Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Speech of Charles Naylor, of Pennsylvania, on the Bill Imposing Additional Duties as Depositaries, in Certain Cases, on Public Officers: Delivered in the U. S. House of Representatives, October 13, 1837
Sir, it is the glory of the Northern institutions that they give to every man rich, high and low, the same fair play. They place the honours, emoluments ai tions of the country before him and say go, run your race for the prize, the reward shall encircle the brow of the most worthy. Thus it is that every one feels and knows that he has a clear field before him, and that with industry, prudence and per severance, he can command success in any honorable undertaking. He knows that' his industry is his own; his efforts are his own and that every blow he strikes, whilst it redounds to his own immediate advantage, contributes also to the good of the com munity, and the glory and renown of his country. All honorable eniployments are open to him. 'ihe halls of legislation are open to him; the bar is open to him; the fields of science are before him there is no barrier between him and the object oft his ambition, but such as industry and perseverance may overcome.
