one manared Years.


 With the close of this day CTuesday) the American republic completes it's first hun dred years. Its growth from thirteen sparsely settled colonies to thirty-eight states, numbering not less than 44,000, 900 people, is the most marvellous fact of our time. It is difficult to comprehend the as- founding progress that has been made since the little Congress at Carpenters Hall for mally resolved to cut loose from the do- minion of Great Britain. We read in the annals of tke Old World of buildings that have existed for thousand years, and mar vel at their antiquity, but the mind refuses to grasp the significance of the creation of a great nation in one-tenth of that time. Perhaps the nearest approach to compre- hension of this wonderful growth may be gained by recalling the fact that there are persons living in Connecticut who were born before the Declaration of Independ- ence, and whose life covers the entire pe- nod during which this great nation has been gathered together. Many fla Yorable circumstances have contributed to the success we now justly celebrate. The last half of the century has been marked by the most astounding progress in the me chanic arts. The application of steam to land and water transportation revolution ized the business of the world. The reduc- ton of the passage from Europe to eight or ten days stimulated the most remarkable emigration in the worlds history. After more than one hundred and fifty years of colonial existence the strength of the thir- teen original states was but little over three millions all told. Steam changed the whole problem. The oppressed peoples of Flu rope rushed across the ocean to occupy the freedom of this broad land. And the enc is not yet. There is in this romantic his tory good reason for boosting, and the universal Yankee nation may be excused for little egotisn. Not only has the re public outlived the predictions of the croak CTS who thought popular government coult not stand, but it has grown in everything that makes nation great and; respectable Our government is as well established am strictly obeyed as that of any other coun try; 1t has outliyed many that were Hour ishing in Europe when it came into exis ence. Our progress in the arts and sciences in literature and all that distinguishes civil :zation from barbarian, has been as marked as our material growth. In many thing we are fully abreast of the ancient peopl of Europe. We have not had time to cu tiYate the purely intellectual, at least not t our own satisfaction; but we print nor books and read more newspapers than an other country, and the next hundred year will witness progress in the higher walk of life, perhaps equal to the astounding at vancement ln material wealth.
 With rich and prosperous country with government strong enough to rept any invader; with schools and colleges an churches all over the land, the America has right to feel proud, to throw out banner and fire salute. Hartord Post
