terized the leislalionof the last four
teen years, at'd the inavked advancement
made in those interests which are so es
sential to the wealth, happinessand gen
eral prosperity of the people. Wasted
by war and robbed by legislation inspired
by men who came among us with no
motive except to prey upon the rerau-int
we had ielt, tlie State, in 1870. found
herself burdened with a debt, the princi
pal and interest ot which amounted to
$41,788,710; this in part was made up of
wnai was Known iu special tax bonds.
Issued in fraud and sold at a price which
should have placed purchasers on their
guard, these bonds, in tho estimation ot
the people, carried with them no-'morai
obligation, and were repudiated by a
subsequent legislature, . ,
l his action was afterwards submitted
to the votes of the people, and was by
them overwhrtlmiiixly mnstained. Thu
ohhdebt bf tho Slate was $12,727,000.
Unable to meet this without burdening
th people in their impoverished condi
tion, neyond theirability,thelegislature of
io, otwr areiuuy- considering- tbe
value of the taxable property of the
Stale, called together their ct editors
and, in the spirit of an equitable
compromise, ottered them tho Jarm-st

per cent, to the amount of $2,803,796.23,
exempt fiom taxation, were, issued in
exchange for the "old, aniountisr to
$9,627,445, and when fully arranged, as I
ber 1877, there was disbursed forscbools
$239,Uf4.a2. --TUis sum Increased .each
successive year until in 1831, we receive
for r.ch.ol purposes $313,040.16 of which
sum 623,4-t0.93 was actually disbursed,
leaving iu the hands of tlfe county
treasurers the sum of $189,005 23. to be
disbursed hereafter. In 1S77 the num
ber of children of school ajje we're 403,
209, tho number enrolled 98,704. In
' 1883 tho whole number, of school ae,
was 466,678, at school 250,644. ' In 1869
the value of school property in the State
was notiirag. jh tne value was
$143,569.10. In IS83 the value was
$390,008.50. Tl number of schools,
white and colored are 6,000, of this
number, there are about 4,0QQ while and
2,000 ooiored. la 1876 there were no
normal schools for- the education a id
training of teachers. Now there is one
at Chapel Hill for the whites and one ab
JFayelteville for the blacks. In addition
to these, eight normal schools have been
established over the State, four for each
race and $S,0QQ annually appropriated to
their support. Ij 1S77 the sum 11.515.-
97 wns paid for school houses, la 1883
there was paid for the tsaine pqrpose
$74,712.37. In 1868 and '69 the State
taxes amounted to SO cents on tho $100

This last result was brought about bv a

accomplish these results, the uost liiid
economy was practiced, the number of
officers was cub downfall salaries were
reduced to sums manv of which are now
doubtless too low and all annroiviatioiis
for ordinary erppnscs of the government j
were conuneu wumn tne limit of w:iat
was strictly necessary. Such a showing
of progress and economy on the part of
the Stale in the last 14 years must affoYd
the highest gratitude to every true North
Carolinian and at the same tima is-most
honorable to iho Jsislature and 'Exec
utive officei-s who aided in its acoom-
plishme.it," -But as wo stand out to-day
on tnis advanced ground, we should not
forget 'that there is yet much to accom
plish to place our S,'ate in the high posi
tion which she is entitled to hold and
must hold by -virtue of. her developed
and Undeveloped resources, among the
most prosperous States' of the Union.
There is much in the past to encozi-a-e
us notwithstanding our reverses and dif-
ucuiues, and I hope and believe that he
who shall stand where ' I now sin.if
ei'-ht years from to-dav to be inauurat-
ed as you,' Chief Magistrate,-will be able
to say tbat our advauce in that time hxs
been equal to If not greaser than that
made in -the eight years just past. Wo
cannot afford to recede or stand still. Tlie
world moves and we must move witn it.

We must add to the number and qualifi

provides for compulsory education. If
we can once Infuse into our people a
spirit of educat ion and so manufacture
public sentiment in its behalf as to in.ike
it a reproacn to every parent who.rerbs
es to bend Ills children to school and to
the coitstitutiqn of theState and of thejtion
United Slates. Tho Jdtate constitution f empl;

constitution of the United Stales is equal
ly emphatic. These declarations are in
accord with the will of the people of all
the States, and will be sustained to the
: er.tcut of their power. .All fears, if any
jOii the part of the colored people, that
mere condition may be changed in this
regard are", wholly groundless. . They
have been suggested by bad men for a
wic'fed puppone. . ;
Hut stantiing ffei-e to-day a-i J do in the
capacity of your chief magistrate, with
the constitution of the Slate and of the
United States in my hands, I declare in
therfiaajeof my State and hej people
that slavery and iuvOluntary servitude
within her borders does mt and can
never exist, except for crime. These
people then are not only free, bdt they
mve uuw uuu win eonunue u nave as
long as the government lal, a voice in
its control and manitgeiuent. To the
end that their action be intelligent they
musL ne educated, and me elate and
geueral government are alike deeply in
terested iu its- accomplishment. I be
lieve that it is the duty of the general
government out of the large surplus or
hand to contribute to this purpose. It
is Giiitl however, that there is no warrant
in the constitution for such action.
There is qo warrant in the constitution
for a large surplus , in the treas
ury, it is a principal conceded by all
that no more money should be collected
from tho people t han is snOfcient to pay
all the necessary and legitimate expen
ses A the government. In 1S37 we had
a large surplus ovha-td, it encouraged
dishonesty, extravagance and wnste,and
its disposition therefore became a neces
sity. ' Congress hesitated and had grave
doubts as to what should be done with
it. After much : discussion j and great
deliberation, without any express eon
st-itutioual warraut, as all admitted, they
loaned it to the Slates to bo used for
ssnool purposes, and this was the
beginning of our school fund in North
Carolina, l here was no warrant for
raising it, none for giving it away, yet it
was liable to bn stolen Or wasted if not
returned to the States. They cut the
goraian Knot by a loan to the States.

may not be expedient to attempt all this
