Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Address Delivered in Zion Church at Easton, on the 4th of July, 1835: At the Request of the Washington and Franklin Literary Societies of La Fayette College We must all derive gratification when noticing a tendency in the literary associations of our country to combine with their public exercises the sentiments and epochs of patriotism. The two societies, at whose call I venture for a while to claim your attention, have significantly selected for periodical exhibition a day of national commemoration: a day on which it is scarcely possible for an American citizen to think of any thing but the glories of the land in which he lives, the exploits and the wisdom of its founders, the freedom and excellence of its institutions, the brightness and the beauty of its future! In this selection is conveyed a silent, but acknowledged instruction to their present representative: directing his efforts to harmonize with the pervading feeling, to swell the general anthem of exultation, and to contribute what he can to invigorate the loftiest of human virtues. I proceed to execute this commission in the spirit with which it has been flatteringly confided, and to tender for your indulgent acceptance some observations and recollections congenial to the occasion.
