More than three hundred years ago, when the Almighty, iu his never failing Providence, led our fore-fathers, across the great deep, to that America, then so wild and so unknown, and in spite of the hardships, the sufferings, which were encountered, settled them on its shores; little did these brave pioneers thiuk, that, they would give rise to such a grand and pow erful republic. When the eloquent voice of Pat rick Henry lighted the fire of Liber ty, in the hearts of our patriots of 1775, aud when the heroes of Lei iugton aud Bunker Hill, led by the noble Washington, bled aud staiv ed iu the defeuce of their home, they were far from believing, tli[t, from so many misfortune^go^ld spring a period of c£ quility, aud. gress with a firm it&a of what should be done soon, showed the remarkable go ahead for which it is renowned. In the new Republic extending j ! the from"' Ocean to the other, its j uubounded and fertile plains were ! cut through by rapid fi wing rivers j iu its bowels, rich mines of (litter j far ent mineral products abounded, j and animals with precious furs, from the'hnge buffalo to the indus trioiis beaver roamed over its ex I tensive prairies. In spite of so j many riches it was destitute of the greatest necessities of Life, and the j inhabitants, unable to enjoy its ad j vantages on account of the proper i of means, for their importation home, j were iu'lie gieatest poverty. | Urged thus, by want and ambi j tion; it was then, that, the Amcii I can people showed its success in inventions, and its great capacity for Progress and Civilization. Un til then America hud existed, and in had prospered, only by its geogra j pliical position; isolated from oth ! er nations by the Atlantic Ocean, it j was respected, and enjoytkl all its I prosperity by the commerce on its waters. But when, old Europe sent her surplus population, over the seas, it to the fertile valleys of the Ohio or ot of the Mississippi, as a glass filled i to the brim, aud in which a few more drops are thrown, then the water escapes in all directions. The I people of the United States being | formed of a mixture from all nation alities, which bringing over with them- different thoughts aud cus tom 3, and emigrating with the view of making their fortunes, laid a vi gorous, and resolute shoulder to the advancement of their adopted country."--!

Thriv ^spring a the stars and stripes have been raised victoriously, over fields of glorious strife, and in spite of the successful and disastrous efforts of some of its great livers, to leave their natural beds, to break their banks, and to spread, as great lakes far and wide, over the surrounding country. Yet the American people have conquered the elements, over come the disasters of a civil war and is the happiest, the strongest, and the richest nation of the World. AVliep we reflect on the quick, and steady development of this land, the activity and liberal views of its inhabitants, compared to slow progress, to the tardy advance ment of other nations of its day can hardly realize its brilliant exi fence but by placing it under tb protecting wing of Providence.
