From The late speech Of Hon, G. l.. Dun
HAM Of Indiana, we take The following per>
sonation
Sir, have heard honorable gentleme n
coolly attempt to calculate The value Of this
Union.-iIs value in dollars and cents this
Uaon pulceased at price IN suffering, toll,
and bloud,- comparison with which The
mines Of the Indies sink into insignifcance2
The value Of this Union, in comparison with
the moral influence Of which upon mankind,
the wealth Of the universe is but US The dust
in the balance! This Union, which IS the
germ that IS lea'eung the world with the
spirit of freedoms This Union, which is the
nucleus Of the liberties of mankind-which
is at once the model for the successful and
the asylum for the unsuccessful! patriot, in
his struggles against The tyranny of the old
world! This Unlon, as to whose future,
when you attempt 10 Judge by its past, The
Imagination lullets and our fancy in us bold.
est flight, Ike the dove from Noah's ark, re
turns with weary wing, having found no res>
ting place! Why, sir, what was this Union
few years ago, but thirteen feeble colonies
upon the Atlantic coastf "Westwotd The
star of empire took its way" The hardy sous
of liberty scaled the rugged heights of your
blue AlieghanIes, and poured themselves ins
to the immense valleys below, and already
are they fledwrth rs noble race as the sun
Of heaven ever shone upon. Sill westward
they take their way. They have scaled the
snow capped peaks Of the Rocky Mountains,
and poured themselves down their western
slopes 10 The shores Of The msiestc Pacific
Aud already are our ears greeted with The
hum Of busy industry, coming UP from those
distant hills and valleys. Already, as if by
magic, rich and teemng cities, prosperous
villages, and thriving hamels are springing
lup all over that country, bedeckiug it like
Ehe glinpdng jewels of some gorgeous dn>
dem. Soon the Immense commerce Of Asia
and The Indies, which has So long supplied
the Golfers Of England, aud sustained her lot
Ier'ng power, will pour lis glitierirg treasures
in upon that western coast, anG through yOn
rocky barriers into tho laps ef these our
valleys, Whilst we YET deliDerrie, si,, S ales
are sprnging into existence as if in 0badi.
cnce 10 the fiat of Him who speaks and is i,
done. Calculate the value OF such Union3
As well might you attempt to number the
sands upon the sen shore, or the glitteting
hosts If y0n blue arch above us. Can it be
possible, that any man who claims 10 be an
American citizen, in whose veins courses
Anetlcaa oloOd, IN whose bosom ihrobs an
American heart, who has fell the exhiIaratinq
influence Of The genus of our flee institutions,
can TALL SO low az 10 attempt to calculate the
value Of such Uaion? Sir, such man has
not soul enough to appreciate the value Of
this Union. whch''s petrl above all pnce,
and his eif0r $ 10 do 50 should be listened 10
as The unmeaning babble Of the maniac.
