With the increased trade and commerce of our State, under a separate government, the post-office would easily support itself, although' our mail facilities might be greatly multiplied. But we have allowed to begin the system.
Many, doubtless, u ill think too small a sum for a military establishment. We cannot think so. For many years the United States army did not exceed men. It is, at present, not This can scarcely be called a slanding army in so large a Commonwealth. It is very sure that the wise framers of our Republic, carefully excluded from our system a standing army. They saw the danger and expense, as well as the general inutility, of such an institution in a country like this. They supposed - and it is a principle which lies at the bottom of our government - that citizen soldiers would answer all purposes of defence and protection and wars of conquest and invasion never, perhaps, entered the heads of these wise and honest men. They, at all events, deemed them highly dangerous to Republican institutions. Excluding then, a regular army, they introduced a small military force to take care of our military posts, stores, as, and to protect our frontiers from the depredations of the Indians. Time has proved the wisdom of their design. There can be no more dangerous foe to liberty than a large, unemployed, well-trained soldiery. Let us not forget the wise lessons of our virtuous fathers. We want no standing army in time of peace. If our borders be invaded, our citizens, with their strong sinews and stout hearts, by the aid of the officers we may always have among us, can soon be turned into disciplined troops, prepared, at all times, to defend themselves against any forces that can get foothold in their territory.
A few hundred men, therefore, to take care of our military stores, arsenals, &c., would be all we should need. Twenty thousand dollars would cover the expenses. But we should enlarge and nurture our present Military Academies, as schools for Officers Eighty thousand dollars would certainly do for this!
