Journal of the Honorable Senate, of the State of New Hampshire: At Their Session Holden at the Capitol in Concord, Commencing Wednesday, June 8, 1839 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Journal of the Honorable Senate, of the State of New Hampshire: At Their Session Holden at the Capitol in Concord, Commencing Wednesday, June 8, 1839
The Militia of this State deserve your fostering care they are truly a meritorious class of citizens, and richly deserve encourage ment. Large standing armies being incompatible with our repub lican institutions, our reliance for protection and defence, must be in a great measure, upon citizen soldiers. I am confident that a degree of military ardor now exists, among the militia, which, suitably encouraged and directed would give this arm of our defence the degree of strength and perfection so desirable under a government like ours.
It is made by the constitution of this State, your duty to cherish the interests of literature and the sciences. The school tax annually raised by law, together with the accruing Literary Fund, afford in most instances, ample means for the support of our primary schools. Although our present system of free schools is well calculated for extensive usefulness, yet 1t ts sus ceptible of great improvement. This subject occupied the at tention of the last Legislature, and though' not finally acted upon will at the present session receive that consideration which its importance demands. So intimately connected with the preser vation of our liberty and happiness is the dissemination of useful knowledge, and so great a barrier is it to vice and immorality, that it is surely wise to encourage and promote education among all classes of the rising generation.
