thing the American people can do TO mitl-

THE CELEBRATION.

.ForeGatLers Day was celebrated rs To-
several years past in MiddIebury on the eve
ming of the 22d with the usual observance
at the congregational Church. A larger as
semblage of the sons and daughters of the
Pilgrims than we have over before noticed
on a similar occasion was present Every
New-Englauder should take cogniZance oil
This day rs that which gave birth 10 the ma
tion & quite as worthy of commentator us
the anniversary Of our iadeper del ce. What
more sublime and delightful than 10 travel
back two hundred years and associate our
selves with the noble band Of holy and en-
Eghtened men who landed on the rock OF
Plymouth and laid the foundaIon Of those
noble civil and religious Institutions which
are likely 10 pervade thewhole North Amer
lean continent Oh that the virtues the re-
ligous spirit the indomilable energy ana
love of liberty which distinguished these
fathers of the nation and enabled them TO
overcome every obstacle 10 their glorious en-
tcrprisc, could be Transmitted 10 the latest
generations unimpaireJ. Nothing can more
efecluay contribute TO Il result so desirable
10 every friend ofreligion and human free
dom, than annually 10 array the character
istIc cxccllencics Of our proGcnitors before
their descendants.
Upon this occasion This object was very
happily accomplished by Hon. Samuel Swift
The orator of the evening. His discourse
WAS the offspring of Il sound and enlight-
cned mind and peculiarly adapted TO the
legitimate objects Of the celebration. Ii was
listened TO with intense interest by the au
dicnce lie commenced with detailing some
of the events in the history Of The landing Of
the Pilgrims upon bleak and unacceptable
shore He then spoke Of the hardslips ami
-leprivations which they endured, and be-
came peculiarly interesting when describing
The progress ofthe ever-expanIing wave o.
Anglo-Saxon civilization and dominion
which has flowed from the rock ofPlymoulh
and bids fair 10 pervade The whole western
continent. He passed just eulogIum on
the noble and exalted virtues of the Puri-
fans, their love olliherty b)th IN church and
stale, and awarded TO them the high credit
of being the authors OF the spirit of freedom
which pervades the English constitution &
which so eminently distinguishes our own
tree and happy institutions.
At the close flhe meeting upon the invi-
7a:ion of the Rev. MIR Coe thirty or forty Of
the gentlemen present repaired TO his DIV ell

that Tic assessors have completed their

meantime it is greatly desirable that every
