Gen Voxm fjart lon leen Senior Major General of the State and waa for sereral years, Aajuwnx-ucnri.i.--- IJki onportHnities for forming correct opi- 7ikns thfreibre entitle whatever pe may advance on the subject to at least, a re- spectful consideration. ' If his opinions re rorrect it is important that their truth should be established : if erroneouj!; an op portunity is ofTered for exposing their fal- . srcR the Raleigh registeji. To the honorable the General Assembly cfthe. State of Worth-Carolina Gentlemen, ;. ;';? I hcrct)y , tender ycu my resignation ofihe office of Major General in the Militia of Kortb Carolina. - ; On this occasion I beg leave to offer to vour view some considerations in regard to the iviuiiia svnicu x urciu ui muui 11117 ncrtance to the best interests of the com rnunity. Exertions tordisoipline the Militia have been perseverirgly made for thirtyyears. Instructions have heen given and penal ties inflicted. Laws and regulations have - multiplied, without end. ' Every where men of zeal and talents, impelled by the powerful motives of public interest and individual distinction, have afforded their nid and what lias hen the result ? The Militia ore now, in point of efficiency, ex actly as they were wbentbce mighty et forrs commenced, and thirty years more r,f experience would onlycgo to prove that the proud spirit of freemen is not to be broken down into the machinery which constitutes the efficiency of a regular ar my. Nor is it, in my opinion, in any point of view desirable that it should be. Bun ker's Hill, King's Mountain and New-. . Orleans will fcrever attest that the ardor of patriotism, and the regard for individu ialxharactertbat is so dear to honorable 'minds, will give an impetus to a Militia force that will overwhelm the frigid order of regular troops. If warfare is protract ed, discipline will in due time supply the place of this resistless but transient ardor. And I hazard nothing by the assertion, that one week in actual service, Avill do . more for discipline than the whole life of ' a man who is dragged from his familyN half a dozen times in the year to expose his health to the elements, his aukward- iiess to the public gaze, and his morals to jj the contamination of electioneering treats.

No substantial benefits are obtained, and the injur)' inflicted upon property and morals is Incalculable. ! f I would, therefore, take the liberty re spectfully to recommend, as a measure eminently calculated to promote the pub lic weal, that the Militia be restricted to muster but ence in the year, and then merely, to continue their organization and to bring officers and men to a knowledge of each other." These observations are the result of a deliberate judgment, formed with all the lights' afforded by twenty-four years of experience in different offices in the mili-tia,--on muster grounds in the halcyon I days of peace, and in the. tented field in ' the stormy season of war. None will con sider them as' intended to apologize for : any former deficiency of zeal in mjself. I enteted the Militia service with the most sanguine expectations of introducing reform, and when in the Legislature, my most strenuous exertions to promote the same object, were sustained by the confi dence of success., But the sober lessons of experience have, taught me the futility cf all such hopes and attempts, not only here, but in every state where I have had a knowledge cf . the Militia. .. In peace: to prepare for war" is a good maxim, but at all times to incul ca$e,the principles and promote the arts of peace," is a better. The expence of the means misapplied to promote the first object, wculd, if properly directed, do much to advance both: and from the en . lightened and liberal principles which are prevailing, and from better estimates be ing now made than heretofore of all the cbjects'of human ambition, I look forward itn pleasing anticipations to the more improved condition of tsuman society in all its relations to thejessened frequency and mitigated horrors ci war, and tp the multiplied embellishments and increased wjoyments of peace, .... . In tenderiug this resignation, which will .Prohabl be the Jast official act cf my life, ' J cannot withhold an, expression of the cp sense cf gratitude 1 feel for the ho- ' Bf? Legislature; and the constituted .' . aQlhorities oi the State havp". hrktnnA ':ame' escially -for the office I now I ikIod, and for gtYiug me in virtue of it, the commnnd of the-military force of the State; when called into service at an in teresting period of the late war affording me thereby an opportunity of demonstrat ing my zeal for the public Welfare.
