A nation b made groat, not by ito fruitful arrea, but by the men who eaL S Liivate them; not by ita f..r«eta. but by the men who u.<- them: not by ^ " its miw*, but by the men who work ta them; not by its railway*, but by the I 1 who build and run th.-m Amerka was a great land when Columbus discovered it; Americans have made of tk j a great Nation. In 1776 our fathers had a vision of a V : new Nation "eanceived in liberty and - dedicated to the proposWaa that all men are' created equaL" Without ma army -they fought the greatest of ex- '' isting world empires that they might 7 -ealize this vision. A third of a <*■- * tury later, without a navy they fought ' the greatest navy in the world that they might win for their Nation tka freedom of the seas. Half a century later they fought through an imparal- " lelled Civil War that they, might establish for all time on this continent tba 5 inalienable right of life, liberty, and • the pursuit of happineea. A third of a century later they fought to emancipate an oppressed neighbor, and, victory j won. gave back Cuba to the Cuban*, sent an army of schoolmasters to educate for liberty the Filipinos, asked no war indemnity from their vanquished enemy, bqt paid him liberolly for his property. Meanwhile they offered land freely to any farmer who would live upon and cultivate it, opened to foreign immigrants on equal terms the door of industrial opportunity, and provided by universal taxation for universal education. The cynic who can see in this history only a theme for his egotistical — satire is no true American, whatever his parentage, whatever his birthplace. He who looks with pride upon this M«tory which his fathers have written by J their heroic deeds, who accepts with » ' gratitude the inheritance which they have bequeathed to him, and who higb- „ ly resolves to preserve this inherit ince ^ unimpaired and to pass it on to his de- £ scendants enlarged and enriched, is a "i, true .American, be his birthplace or hia parentage what, it may. **• Lyman Abbott.

The man who has the genius, the courage, honesty and the statesmanship to dense and present to his countrymen, a measure of this kind would be but fittingly honored by election to the Presidency of the United States for he performed a service of Inestimable value to every man. woman and child in the country - Two Irishmen employed on a mon-o'-war, finding things a bit slow one morning. decided to liven them up a little. So Dennis, instructed by Mike, placed astride one of the big guns and held a deck-pail over the muzzle. "Now, said Dennis, "let 'er go!" Whereupon Mike touched her off and she went, sure enough — likewise Dennis and the pail. When the officer in charge came running up, he said: "Michael, what has become of your friend?" "Oh" said Mike, "he just wint after "I 'see, but when is he coming back!" I -Well," answered Mike, "I'm sure I can't tell exactly, but if he comes back as quick as he wint. he'll be back yisterday." — Pathfinder. • IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF THE 1 UNITED STATES, FOR THE DISi TRICT OF NEW JERSEY.
