ucation, and the education of the peo
ple, too. is the hope, not of our im
provement only, bat of our existence.
It stands with us. in .'lie rd
every thing that makes other govern
ments strong. It stands in (he place
of the establishment, of the army,
and the sacred throne; it is Ihe order,
and defence, and power of the nation
We look upon this nation us mak
ing a momentous and perilou experi
ment on free and popular institutions;
nor is it lo be thought, that the ex
periment has yet gone beyond' the
point of danger. It is certain, and it
cannot he too i.fien repented, that
such institutions as ours can have n
permanent standing, but on-tbe basis
nf knowledge-and irtue. The char
ier of our. privileges is our national
character It Ws this, that bought
th'un when our strength was "hot in
ninews, hut in brave hearln: in the
pirit of nin. lhat nere fesiived lo
cable, perhaps as it is unpopular. Or,
to state the case more truly. ineet
among us, the feelings of the, peoplo -are.
represented in ih government
the government baa no mcfinalion to
do it. "
The other means of prevention, and
the-only-one, it appears, which is now
open to us, is to educate, to entig.ttQ,
to exall the public mind tfn w ledge
reading, must supply those resources
the mind, which shall render it in
dependent of meaner excitements.
For why does a man resort to tfJP a'm
:oxieaiing"draugln? Commonly, be
cause he iiunhappy without it; he
wants something to excite or to enter
tain him. lie sits down at home for
an evening, and it is dull to him; he
goes aoroud fur relief and trw,
finds a re ief which is his ruin v0w
