PROGRESS AND GRO Will OF
AMERICA.
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."--!

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
