OUR COUNTRY'S PATRIOTS Oration IMiecred at the .finniversary erirltra lion if the Philo, Society of CnlleLfr, on !he C.C?.!ii ng of July 11, 11553. by Juti:: W. Cuinatanicaled by a friend.

In the celebration of this joyou - s - day - the --- Philotna - - Oan Society desires to participate: and on this the twenty-fourth year of our existence - as a society, we would associate our anniversary with that of our countryqs. freedom. Not - only does our nation's heart beat high with joy, but a similar feeling animates the hopes of the friends of freedom throughout the world. No matter where they roam, whether on the wintry coast orSibena; or the sunny-plains of India : whether through the fertile valleys of the Continent or ote.some lone, barren isle in the stormy ocean. they hail this day with joy, and directing their eyes towards the Western Continent, viewing the results of the actions of the day of which this is the anniversary, they cherish a hope which is, alas, too bright for realization. It is, indeed, a great good day; and well may-the eye of every American -kindle With the fire of liberty, and his heart glowing with gratitude, pulsate with patriotic emotion, as - he contemplates the freedom o f his na dye land, achieved,secured, and transmitted to him by his patriot fathers. his to them, under the guidance & pretectiou of Heaven, that we are indebted for our noble institutions, our national prosperity, and the exalted position which we occupy amongst the nations of the earth. It is their actions that we to-day commemorate, and the result of their life & death that gives us so mach . cause for joy:and con! atulation, In the days of our prosperity,how can we forget their trials, their sacrifices, and their nobles ? 9n this the day of our national festivity, ow can our memory of them slumber? Instinctively the mind turns back to. scenes of by gone years, and: recounts, one by one; the eventful actions in which our Patriot Fathers were the great actors, and the grand 'results of those events - which have all conspired sp gloriously to make us a free, happy and independent nation.—Go with meill imagination back through the lapse of years to the eventful peridd of 1776-, and en tering, the portals of Independence Hall, take a view of the surrounding scene. Assembled • within'those walls is the third American Con gress, yet the representatives' of the subjects of a foreign potentate. But it is a noble band of patriots. It is the 4th of July; and a more than usual interest is 'manifested. The time has at length 'arrived when forbearance has ceased to be a virtue. The pup of • England's oppression is full, and animated with' the spirit of freedom; they resolve to be true to their cause. View them .as, with determination, yet with soul stirring eloquence, they recount their wrongs and resolve to be free. Their sky is overclouded with the' smoke of British cannon, and an almost impenetrable gloom broods around, yet one lone star penetrates that gloom, sheds its genial ray upon their hearts, animates them to noble actions, and guides them on to deeds of glory.- It is the star of hope. 'By its. refulgent light, the gloom is dispelled. They see through that gloom a glorious fal , tire for themselves and their posterity, and resolve to sacrifice their lives and their sacred.honbAnpon. the altar of liberty. No cowardly fear agitates them, but "trusting Him who is mighty to save," and with the glorious motto, "Liberty or death," those noble men sign that declara tion of Independence which is destinedto live with their country forever, or to consign them to a traitor's grave. The grand, impressive. sublime scene is over. American patriots have performed their first duty. -A nation is 'born and the goddess of liberty smileS through her tears. Such were the patriots of 1776. and noble spirits they were. They loved the land of their fathers, but their homes they adored. Peace and security were dear to them, but they scorned oppression ; conscious of right, they promulgated the great principles_ of independence and -self-government to the world,-'and appealed to the God of nations for the justice- of their cause. But these decla rations had to be sustained. For England having refused to listen to their supplications and redress their wrongs, was less willing at this crisis to acknowledge their independence. Far rather would she "greet them with bloody hands and welPoine them to hospitable graves." Haughty and self-confident she invaded our shores with a powerful army, resolved to crush the germ of liberty in the bud. But our coun try's patriots faltered not now ; they remem bered that "Men who their linty know, lint know their it It:Hrs.:oo knnwitv4 darn maintain, Prevent the lowz ;6111+ , 4 blow. An.l crash Ow tyrAnt whilst they real the chain." Buckling on their armour, and bidding farewell to those near arid dear to them, they marched with increased vigor against the enemies of their freedom. See them in a bloody and pro tracted war, enduring hardships and privations unparalleled, and falling on the field of battle fur all that was dear to their hearts, their free dom, their country and their homes, and re member that such were the patriots of the rev ,olution. [hiving declared themselves freemen, having courage to sustain these declarations in the dark hour of adversity, having conquered proud England and compelled her to acknowl edge the independence for which they fought, . and having restored peace to their homes and secured theth from the ravages of war, they , were ran void of wisdom in the hour of peace. They did not fail to devise means of securing to us the Independence which they had so dearly purchased. goon a Constitution was adopted pregnant with the. great principles of civil and religious liberty. Guided by her in stitutions. our country went on in her onward and upward career, while peace reigned sit prelim for a period of more than thirty years, and with her golden chain of union bound these States together.—ln 1812 our country found it necessary to again vindicate her rights. Then our Country's patriots again engaged in conflict with that power which they had before vanquished, and nobly was England taught that she was no longer mistress of the seas, and that America is inVincible to a foreign foe. _Again, when Mexico violated the rights of our citizens and insulted our national honor, br re heartiA . patriots were willing to defend our rights. hi that conflict, too, victory followed victory, nor dill they desist till our stars and stripes, fir-ztdved with the blood of revolution ary paariu!s, and next unfurled at New ()I-- lean , and Chinewa, floated triumphantly upon the walls of Montezuma and graced the walls 01 Mexico. The result of this war was the ac qui•ition of Cah6irnia —a new star was added to the bright constellation of the we sera world. and our institutions mouuted the snow clad etas of the Mucky lountani: and skirted the shores of the great l'acitic. Thus, ever in the "r of adversity, when oppression and war thrLatencil our nations Sntletr, her patriots stood nobly I,‘.- her cause, and with a strong and brave heart secured and preserved r -America triot : itt , iry 1.) her p.i.tll , `t to , ;- T'i .

This labor was performed by our patriot statesmen, and here was the origin of our institutions. the wohlest gift of our fathers, without which all. I toils and sacrifices would have been in vain—the great distingnishing_feature of_ mar greatness : their origin is as illtharimis as Weir originators were great. - and good. but their worth and grandeur, who can estimate it ? They stand pre-eminently superior, unri--' vaned, unparalleled. We need not fear a com— parison with the world. for as a lone star in the heavens shines with greater effulgence when surrounded by clouds, so will American Institutions present„a more perfect aspect when compared with, the dark tyrannical govern ments of_other_Aands=Mexico,___a_ few_vears__ since our sister Republic, was successful in overthrowing despotism. and looking to us for example, she sought to follow our - footsteps. But her institutions were deficient. Her gov ernmentpassed into the hands of a, military tyrant, the liberty of her press was 'destroyed, her constitution fell a victim, anarchy followed, and now she is on the verge of dissolu lion, ith her nationality threatened. The miscalled Republics of South America scarcely deserve a thought. If they are unrivalled in the 'west ern continent, are they equalled in the East ? Acrould you subject them to a comparison with the countries of the ancient world, in imagi nation mount the rugged Alps and standing on their lofty summit look down upon the scene. England, whose oppression first exiled our 'Pilgrim fathers to these then western, wilds, and afterwards drove them to open-re bellion, which resulted in their independence. is England still. Her aristocracy still revels in wealth and -power, while, her laboring classes arc ground down by-want she isTCinfighting the- battles of the world. while poor Ireland, whose history is written in blood, lies in her ancient degradation. She professes to be the guardian of liberty while she banishes Irish patriots to Van Median's Land, and rules over her millions of Indian subjects with an iron Sceptre. France, the home of Lafayette, a few years ago a young Republic yet wading in the blood of her tyrants, has lost her spirit of liberty, and, like Mexico, has exalted a tyrant to rule over her destinies. The liberty offier , press is likewise destroyed, her citizens are op-, pressed, and the nation bleeds - in the Crimea and on the banks of the Danube, a victim to the ambition of Napoleon. Russia, on the Other hand,. With her million of serfs, is fight ing lortheliberty of the world,'whilst dismem bered Poland tells too plainly_ that it is her thirst for power that actuates her;_and Hungary, pointing to her bloody battle fields, dropping a tear upon the graves of her patriots, exclaims with Madam Roland, "Oh, liberty, how many wrongs are committed in your name." The Ottoman Empire will soon be dismembered. and the proud Musselman will bow his knee in meek submission to the conqueror. Every where the scene is gloomy compared with our 'favored land. Here we enjoy liberty of speech, liberty of the press, and liberty of action. Here is an asylum for the oppressed of every land. Ours is emphatically the :home of civil and religions liberty. In less than one hun dred years, guided by our institutions, we have reached our present • state of greatness. They still exist in' their original grandeur to guide us on to more brilliant achievements, and a more glorious destiny. But where are their originators; their establishers and pre servers ? They, too, live; but only in the hearts of their countrymen. They, have been consigned to the lonely tomb and sleep the sleep of death. Flowers bloom 'upon their graves—a tear still stands in the nation's eye— Americans love to lisp of their greatness, but the history of their country is their best eulo gium, their most faitlful_, monument the love and admiration of the world. Though they peacefully slumber in the silent tomb—though the passing gale sighs for them an eternal requi em, and all around has the loneliness of deso lation, their actions, their example. and their memory still live, they cannot perish, ''They shall resist the 4.lecay, • Till tuna is gone ant worlds have Who can contemplate their characters without feelings of admiration, or remember their trio Is and their achievements without feelings of gratitude ? Let us cherish their memories. Let - us Imitate their example, and emulate theirvirtues. The freedoth which they achieved is ours, "ours to enjoy, ours to transmit." As American citizens, let us be trite to our duty, maintain the Constitution, preserve the union, and transmit to posterity our honor untarnish ed, our freedom unimpaired. Thus will our country go' on in her_ course.of prOsperity, ever increasing in influence and glory, until all the i nations of the earth, shall look to us as their guiding star to the haven of liberty and peace. • Ciwi's IS CANADA.—A correspondent of the Montreal Herald says : "If nothing happens, we will have the largest amount of grain ever grown in this country." • LE7 - Tho ladies of Virginia are trying very hard to raise 5200,000 to purchase the Mount Vernon estate. 11:7" Ilm.Low vV'S PI LI.S a certain Pornoly for liiiligeqtion amt Liver Complaint.-151aria Arne! rong C 27), of Edgar town, New Jer,ey. .nfrere.l more than most people from in aceompanie I by livvr t1!%.,‘1.11 very clever medical imm told her C,lte 11114 11 it, a n d her friend, , leslialred of lien ever reciwet ing. a, she had trieil every tint.% they thought likely to benefit her, Ihltil 011t SUCCe.C.
