Wo tender thorn our hearty assistance mid good will and trust that tho '2Sth annual fair will go down into history as ono of tho best over held by Webster count .

ThU 1 our one great holiday and Uoes much, when properly conducted to artouso patriotism and deepen the love we havo for our country. Wo are justly proud of tho heroism of the men of '7(1, of tho achievements of tho U. S. gov ernment since that time and all our freedom and liboity, but tho eolobia tion that docs not also impress upon Character of the Puritan Fathers of New England. , Ono of tho most prominent fea tures which distinguished our fore fathers, was Jlielr determined resist ance to oppression. They seemed born and brought up, for tho high and special purpose of showing to the world that tho civil and religious rights of man, the rights of self-gpverniuont, of conscience, and independent thought, arc not merely things to be talked of, and woven into theories, but to be adopted witli tlie whole strength and aidor of tho mind, and felt in the pro foumlost recesses of the lie.ut, and cart led out into tho general life, and made the foundation of practical use fulness, and visible beauty, hh, i t,.m. nobility. Liberty with them, was an ob ject of too serious desire and stern re solve, to be personified, allegorized, and enshrined. They made no goddess of it, as tho ancients did: they had no time nor inclination for such trilling; they felt that liberty was tlie simple birthright of every human creature; they culled It so; they claimed it us such; they reverenced and hold It fast as the unalienable gift of tho Creator, which was not to be surrendered to power, nor sold for wages. II. It was theirs, as men; without it, they did not ostoem themselves men; more than any other privilege or pos session, it was essential to their happi ness, for it was essontlal to their ori ginal nature; and therefore they pre ferred it above wealth, and ease, and country; and that they might enjoy and exercise it fully, they forsook houses, and lands, and kindred, their homos, their nutivesoil.iind their fath ers' gl'ltU'K. They left all these; they left hngland, which, whatever it might havo been called, was nut to thorn n land of freedom; thoy launched forth on tho pathlehhiccan. tho wide fath omless ocean, soiled nut by tho earth beneath, and bounded, all round ami above, only by hoaven: and It seemed to them like tlmt better and sublitnor freedom, which their citiulry knew not, both of which thoy hud tho con ception and image in their hearts; and after a toilsome and painful voyage, they came to a hard and wintry coast, unfruitful and desolate, but unguarded and boundless; its calm silence inter rupted not the ascent of their prayers; I am tilling an old tale: but it i- mu which iuust be told when we speak of those men. It i- to bo added, that Ihi-y transmitted their prlneiplts to their children, and that peopled by such a race, our ' country was ulwajs free. So long as its inhabitants wore unmolested by the mother eountiy. in tlie exorcise of their important lights thoy submitted to the form of Uuglisll governuii'iit; but when thoe riuhts weio invaded, they spurned even the form away. Tlds act was the Revolution, which came "of course, and spontaneously, npd hud nothing in it of the wonder ful or unforeseen. Tho wonder would l.i.vc been, if it had not oc curred. It was, indeed, a happy and glorious event, but by no means un natural; and I intend no slight to the reverend actois in tho devolution, when 1 assert that their fathers before them were as free as they every whit in froo. The principles of thu Revolution were not tho suddenly acquired pro perl j of a fow bosoms; thoy were abroad in the kind in the ages bt-foic. they had always been taught, like Un truths of the Bible: thoy had descend ed fi oni father to son, dow n from those primitive days, whnn tlie pilgrim es tablished in his simple dwelling, and seated at his blazing tire, piled high from the forest which shaded his door. repeated to his listening children the stoiy of his wrongs and his resistance, and bade them rejoice, though the wild winds and tlie wild beasts were howling without, that they had notli inif to fear from gioul men's oppression. lioio are tlie beginnings of tlie Uovolulion. Kvery settler's hearth was a school of independence: the scholars were apt. and the lcsons sunk deeply: and thus it came that our country was always free; it could not be other than free. As deeply seated as was tho prin ciple of liberty and resistance to arbi trary power, in tho breasts of the Puritans, it was not more so titan their piety and sense of teliglousobligation. Thoy were emphatically a people whose tiod was the Lord. Their form of government was as sti icily theomi lical. if direct communication be ex cepted, as was that of tho .lows: itisi. niucli that it would be dilllcillt to suy. where there was any civil authority among thein entirely distinct fi i co- i lesiasticiil jurisdiction. Whenever a few of them settled a towiu they immediately gathered themselves into a cnureli: and their elders were magistrates, and their code of lawswas tho Pentateuch. These were forms, it is true, but forms which faithfully indicated principles and feelings; for no people could havo adopted such forms, who were not thoroughly imbued with the spirit, and bent on the practice, of religion. Cod was their King; and they re garded him as truly and literally so, as if ho had dwelt in a visible palace in tho midst of their state. Tiny were his devoted, resolute, humble subjects; they undertook nothing which they did not beg of him to prosper; thoy accomplished nothing without render ing to him tlie praise; they suffered nothing without earryingtheirsorrows to his throne: thoy ate nothing which they did not implore him to bless. Their piety was not merely external: it was sincere: it had the proof of a good tree in bearing good fruit: it pro duced ami sustained a strict molality. Their tenacious purity of manners and speech obtained for them, in the mother country, their name of Puri tans, which, though given in derision, was as honorable an appellation as was over bestowed by man on man. That there were hypocrites among them, is not to be doubted; but they were rare; the men who voluntarily exiled themselves to an unkown coast, and endured there every toil and hard ship for conscience' sake, and that they might servo (Jod in their own mannor, were not likely to sot eon- science at dofhiucc, and make tho ser vice of (Jod a mockery; they wore not likely to be, neither were they, hypo crites. I do not know that It would be arrogating too much for them to say, that, on tho extended surface of the globo, thoro was not a slnglo com munity of men to bo compared with them, in tho respocts of deep religious impressions and an exact performance of moral duty. -Uopritit IKlii.
