Patriotism Run Riot. a
From the Southern Messonger. ICU
In a lecture delivered at Beethoven bu
Hall in this city last Saturday, the,
gallant Captain Hobson, of ".'lerri- Ir
mac" fame, indulged in much indis- B
Lriminate glorification of America h
and the Americans. As a nation, we f
have a pretty high conceit of our- I
selves, but the most rabid I striot "
most blush to be told to his face tl
that "Americans are physically ea- tI
perior to any other people," that P"
their "intellectual and physical vigor C"
far exceeds that of other nations," 1f
that "we are the only aation of m
-ialiatr in the world," see. ete-We tA
0·o W.«ier from th pbllbasd b
-aslly reserved for fourth of J ly
orations, and are barely excualde
yven toes, but on the lecture platform at
they are in bad taste, and their luck ki
of accuracy is more painfully notice- CT
able. TI
The lecturer goes on to tell us of Si
"our sacred duty" to carry the Mou
roe Doctrine across the Pacific, to
control the po.itical destinies of other
people without their consent, to have
"the leading voice in the great con
Dert of natious,"-io short, to reg
late the affairs of the world in g.'neral,
with a great big navy to support our
pretensions.
Our admiration for Captain H.ºl
son's brilliant record as a naval
olfuer should not tbl;nd u+ to the fact
that talk like this is exceelingly
mischievous in its tendency. It is
calculated not only to disturb inter- l
national comity, but to eucourag,
especially among the young and D
thoughtless, very wrong notions of
national honor and very dangerous
views of national duty. We are all
proud of America's high and honors
ble position among the nations, and
we should all be sorry to see her in
stoop to the level of the braggart and '
the bully.
It is neither necewary nor wims to L
swell our unational conceit by self- s
glorification at the expense of others P
It would b tter become us to cultivate th
a little of that modesty which is T
snpl'oed to ap;.ertain to true worth. S
Let us, by all means, have a navy
amply sumciest to guard our coasts eo
and protect our commerce; but let us s
also have less talk of "manifest des- i
iay" and more eioaskratles for a
justice and righteousness; less vai.- C
glory and a great deal more of that to
fear of God which is the beginniag of R
wisdom. ni
