That nn honorable destiny awaits us through the American intellect, is forcibly intimated by the past. All that is required to attain to unparalleled : greatness, is, to he true to ourselves, tojmr domestic and foreign relations, and to nur political equality. Already from the auspicious union of order and freedom has sprung a prosperity, a greatness, and an acuteucss of intellect, of which the annals of the world furnish hut few, if any, examples. From ignominious vassalage we have rapidly men to tho first position among; the nations of tho earth !— Our national opulence, and our national glory have grown together. The maintainance of a wise- mid resolutely good faith, with other nations.has gradually established a public credit fruitful "of marvels, which, to the statesmen of .former ages and other countries,' would have seemed incredible. By a manly course of conduct the American colonics have become far mightier and wealthier than tho vast realms which Cortez and Pizarro added to the Spanish dominions; The present is glowing with the splendors of prosperity and moral rectitude. And "those who compare the ago in winch they live with a golden age which exists only in their imaginations," may talk of degeneracy and decay; but'no. man, who is correctly informed as to the past, will ho disposed to a morose or desponding view of the present,’* We have in most things, from the hour tho Pilgrim fathers touched land at Plymouth, steadily 1 advanced up to this period ; ami. our present cir cumstanccs and relations are far in advance of all previous ones.* But j-pt there arc imperfections, defects ; and, as a consequence, much; very much, to do.
