The name republic had become an abatrac-
lioa. Oppression had hunted down every
thing b aing the semblance Of freedom: and
The spirit Of liberty on weary wing had en-
circlod the eastern continent, sqjouuing for
time on the Islands Of the Adllaiic and
AMID the glories Of Switzerland, bat finding
40 secure abiding place, when 10 her list
cning car caught the swelling chorus Of her
wor>hipers arising from the wild woods Of
America. Immediately she turned her
course westward, and her glad eyes bcheld
incense Arising to her from ten thousand al
tlrs. She at once erected her throne in the
hearts Of the people. The continental
Congress, seventy>sIX years ago 10 day, an .
nOunced her arrival. Thirteen united COL
ONES gave her their allegiance, and three
millions Of people shouted welcome. She
was proud of such a reception. Her ge>

ragged comrades, as they rushed forward
amid the crash and turmoil OF the fray to
avenge their brothers blood, was liberty.
Even a Washington, with the resources
our county then possessed, could never
have sustained a seven years' war at the
enormous sacrifice oi blood and treasure
that our revolutionary struggle cost, were
II not that our iorefalhers fought for some
Thing more precious than gold, something
more glorious than military honor, some
thing more desirable Than life, yea, some
thing more precious than gold and military
honor and life all combined. In the eigh-
ieeuih century It was thought that there
could not be a good soldier unless be was
well disciplined well fed, well clothed and
well paid and the unexamplrd spectacle
OF men with little discipline, without pay,
