""State of the Union Addresses"" is a collection of speeches delivered by Martin Van Buren, the eighth President of the United States, to the United States Congress during his presidency from 1837 to 1841. The book includes a total of four addresses, each discussing the state of the nation and Van Buren's plans for the future. The speeches cover a range of topics including the economy, foreign relations, and domestic policy. Van Buren's addresses provide insight into the political and social climate of the United States during the mid-19th century and offer a glimpse into the mind of one of America's early leaders. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in American history, politics, and government.I regret that I can not on this occasion congratulate you that the past year has been one of unalloyed prosperity. The ravages of fire and disease have painfully afflicted otherwise flourishing portions of our country, and serious embarrassments yet derange the trade of many of our cities. But notwithstanding these adverse circumstances, that general prosperity which has been heretofore so bountifully bestowed upon us by the Author of All Good still continues to call for our warmest gratitude. Especially have we reason to rejoice in the exuberant harvests which have lavishly recompensed well-directed industry and given to it that sure reward which is vainly sought in visionary speculations. I cannot, indeed, view without peculiar satisfaction the evidences afforded by the past season of the benefits that spring from the steady devotion of the husbandman to his honorable pursuit.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
