Remarks of the Hon. Robert T. Conrad, at the Celebration of the Anniversary of American Independence

Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Remarks of the Hon. Robert T. Conrad, at the Celebration of the Anniversary of American Independence: By the Philadelphia Repeal Association, at the Arch Street Theatre, July 5, 1841 The limited time afforded by my official duties for the task which I arise to perform, has been, by other causes, circumscribed to a few hours; and I now regret that it was not entrusted with one of more ability and leisure than myself. Yet the duty should not be an arduous one. This is a festival rather of the heart than the head. It is a day that breaks the seals which close the great deep of our hearts, and bids our early, and world-chilled patriotism burst forth into its original and exulting freshness. It asks no cold philosophies, no deep disquisitions; but the union of virtuous hearts in devout thanksgiving for the blessings which this day hath secured our country. Such a duty should require no long-drawn note of preparation, but should spring, in living and palpitating fervor from the heart: and even if - as is now the case - he who ministers at the altar of liberty utter the rites but feebly, the deficiency will be overborne by the truth of the faith and the fervor of the worship. I am one of those who would cherish our national Sabbaths. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
