This doctrine had, he be- Heved. come at Inst to be a popular ene, not only in New York, but elsewhere; and the danger waa not now ia its utterance, but In its cuppression. Ia the sentiment as read, be poticed an alluston to the compromise measures: of 1850. The doctrine waa there, and was the basis of the compromise mensures. ‘The history of the national demoeracy of New York, although {t went bebind that time, might be said to commence there, Among the rames cf those tiom whom letters ha? been rv- crived, were some to be honored for the part they tock im those measure, and in the solution of the coetzine that the people should regulate their own affairs, On an occasion like toat they were celebrating, how appropriate was it to recall other his- torical ceeurrences, to show that the heroes who alorned thelr pages were not sil chieftains—that peace haa her heroes 84 well as war.

They fally realized that It the objects yet undertaken by man, the solid osta- ‘hment of free institutions bad been the most difficult. ‘They ware familiar with the melancholy experience of the early repnblies, who had perished either trom inhe- rent defects in their own composition, or from their in. lity to withstand the pressure of contiguous confirct- ing inetitutions. No wonder then that to the consuin wation of thetr labors the philosophic statesmen of ti old world turned with eager and impetiant guze to 24% tain, if possible, the fate of republican instivations wnece they bad beem poived upon the oroad foundation ofpe- puler equality, and,inaugurated by a written constitution and the repreventative principle. History furnishes no porallel where the progress of any people has been at- tended with the same great resulte that hove thas fer marked oor developement since the adopuon ot the constitution. Our thirteen original states have been aug- mented by more than double their original number. Our population has swelled from three to nearly thirty millions; our topnoge is not equalled by any other nation; our canvase whitens every ocean; our keela plovgl every deep. Fach succeeding year marks still farther recognitien by all clasees of the of the beneficent piewsings that dow from unrestricted commercial intercourse with for eign States, When the constitution was fremed, we pos ser-ed not an ineh of territory apon the Pacific or the Gulf ot Mexico, whilst the whole region west of the Mine- iasippi, togetmer with ite mouth, se well as both its shores for several hundred miles, belonged to ‘foreign powers. Amajorityot the great matosmen of that aay, who were founding a government which they fondly hop: a would perpetuate the blessings of civil and re! a8 Mberty, foresaw our manifest destiny, and resisted every attempt which had for ith object the restriction of our limits tothe then anaes At that date our coast extended only from Maine to (i ‘and all of our States then existing wereJ bounded partly on the east by the Atlantic. Now, the of, the Unien fleats upon the shore of either ocean. It waves proudly over the whole of the Mississippi Valley, and is saluted by grateful free- men from the great lakes of the North to the Gulf of Mexico. While Europe is torn and distracted by conflict- ing armies and wasting their etrength in vain endeavors to nystematize fraud and oppression, Amorican institu- tions are triumphantly advane! to their ultimate and commanding position in the of mankind. We have already received six acquisitions of foreign trritory since the adoption of the eonstituiion. Louindana, ander the administration of Mr. Jefferson, by troaty with France, in 1808; Florida, under Mr. Monroe, by treaty with Spain, in 1821; Oregon, by the kame treaty, and at the same period, if not included in the cession of Louiriana. Texas, under Mr. Polk, by compact with that public, in December, 1845, confirmed by treaty with Mexico in 1848. New Mexico, Utah aud California by Mr. Volk, in May, 1848; the Messilla Valley under President Vieree, by treaty with Mexico in 1864. By fart he most extensive of these acquisitions was that of President Volk, which embraced a region of territory greater in extent, with overy variety of soil, surface and production. than tho entire area of the Union et the adoption of the con- stitution, Tt is Just cause of exaltation for us that all theee expansions cf our territory have taken place undor democratic odmint«trations, commescing with Mr. Jef. ferson and terminating tor the presoat with the extating chief mogirtrate, ‘Ihe great principle of expansion ia- volving the acqui of Texas was the main question cecided by the Americnn people in the peaceful struggle that terminated in the election of President Polk, od thia policy may now be rewarded as a settled doctrine of the American Union.
