THIS is the anniversary of Forefatbers' Day

This is the anniversary OF Forefathers' Day
We may be very far from the realization of
their notions of civil and religious liberty, and
the air may be full of treason still it is the an
niyersary Of that day. Two or three hundred
years have somewhat changed the outward
appearances of the land which they peopled,
and the institutions which they established.
But the same moral conflict which was the
central idea of their day and generation has
been handed down to ours. The Puritan voy-
ayers who sailed into the night and the storm,
looking into their own bosoms for the stars of
their destiny, were neither greatly privileged,
nor oppressed above other men. 1t is their
religious and sublime self-sacrifce which makes
them appear SO. "The Liberties of our
House it behoveth us to to leave to our Pos
terities in the same freedom we have received
them," said the Puritan Commons in 1916 to
the Lords. And when they discovered that
their purpose could not prevail against the
defenders of bad State and worse Church,
they found a new field for planting the trees
whose ripened fruits they never hoped to
enjoy. They are partly rewarded by fame
immortal even among men who perish. But
the 'irrepressible conflict" did not die with
them. They conquered for themselves not
altogether for us. We have slaves enough
still who would give their lives for another
Mayfower, and the knowledge of another
Plymouth. Every day they are stealing away
to as stern climate, and to as hard fate, as
that which befel the devoted men who set
them the example. The law is against them,
and we hang the audacious man who approach
es them outside of the law. Public sentiment
which is on the side Of justice, when it is best
understood, prepares the way for the meliora-
ton Of oppressive statutes, but lacks courage.
The bowling of few bedamites, who prefer
anarchy with tyranny, above harmony and or
der with the dspensation of equal priv
ileges among men, often frightens the best
intentioned humanity into cowardly hui
initiation. And this is the reason why
we now listen day after day to eulogies of bar
ba-ism, coupled with the most daring and reck-
less perjury and treason. Fortunately, the
Puritan spirit is not exhausted. 1t is only
dormant. 1t is often trifed with, and doesn't
readily know when it is wronged. But in the
season when action is wisdom, it may be relied
upon to defend the institutions which were
contemplated as part of the republican gov
ernment by its founders, and to destroy what
ever others may have risen to impair their Sc
curity.
