All these are the fair fruits of that inductive or experimental system of:philosephizing which was inaugurated by . Lord Bacon, and which,' ollowed up with such ;.brilliant results at the close of the last century -' by, the philosophers of the continent, has ' ""ripened; in this mge ' and in great part in our own country, into afruitage of unprecedented richness and exuberance. - The diffusion andgrowth of commerce ~, futile present century has not been less re - .markable. Only a quarter of a century ago, • the intercourse 'between - this country and " Europe was by sailing vessels; and was at tended by the evils of tardiness and irregu larity, and was of comparatively limited re ' - sults, At this time, almost every considers.- - ble portion - of the earth which-Words' a ma - terial for commerce is tied to the other by • lines of swift and comniodions steamers; defy , ' lig alike the wind and the wave, and bearing with admirable despatch, and regularity, and • safety, their teeming cargoes of the rare and valuable products of distant lands, or those 'of agriculture and the arts, with multitudes of intelligent and - stirring adventures, intent on spreading civilization to every portion of the earth's habitable surface..• It is -within the brief period which I have :mentioned, that the Cunard and Collins lines have mentioned-their voyages betweenl New York and Liverpool and Southampton ,that steam communication has been established between England, through the Mediterranean - to Egypt, and through-the Red. Sea and the Arabian to India; that a line of ocean steam ers plies between London and Airstralia; and from Panama to Valparaiso, and that two lines of steamers pass weekly to and fro; from New, York to the Isthmus, and from the lath - mils to San Francisco. -Within that time the great commercial port of - Bremen his also - ', seen constantly extending, and bringing to a regular and 'quicker communication, the con - nections of her Vast shipping with South America, California, and Australia. No par -of 'the, world has been left unexplored, and . -even in the- hitherto deemed impenetrable regions of frost, our countryman Kane has found a stretch of three' thousand miles of • open sea,' whose waves tossed by, the violence of the elements forever break against shores - of perpetual ice. •" ,What,' indeed, was the condition of the -re fined nations of antiquity, in comparison with that of the moderns in the -single respect of phyeliml comforts! , True the principal per sonages enjoyed what was then regarded as luxury; but in -many-respects, how mean and - smhry, would appear the splendor - of :kings • - compared with what many a private citizen is able to enjoy in these days, without bestowing , a thought - upon the high progress in civiliza tion of which it is the index. 'Whore was the , universal- diffusion of silk and cotton - fabrics which now furnish so large a portion of the clothing of the human fanny ? Even as , late as Qtteen, Elizabeth „silk stockings for ladies first came into use,, these previously ;worn having been of woollen cloth; cut to the obepe, and sewed together • and the extensive production and "consumption of our great - seutkerif staple was a consequence of the spinning jenny of Hargraves; the 'spinning , • ,frame of Arkwright, and the cotton-gin of ;' Whitney—all invented since the middle of the Aiit, century. - /Glass, though in some degree known in the • • • time of our Saviour, was yet of great rude : ' , ..ness in comparison with the resplendent crys -' . ,tal Productions of our day, which are in gene . rap domestic use, and for ornamental purposes. • • .The potato and Indian corn were first intro ' ,'"duced to the knowledge of Europeans with • the discovery of America, as well as the lux ury of tobacco; coffee and tea have cons into 'general use only since the Cape of Good Hope . was doubled by the Portuguese; and 'sugar extracted from cane has been in general use less than two centuries and a half. Superior . physical development may have been the con sequence of the ancient simplicity of life ' and manners ; but privation and destitution Were probably quite as great in proportion to numbers. What were the means of knowledge enjoyed by antiquity, in comparison with those at our ', command / Teaching-was oral in the 'schools of the philosophers, and their knowledge of , '. the world being so restricted, their basis for generalizirg was extremely narrow. Then their mechanical helps were few and insignifi. • cant., A Swarnmerdain end Lowenhoeck had . net yet 'opened uP,"bY microscopic research, that wondrous world 'of organic invisible to the naked eye;; nor had Galileo, by the in ': volition of ~the' teletienme,',and its direction, to , the heavene;doillonetrated the falttneis of the Ptolemaic „theory .of our planetary system, , I which recognised the earth as the centre, and established the truth of that 'of" Copernicus, which all succeeding observations have con firmed. No wonder that the ancient philoso itliers, when they left the domain Of geoinetry ,and pure mathematics, became such dreamers. - In painting and music the moderns have genie"' immeasurably beyond thorn. Nor was .paper yet Invented.' 'The' Egyptian , papyrus, or• waxen tablets 'and, 'the Stylus, formed the means of recording events, and the ;nighty lever of the press 'Mid not yet ap - pored, to move with -its -mute elegance the popular mind. - - - The thno hit's gone by, perhaps forever, for the erection of those great structures, whose ruins have come - dein to tie from antiquity, Sad monuments of the waste-of human effort.
