' - G, B. LAMAR, President of the lion.'; of Macon Augusta, Ga. 21 st May, 1827 *-31 BY MYRON BARTLET. atfott* DELIVERED IN MACON, GEORGIA, On the 4th of July, 1827. By JOHN G. POLHILL, Esq, STRIKE, Sons of Columbia, strike again the harp of your rejoicing—but twine around it the weeds of mourning. Let the heartfelt smiles, of your joy he calmly tempered with ihe tears of grief—for you have again mingled your souls in unison, to sing ihe glory of a na tion’s Jubilee—lo chaunt the dirge of a nation’s sorrow. Can we, my countrymen, pass over the events of this auspicious occasion, without directing our contemplations to that inscrutable dispensation of divine Providence, which has, at once, mado this the day of our sorrow and rejoi cine? But once has the sun performed his annual revolution round his orbit, since amidst the shouts and acclammatioiN of this day, the spirits of Jefferson and Adams winged their flights beyond the bourne of time, to receive, in brighter spheres, “the inestimable recom pense of their achievementt.” How sublime, how interesting, and how instructive, is this contemplation ! Behold, mv countrymen, mil lions of freemen, assembled from every quar ter of our wide dominions—bowing down in thoir sacred temples, and breathing out their benedictions to Heaven for their deliverance— then turning your eyes from this sublime spec tacle, raise your imatrinntions tosublimcr spec tacles above. Behold the sister spirits of those devoted patriots—dropping the shackles of mortality—bidding adieu to the rejoicings on earth—and almost, like Elisha, translated with out the process of death—winging their starry flights to the portals of heaven— the golden gates open wide to receive them—louder halle lujahs burst from the trump of ;he archangel around the 'hrone of the Almighy—while the spirit of WASHINGTON merits and wel comes them to the regions of nevir-ending fe licity ! ! How impressive, and how lasting, should be the lesson here taught as, my coun trymen. Adams and Jefferson wire cotempo raries and fellow sufferers in the groat cause of our political emancipation. Thejme is said to have been the author of the splentld DECLA RATION we this day commeir.morate—the other its able and eloquent expositor and advo cate. Many points of their political creeds were as widely different, ns tin extremities of the poles. But in the great objects of their country’s good, they went heart and hand to gether—together they faced tire frowns of tho ippressor—together they breasted the storm of idversity—together, and with united energies, they hurled hack the bolts of oppression-upon the throne of tho tyrant—together they reaped tho fruits of their holy warfare—together, they lived, blessing and blessed by their country- together they died—and fled, together, to the celestial regions of tho blessed ! And where is the man, who can withhold from either, the meed of his warmest love and admiration ? Where is the man, who, on this hallowed occa sion, can separate his heart from the hearts of his countrymen ? If such there be, let him re tire to the frofcen clime of Lapland, and there, wrapping himself in Tartarean gloom, let him brood over the blackness of hisown meditations. We envy thee not thy happiness—Come not bore to disturb our rejoicing !—But know, oh man, whoever thou art, thy puny efforts cannot mar the glory of their fame, nor disturb for one moment tho repose of their disembodied spirits. The seal of Heaven is set to their immortality, and generations yet unborn shall rise to bless their memories. “TAe meanest rill—the noblest river, “Roll mingling with their fame forever." Elevate your souls, my counirymcn, in grate ful and holy contemplation to the supreme gov ernor of the universe, and read in his counsels the high dostinies of vour country. Like that great and good disciple,. who was the forerun ner of our ascended Redeemer, the immortal WASHINGTON seemed to have been dele gated by Heaven, as the precursor of that polit ical millonium, which was to bring “ peace on earth and good will toward men." “ The sword of the Lord and of Gideon," was with him—the walls of Jericho crumbled before the blast of tho trumpet of our Joshua—the throne of tho tyrant tottered to its base—and. the dia dems of the Roynl. George, like tho eyes of Saul of Tarsus, before the vision from on high, were eclipsed and benighted before the bright flashes of tho spirit of Freedom—'he minions of legitimacy shrunk back, and fell before tho light jif his countenance—a new era burst upon the astonished world—new impulses wero giv en to the spirit of man—and the human soul scemod to awake as from tho thraldom of ages. Tho propositions, that all men are by nature free and equal—that the people are the legiti mate source of all power, and capable of self government, attracted the attention of tho world—and liberty, equality and independence were established on tho unshaken basis of rep resentative republicanism. This was tho groat work accomplished by Washington nnd his deathless cotemporaries. And when tiur ven erable Patriarch had performed the object of his mission—when he had loti behind him tho affectionate precepts and the practical lessons of his wisdom nnd his goodness, and the mantle of his greatness had descended to his glorious successors, “ho was gathered to his fathers,” n- mid tho tears and benedictions of his children. The history of the evonu wo are assembled to commemmorate is familiar to this enlightened audience; and its details.might bo deemed dull and uninteresting in this day of enlarging views and expanding intellect. But in contemplat ing the causes whiclt gave rise to the Amorican Revolution, and tho important moral influence it has exerted in the world, there is much tochcor ifnd nniimtotho statospnn, tha philo sopher and the Christian. Nor do wo conceive Volume 1 JVo. 38. that we can be charged with national vanity, or presumption against the Almighty—should we regard that revolution and its extensive moral results, ns a part of that grand scheme of the Creator, by which lie is to accomplish the sub lime and munificent purposes of his wisdom.— The characters and biography of the three great men wo have already glanced at, would seem sufficiently to establish this proposition. Bat carry your views some years beyond the period in which they flourished, and which thoy have rondered immortal by ihuir deeds, and the pro position forces itself upon our minds, with an irresistibility of argument, which seems to put refutation at defiance. lu whatever region you contemplate man—whether on the romantic hills of Scotland, »r the enchanting plains of the Emerald Isle—on the mountains of Swit zerland, or the lowlands of Holland—whether on the rugged and snowclad hills of Norway, or the fertile plains and delightful vineyards of France, Italy, and Spain—you will find his in dividual character, in the social relations of life essentially the same. But every nation has a system of civil polity peculiar to itself; and in dividual character is more or less moulded and influenced by their civil institutions. But their political characters will be found as various as their forms of government, or the climates they inhabit; and as the government approach es to the true standard of freedom, man will be found to assume that lofiy cliuracterof Indepen dence and intellect, which are the distinguish ing traits and the noble destiny of his nature. What was the state of the old world at the dawn of the American Revolution? Nay—go beyond it. And do we find in all the diversifi ed forms of government, that existed in Europe, in Asia and Africa, any thing on which the mind can dwoli with pure and unalloyed plea sure? It is true, that, in the long line of chro nology, the Republics of Greece and Rome, and a few of more modern date, present lucid intervals, upon which the mind can dwell, with enchanting, but momentary delight. Even there the divine light of Independence and e« quality, shone not in its noonday splendor.— The minds of the noblest bowed to the dictates of wealth and power. Rome had her patricians and her plubians—Cicero became tha victim of his virtues—the sweet Bard of Mantua wlas de pendent on his patron—and Horace, the prince of Poets, introduces his immortal works with the praises of his protecting Mecenas, whom ho extols for his long line of royal ancestry. At one time indeed, tho spirit of Brutus seemed to have broken the chains of despotism, at a blow, but the ambitious sotll of a crafty and aspiring Mark Anthony persecuted him to death, mid riveited them agn'ui wui,« double fastening up on the peojile. The political sirtion was not yet to have arrived, “and tho sceptro departed from Judah.” The Northern lvve of Goths and Vandals poured in upon them—and their sacred temples—the splendid monuments of the arts aud sciences—nay, the lofty energies of the soul itself, were crushed beneath the de stroying hand of the spoiler. Those delightful regions of literature mid science, where enrap tured Senates hung on the lips of Tullv and Demonsthencs—those hallowed spots, where the champions of the cross preached tho eter nal Gospel to the repenting Gentile, nnd the inspired Paul caused Felix to tremble, at the divinity of his eloquence-presented one gloomy scene of ruin nnd degradation. An appalling interval of darknes ensued, aud the human mind seemed almost to have sunk to annihilation.— But the purposes of the Most High wore yet to be accomplished. Here nnd there the glim mering light of this soul, “like a star in tho midst of the Ocean,” cast a faint lustre on the gloomy waste of miud that surrounded it: oth ers would catch the inspiring beam, and tho mind began again to emerge from its leaden lethargy. Still her struggle with matter produ ced a fearful contest. Whilst tho devotee of light and knowledge, in the most abject pover ty and retiring obscurity, was endeavoring to dig out tho lore of antiquity, from the rubbish, which tho hand of barbarism had hoapoJ upon if, tilting Knights and feudal Barons waged a furious warfare for physical power nnd chiv- ulric honor. . Thus, while the few pursued the divino light of knowledge, the physical energies of the great mass of mankind were absorbed in the accumulation of wealth and the extension of territory. To this chaos of tho mind, suc ceeded the uncouth jargon of the schools, which, though itself chaotic, produced beneficial re sults. Tho mind's eye, by degrees, pierced tho dark film lhat clouded it. . A spirit of en quiry was awakened. Societies, for the pro motion of the arts and sciences, were at length formed. And tho sublime efforts of Locke, Milton and others, combined with tho art of printing, promised, to fill up this dark interreg num of science, and to reinvigorato the paralyzed onergies of the soul. Tho rich and powerful, but iguorant conqueror, perceived the rapid pro gress and the alarmiuginfluencoofmind,and soon conceived the project, of enlisting intellectual forco in support of the baser principles of phy sical power. Tho fool soon became the patron of the wise—and tho wise, abandoning the no bler freedom of tho soul, prostituted bis mental energies to the.enslaving views of his patron, This monarchy was again reared upon a basis, at once powerful and appalling. This hideous aristocracy foresaw that the shining lights of science, unless checked in its glorious career, would soon disenthral tho spirit of tho people, and strip them of tho splendid gewgaws and the dazzling pageantry of |>bwer. Tho degrad ed minions of science, to maintain their own places, wero subservient to tho views of thoir abominable masters, and promulgated "the di vine right of Kings" from the pupil and the rostrum. To maintain power, they forget right: and the people must bo kept in the most ab ject and profound ignorance of their privileges. The freedom of speech and of the press were restraiued. The holy temples, erected for the earthly dwelling of the Most High, were' polluted by tho craftiness of a timeserving priesthood—and c»en the lids of that holy vo lume, which is best calculated to free the spirit of the captive, were sealed from the hands of the people—the pure lights of literature, sci ence and Christian knowledge, wei^» shut out from their eyes, lest their heavenly effulgence should eclipse the glittering baubles of power, and expose the fiendlike corruption that sur rounded a throne. But rejoice, ye sons of Republicanism and Christianity ; and lift up your heads; for tho day of your redemption is approaching. Hith erto, said the Almighty, to those dark waters of bigotry and despotism, hitherto shall ye go, and no farther; and here shall your proud waves be staid. Go, spirit of Columbus, and guide my people across the trackless waters-. The sea shall open for the passage of Israel.... but the chariot of Pharaoh and his host shall he overwhelmed end destroyed in its returning waters. Lot mind triumph over matter. iJt there be light, said the Almighty, and there was light. The divino emanations of his all per vading spirit burst in upon the souls of our forefathers, where thoy groaned, beneath tho yoke of oppression and the insupportable bonds of religious intolerance. Buckling on the pan oply of the cross, nnd bearing in their bauds the helmet of faith and freedom, thev yielded to the high behest....and the rock of Plymouth still stands, the monument of their deliverance from the house of D igon, and the spot, where a grateful posterity shall forever perform their annual pilgrimage, to commemorate thoir vir tues and their sufferings, aud to offer the adora tion of their souls to their almighty deliverer. The same light of tho mind which animated the first adventurers to America, still guided them through the difficulties of a wild and un cultivated coast. Placed in a situation in which every thing depended upon their own resour ces of thought and ingenuity, the cultivation of the mind was as necessary, and kept equal pace with the cultivation of tho forest. Removed from the splendor and corruption of European courts, the eye was no longer dazzled by the aped divinity of kings, and the mind no longer taught to regard tho pompous pageant of aris tocracy, ns an essential ingredient of greatness,’ ora necessary support of tho dignity and hip- ainess of their government. Keeping always n view the causes which had driven from Eu rope, nnd animated always'by the same spirit of fortitude, their offspring wero reared in that manly firmness of thought aud of action, which early taught them a clear perception of their rights, and prepared them to resist the first ag gressions of arbitrary power. . / 11 is to causes tike these, uaun itm guidance of Heaven, that we aro to trace the- rise anil progress of the American Revolution, nnd A- merican Independence. And, my country men, it is to the same important causes, oper ating, by an unchangeable law of nature, tjio same moral results, that we are to look for tho security, happiness, and prosperity of our tiohlo institutions. In a country like our’s, whero every man forms un integral part of the govern ment—where tho rich and the poor are enti tled to the same and equal privileges—where success in private prosperity and political pro motion depend upon personal exprtion nnd are equally the rewards of personal morit—every thing must depend upon the cultivation of the, intellect—the perfection of morality, nnd tho love of freedom. This love of liberty is the strongest passion of the human soul, nnd is im planted in our bosoms by the hand of Omni potence itself. But, like every other nffcction, it should bo tempered with virtue aud intelli gence. It is to the moral, what the electric fluid is, to the physicat world; and, was, no doubt, diffused throughout it, for thesamo wise and important object—to purify tho moral at mosphere—-to expel tho murky clouds of big otry, superstition and ignorance—to elevate the spirit of man, and assimilato him to 1iis -God—to flash tho lightnings of his vengeance upon tlih'proud rebellious heads of tho oppres sors of his poople. In our country, this sub- lime principle has been graduated on.tho hap piest scale. Behold, my countrymen, its a- mazing effects in its glorious moral influence upon the world. It has extended, and is still extending its mighty conquests. Yes, and it shall reach that grand climacteric of perfection, when tho clouds of despotism, bigo try nnd ignorance, shall roll away before .lie sun o if freedom, and as they retire before his beams thesplcndid rainbow of his promise, with its pure and mingling hues ofdelighr,shallspan the whole earth in its nmplo arch, aud tell to its inhabitants • that tho flood of despotism shall no more o’er- whclm them forever. Perhaps the European speculator may call this enthusiasm. Be it so. And who, on such , a subject, would not be an'enthusiast ? The progress of the human mind....tho promulga tion of tho Christian religion^ andjho extent sionof liberal and rcjhiblicnn principles, since tho close* of tho American revolution, have been signal nnd triumphant. England, the ty rant in that contest, has been among the first 10 acknowledge tho Independence of tho South American Republics. Who would have be lieved this story a half century ago? The re cent appointment of Mr. Canning to the Prime Ministry of England, and the extraordinary changeraf her cabinet, would have been regard ed, in 177(3, as a political anomaly, that could • not by nny possibility have occurred. And to', whatever causes others may choose to attribute it, tho Amorican peoplo must regard it as that powerful renci on of tho moral influence-of our government;- which seems to have given newe vigor to tire spirit aud energy of the soul inx Europe. It is a divine influence, which seem*, to put the very will of kings at defiance.
