Book excerpt: Excerpt from Souvenir and Official Programme of the Centennial Celebration of George Washington's Inauguration as First President of the United States The Constitution. i. Tyrant winter's icy fetters, wherewith Alpine heights are belted, Under God's free summer sunshine fall away. Slowly, surely as the season comes, his massive chains are melted, And a single drop is born of every ray; Then confluent in their currents sing the little brooklets hurrying To unite and form a torrent in its power, Rushing headlong down the mountain, every opposition burying, Growing stronger and yet stronger hour by hour, Till at last their force is gathered in the broad and placid river Flowing noiselessly and steadily along, Messenger of peace and plenty from the glorious All-giver, Though it moves without a roar, without a song. II. So, in genesis of nations swells the human tide forever Of resistance to the wrongs on which men brood, Trickling first, then drop by drop of individual endeavor, Finding volume till there falls a mighty flood. Strong enough to move a thousand mills if Titans could but store it, Making chasms out of each and every crack, Sweeping many an ancient barrier from the course that lies before it, Leaving chaos - but a pathway - in its track; Then its violence is swallowed in a People's peaceful yearning For respect which only dignity can draw, And the Freedom-loving spirit, noisy effervescence spurning, Finds its triumph in the fixed domain of Law. III. Fitly we commemorate with stirring songs of exultation Revolution's call to arms, our bells all ring, Peal of cannon, burst of fireworks, brings to mind the Declaration, Which renounced allegiance to Britain's King, But the birth of statehood in our peerless written Constitution Calls for heartfelt paeans of deeper music now. That we see in it the final unimpeached and sure solution Of the governmental problem, all allow. Thence arose the system under which a proud and fearless nation Swears to guarantee the weakest in his right; Hymns of praise unto Jehovah dedicate our celebration, The centennial of a dawn that has no night!

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Nation's Birthday: Chicago's Centennial Celebration of Washington's Inauguration; April 30, 1889 The committee intrusted with the publication of a volume as a souvenir of Chicago's celebration of the centennial anniversary of the inauguration of George Washington as President of the United States, and the beginning of constitutional government in America, have completed their task. They now have the honor to offer it, through the General Executive Committee, to the public. They claim for it no literary merit save that which it owes to the distinguished citizens of the republic who lent their assistance to the celebration. It is a compilation. Out of the hundreds of earnest, thoughtful sermons that were preached on the occasion, out of the hundreds of eloquent orations that were delivered, they have chosen such as in their judgment would best inculcate the lessons which it was the purpose of the celebration to convey. They have been compelled by the limitations of a single volume to omit many addresses that were in every way worthy of preservation, equally worthy, perhaps, with some that are to be found in its pages. With such an embarrassment of riches the work of selection was a difficult one, and it will be remarkable if they have made no mistakes. It is the hope of the committee that this souvenir volume may obtain wide circulation. They believe that its pages contain patriotic germs which should sink deep into the minds and hearts of the young, and hereafter bear fruit that will be for the glory of the republic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Among the vicissitudes incident to life, no event could have filled me with greater anxieties than that of which the notification was transmitted by your order, and received on the fourteenth day of the present month.” With these words to the assembled members of the Senate and House of Representatives on April 30, 1789, George Washington inaugurated the American experiment. It was a momentous occasion and an immensely important moment for the nation. Never before had a people dared to invent a system of government quite like the one that Washington was preparing to lead, and the tensions between hope and skepticism ran high. In this book, distinguished scholar of early America Stephen Howard Browne chronicles the efforts of the first president of the United States of America to unite the nation through ceremony, celebrations, and oratory. The story follows Washington on his journey from Mount Vernon to the site of the inauguration in Manhattan, recounting the festivities—speeches, parades, dances, music, food, and flag-waving—that greeted the president-elect along the way. Considering the persuasive power of this procession, Browne captures in detail the pageantry, anxiety, and spirit of the nation to arrive at a more nuanced and richly textured perspective on what it took to launch the modern republican state. Compellingly written and artfully argued, The First Inauguration tells the story of the early republic—and of a president who, by his words and comportment, provides a model of leadership and democratic governance for today.

This book was released on 2018-02-09 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Souvenir of the Centennial Celebration of Washington's Inauguration: Held in New York City, April 29th and 30th, 1889 From the balcony of the hall that stood where the statue now is, the Declaration of Independence was first read to the citizens of New York; the Continental Congress sat here in its closing days, and here the first Federal Congress assembled. America offered no place more becoming and more honorably identified than this with the history of American liberty. The scene around is marvellously changed by the flight of years and modern progress, from the colonial, the provincial, the revolutionary city. The street is transformed from the resort of fashion, the seat of government, the modest and quiet residence of merchants, statesmen and diplomatists, which was the Wall street in the days of our forefathers. Then it was the social and political heart of a small and struggling community; now it is the financial nerve centre of America. The bustling, roaring street is but a picture painted over. Under the kaleidoscopic characters of the maelstrom of speculative life and of eager trade constantly traced upon the pavements of the modern metropolis, lies the undimmed and indelible patriotic record of old New York.
