Did you ever think of this fact? The people of nearly every other country are migratory. Emigration and exile are painful but common household words in all Old World lands. The breezes that blow inland on the vaunted British Islands carry the sighs and sobbed adieus of British subjects. Other people are emigrants. and this Heavenblessed laud is to them the haven of rest. Our people. thank Heaven. are not forced out on the pitiless ocean to seek homes and trade and labor in foreign lands. The vacant chair of the adventurous emigrant stands a monument of regret in nearly every European home. Let us avoid the causes that produced this mournful exodus from other lands. We have a Europe of our own. and the true cause why there is not upon the high seas the American flag as plentifully as that of these maritime Old World nations is that since the war we have been developing this vast continent.
