What, then, are American principles; what is their character, and what their value? In general terms, then, we may say, that genuine American principles are identical with those of Protestant Christianity; and when these principles are embodied in action, they utterly refuse to assume any form except that of a Protestant Christian state. -- pg. 8-9.

Oration, Delivered on the Fifth of July, 1847

Book Description
Excerpt from Oration, Delivered on the Fifth of July, 1847: Before the Native Americans of Cincinnati Our clergymen are far from desiring to handle the weapons of partizan warfare; it would justly tarnish their fame, and ultimately ruin their influence. But that public sentiment which would exclude from the pulpit, or forbid a minister otherwise to discuss, the moral and religious bearings of our political action, is working incalculable injury to all con cerned. It serves to banish the word of God as a rule of conduct in politics; and public sentiment is corrupted by imperfect standards of morality. It dissociates the pulpit from the actual life of society; prevents it from vigorously seizing upon and moulding the forms of this present; serves to ren der its teachings barren and dull; tends to contract the intel lect of the preacher; to dwarf him to a pigmy, or shape him into a bigot with one idea; to cause the minister and his peo ple to dwell in separate worlds; - so that his discourses, touching none of the events which most excite and control the public mind, fall upon the ear as if composed in an un known tongue. Let a minister confine himself in his preaching to the truths of the gospel, but with these truths let him fearlessly sweep the whole field of human action.

Parading Patriotism
Author: Adam J. Criblez
Publisher: Cornell University Press
ISBN: 1609090888
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 199
Book Description
Parading Patriotism covers a critical fifty-year period in the nineteenth-century when the American nation was starting to expand and cities across the Midwest were experiencing rapid urbanization and industrialization. Historian Adam Criblez offers a unique and fascinating study of five midwestern cities—Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus, and Indianapolis—and how celebrations of the Fourth of July in each of them formed a microcosm for the country as a whole in defining and establishing patriotic nationalism and new conceptions of what it was like to be an American. Criblez exposes a rich tapestry of mid-century midwestern social and political life by focusing on the nationalistic rites of Independence Day. He shows how the celebratory façade often masked deep-seated tensions involving such things as race, ethnicity, social class, political party, religion, and even gender. Urban celebrations in these cities often turned violent, with incidents marked by ethnic conflict, racial turmoil, and excessive drunkenness. The celebration of Independence Day became an important political, cultural, and religious ritual on social calendars throughout this time period, and Criblez illustrates how the Midwest adapted cultural developments from outside the region—brought by European immigrants and westward migrants from eastern states like New York, Virginia, and Massachusetts. The concepts of American homegrown nationalism were forged in the five highlighted midwestern cities, as the new country came to terms with its own independence and how historical memory and elements of zealous and belligerent patriotism came together to construct a new and unique national identity. This ground-breaking book draws on both unpublished sources (including diaries, manuscript collections, and journals) and copious but under-utilized print resources from the region (newspapers, periodicals, travelogues, and pamphlets) to uncover the roots of how the Fourth of July holiday is celebrated today. Criblez's insightful book shows how political independence and republican government was promoted through rituals and ceremonies that were forged in the wake of this historical moment.
