gentlemen, that, even in private life, no man ca.

from intercourse with his fSInlly"ith the village

exile in hls own country. tApplauSel Even

would become OF this mar Gnle Tue same Is also
true is respect 20 nations.
Ifanatlon would seclude Itself nom intercourse,
and from being interested IN Toe concerns OF osaef
nation 5, I, would come quite into the same as
private man who would secludo himself only for
week. The only difference IS, that the conse-
Quences are not felt so soon, because the houIs OF
nations are counted by wars, and the years OF ma
tons are counted BY centuries, and the consequence
would be that thai nation would become an exile
from humanity, which takes interest IN the lave
ofhumanity.
Indeed, gentlemen, NO to the nation whose citizens
care onl, for the momen,ary private comfort, and
rot for the future OF that country which they live
An immortal life in their children and their child
ren's chldtn OF that country whose future glory
the glory OF their children-whose future power and
happiness is the power aud happintrs of their chill
dren. Man secluded, like nations secluded from each
other, would be like the silk wOrm-which, TO De
sure secludes Itself In a selt-woyen house, but
which nos remain for eternity IN that secluson.
Applause 10 must come out. But you know, gen.
uemen, that when the silkwofm leaves It's secluson
1t comes out only TO die That would Be precisely
the condition Of every man who secluces himself
from taxing an interest in the fate OF his fellow man
that would be precisely the condition OF every ma
uon that would be willing 10 seclude Itself from Ia
King an interest In the condition OF every other IA
ton. tGreat cheering When that nation should
come out OF It's silk-worm house 1t would only creep
out TO die. lApplausel But am told that the gen.
srous people OF the United States no. indifferent,
and that the Government OF the United States has
foreign policy toward other pasicns-but that this
