&, — INBEPENDENSE DAY. ese nevinnheoee gt Its Celebration in the Me- tropolis. weet PROGRAMME OF ” ARRANGEMENTS. Grand Parade, Music and Fireworks. ‘excursions by Land and by Water. To-day is the ninety-second year of the Indepen- @ence from British thraldom of these United States v1 America. Nearly a century ago the fathers of this now mighty empire of freemen, representing a population of less than three millions of people scat- tered over an immense territory, nearly one-half of ‘whom were disloyal to the cause of independence, declared to the world that all men were born “free and equal” and that representation should go with taxation. They also, amid the darkness and gloom of many military reverses, the star of the future eeeming to decline in the turmoil of political strife and the ambitious longings of military chieftains, With full faith in the justice of their cause, declared these United States free and independent. Almost from the hour on the fourth day of July, 1776, in which these unflinching men pledged their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honors to Mberty and independence the sun of hope blazed grand in the east, and since that year, with the exception of those in which the strength of our institutions was tried as was never that of any other government since the dawn of civilization, the great republic has increased in strength, wealth, intelligence and virtue, From a sinall and widely divided community of Jess than three millions, for the most part scattered along the Atlantic coast within a circle of thirteen colonies, it has expanded to a people numbering forty millions, inhabiting some forty States and Ter- ritories, the acres of which are equal to ali the na- tions of Europe, With canais and railroads stretch- ing over hundreds—nay, thousands—of miles, with Turlongs of electric wire almost passing computation, With cables connecting the shores of Europe and our seaboard and with which our people are in almost instant communication, with fleets of steamships ploughing the Pacific and the Atiantic oceans, with vast harvests of every food necessary to human exist- ence, such as Egypt counted not upon in her grandest ays, and with a future which no prophet (because of Its poesible exceeding grandeur and glory) can foretell, ‘we approach this day, from the wilds of the Penobscot to the Rio Grande, from the stormy shores of the rude Atlantic to the golden strands of the beautiful, ever-throbbing Pacific, the ninety-second anniver- gary of, America’s Independence, conscious that within her far-reaching borders no man can call bis fellow slave, and that before the law there ts no rivilege of rank, or wealth, or circumstance or rth; and at the ballot boxes, whether he exercises his will wisely or foolishly, the citizen has a yoice in appointing his rulers and evidently In making the laws which necessity and conssociatign require shall govern him, aasne ae Less than a century old, the United States stand foremost among the nations—equally great in War as im peace, powerful in resources and strong tnter- Dally as they are externally, respected by all and relying on their exceeding magnanimity, feared m4 Centuries hence what will not these Unites Btates be? Let no man speak of their future. That 1s in the hands of the Arbiter of nations, who ruleth Justly and wisely and to His own good end. PROGKAMME FOR THE DAY.
