lands for some 600 Southern planters, had
met with an enthusiastic reception, The
President promises all aid in furtherance Of

Is our iellow'citlZens, beyond occupants of
any other part of the earth, constitute in
reality people that here exists the Dem,
ocratic form of Government, and the con-.
fusion of European Statesmen, gives
power that no other form OF Government
is capable, because il Incorporates every
man with the State, aud arouses everything
that belongs to the soul. Where, in past
history, does parallel exist to public hap

part OF the globe can institutions be found,
so suited to the habits or suited to their love
as their own free constitution? Every one

he had his home, must wish its perpetuity.
Who will not acknowledge, Ia the words of
Washington, that every sep by which the
people of the United States have advanced

seems TO have been distinguished by sOme
token Of PrOvidential agency? Who will
not join with me in the prayer that the ill.,
visible hand which has led Us through the
cloud that sloomed around our path will
so guide US onward TO a peaceful utilization
that we on this day may be able to trans
