Oeilaiii danger was foretold lionv the ex tension of our territory, Ihe multiplication of States, and the increase of-population. Our system was supposed to be adapted on ly to boundaries comparatively narrow. These have bi-en widened tieyond conjee lurr, Iu-! iiirners of our confetfetacy are alieaciy doubled; and fne numbers oi our people are inctt-dihly augmented The alleged causes of danger have long surpass ed aulieip-ition, but none of the consequen ces have followed. The power and iiitlu ence ol Ihe republic have risen loa height obvious to ill mankind; respect for its au thority wis n it more apparent at Us ancient, than it if at US present limits; new and 111 exhaustible sources ol general prosperity have been oened; ihe effects of dtstai.ee h ive been averted by the inventive genius of our people, developed und fostered by the spuit o our institutions; and the en larged vanity aud amount of interests, pro ductions, and pursuits, have strengthened the chain of mutual dependence, and form ed a rirclo of mo ml benefits, too apparent ever to be overlooked. In justly balancing the powers of Ihe Federtl and State authorities, difficulties nearly insurmountable arose at the outset, and subsequent collinotis were deemed in evitable A aid these, it was scarcely hclieted possible thai a acheinc of Govern ment, so-omplex in construction, could remain iimrrjured." Fi"" l"no to time em barransiiieuts have certainly occurred ; but how just is ihe confidence of future safely imparled by the knowleoge that each in surcetituoii has been happily removed. Overlooking partial and temporary evils as insepa rable from the practical operation of all human institutions, and looking only to the general result, every patriot has rea son trt be sati'fieif. Wuile the Federal Government lua successfully performed iu appropriate functions in relation to foreign affairs, ana" concerns evidently national, that of every State has remarkably improv ed in protecting and developing local inter ests and individual welfare ; and if the vi brations of authority have occasionally tended loo much towards one or llie oilier, it m unquestionably certain tSat the ulti mate operation ol the entire system has been lo strengthen all the existing institu tions, and to elevate our whole country iii.prusperity and renown. ..... The last, perhaps the create!, of the prominent sources of discord and disaster supposed to I'ttk in our political condition, was the institution of domestic slavery. Our forefathers were ilerply impress.-. I Willi the delicacy of this auhjuct, an I tin y treated 11 with a forbearance so evidently vise. th;it, it) spite of every sinister forebu 1 ling, it never, until llie present period, j L'isiiirbed the tranquility of our common 1 co'iniry.

We have seen tune gradually expel every uu favutahle foieboduig, aud our constitution surmount every adverse circumstance, dreaded at the outset as beyond control. I'reaeul exciU'iiicnt will, at all tiim.-s mag nify present dangers ; but true philosophy must teach us thai none more threatening than the past can remain lo be overcome; and we ought, for we have just reason, to .'iiertain an abiding confidence in th- true form, character, and spirit in winch they were esiaoliahcd, they are abundantly ade quate to preservo to us a;i I our children the rich blessings already derived iroui ihein ; to make our beloved laud, lor a thousand geiiertitiiins, that rhoaen spot where happiness spiins from a perfect e quality of political rights. For myself, then lure, I desire to declare that the principle that will govern ine in the high duty lo which my country call me, is, a strict adherence to the letter and spirit of the constitution, as il was design ed by those who framed it.
