To the eastward, the vast wave of progressive civilization is fast rolling onwardtowards. her shore, beazing with it the demands for ceaseless activity, and the gems of national development. It is upon her territory that the wave of empire, which has for so many centuries heeqsaeeping westward, reaches the confines of that great sea from whoae westerr it parted. Northward she enjoys the immediate contact of the wonderful national progress of the great republic, while to the southward, within easy reach, lie the trade and wealth of South America, There is not a commercial country in the world which she cannot reach by easy water communication and in almhst a straight line. With such a mfgnificent geographical position, there should spring up great cities and commercial centers upon her territory for, as commerce advances, it will place her, with reference to the modern, trade of the world, in nearly the same position that Syria, Mesopotamia, and the whole of Western Persia occupied to its ancient trade. It was the East Indian and European trade currents, flowing over these countries, which gave birth to the cities of Selucia, Palmyra, Sidon, and her colony, Tyre. The same causes, later, forced into notice Byzantium and Alexandriq made Rome and Cartha e centres of tribution for East Indian products, and gave en ice wealtohf adnisdpower to turn back the Ottoman sword from Europe. No better illustration of the importance of occupying a central position, with reference to the reat trade currents, can be selected than by the comparison of P u rope in the latter part of the fifteenth with the beginning of the sixteenth century.<
