Excerpt from Columbia and Canada: Notes on the Great Republic and the New Dominion, a Supplement to Westward by Rail;" In 1776, it took ten days to go from Washington's camp before the town of Boston to the Hall in the city of Philadelphia where the Delegates from the thirteen United Colonies held their meetings; the same distance can be traversed now in as many hours. Less time is now required to cross the Atlantic than was expended a century ago in journeying between the capital of Massachusetts and the city of brotherly love. The shortest letter which our forefathers ever sent by post was written in a longer time than is now occupied in transmitting a message by telegraph between the continent of Europe and the continent of North America. Thus a peaceful revolution has been wrought which is without parallel or precedent. Had it been achieved at the middle of the eighteenth century, the revolution of 1776 might never have occurred, or might have been accomplished without deplorable shedding of blood. Certainly, the baleful slaughter at New Orleans, in 1814, would not have been a subject of unavailing regret.
