We have more printing presses in operation, and more printed volumes in the hands of our people, than the whole world had on the day of the Concord fight. More newspapers are printed in the city of Boston every day than the whole world then produced. Smce that day, Amer- ica has produced the steamboat and adopted the loco- motive, and there are more steam engines employed in Massachusetts than were then used in the world. It would be gratifjdng to know how far these means of physical comfort, e...ase, and improvement, have been employed, it is our imperative duty to in- 73 quire how far they may he and ought to be em- ployed, for the moral and intellectual advancement of a people so highly favored of heaven. The proper limits of this occasion forbid me to enter upon a new investigation ; I can only express the hope that we should have no reason to blush at the results, if we had time to pursue it.
Over how broad a portion of the world have we extended the advantages we ourselves enjoy ! Our domain unites the noblest valley on the surface of the globe, competent to grow food for human beings many more than now dwell on the face of the earth, with an eastern wing, fitted for the site of the principal manufacturing and commercial power of existing Cliristendom, and a western flank well sit- uated to hold the same position on the Pacific, when Asia shall reneAV her youth, and Australia shall have risen to the level of Europe.
