Thc Govemor transmitted to both Houses ol the Legis lature, by his Private Secretary, Mr. John K. Canij)bell, the following MHSSACr.z To the Honorable the General Msemhhj of North-Carolina: Ge.mtlemen— Although we have contin ued, during the past year, in the unin terrupted enjoyment of all our civil and religious privileges, yet, the chastening liand of an all-wise Proyid*nce has borne 1 cavily on particular sections of our State. Whether the injury sustained bv the late untoward seasons, is of magni tude sullicient to merit your interference, is a question submitted entirely to your discretion. Relieving it ijniversally admitted, that the existence of free Governments de- depends npou the virtue and intelligence of the great body oi‘ the people, and that these arc also tlie sources of individual comfort and happiness, I shall not con sume your time in repeating arguments so often adduced, to show the necessity of difi’using the benefits o.** education, a- mong the poorer class of our fellow citi zens. But permit me to call your atten tion to a clause in our Stale Constituiinn, which enforces the obligation of giving to this subject your serious considera tion. It is tiiis—“A school or schools bhull be established by the Legislaturt of this State, for the convenient msti uctlon of youth, with such salaries to the mas ters, paid by thc public, as may enable them to instruct at low prices. All u^-c- fu! learning shall be duly enrouragcd and promoted in one or more Universi ties.” The latter bi anch of this consti tutional injunction has long since been complied with, by your predecessors.— We have a University in a prospeious condition, with competent funds, but as to the former and no le^s imf)>itant branch conrerning schools, it is to be la- metited, that from the formation of the CotistiiutioTi, I mil the last Session of the General As‘jeml)ly, (a period of forty- nine years) nothing wliatever has been done. 'I'lie last Legislature commenced the impoi'tant work, but if that begin ning is not sustained and pursued, the present generaiioti may pass away, bi- fore any thing eflVrtual is accomplished. Many enlightened persons believe, that it is more diflicuh ior an individual in ordinary circuriistances, to obtain for his child, at this time, the common rudi ments of education, than it was at the period when onr Constitution was adopted. 'I’liis increased difiiculty for orginates in part from the increased den^and which the exigencies of Gov ernment have made upon thc resour ces of individuals, and the enhancement of the necessaries of subssitence. It ap pears, therefore, peculiarly just and pro per, that the Slate should contribute somewhat to ’he diminution of that bur then, which, in part, it has created; and v\hilst it exacts and expects obedience and support from the citizens to its laws and instiiutiotis, it should give them the opj)oriiinity to :tppreciale their privile ges aiid imjji-ove tlieir condition. The least relleclioti wili satisfy us, that read ing, writing, and the common lulesoi’ AriUimetic, are highly esseniial ‘u tlie health) action of our go\ernment, i'ound- ed a^ it is, upr^: the supremacy, and ex ecuted by tiie agency ol the peoj)!e;—and they u)K|iiestionably contiibuie nxii-e ii:rg('ly to the individual Ijeneiit aiul moi- alilV of tlie body of the people, thuii the branches of severe science usually taught in our established semina’ i»‘s. Wluls , iij)on this siibject, I beg h-ave to remai k, that the Co!.s:iti;tion itself, in the section Ik foie recited, has not only imjjosed the obligation, but has als(j suggested an im- por.tatit means foi’ the ext'cuiion of the injunction. The benefits resulting from a well reg ulated and proijerly conducted systent of Intertiiil Iniprovtirnents, in a country like, ours at e too aj>parent to require ma ny remarks to jiiove their importance.— Lot us, for insiani e, eonline ourselves to the liniils of Noiih-Caroiina, and nun k !ier situution at tliis tinte. We all ktunv, that in j)articular sections of the State, the greatest distress is at j)resont appre- hetideii anioiig the poorer class of our ! follow cili7.eiis*,fiom the deliciency oi'ilie various -rops, springing fi(;rn sources which it is unnecessary to investigate.— We also know, thui in other sections, the u'-ual prKhiciioris were never inori* abundant. I'rom the great vatieiyof soil and t iiiiiaie, may not this state (if tilings often occur.^ Let nie af-k, thet,, whaiisthe propt r r* niedy for such evil.s? Can there he -Hiiy other answer, given, t'K.t. — I'.icilitate he iiii tcourse betwrcii tl.e difVeieiil sections oi the Stui' ? In o- tlicr nvr.l', o].'cn your v^'atvr course:'. repair your old roads and make new ones —make them, what they should be,cheap and convenient mediums of social inter course. Then the failure of crops in some few counties, would not have the eflect of thinning a population, already too much scattered and diminished. liut the redundant fullness of some parts miglu conveniently he drawn oiV, to fruc tify and supply less fortunate situations. J'here is every reason to believe, that at the present time, grain and other neces sary articles would not command more than their ordinary prices, were it not for the great difiiculty of transportation. Those who are fortunately the venders (;f produce this year, may !)e pnichaser.^ the next. It behooves the peoj)le of every part of the Slate, maturely t(* cottsider this subject. It is frankly admitted, that money has been, perhap'^, unneces sarily (xpended, at the commcncemen; of this undertaking, liut is not this the fate of ail human undertakings, without the henelits of experience ? Is there an individual who for the first time, has o- pptied a plantation or built iiim a house, who is not, at its close-, convinced, that he has committed many errors, and ex pended tunch money uselessly. Wl»ui then would be ‘.hought of the reasoning which should gravely conclude, tha those things which add so mwch to our comfort and convenience, were useless, because errors might be committed. 1 do not advocate, fur less wish, the pub lic money to be unneci’ssarily expended, when it can be avoided. But u prudent though unfortunate nianagemeut may t>e lam(;nted, although it sh(juhi tiot In l.'iam- ed. When it is coiisit!er» d, that there is a r?ady fund created (the Ciiei-nkee Lands) and our fellow-citizens uUI nm p’ohably be burthened with addiiiunal taxes, it is most respecilully suhmiittd, whether a judicious system of Internal Improvement should njt be prosecut 1 (‘d ? j In connection with this subject, it may I be well to mention, that under the pro- I visions of several acts, prescribing the niode of survejing and selling the lands I ac()uired by trt uty from the Cherokee 1 Indians, four sales at public auction have j l)een had, and the most valuable lands i!is])osed of. It is i)elievd, however, that the lands remaining unsold, are of sunicient value, to be well worthy the at ^ tent ion of the Legislature. It is sub- ■ mitted to your discretion, to determine ' what flisposition shall be made of them. It is obviously the interest of the Slate, 1 and more immediately of the citizens of I that section of the State, that they should i foithwith he brought into market, since ; their value is continually diminisliing, 1 by trespassers, who destroy the timber ; and wear out the soil, and who can ; scarcely be presumed to make good citi- j zens or (juiet neighbors. Whether it I will be advisable to have the unsurveyed lands undis[)osed of, oftercd at public aUctioti, or open an entry oflice under suitable regulations, are subjects which Kwill properly claim yuur consideration Before we ta.ke leave of this subject, you will pardon me for again calling youi attention to the reclaiming of out Sw amp lands. It is believed to be a su!)ji-cA, in which the Slate is deeply inten sted. II' the State have tlie j>ower of regulating their own internal police, if they' hav‘ the power of instiiutinn pi ecautions lot thc i)i-eservaiion of t'.e health atid liv s of thiMr citizens, can theie be a doulit of llie |)ower to act upon this subject f V\ liat can stay the tide of einigialion, iiovv flowing to the west, but ihe improve- i,f our own State ? 'I'here can be but little doubt, tUat the undertakin.g would rather directly and greaMy enhance the present revenue, while it would aug ment the agiicultural resources of the Slate, improve the health of our t I'izens, and relii ve (yur territory IVom a rnelan- rhulv l)lot on itsgeographieaUppearanc(. As to tlif particular wfjiks which have been cai l ied on, during the past year, iheir progress, kc. will be detailed in an other communication. Some of our rno^-'t enliglitened fellow- ritiz-ns are of opinion, that the criminal code is siuscepti!>h' of improvement. This would be attained, by leaving it discretionary with the proper jurisdic- lioiis, to substitute eitlu;r the tread-mill, (;r wotk-hoiise, instearl of the present mcjfles ol puriis'mieiit, ft^i- petty oFFences, by fine, iiiipi isoiiinent and stripes. The asset tier, can scarcely be doubled, tliat in the nei*^li!)orhood of our towns and villa- wiihin tlie last few years, the cotn- missit/ji ol'ct imes is much more frcfiucnt thun ionnrrly. The [)i-esent modes of ])unishinent, i-spccially by iniprisotiment, whicii is most gt'nerally inflicted, pre sent feeble, very feeble checks to their mul/iplication, and tend but little, eitli-r to an ainetidment of tiie culpi it’s morals, or tu i)ro;lnce a wholesome influence on other V. rotig-!loers. At the samt time, the general itr-iidveticy of such (dl'enderN, heavii) ac( uinu!ales llu c'larges of pru- scrutiuris. upon the ditt’iM-ynt. ooanUe?. One of the present modes of punishrricnt that of whipping, especialiy wh^re mean-; ness enters into the commission of the crime, I esteem a valuable feature in our* criminal code. The propriety of extt tid ing it to some misdem.eanors, at present |)unishable by fine and impritonnienU particularly In thc case of irauduleetljr trading with slaves, is respectfuli> sub mitted to your consideration. I dMibt not, that thc use of the tread mill and work-house, w here «nch establishments were found practicable, and were w'ell organized and condut ted, would contri- .bute largely to the efiicient administra tion of criminal justice, to the reforma tion of (iflenders, and sensibly ditiiiiiisli the ciiarges of prosecu’ion, by thc pro fits of the establishmetit.s. The pi-( sent iiuKle of con.pensaimg our prosecuting- f Oivers, app«‘ars to me tjbjectionablc. is it not the policy and duty oi’every wise and liberal governn«eni, as well to pro tect the innocent as to punish the guilty? Can it he right and just, that the com pensation of these genth-men, should, in a great degree, depend upon convic tion ? Is it not their intertsi to convict, whether the accused be innoi eni or guil ty? And, however respectable, stiil .hey are but rn(-n ! liable to all the weaK.ness “ which flesh is heir to,” ami capaide of being influenced by all the considera tions, which influence humanity. V\ ould It not be prefei-abie, that liicy should en-' ioy fixed salaries, thus removing all temptation to persecution, and make iheii* present fees payable to the county iras- tees and State 'i'leasury, as.iii.-'., sc- inents ? That there ure other delects in uu! judiciary system,cannot senox be doul)ted, but whether they are ol ihat des( ripton, which recjuire legislativt' in let ference, or such as are incident t*> all human institutions, you alone aie com- p tent to decide. T herewith transmit you a communi- aiion f/’om V^ermonl, enclosing a reso lution of their General Assembh, for your concurrence. It is,in substance, that slavery is an evil to be deprecated l)y a free and enlightened people ; and, declaring that their CJeneral Assembly will concur in any measures, which may be adopted by the general government^ for its abolition in the U. S. that may be consistent with the rights of the peo ple and the general harmony. This is an additional instance, indicating, that Stalesj like individuals, may fall into the common.error of believing, that they better understand, and with more skill and to greater advantage could manage the concerns of others, than they display in their own transactions. The reasoa is obvious : They take but a partial and itn|)erlecl view of another’s affairs, with-' f)iii the advantage of being possessed of ihe whole ground. May not this be ihc situation of the non-slave holding States and can they not, vithout transcending' “ ihe mcjdesty of nature,” fairly presume^ that this subject, in all its bearings, is fully understood in the South f It be comes every Slate and people, to be pc- «niiarly alive to every circumstance, which may threaten their existence; and to provide every precaution, against any erwetgency to which they may be expos ed. I repeat but a common truism, but one appreciated by every wise people,— “ that peace is the lime to prepare for war.” From foreign force, or internal insurrection, we arc indeed protected by constitutional provision. Biii it does not become us, to neglect out- resources or (jverlook the peculiai ity of our silii jiion, in common with a few other States, ar ising from the diversity of our jiopula- tion. We do not entertain any feminine apprehensions of danger. Bui tl e frcr- (juetit and misguided prooeedin'rs ^f In- (livlduals,-societies and Slates,'in tither sections of our country, relative to mis question, demand from us a sle» ( less vi;.;ilanLe. These unauthorised, unjujtifi- able interferences wiih so delicate a t.>,jic, is the raore to be regretted, as tlu,y may induce the Slates concerned, from h due regard to their highest inieresi, kj ip- crease »he severity of their policy to wards this jioriioti of th(‘ir popuij’ion ; to curtail existing privileges and for bear future iminunities, which humanity might suggest and prudence sanction, 'i’he history of this State will shew, that our laws have been gradually liberalized in their provisions, operating on 'his class of our community, and tlieir do mestic administralirn has been ameiior- atcd in a corresponding degree. But if the relations su!)sistin;j between masters aiid slavt s, are not to be left to the unl)i- asr.cd operations of our own synipathies, jtiMice and discretion j if inflammatory doctrines arc now to be sraticred through our land, by foreign hands; ii may wel! be doubled, whether our attention mav not be more properly turned from the consideration of_plans of amelioratiMM, to a question of deeper magnitude—the pt-e- trvaiion of ourselves and eounii v, fVi.Ja itu-.urrcclion.ti y movemcnis, ttuough an increased rcs'-i ictioQ, gt leasts" by &
