In regard of the power, prosperity,

estimated at ten millions, and every

venue, wealth, and power, is flourish

M While in her power and resources,
as they are illustrated in this speech,
the nation of the United States exhibits
the vigor of ripe years, slie, in these sen
timents of active humanity, seems, to
our thought, to preserve the fresh feel
