In proportion as man advances in life, and withdraws himself from maternal care, the passions god him-griefdraws tears from him, and gloomy thoughts possess his soul. His companions can no lon ger console him-his mother has not words sufficiently enticing to restore him to virtue. A stronger support becomes necessary to him; lie seeks a Being who will defend him from his own passions -if he find him not, he will perish, for God alone knows the profound myste ries of our hearts. Religious sentiments only prevent our fall. I say more. they elevate us and make us men. Very dif'erent from other aninals,who have received weapons and instict man can neither live,nor be eleva ted without morality and religion. His in tellect and his heart teach him, that there is a God, and in proportion as he banishes from his mind, this idea. lie loses his strength anti his greatness. Was it not at the moment, in which im piety reigned among the naiions. that Athens, Rome, and Babylon beheld the term of their power? They perished like bodies destroyed by licentiousness-like the fallen Angels of whom Scripture speaks, who no longer sostained by the All-Powerful, fell at once into the eter nal abyss. God has willed himself to be the sole defence of his most perfect work. He has bound man to himself, by the necissities of his heart, and the grandeur of his thoughtQ; he has made him strong by religion. and he has raised him from that abasement, in which he finds himself on earth, in giving him the power of living in the heavens, by faith and hope.

Barrin ger, delivered at the celebration of the anniversarY of the Declarution of Inde pnience, in Concord, N. C. Muy 20th, 1%s9. -Previous to and on the 20th of May 1775, the present coutty of Cabarras, as yon all know was a part of the old Coun y %f Mi'ecklenutir; and so continued till 1792. as therelore, this coutay was a con stintieut part of Mlecklenburg at that time and nas fully represented in her famoius 0o.1venttion (having not less, I believe, than one third of all the delegates.) and equal ly entitled to the hinors we this day ren der: so the observations whicb are made are intended to apply equally to both counties, between whom the only rivalry should be, which shall most appropriately commemorate the deed and mnost muccess fully maintain the principles it promul gated. In the early part of the year (1775) the British troops were stationed in tie city of Boston, and as that City had always heen distingttished for its etihusiasm in the cause of the colonlies, the eyes of our con; trynen wereunxionsly turned to the early cradle of republican liberty, itn lively ex pectattonof some hostile movement, that would bring the unsetted affiirs of the two countries to a crisis-and make up the issue of liberty or submission to be decided only by the God of battles. 1n Siay of that year. the then county of Mecklenburg alw ays conspicnous for its attachment to te Whig cause of the Rev olttion, and once honored by Cornwallis with the comp 1liment of b'wing lenounced as "the most rebellious County in Ameri ca," held detached meetings of the people itt the different neig-ihorhoods, at witt neighborhood meetitngs, (bomote of whieb are doubtless remembered hy the veteran% who sit before me.) the people dikcussed the g teral state of affairs, expressed their s. npathy for the conittion cause. and es perially for their sul'ering brethren in the city of Boston, int whose "hte were idenii fi&d the interests of all their Countrymen -asserted Iheir detertitination never tn submit to the exactions of the British Crown; and it support their* brethren in iherty, throtgh all the trials of their peril. otis situation. These rneetitcs and dis rusions, prompted by the love of liberty atnong the people themselves, - prepared them for the event of which we uow speak antd thi- (lay celebrate. Accordintly at order was issied by the Colonel Commatigdant of the Cotnty, directing every militia company to elect two delegates-antd to vest them th el litied powers for the general gnd and safety. This order met with a hearty re. sponse from the people. The delegates were elected as required, and met itt the ,own of Charlotte on the 19th of May. 1775. A remarkable coincidence occurred on that occasion. When the delegates were assetnhlol and in the performace of the high trtsts committed to their charge, greeted and curgetd on by the warm appro. hation oftheir asseibled counirvmen, ;t Express arrived announeittg tla-t the first hostile blow iad been struck in defence of liberty: that the follies of negoriation were ended: that the Ribien,, hari lecen passed: that the sw' ord was unsheathed aid its scabh rd thrown atway: and that tle blond -thefirst blood of American citizetns had bei'n shed on ite plains of Lexitigon aind tried aloud for ve zeance!
