You have borne the flag of yourcountry from the time when it was ridiculed as a piece of stripedbunting, until it has come to be known and respected wherever the rayof civilization has reached; and your canvass-winged birds of commercehave borne civilization into regions, where it is not boasting to say, but for your prowess it would not have gone. You have a right to beproud of your achievements as well on the land as the sea. Well mayyou point as you do with satisfaction, to your school house...s and yourwork-shops, and to the fruits they have borne on the forum and in thecouncil chamber, and in the manufactures which have increased thecomforts of our own people, and have encircled the globe to findexchangeable products required at home. Those are the greatest andmost beneficent triumphs--the triumph of mind over matter. These arethe monuments of greatness, which resist both time and circumstance. I have spoken of diversity among the people of the United States; yetthere is probably greater similitude than is to be found elsewhereover the same extent of country, and in the same number of people.
