Canon Farrar's Tribute to America.
PHILADELPHIA, December ID - Canon
Farrar who sails for England to-day. de-
livered his farewell thoughts on America
last night at the Academy of Music. He
said America was Gods distinct land not
for tyranny, not for aristocracy, not for the
privileged but for the schoolmaster for
England, liberty and the growth of right
eous, Independent manhood. We do not
grudge TO you the Stars and Stripes which
you borrowed from US We do not grudge
you the prophecy of Bishop Berkeley.
which is engraved upon the gate of the
University OF California. 1t is not for
Americans to calmly contemplate such a
prophecy, but to register "a vow in heaven
that it shall be fulfilled IN conclusion.
two general thoughts occur to me in rea-
ton to your great nation. In all your glo-
rlOuS past, in your splendid present and in
YOUR glittering future, Gods hand has been,
Is, and will be ever manifested. Theother
thought was the immense burden Of respon-
slbility resting on you as individuals and
as nation. You have the responsibility
to lead us in England in temperance as we
led you IN emancipation. You have the
responsibility Of healing the Unsuitable
greed for paltry personalities, a responsible
Ity to pit the expansive power OF the heart
and affections against that ill-shaped dwarf
society. Guard the idea of true liberty,
and work out the conception of progress.
Not only accept altered conditions, but ac-
cept them that you may improve them,
and push forward and develop universal
civilization. Work out the pure, manly
correlation Cf religion with the advance
ment of mankind, and have your Christi
anity for the laity the same as for the clergy
and free to all"
