uto toward this debt. A c:,!y of tiI- Act
was transmittedl to America, and was met
with indignation by the pcoile ; whiile the
assemblies of New York, MIiasachu.it, - t
Virginia, and Penusylivaniti inuneodiat ly
prote-Cted, dccl:iring that tax'ttion whit.oiut
representatioln .as reducitlitr thicli to the
condition .of slaves. Dr. Franklin was sent
to England as representative of the Colo
nies and endeavored to impress the minis
try with the indiglnation of the people, but
in vain ; for on the 22d of March, 17(15, the
Act was signed by George III. and became
a law. This, of course, caused intense feel
ing, but as yet no overt act was perpetrated
by the Colonies. Though cast down they
were inot forsalken. God was leading thenm
by a path they knew ntt ; for it appears-to
us to-day, looking back upon the past. as
though God allowed the hearts of the Eng
lishl inistry to be hardened, and caused
King George, within two years from the
time of signing the first Stamp Act, to firm
a new Cabinet with Charles 'lownsend at
its he:ul, a man of Ailli ant wit and clo
lnence, wholci power over Parlianteit w s
unboihndied; one' who would einforce the
old l.aw, and make his name notorioul:, by
introdutcing another bill to oppress the Col
oni':;, making the yoke tliready heavy to
gall and chafe, until patience ceasing to be
a inlt ue, they wouldl no longer submit. On
thi f 2lth of June, 1717, the bill imposing a
duty ,on tea, glass, Iape:, and painters' I
cob.lo s bt canme a law. W'Ve have learned how
thesa, Acts stirred the heads of the people
as they found themts.elves reduced to servil-
ity. Their condition likened to the child
ren of Israel in Egypt, in other words to
toil and llabor that (Phnoa Ih) King George
alni l'arliament might dress in fine linen
and fare sumnptuously every day. ' What
matter if the cold, bleak wind swepIt its
chilling blast through their cabins, and
pill.l the snow upon the c )erlet of their
bede. What matter if frail women and
hiel;,lcsi children were on the verge of star
vation in some sparsely set'ledl sections
and tl!ough they called for breador aid it
could not be rendered ; and thou(gh their
childreul die from expos'ure, thel tax must
be paid, or the hirelings of the kinff will
seize their farms and hly their, humble
dw-,nlliings in ashes ; taxed they were, pay
tho tax they must, and that without a bhea'
in,, for thcse odious and painfulliaws were
imposed by mseen who knew nothing. of:,their
walns, and appeared to care lets. -I the
intld ration like fire lohog sin rwas
detifnel to burst forth in a repidrut
flae o patriotism and true manlood,amid
which Ahgland and the whole world were to
Ihear the voices of our forcefithes, as ncie,
c olaiming,
" Give tUltCirty or givce t Dea:th!"
T ei indicatiojis of the coming storm were
heb ind Inthe expressions from the different
assemblies of the Colouies, prominent
am.ong which were the words of Patrick
Henry, who, in the niidst of a speech to the
;iassembly ofVirginia, in referring to taxa
tion witi ! ''lries.oWC at sn and the tyranny
of the tuotltcr country, said: "Ceser had

able Lecaauso of the n:eting of tm; P
Continental Congress, but events were a,
transpiiing that were replete with int rest, a
prominent among ' which was the fiast reil ( i
battle of tie war. liertofore the British t:
soldiery coming upon defenceless citiznls s
h1iad disgRaced the name of soldier by sholt- t!
itg them down in cold blood aid Imu'derie g a
peixcful inlhabitants like dogs on the streett n
of Boston. But the 19th of April dawned p
upon men with wholm paticuce had cease, ;a
and they resolved to submit no longer to i
see their aproperty hirned and their breth- i
ren slaughtered by their side, for whenl ti ,
enemy opened upon them they returned the n
fire, and as darkness ci:sed the battle (; a
killed, 180 wounded, wilh 2 pri soners, toil
how they had puiiished their foe. This on- v
gageimet was followed by the brilliant ex- \
ploit of Elhan Allen in capturing 'ion- (1
derga aind Crown Point. Marchiug his v
forces up to the fortilication lie demanded I
its surrender. The co.maltier' st'-,ri'C.
euquired in whose name he made such t
demand; when this gallant soldier ill is
reply reminding us elf c(ideou's host, said:
' I d'emand the surrender in the namie iio,
the Great J.Tehovah and the (ontin'nt:l r
Congress." The Iiiiti.hl commniander, ap::'- t
SentlJy realizing that the Contincntai's had t
becomite the cause of leaven, surrendered t
to superior power, and 1t10 cannon, besides
1minunition and stores, became the proper
ty of the victors.
The year 177v was ushered in finding the
colonies struggling against a relentless en
emy. WVm Plenn was sent to England the
preceding year in hopes that all dilieulti:'s
might be adjusted, and retuliuilig home re
ported the cool reception he had received, t
and that their attemtptl d conciliation ani I
compromise had been rejected. Although 1
several en'gagements had taken place and a
Colonial Congt'ress had been organiized and
they had appointed a General, w ith lii; ar
my to carry on the war. yet it was not till
the 4tlh day of July. 1770;, one hindred years
ago to-day-a day henceforth forever im
mortal in the li.story of the world - that a.
formal 1)eciartion of Indepeiidence was
r lAed, which foiever separated the C(1lo,
eies from tie Crown of Great Britain. 'i'hs
act prompted England to send reiniforee
t ments to her iarmy in America, under Gen.
l Howe, whose filres now numbered :O0,000
o well-armed, drilled and equipped. Against
these Washington could muster but 9,000
men, poorly armed and unacquainted with
military tactic,--but with these lihe unfurls
e hisbanner, and after fighting the battle of
It Lodg Island leads his army through New
it Jersey, and on the 2i;th of )eecember fights
k the batttle of Trenton, and gains a triumn
c lhiant victory. which was followed seven
i- days afterwarni by the battle of Princeton,
y with another victory fo.r the Continental
d cause. l)uiin; the year 1777 the battles
of Braindywi.e, GeIrmantown and Saratoga
r were fought, which although undecisive
e to the main cause at issue, nevertheless
a convinced the enemy that the Americans
af would never surrenler. Early in the win
18 ter Washingtoit'O depleted army took up
r- their qunaters at Vtalley Forge. Though
Ssheltered' from the storms by rude huts,
r- the suffering of the army for want of pro
s- vision and clothing was indescribable. The
id severe winter found the men without shoes
p. or stockings and almost naked, while the
in the rough an*d frosen roads from White
,d Marsrh to Vtlle, PForge were stained with
in blood from the bare and mangled feet of
es these heroie ien. ia a short time time the
ie miserles of want. amuoiintii.g altost to

equality of all iiirii before the law, the
fonudation of aill their liberties. Never,
never, while life listed, would they again
submit to tyranny : and uniting their all in
one coIimmon cause against the oppressor,
they ..cotinued the struggle till the name
Ameurica became synunymonsswith freedom
the world over. Its glad song sounded
ni)on the cars of tlhe hardy sons of the
North, finding an echo amid the tropics of
the South: greeting the sun with its sym
Sphonies as it rises in the East, while its
music s:autes the ear alike sweet vespers
of praise it is sung by those of the West;
till now at last, after the clouds and mis's
of years have rolled away, and the can of
peace and unity shines upoen, our Centennial
Anniversary, the whole world rises utip to
-.ing this d eology to the glory of God and
She honor of the land.

And now how shall the second century
be made as pro'perous, and our growth as
great, and development as rapnil as the
contory past ? We answer i
First-By unity y Iluowiug no North,
S.;th, East or West, but living, w-rking
and aeting as one: rjoieing im the success
and prospel ity of each part of the country;
rememtwring that the happiness and pros

peculate or abstract one dlollar from thlo
public funds; applying the law with equal
force to County, City, State, and National
mbovernmrwuts. This will kill at least one
lialf of the politicians, destroy the peace of
many a clique and disrupt multitudes of
combinations that exist only by robbing
public treasulies. liht it will restore con
idence and bring additional prosperity to
the whole land.
Third--By education. Giving our chil
dren and the nationalities who shall come
to us, an education that will enablo them
to have proper conceptions of their duties
toward the State and toward one another,
and thus, with free schools, free colleges
and a free press, and with all in the full
-njoyment of civil and religious liberty,
they will be preplared to lift the human
family to a higher plane of true manhood,
and hasten the cra of the universal brother
hood of man.
Fourth-Obedience to God an:d the teach
ing of Ills Word. For compliance with all
His comimands is the true secret of happi
ness and success. The history of the past
teaches us the truth of the declaration
that, "Rlightousncss exalteth a nation,
antd sin is a reproach to any people."'
Thus, with the precepts of the Most HIgh
enstamped upon our hearts, we go forward
and the glory of the second century shall
as far outshine the glory of the first as the
merlidian sun exceeds the early morning
light.
I have read that while the Continental
Congr:ocs at Philadelphia were engaged in
discussintg the Declaration of Independence,
that crowds of people congregated around
the Old State House, waiting for the final
declaration that should declare the Colonies
free and independent. Knowing the
eagerness of the people, the Speaker had
placed a, man at the door, another one on
the stails, and the third one with his hand
on the rope of Old Independence Bell.
As soon as the act had passed and the
ballot was announced declaring the thirteen
Clounics forever free and independent, the
S. f:ker cried to the man at the door,
Siiig I " and the man at the door cried to
the maan on the stairs, "Ring!" and he to
the min with his hand on the bell rope,
"Ringg ! " aln with joyous heart, and amid
the loud acclaim of the assembled thou
sands, rang oat a peal thiat caused the
nations ,of to earth to rejoice, and whose
reverberations are still sounding in our
ea:s, " procluiming Liberty throughout all
the land, uato all the inhabitants thereof."
Ani, to-day, standing in the doorway of
t!he second century of American Independ
ence, we cry to the generations half way
up tie second Centennial " Ring freedom
and equality to all undet the sun," and
their voic.es shall reach through the path
•.IwV of years to the privileged one standing
iy ch r Ine.pendeneo Bell in 1976, who
I:: the loud acclaim and the triumphant
h 'l:.h;:jahirs of a people whose borders shall
iteoal over the whole American Continent,
havinlg but one Star S)angled Banner as the
e miiiblem of their nationality, and bowing
to one who is the Supreme Ruler the
.hcl:ov:;h of heaven and earth, amid the
..:"phonis of the swelling doxologies of
praise, will cause the Old Bell again to
ii)' out universal liberty to all the nations
of the earth.
