Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Oration Delivered Before the Cincinnati and the '76 Association: On the 4th July, 1854
It seemed to me that looking upon the international moment of today was to occupy its highest stand point. This morning, the roar of cannon on our long drawn coast, spoke not more loudly to the ocean's thunder than does a multitddinous welcome to the tread and hum of the van of nations sounding on our shore. Dawn could kindle no sublimer symphony.
