expression of my feelings on assuming a charge so responsible and vast. In imitating their example, 1 tread in the footsteps of illustrious men, whose superiors, it is our happiness to believe, are not found on the executive calender of any country. Among them, we recogniz ; the earliest and firmest pillars of the republic, thos.i by w hom oar national independence w;is first declare d: him w ho, above all other?, contributed to establish it on the field of battle; and those v. hose expanded intellect and patriotism constructed, improved.
and perfected the inestimable, institutions u lder whiih we live. If such men, in the po- j
,.ion i now occupy, lelt memseive-i overwhelmed by a sense of gratitude for this, the highest of all marks cf their country's confidence, and by a consciousness of their inability adequately to discharge the duties of an otiue so difficult and exalted, how much more mut these considerations aiiect one, who can red on no sm h l.si s s for favor or forbearance. Unlike all who have preceded me, the revolution, that gave us existence as one people, was achieved at the period of my birth; and. w hih.t I contemplate w ith grateful reverence thai memorable event, I fee I that I belong to a l iter age, and that I may not expect my countrymen to weigh my actions w ith the same hind and partial hand. So sensibly, fellow-citizens, do those circumstances press themselves upon me, that I should not dare to enter upon my path of duty, did I not look for t'ac generous aid of those who will be associated with me in the various and co-ordinate branches cf the Government; did I not repose, with unwavering reliance, on the patriotism, the intelligence, and the kindness, o! a people who never vet deserted a pudic servant honesllv laboring in their cause; and above ali, did., not permit myself humbly to hope tor the sustaining suppoit ol an ever-watchful and benehcient Providence. To the confidence and consolation derived from these, sources, it would be ungrateful not to add those which spring from our present fortunate condition. Though not altogether exempt from embarrassments that disturb our tranquility at home and threaten it abroad, yet, in all the attributes of a great, happy, and
nourishing people, we stand without a pa rail

predicted. Latent and uncontrolable cause's ol dissolution were supposed to exist, even by the ttiso and good; and not only did unfriendly or speculative theorists anticipate for us the fate of past republics, but the fears of many an honest patriot over balanced his sanguine hopes. Look back on these forebodings, not hasl'-ly, but reluctantly made, and see how, in every instance tt ev l.ae com
plect! failed. An impei fee t experience, during the struggles of the revolution, was supposed to w arrant a belief that the people would not bear the taxation requisite to discharge an immense public debt already inclined, and to defray the necessary expenses of the Government. The cost of two wars has been paid, not only w ithout a murmur, but with unequaled nlaeiity.

1 I - I Tor myself, tb.erefore, I desire to declare, that the principle which will rann n.o in
i i r- I the high duty to which my country calls mc,j is a strict adherence to the letter and spirit! of the constitution, as it w as designed by I these who framed it. Looking hack to it as i a sacred instrument carefully, and not easily j framed; remembering that it was throughout a work cf concession and compromise; viewing it ns limited to national objects, regarding it as leaving to the pe ople and the States ali power r.ot explicitly parted with; 1 shall endeavor to prcsene, protect, and de fend it, by anxiously reft i ring to its provisions for di
rection in eve ry action. To matters of domestic concernment which it lias intrusted to the Federal Government, and to such as relate to our intercourse with foreign nations, I shall zealously devote myself; beyond those limits 1 shall never pass. To enter, on the occasion, into a further or more minute exposition of my views on the various questions of domestic" policy, w ould be as obtrusive as it is probably unexpected. Before the suffrages cf my countrymen were conferred upon me, I "submitted to them, with great precision, my opinions on all the most prominent of these subjects. Those opinions 1 will endeavor to carry out with my utmost ability. Our course of foreign policy has been so uniform and intelligible, as to constitute a rule of executive conduct, which leaves little to my discretion, unless, indeed, I were willing to run counter to the lights cf experience, and known opinions of my constituents. We sedulously cultivate the" friendship of all nations, as the condition most compatible with our welfare and the principles cf cur government. We decline alliances, as adverse to our peace. We desire commercial rel itions on equal terms, being ever willing to live a fair equivalent for advantages received. We endeavor to conduct oui intercourse with openness and sincerity, promptly avowing our objects, and seeking "to establish that mutual frankness which is as beneficial in the dealings of nations ns of men. We have no disposition, and ro rirbt. in mr.hlL.
