, that the remnrk may lie made, that, on the comparatively small territorial surface of Kurope, there arc existing upwards ol one hundred and thirty of these liglil-housesol tiie skies ; while, throughout the whole A merit an hemisphere, there is not one. If we rolled a moment upon the discoveries, which, in the last four centuries, have been made in the physical constitution of the universe, by the means of these buildings, and ol observers stationed in them, shall we doubt of their usefulness to every nation f And while scarcely a year passes over our heads without bringing sonic* new astrono mic;*! discovery to light, winch we must fain receive at second hand from iwopu, are we not culling our.-.elves uif from the means of returning light lor light, win c we have neither observa tory uir observer upon our half ot the globe, and th*» eurm re- Volv*", in perpetual darkness to our uusearching eyeuf \V iic;i, 011 me doth ot October, 1791, the first President of the 1. cited ■'tales announced to Congress the result of tl ; first enu iiie ration of the inhabitants of tins Union, he informed them that the returns gave the pleating assurance that the po ulalionof the United •States bordered on four millions us persons At the dis tance of thirty years from that time, the Uiat enumeration, five y<- ‘rs since completed, presented u population bordering upon ten millions.
