There were - almost of every p t e ii nf r w hich are more SWSSfcU SSoSSj£ the observation of the traveler is more or less m sawr^s^is^s-as TSi zssr% «fOT B aU thegood that he gained by it. In the institutions and manners S tin JhHObaerved as well as the outside aspects Sfhuildings and handsome structures. Europe - wera the two live continents, and, thereforo should be studied by the traveler, and pot inerely observed. The characteristic nf Europe was its diversity of conditions. It mas therefore, the most inviting to the tourist. There islno monotony of scenes ■ or grandeur. In the same day the traveler may spend many hours amid orange blossoms, and then m a Short time afterward be viewing with acontm- Sty of delight the hills of ihe Alds. Besides natural scenery, there , mas a variety of interest in the characteristics and customs of different nations. The vivid contrast between the present and past is not the least remarkable things which strike his admiration. In a single day the locomotive whirls him across the surface of nations differ ing radically in language and usages. What most strikes the intelligent observer, is the inti mate connection in Europe between nature and histdry. The aspect of European nation alities was likewise a point of interest that sug gests itself at all times. Europe is the best fitted of all continents for the formation of nationalities. It is best fitted to, produce what it has produced—to be' the school and work-shop of the world. Europe is intimately associated with Nature. One can scarcely look at the ruins of European castles, without thinking of the Feu ’dal times, their glories, sins, and shames. The •natural scenery of Europe much resembles one •of its old cathedrals. In iact; Europe is a great cathedral, reminding us of the great events of the great past. The sensations which the lecturer experienced in various cities of ■Europe! were detailed,' and especially his feelings when viewing the grand scenery of Florence, Venice,''' and other cities of Italy. Entering Rome was like going into fit. Peter’s—one feels the spirit of the mighty Spirit, and the historical overtops the -natural iinterest so much that it is only, as it we re, accidental that one becomes acquainted with the rare beauty of the country around Nome. [But what is there which peculiarly inte jests the American in viewing European scen ery. It is because he sees in the present posi tion of Europe,and in its past, that indomitable spirit of liberty which stirs the heart land impresses the mind. When you view the mountains of Switzerland, you can not avoid the reference back to the time of Tell, and to think of the spirit of liberty which animated that genuine patriot. You are impressed with the lesson that liberty is worth all that it costs. [Applause.] The traveler of EuropeHearns another lesson in his progress through its various nations, and that is the sufferings which nationalities endured rather than surrender their individuality and their freedom. The subject of European na tionalities was adverted to at length. He had found On the continent many traits of char acter that it would be well for Americans to copy. As to England, he did not pro pose to say much. Between that country and this there were two great barriers —the Atlantic Ocean and the London Times. [Laughter.] Both are disagreeable, for both Btirup:thehile. London is a fit type of En gland ; with its mighty tides of traffic running through the arteries of the world, with ttm splendor of its wealth, with its treasures W knowledge, with its shames, its crushing mis eries, its dull skies and dingy walls, London is snblime. In no country is there snch an in tense sentiment of nationality as in England; she is concentric; there is die Government or aristocratic England ; there is the commercial . England; the England of working people and the England of higher cast, just and tolerant, brave and tender. The lecturer next adverted to the condition and aspects of France. Paris, he said, is undergoing a vast material alteration. The spirit of improvement was everywhere observable. A visitor to that city would hardly know Paris as he last saw it in 1848. The national aspects of Germany and Switzerland were briefly referred to. Italy was a live State, embodying the spirit of one of the noblest nations of Europe. As yet it exists as a dismembered body. The spirit of the present is actively, at work there, and the time will soon come when Italy will rejoice in a proud and thorough regeneration. It was absurd to speak of any of the old attributes of Europe as being worn out. Monarchies and aristocracies are as strong as ever. It was astonishing to notice hew strong aristocratic governments are, even when adjoining strong Democracies. Yet the waves of liberty are passing over the surface of the nations, and changes for the benefit of our common humaniijy. There was but slight allu sion made to American prospects, for the rea son that the lecturer considered, this topic one Of every-day speculation. Out of onr troubles Would emerge the prospect of national origi nality. Since our struggle began, and especi ally while he was in Europe, Mr. Chapin felt deep occasion to be thankful for the American people—[applause]— thankful that they were so nobly solving the problem of democracy. This was our hour of trial, for men and institu tions; and God be thanked for the kind of men which onr institutions are developing.
