CewTLVMEw: Under our admirable eontuiution. and the preaent wia admin ia'rationol tbe General Government, we can sincerely congratulatt one another In the prosperity and harmony In ovtry pan of our grest political onion. In re gard to our national interests foreign or domestic, there is nothing lotmprove ana notnmp in censure, i pe tnerai expression of approbation, which all par tita are constrained to make of the pre sent administration, la an evidence of the wisdom and a proud comment on the jus tice and imprtilit of our enlightened Chief-Magistrate. His eqnanimity and liberal views, has teconriled the two great contending parties, diffusing throughout the Republic, mildness, concord and bro therhood. His strict adheranre to and democratic construction or the Federal Constitution, have pien another happf epoch to the Republic, of progressive wealth, reputation and individual happi ness. The period of his service form a proud and interesting pne in our national hintorv and an exquisite feas to the scrtniniiing eve of futuritv. This pleasing view of the Admi"i'raion of .ir illustrious Piesident, mciurrs a con fiilent hope, that we. the citizens of North-Caroliiia, and of the UHun also, will unaniniouslv support his suc&Vssor, sacrificing ouLaoimosities, and the asper ities of party teal, at the utter of concord, and fraternize with undivided strength, in defence of the constitution of our coun- try. This cheering hope, Gentlemer,lister States boasting of millions appro- cherishes a firm belief, tb-t faction, or i's pri.ted to that fund $ and that well organ baleful influence;' will be excluded from'ued little Republic, Connecticut, proudly our deliberative councils, and that we will, dispassionately, act like brothers of the same family in pursuing the general good. I may congratulate the Legislature, and the friends of Internal Improvement generally, in this state, that the works in the Cape-Fear River, both below and above the town of Wilmington, have been attended, to far, with signal auccess ; a success whch must fully equal the ex pectations of .the most sanguine, when we consider theldiflicullies which have been encountered in their progrMSt-and-thal all worka of the nature of those' at the Flats below Wilmington, must have time to complete their effect. From the best information, if' may be, safely affirmed, that all doubta of their ultimate success, are at an end. There is, at present, no difficulty in the navigation, to any ship ping which could come up to the port, previous to the erecting of the embank ments; and by the mere force of the current, without the aid of drags which were intended to be used, the channel is evidently deepening. I he immense im portance oi this work to the state, and its evident practicability, is a strong induce trtent. to determine us never to lose sight of, or abandon it, until fully accomplished. Jifr.

Out I most confiden'ly trust anrUlicve, the lime is not far distant, when lie Roan oke, that proud monarch of st'rams in this State, the Yadkin, the Ntuse, the l ar, and every other "Hirer of respects- Me magnitude, will receive the necessary improvements, to'rcnder them Complete- If jljt)le, and kiMindantly sroductive of wealth to the community, ut more epci.,r n their immediate tenants. j In oi tier to render our navigable s'rfamt t more extensive axxl general use, and to carry the work of improve- m-m to everv man's dxr, (he LrgUU- tme win, i presume, never oeriect tnat object of universal interest, the improve ment of Koids. (Jur Rivers, Creeks and Canils, are the great veins esd anerira of the Sute ; but they are of comparative inutility, if we neglect to keep open those lesser channels, or Roads, by which sus tenance la conveyed to every part of the great body. The facilities of internal commerce, are so Intimately allied to the moral condition of the people, and have t A a so great an innuence on tne personal comfort, wealth and intelligence of our cititens, and, consequently on our state wealth and general aggrandtcement, that it has been.whh the deepest Interest and seal that I have uniformly Invited the at tention of the General Assembly to that subject since I have been in office. 1 he encouragement which the legis lature has lately given to Agriculture, augurs well for its advancement in this State. Alteady have numerous Agricul tural f cxieties been formed and organi sed, which promise much for its improve ment. In your deliberations, therefore, the people may confidently espeet, that this their first interest? the foundation of their wealth and happiness, will be ever present i and that all your measures, in nv w.iv related to it, will have a view to it promotion, It rruy not be amiss, Centlemen, to say somewhat on the subject of Literature- It is unquestionably of vital im portance to the respectability of the State, as well as individual prosperity- and happiness. But I have harped on it so olt en, (ami as ouen, I presume, have my predecessors,) that I now touch the chord with almost hopeless expectations and frigid indifference. But whilst I see our declaring, that her every son and.daugh ter can read and write. By' the contrast our policy forms with their regulations, . . . . i am irresiatiDiy consiraineu to invite your attention to the improvement of the minda of the rising generation of North Carolina. Our Fiscal Department is in a flour ishlng situation j our Treasury abounding in gold and silver, or its adequate ..value, collected from the people, and not one cent appropriated to the improvement of the mines of their children. I mean those who hav-wot themesas-tra fiord their sons and daughters' liberal educations- Surely then, we cannot, conaia tent with good policy, hesitate to create a fund, that will assist the parents of eve ry denomination, to initiate their off spring in elementary rudiments of learn ing. Knowledge, well and generally dif fused amongst every clasa of our citizens, is the best securities of their constitution al rights and liberties. It will enable them to resist all innovations of Dema gogues or ambitious men, whose views to the constitution are inimical oi sub versive. The people are industrious and patriotic they cheerfully subscribe to the necessary demands of the state upon their purse, without a murmur. They would moat gtadly receive, and greatfuriy acknowledge yoer patroetf e for the Im provemeni of their dmlties. They have a right fully to anticipate your tWerine rare, and I csnrmt douU but thst the ad j r'ay e tfrf: isask frore, track uii.iurcs, wm claim your wise and wen digested liberality towards there. Our Criminal Code, sppcsrt Id rae tp require a isviuon and the aarloos dtLb- tredoii ef tbe Genera! Asaembly. I wwuia reapcciiuuy recommend the enure aboiUloti of whipping and cropping j and in their stcsd a substitution of labor. A former Legislature distinguished itself oy soousrung imprisonment for debt. whUb was justly considered a relic of leusal barbarity and oppression. Crop ping and whipping are among the few which still blacken our Statute Book, and which Mir prejudices still refuse to psrt with. I would also respectfully suf (est to the Legislature, whether it Would not be eipedient for the Jailors In the saver coentles In tbe State, to enforce labor on si pesrons Imprisoned (or crimes, or on charges of crimes, for their jiU sinenses icax. nc ooieci ei imnrimnm-n! would, in this way, be more fullv answer. r cd, and a large sum of money anovaUt saved to the public. I he great number of eleves recently emancipated in the Untied States, and thrown on Ihe community, without pro perty or regular employment, hat con strained a considerable portion of these miserable people to emigrate to the Island of llayti for protection and the blcssirgv of equsliiy. Also many free persons of rotor, who have never lasted the bitter cup of slavery, have visited that island. It is suggested, with much ctida dence, whether it would not be espedi ent to prevent a return of those emigrants to our State, as a view of our own safety and tranquility ems to require this pro ni'Hiory measure. The commissioners appointed aereea- hly to an act of the last session of the General AenefWWj, to purchase, on be half of the State, the claims of certain Cherokee Indians to reservations of land in our Cherokee territory, have effected a treaty With the claimants, by which they agreed to relinquish their claims and remove from the lands. The Trea ty, which it is hoped wHI be satisfactory to the General Assembly, is herewith bid before your honorable bodv, together with the report of the Commissioners.
