Progress Of the Pilgrims

Two hundred and thirty years ago to-day, the
Phgnm Fathers landed at Plymouth Rock. The
anniversary of that event, usually calls out refc.
rences to that important incident and to the many
results which have sprung from it. Already we
fave seen many illusions to this day, particularly
M the sectarian journals; and, Of course, have
been obliged TO notice the wholesale eulosiums on
the character designs and ambition Of the Pilgrim
Fathers, which such extra. historical and unphilo-
sopbical comments almost necessarily iavolve
While no one can deny that the pioneers in the
settlement Of this country were bold energetic
and persevering men, Je, we think their history
may well be divested OF much Of that poe,ical dra-
pery that hspes around H. II distance did mo-,
lend enchantment to the riew. we think the bald
facts connected with the enterprise OF the Pilgrims
would present. in their stern and tru!hlike smPlic.

news, to which we have barely time to refer, is
