Our material prosperity at this time. I repeat. is wonderful. and our financial condition is the admiration of the world. Three hundred thousand emigrants every year coming into the United States from Europe. bringing some capital with them. and each and every one of them adding something to the productive capacity of the country. with our immense agriculturalresources. and those resources being rapidly developed. our manufacturing industries constantly multiplying. the political outlook giving assurance to every patriot that in a few years sectionalism and political proscription will give place to a broad and liberal nationalism. binding together the various States. and our millions of citizens in one great brotherhood. one perfect Unionwith such a country. with such a citizenship. every dollar of the national debt paid according to contract. labor freed from the excessive burdens of taxation now resting upon it. perfectly unencumbered. with the greatest facilities for accumulating wealth. we thus foresee a future for our country and our people surpassing in beauty. wealth. and power the dream of our prophetic fathers.
