As this was originally a Dutch colony, the character of that people, and their influence upon our institutions, 18 demand particular notice. These colonists came liere in tlie heroic age of Holland. She had then asserted and maintained her national independence in an une- qual contest of eighty years' duration against the co- lossal power of Spain, which, under Charles the Vth and his immediate successors, overshadowed and threatened the liberties of all Europe. This war with Spain excited the
...admiration of the world. It should also excite its gratitude. It was a contest for civil and religious liberty in behalf of mankind. After the close of this struggle, Plolland battled single handed against the combined powers of France and England. It was the age in which she produced Maurice, the greatest warrior of his times ; De Ruyter and Tromp, the ablest naval commanders ; Grotius, who is yet authority on international law ; and Barnevelt and the De Witts, the purest and most skillful statesmen.
