The Provident of the Cenvention, Brigadier General 7.

After a brief stay in the Governor's room, employed in the inspection of the paintings, &e., they proceeded in a body, ercorted by the New York State Guard, to the place of meeting. ‘The convention was called to order a little before 12 o'clock, the President, Brigadier-General 7Z.

A motion was made that the addrens of Cen, Scroggie shoald be delivered this evening st Brooklyn. This yas loat, and in accordance with the desire of the ma. aris » Scroggs came forward and read thoaddress, as follows :— ADDRESS OF GEN. GUSTAVUS ADOLPHUS SCROGGS. GrovriaweN—This association declares that ite chief object is “to foster, encourage and perfect a thorough military system.” To that ond fis mectings are from time to titae, for the purpose of dovising and adopting such plans and measnres as shall be most con- dueive eto. composed of commissioned offi- cers of all grades, and such others, who, by virtue of hi performed a defined eri of sesvice in the ere admitted to membersh!p, thoy embracing their numbers meny of the first’ men of the State, a0 well from the learned profcasiona as from al other honorable and responsible occupations of men all baving bad more or less ex nce in the mi! service, it will not be denied the deliberations of such a body will be with some knowledge concernin, thelr subject matter, and that its conclusions wil demand and receive respect. That thie association has been instrumental in accomplishing much towards the attainment of ite cl object, all must adinit, who have any knowledge of ite doiwge; aud that it may be {astrumental in ac- complisbing mnecl more, ix, therefore, very Not long previous to the orzaniration of sociation, the militia law of this State wae revised, or rather amonded, and many radical changes made in the stem, which tended greatdy towards Its improvement, ‘il further amendmente snd ch foltowed, until tho whole beceine involved im such a state of contusion ae to render is exceedingly didicult, to determine, !u re- gre to bye’ A things, what the law was. One of the it efforte of this association was to procure the ap- poiutmonr cf commissioners to codify thore lews, and ropeaé such amendments and alterations es ia their fespment might tend to lmprove ihe militia system, The Legislature of the State, with becoming apfrit and promytoen horized the Governor to appoint three commissioners for that purpose. The appoiatuents having been le, the commissioners ried to the Te codification of the militls laws, with ments. These comuissioners had the d pleasure of seeing the result of their labors approved, and the euactment by the Legislature | of their report into a law, recommeniied by this body. | The wisdem of ite provisiona, accumpanted by so high and intelligent a fanction, commended it to the Iegislature, and, excepting « few of its pro- sions, though by no ‘me: decamo, and mow 1, the law ef the land. Thus, through the instrumentality of this associntion, we have now o militia law which is comprehensible, and a syatea which, if not perfect, is nevertheless complete. The necessity and importance of a welt mised and cipl militia invst be admitted by @! The wi it hae often been snily experieced, which is attested by many melaneholy proofs in the Miatory of our country All things egy. on gr witty asT do—tI do not hi tate to assert there ia nota native born American living who, by word aud deed, would not show himself to be equal, if not superior, in racral and physies cour- age, to any other of the sons of earth; and that an ar. my composed of such, with a reasonable amount of dis- cipline, against their numbers, and even seme odds, of any troope of the world, would te invinelble, Ia ex- Peering myeelt so partially regarding my countzymen, by no means intend to spenk dlaparagingly ding others, especially the naturalized citizens Eee. know there tre at those many who have by cholce made this the land of their adoption, and who in [ts defence and act worthy of any i if I should betray a preference for the one over the olber, it is natural and becom- tng, and I do not hesitate to svow it—not that | think lese of the one, but of the other more.

To attain this, Organization ond discipline, strict, stern disciptine, are to expect that men luntarily leave their daily nvocations, many of w Are occeesarity pursued for a llvolibood whilst othems are sources of health and enjoyment, to rubmit to the discipline of the soldier, and pay the » ox: wen too, An organtestion rimply of the militia may . we by the paid offieia! of the State connected with if, attended with but little, If aay, expense to included in it, But to the end that they may be davined whare- out Dy the service. uniformed under severe penalti tary service annually ; event law nll perrons fo the of this State, may com palled to ot thicteen days mili- those who bel to compenies in cities and led villages, six- teen.

As Le aprons in regard o militia, we seo their numbers in a short time nearly doubled. The martial epirit of the peopie is manifest ia their willingnew to engage in military exercises when it may be done without a ruinour sacrifice of their time and money, And if their expectations bo uot cut off, in & short time the Stale will heyo a force and ia readiness for service that will be abundantly adequate to maintain the supremacy of the law, and preserve peace within her borders, aa well ‘as to supply any demand that may be made for their service on behalf of the nation, But that those who havo entered the service with the expectation of gett anything like a reasonable equivalent forthe time an attention they must necersarily devote to is, a° well ms the unavoidable expenses attending it, must be disap pointed, seems to be evident, unless rome further pro- visions are made whereby those expectations may bo realized. To the ond that such provision may be made, I propose that the law providing for the colection of the commutation tax be amended, so that no property shall be exempt from :elzure for this tax, and that say de- ficiency in the amount raised by this means shall be made up by a tax upea property holders, except thoss in the eeevite. ta: tiie way a sufficient fung can be rats- cd; and to avoid the taxation, the better and more su steatial of men would likely be induced to-cntec the service, which is cer vory desirable. I am not unaware that such # law ht be received with some degree of disfavor, but that it would deserve and ulti- mately receive the approbation of the peeple of tho State generally, | have nodoubt, For it ix just that they who recetve tho greater benofit should bear the greater burden. Benides, the popularity of a maasure is not the true rule by which to judge of ite polley, although @ very common one now: ys. The general is tho true criterion by which all laws should be estimated, and I think it can be demometrated that such @ law would be conducive to the neni ge As the law now is, the poor man, wholives by hia daily In- bor, pays as much towards the maiatenance of tne present every day, Besides, there is wv sons over forty-five years of are the owners of great masses of property, and t are those who have vome trifting infirmity, whieh in no way interferes with their making money, and others who are the recipients of large favors from the government, all of whou avail thomselves of their exemptions, and pay nothing at all. Actual eervice in the militia for the period nai should only exempt the owner of property from contributing to the support of the militia. The poor man is concerned for the protection of his life and personal liberty. ‘he rich man, whether exempt or not, is equally concerned for those and the protection of his Broperty Derides. And in war, insygrection, or riot, the rights of property are more jeopa: lized than either or both of the ot! ‘Those who own destructible property are intorested in ite preservation in proportion to the amount they have of it; and it ia that each should contribute to | tho means of Its preservation im the same ratio. The individual who has nothing beyond his personal safety to look to, may be indifferent to the violence of a mob or the flercences of on insurrection; for against the ovils of both theve he may yore easily provide, But the man who haa houses end barns, storehouses aud ma- factories, ia eager to avail hinaself of the powor of the | State, in the arm of the militia, to stay tho violence which threatens to involve the dostruction of ail he has. ‘Then, Is it not reasonable that auch should contribute to the maintenance of ang institution of the govern- ment under which they live, wheroby it may be tho bet- ter enablod to preserve the peace and protect their property + The history of the present as well as the past teaches us too plainly that the presence of an orga- nized militia force is indispensable for the preeervation of the peace and protection of property in this country, especially in our cities; and that it in even more afficient | ‘than regular troops. ‘The reason of this is obvious, Who does not know that this great city of New York | owes {its peace and safety against internal violence and disorder, in @ great degree, to the discipline, promptness to duty and efficiency of the troops of the Firat pivisiont Lat thie force be disarmed and disbanded, | and the property and lives of its inhabitants would be at least eae, ondangere!, The existence of this force, and ite known roadmesn for any emergency, as an anx- iMary to the civil police, subdues the turbulent and restraiag the lawless.

The citirens of this great city should look weil to the encouragement and of ‘the First Division. ‘The same thing is true other cities, and (bronghout the State gonerally ; thou as the cities diminish in si and in the coun importance and necosdty of thia force diminishes in no place ts it Uulmportant or unnocesary.
