PLYMOUTH, INDIANA, THURSDAY, JULY 7, 1859.

ABDRESS: D.elircreil at ' Plymouth, Indiana, July 4lh, 1859, ly r. a. cameron,. m. d., or valparaiso.' Fellow Citizens, Ladies and Gentlemen: Tho . morning was ushered in by thunders. There were distinct succession of reports, ami tu nblings along the earth, A3 if Bomo mighty eruption threstoned. Rutin strange contrast with.tliia, .stirring music floated on the air. The face of ra;m, as if fearing no danger, wore a buoyant smile. The lads and lasses tripped lihtlv along, ar.d tho air rang with their shout of glee.. What means this? It is the fourth of July! the day that gave our natiou liberty.1 No wonder, that "Wild was that dawning! No welcome of words, No star to foretell it no warbling of birds But the day broke in thunder o'er land and o'er sea, And from cloud and from shroud, rang the song ot the Free." : Yes, we have met you to-day, you who have come from woodland and prairie, from town and farm, from field and workshop, from your quiet home, where you sit m under your own vino anl fig tree, with nono to molest you, or make you afraid. Yes. we have met vou here, to rejoice with vou that wo are free! to thank God,', and again renew our patriotic vows, and forever consecrato our all to the sacred cause of human liberty; awd like Hannibal at the altar,' vow eternal hatred to tyranny and oppression. To-day, gl.i'J lieait3 and happy f.ices have assembled among the Granite hills of old New England, along the murnuuh'g shores of th?' Atlantic, from all over mir bio-id plains and prairies; and oven now on tho Pacific slop. :, (for our land is so broad that they have to wait the coming of the Sun. J to commemorate the nation's birthday. And.nii.dojibt,. but while we speak i!t:o:i tho "'I'firilur und in' tin? Chin:i sons. many a stout heait weeps he stands up--on tluj-dtck.' thv.u .rg :it ;s fourth of July -fit liomeTMur it is 4th of July all over the world; nnd .Ks the first gleam of light, from the ri?n j'.eun, ': bursts upon tho vvatiMS, he s.'izes the halyards, and away iroes the bunun; to the top mast, and the ?'ars a;id fetiipes shake out boldly in the: breeze. - - - - - . j God b'esi those stars forvcrf It is LlHEKrv's refrain. From the fuow.4 of wild Nevada , ' To ths sounding woods of Maine!. 4 Oh! Ion ago at Lexington, And above those minute-men, The 'Old Thirteen' were blazing brighi; There were o;y thirteen then! Oh! the stars ha'-e risen in it. Till the E:igle waits the Sun,., . And Fukkuum from het mountain watch, Has counted Thirty-one.'' 1 'Couir?-d "thirty-one;" poetrV vriiui-ri a tim ago, will nol do tor to day. For tod.y, we atin a new star to our galaxy, and now vre have thirty-three in the ftiiiily of Slates. I know of no way that wo can be'ler occupy i!.e biicf moments allotted us to-day. thin in reviewing the subject, familiar though it-may be to you all, of the rise an J progress. vf rivil, religious .nnd political liberty on our own soil, in our own happy country. . A lull centuTY had tlapsed, from the discovery of thu continMit, ' before an' permanent settl-ements were made within our bounds; the whole of our new prosperous country .laying-. a quiet waste.-. In 1C03, "during' the reign of Elizabeth, a party of christians, under their" pastor, Mr. ltobinson, on . account of persecution for non-conformity to the established reIiinon, were obliged to nee their ntrtrve country, and seek heiter on a foreign soil. Thi whs afier tho reformation, yet rel'ij bus tolerance ' and freedom of opinion were then iinkaownj they are products ol American soil. --.-So determined and cruel was this perse out ion, that while it -forbade the pilgrims to worship .according to the dictates f. their own conscience, it determined to' prevent their migration, and as they ,wece about to depart tinder cover of nightrTpart of them., were eeized by an armed forced and the'rcmaind(fr alone escüped to Ilollaud fyrTa temporary shelter. It was rt untiT lhat they" again reunrteu .id mbarkod for "America." At first they started in two ships, but on ticcountcf the leaky 'Condition of one of them they were obliired to pin back no less than three limes, to relit, ..when one cf-iheir vest eU was Abandoned; and'the whole com -pauv. conMStino; of on hundred and one persons, crowded in a small crazy craft setouton their perilous voyage to seek a horn?, MK the unexploroif regijr.s of the New World. , ,f . Who were they, thus driven from their native shore A band of outlaws? A ship load of convictsand condemned criminals? Oh, NO! but a band of stern, resulu'e, unflinching men.Vuh their wives and little ones, 'daring the dangers of the ocean, to find among the savages a grave, or to plant and rear, on a new continent, the tree of civil and religious Liberty.. Little did mat precious ireigni 01 me m iy r lower realize tho glories of to day. Little did they think that; upon this. morn, thirty millions of happy people would rise up and call thcra blessed. But an all-wise Providence, in whom they, trusted, -brotaght them at last, after a weary voyage, in sight of land : and they. landed on Plymouth Rock, in early winter. . V ?IVV - , To-day we have the association x( names, if nbttif circumstances, place or occasion. We are,in Plymouth to-dayi a name consecrated, to Liberty; and, although wo see here no barren rock, or hear no sound of the surf beating against a rock -bound coast; nor hear the winter, winds howHnij among the CiitTs and jagged peaks; ,n.;- '-an we 1mU abroad and see a wide wist. T covered with th3 new fallen snow; yt we of Plymouth, Indiana can 'in our. imagination, at least, jook hack when it thus appeared to tli4 weary pilgrims, of another Plymouth, at another time. Whilo we grieve for their sorrows and sufferings, let us strive to emulate their viilues.

Before our fathers landed, they formed a Republican Government, and delegated their sovereign power as th people, for one year to their governor, John Carver. They left behind them all laws for the eslablishmcRt' of a religion, leaving every man free to wo ship God in any form hia conscience might dictate, and all the old English laws, of the entailing of estates, and of Primogeniture, which more than nnythinj else, had been detrimental to Liberty. These old" English law, a remnant of the Feudal System, where lands were held by the Barons, and the people were out tenants at will, gave the lords and the oldest son after ihem, forever, the only right to the soil, which they could not convey, nor could it be Reized upon for debt.

! Thus dispossessing forever the people, and making them forever strangers in the land of their birth, without a home. Homeless and disfranchised, proscribed in their worship on their native soil, the Pilgrims hre in the infancy of Government, corrected those evils, and, became in fact a true Democracy. Thev passed through many diversified Fcenes; but they grew rapidly they grew strong. They reared churches and school houses; they planted new colonies. The colonists mad their own laws, but acknowledged the king, and kft their acts to his sanction; and thns they wer left. and frew unobserved by tho English people for an bundled and forty years; when the active and prominent part they took in the French war, excited the envy of the lords and barons, forming the British house of Parliament, who proposed to tax th?m. This they at once resisted, as an encroachment upon their rights; for said they. th" right of taxation implies tho right of representation, which is denied us.' In t Iii s controversy the king took the part of the lords against tli people, and attempted to en fore? the duties. A cargo of tea upnn whi?h a duty was placed, arriving at H.s ton harbor, the people assembled n tlis guise and threw it overboard, for which Patliamen'; pas?ed the Boston port bill, olosirrg the harbor. This net. wa alike disregarded by the people. Then commenced a series of acts id reistatu-e, in which Adams. Hancock and Warren appeared. They urged the poph to piepare for armed resistance, which they did; and the first blood was shed at Lexington da fetid hi if their rights, which commenced a Ion' and fearful trug de. At first it was for a principle only irt a thought, or n word' was etil of independence; bu; whftn the breach wa- o-yned soon the Ma of ind 'p n lence followed, Patrick Hen rv und Piling lii'rid Itwltf noiidiMU'P until . , - , r 1 the in'ordr. as a s:et that shoal I h up.m i ni m 9 1 mediately taken. The one 8 o d la thi Forum and on the sum I.Ta I.iu ejotju-oci lhat burned 'upon his lij.s urged ihe nation t the contest. The oilier, wiili his powerful pen, assisted by Franklin's press scattered broad over the lind the fieig of the crisis.' He showed she folk of a reoonciiiaa n wi;h the Ling, and urged up on tho people Ii. e national nop,: the interest the ne.TSsi.y and moral dvantago of being independent. "These K.-iid thepa'rio', in the first number of his 'Crisis,' "are the timea that try men's souls. Tho summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in thii emb, shrink from the service of his country; but he that stands it NOW, deseives the love thanks of man and woman'.' Tytannv. like bell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us. that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: 'Tis dearness only that gives ereryth-ng its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper pi-ice upon rs goods: and it would be strange indeed, if so celesiiil an ariicl as FREEDOM s'-ould not be highly ratod. Britain, wiiban nrmy to enforce hei tyranny, ha de I ied that f he has a right not only to TAX. but "to BIND us in ALL CASES WHATSOEVER." - being bound in that manner is not slavery, then there ia not such a thing as .slavery vjon earth." - ? - In another paper he encourages the people, and uses the following language: "The UN11ED STATES of AM ER ICA" will sound as pompously in the world or in history, as Tii Kingdom of Great Britain;' the characier of General Washington will fill a pae wkh as mu. h lus er as tint of Lord Howe." When we consider the prominent j"-i ti-n of Lsrd Howe, as an E 'r''.s!i 1 : d arid commander-in-chief t'"th 'proud Britons; and the yöüih and in .'Xp Miü.? of Washirgton, this was saying miseh, and more than might, at h time by many be thought justifiable. L rd Howe has pass ed away, and is ahmst, .f rg K.e'r. and but for his connection with th important events of that time, his 'nir.-1 would have been lost. But Wa-din- on w-.s born 'to live forever: his nam-- will go down to all posterity as 'an example of heroism, patience, courage, independence, pa t to -ism and virtue, rarely if ever equaled. and never excelled; and his !iamo will be forever remembered as th "fitst in war. fi st in peace, and T fi ret in the hearts of his countrymen." T. Thedirst public movement toward- inde pendence, was made Lby Ivc iru Henry Lee, of Virginia, - upon the floor of the Continental Qongvess, on the 7th day of June?, 1776, whön on thi following day. a committee of fnc,' consisting of Jetrernon, Saarns, rranKiin, oneimau. u i mwiv i t- ...Ii', oi .... i ton were elected oy i-aiioi. in prepare tue declaration. Jeffewoii was chosen Ly that committee tQ draft the document, whi-h he: d.d. and after some few interlineations by the committee, it was reported t.. Congress, ax'read in your hearing to-lay. It . . . . . July, and discuKscd day afier day. with fear, feeling, and earnestness. In it many of the timid saw, nothing but a dungeon, and the scaffold, and in thus declaring their separation. they had passed a point, where they might expect the clemency of the king. On the morning of the glorious 4th, just

r.'j.iwmrii r.iiuai

eighty-three years ago to-day, the patriot Adams, who "having no fear of the king beforo his eyes," although a prico was pnt upon his head, stood forth, and after reviewing tho who subject, closed a. follows: "Sir, I know the uncertainty, of human affairs, but I see, I see clearly, through this day's business. Yon and I, indeed, may rue it. We may not live to the time when this declaration shall be made good. We may die; die colonists; die -slaves; die, it may be ignominonsly and on th'. scaffold. Be it so. Bo it so. .If it be the pleasure of Heaven that my country shall require tho poor offering of my life, tho victim shall be ready at the appointed hour of sacrifice, come when that hour may. Bnt while 1 dolive, let me have a country, or at least the hope of a country and that a free country. "But whatever may bo our fate, be assured that this Declaration will stand. It may cost treasure, and it may .t hlool: but it will stand, and it will richly compensate for both. Through the thick gloom of tho present, I see tho brightness of the future, as the sun in lvavon. We si i all day. make this a glorious anl immortal When we are in our gravis, our children will honor it. They will celebrate it with thanksgiving, with festivity, with bonfires, and illuminations. On its annual return they will she I tears, cop?-, ous, gushing tears, not of subjection an ' slavery, not ot agony and distress, but of exultation, of gratitude, and joy. Sir, before God, I believe th hour is come. Mv judgement approves thi in anre, and my whole heart is in it. All that I hive, and all that I am. an t all that I h ; . i:i this life. I am now ready here to da kr upon it; an l 1 leave off as I hgun, that live or die, survive or perish, I am for the Declaration. It is my livii.g sentiment, and by the blessing of Gd it shall bo my dying sentiment. Independence, vom, and ixdeFFXDF.NCC FÖltEVr.rt." At the close of this stiring appeal, Old Independence Hall was in commotion. The' foeido were strengthened, the cringing were filled with courage, the resolute were full of the very fire-? of patriotism, and upon tho wave of excitement the resolution to adopt the Declaration, as their language passed without a dissenting voice. While this was going on within, with closed doors, rumor was abroad, busy with accounts of what was passing, anl crowd were assembled; when suddenly, th door was' opened, and a paire appeared, who cried out to the old bellman in the towe;-. "its passed," "its passed," when th bei' pealed forth a if in honor of a glorio s victory. "Its passed," "what'" pael?" - - - -T - - - - throng, that were gathering, "why th as Kei i one to tne other, in t lie immens Dtdaration." sail another, "let us henit," said they all. It wa brought to thy door, and one of the member read it aloud to the assembled mnltitnle, who received it with shouts of ov. Everv where it was hailed with exultation an I pleasure, the mass of th people determining to Mand with it or fall with it. But it cost treasure, it cost hlool. Town, village and hamlets were destroyed, and the country laid waste. The merciless Indian savages who wer employed to hang upon our border, spared neither age, sex or condition. The country during all this long and bloody war, was impoverished and exhausted. Tho army without pay, .excepting continental money, which not having the confidence of capitalists, and being easily counterfeited, be come so worthless that it took a pound by weight of the trash, to be worth an English pound, and often 25 of it would barely buy a dinner. In these emergencies the heroic soldier, went bare-footed ami I covered with rags; and in their winter marches, they left the prints of their feet in blood, on the iee and miow. The best blood of the country watered the soil, and the bones of our fathers, whitened th plains of Saratoga. Monmouth. Yorktown. and lay scattered over every State, from Maine to tho rice swamps of South Carolina. But they struggled on, and in an eventful at?d almost exterminating war of eiücht years they triumphed! and to-day we enjoy tho rieb heritsgo ko dearly bought. And to-day, instead of -trug.din, a Sardinia, Hungary and Italy, with d-pots for foes, nnd tyrants for friends, with little hope for improvement, in any ent, yet fighting with fotiiag-' formed 'iy uespair, we are-rejoieing in a f.ve, an i a glorious countrv. A country stretching from the Atlantik tn the Padfi. from the-great Lake-- of the N'orth to the Gnlf of Mexico, on the South. A country whose soil and climate is unoqualed in the world. A lull "flowing with milk and honey," blooming with cotton, and waving with co'rrr. A ' : country bound together with hands of iron, over whoso iron way the fiery steed rushes with wild delight, bearing to tho ocean tho products of tho soil.

We have no rulers, the people are th sovereigns, making their own laws, they choose their executors, who simply execute their will, and are the servants of the people, looking to them for the tenor of their office, and the payment of their salaries. Here in this happy country, the son of toil, though born in cot or cabin, has the way to fortune and to fame opened wi le before him; he needs but energy and virtue, combined with talent, to place him in the most honored positions. We have thus, fellow citizens, glanced vor tho history of American Liberty, brief an 1 meagre though our reviews have been, j we have seen enough to tiesire to ucepiy desire in our hearts, that our rights, our

posterity until the day of universal peace when tyranny and despotism, like other crimes, will be unknown. To preserve the rich legacy bequeathed us by our fathers, let us study, and study carefully, every clement of our greatness. and every cause that may tend to decay. Let honesty, integrity and manly virtue, both in public anil private life, mark the course of every citizen. Lt us encourage religion; foster schools. academies an 1 colleges. L?t us encourage every man to he the po-jsessorof a home a spot upon this green earth that h- may call his own a place upon whidi to rear his cot, upon which the ivy and the woodbine may climb, and around whi -h fragt- nt flowers may grow, and within which h may rear his offspring, and worship his Gol. with the feeling that this is my country in whudi I have a horn?. Lit us be an orderly, quiet, law-abiding people, submitting to the . ill of the majority, which, if we deem not right, endeavor to rectify through the medium of the press, vn 1 on the stump; but let us never I e found raking the law from the sovereign people, into our own hands, fermenting mobs, which, although the object sought to be accomplished might &ppear plausible at first, would, like the letting out of waters, pass beyond our control, and lead to anarchy and confusion, which if followed would soon find for us a Robespierre or a Louis Napoleon. Let us foster a love of our country; her institutions and her laws; Ictus rejoice today in the glories of her institutions; in our might and in our freedom. For one I thank God that this is my conntrv. "My country! thou choicest gift of God to man. preeminent in tho institutions that honor heaven. The light and hope of the world. May thy honor thy renown, burn upon my lips, and add to every thought und ev ery word, the radiant hue of fire." 31. Kossuth on the War iia Italv.

I now coma to the pretended inviolabili ty of th treaties of 1815. It is the more important to have tho mista' of prejudices cleared away in this regard, as it can admit of no doubt that should ü so happen (which God forefend!) that England were to dep rt from the p-inciple of neutrality it would be done in favor of Austria, it would be done under the pretext of the inviolability of tho treaties of 1315.

The wooden walls and iron bulwarks of England went forth to the Mediterranean with sealed s-cret orders. What if those silent papers should have something to do witli the the ship Otion, moored r.thwart the port of Genoa so as to impede the digembarkation of French troops', and refusing to move an inch out . of th) way? It is rumored that the indignation of the Genoese was loud, that England's naval officers were obliged to stay all night ashore, äs even the poorest gondolier refund to row tTiem to their ship. What if .you should hear the recurrence of petty; annoyances, may be chance, may be deMgn, but at all events calculated to annoy French and Lalians, and to provoke some untoward collision, upon the ground nf which .we may hear England's honor talked of in stirring variations.
