The world does move forward. Il
moves because there are many who art
pushing it forward; who are not to be
daunted by any obstacle, however great
nor any danger, however imminent. II
will move more rapidly when more of us
push. The work appears great, and one
person painfully small. 1t is precisely al
this point that we are tested. One man
says,-"Oh, what's the use!' and gives
up and becomes a hanger-on to the ef-
forts of others; another says Here goes
please count me one!'he holds on; he will
| not give up. Whether progress be much
or little, he has the profound satisfaction
of knowing that he is on the side that is
pushing.
In 1851, ten years before the outbreak
of the Civil War, Charles Sumner took
his seat in the Senate. Slavery was the
burning question, as it had been for pre-
vious years. John Quincy Adams, the
grand old man for freedom, was dead.
A ter his voice was silenced freedom OF
speech in the Senate ceased to exist. A
powerful grol p of sou .hern senators had
taken possession there, to whose aTro-
gance the northern men bowed till Sum-
ner appeared. He was but one man. To
him was bitterly opposed the solid south,
and the leaders of wealth and position at
home. Yet to him more, perhaps, than
to any other man was due the breaking OF
that shameful silence. He was threat
ened, he was assaulted in the Senate
chamber, he was publicly condemned by
the leading people of his own city and
state; he was one man against the world
apparently. But, as one blosraphsr has
written, "When he saw his hardly earned
distinction and all his professional pros
poets crumbling around him, though
keenly sensitive to praise and blame, ne
never retreated an inch to regain his place
or conciliate opposition. his power lay
in his sincerity; his whole soul freighred
his words. There was always man De-
hind the speech" When more men lml-
tate, be it never so humbiy, this mans
example, the world will move ahead
faster.
