Sir Thomas Brown a. d. 1852, says:
When Spain shall be in America hid,
and Mexico shP.l prove Madrid,
when Africa shall no more sell out
their blacks TO make slaves and
drudges to the American tracts. When
America shall cease to send out its
treasure, but empty 1t at home In Am
erican pleasure; when the new world
shall the old invade, nor count them
their lords, but their fellows in trade.
Then think strange things have come
to light, whereof but few have had a
foresight" CThe Young American An
nual, page 39)
Bishop Berkeley A. ID. 1926, said:
Westward the course of empire takes
its way; the first four acts already
past: fifth shall close the drama
with the day, times noblest offspring
Is the last. Ibid, page 40)
Samuel Sewall A. ID. 1927, said:
Angels incognito have sometimes
made themselves guest of men, de-
signing thereby to surprise them with
a requtal of their love to strangers
In like manner the English nation In
showing kindness to the aboriginal
natives of America may possibly show
kindness to Israelites unaware. In
stead of being branded for slaves with
hot irons III the fooc, md orme, and
driven by scores in mortal chains,
they shall wear the name OF God In
their foreheads, and they shall be de-
liyered into the glorious liberty OF
| the children OF God. Asia, Africa and
Europe have each of them had a glor-
ious gospel day. None. therefore, will
grieved at anyone's pleadings that
America may be- made co-partners
with her sisters In the free and SOW
ereign grace of God. New Jerusalem
will not straighten and enfeeble, but
| invigorate, Christianity in the several
quarters of the world, In Asia, In Az
RIGA, In Europe and In America. And
one that has been born or lived In
American more than three-score
years, It may be pardonable for him
to ask. Why may that not be the
place Of new Jerusalem! OF all parts
of the world which do from this char
ter cntitle themselves to the govern
ment of Christ. Americas plea, In my
opinion, is the strongest. Now II the
last Adam did give orders for the en-
CRAVING OF his name upon this last
earth. II will draw with great con,
sequences even such as will, In time,
| bring the poor Americans out Of their
graves and make them live" (See.
