Dean Stanley delivered a presidential ad- dress to the members at the Midland Insti- tute at Birmingham. on Monday. Duo. 16. He thought that. instead oi enlarging on the common-place topics 0! education or litera- ture. which would be equally advantageous at any time or in any place. it would be as well to say a few words suggested by a recent journey to the United States. He confined. himseli in agreet measure to that side 01 American life which. perhaps. was 0! more interest to him than to most travellersâ€"its purely historical aspect; that aspect present. ed by the original Eestern States. to which his journey was confined. It was a part of history of which, tor wheteVer reason. Englishmen were strangely ignorantâ€"at least he spoke tor himseltâ€"untll their imagination had been touched by the actual sight ol that vast con. tinent. with its inspiring suggestions and recollections. He noticed in Americans. as a merited peculiarity. apparent almost from the first. the singular buoyancy and elasticity both of the national and individueleherac- ters. It might be the product 0! their bril- liant. exhilarating. invigorating climate; it might be the accompaniment ol the vast horizon opened by their boundless territory; it might be partly the youth of the nation: but its existence was unquestionable. It at times there was something almost oi levlty in the readiness with which misiortunes were thrown ct! and life b-guu over again; it at times the more sober pert of the nation was depressed by the sense of the difiionltisa which they had to encounter; yet. on the whole. this spring at vitality. iltnrned to good account. must be at incelcuable Virtue in this working world. where the imagination still played so [ago it part. and where so much was given to crnfidence of victory. even more than to victory itsell. It per- chahce the United States had too much 0! it. we. it might be. had too little; and this con- fidence of Americans in their own political. ecclesiastical and social system was a warning to us to rise aboVe thoeedolelul lementetions with which in these days we otti-n heard citizens and Churchmen and Christians 0! England despair of our country. our Church and our religion. Secondly. there were the elements of that character which they pos- sessed in common with the English race. with which their past history showed it to be in so many respects identical. In spite of some dark and sinister features in both countries, there was on the whole the same keen appre- ciation ol the delights of pure domestic lilo. In spite of the lawlessness which was perhaps the inevitable outburst of the eflervesceuce oi communities not yet fully organized. there was on the whole in the mass of the people something of the same sell-control. and common senso. and love 0! freedom. and obedience to law on which we prided ourselves. and which we were glad to recognize in our descendants. And these points of contract between the mother country and the daughter States not only are themselves encouraging. but they derive additional torce from the guarantee which they give that the union between the two. though severed by the revolution of the last century. is in the essential elements of character and social sympathy yet unbroken. No doubt we had much to learn trons America; but it this closeness of sympathy and homogeneouaness of race was still maintained they would always have some. thing to learn from us. and would. hetrusted be not unwilling to receive it. It was a solemn responsibility which the recollection of American history impressed upon us. that, as we were their fathers. so. in large measure, ”IAN I'I'ANLIY ON AQIIIU‘.
