President, Ladies and Gentleme^i : Invited by you, the Veterans of the war with Mexico, to take part in the celebration of the anniversary of the Inde- pendence of the United States of America, I must commence by offering you vtxy sincere expressions of gratitude for the unmerited honor which you have be- stowed upon me, in selecting me to raise on this memorable day, with the honors and solemnity of the occasion, the flags of Spain and Mexico, that in no remote time in the past have waved in t...his historical city with equal glory with •'The Banner of the Stars. "I do not come here to pronounce a discourse, nor much less to portray the history of this country, for it would be too arduous a duty, on an occasion like the present, which requires a more qualified and eloquent voice than mine to undertake the task. I desire to depend solely on those grand actions which, under the first of those glorious ensigns, the immortal Christopher Columbus opened to the eyes of humanity a new world, that much later was destined to be the classic laud of liberty, and which, by the ingratitude that always pursues the enterprising benefactors of the people, does not bear his name, but that of the illustrious navigator, Americus Vespucius.
