will increase beyond all experience;
resources of all kinds will multiply infinitely; arts will embellish the
land with immortal beauty; the name of Republic will be exalted, until
every neighbor, yielding to irresistible attraction, will seek a new
life in becoming a part of the great whole; and the national example
will be more puissant than army or navy for the conquest of the world.
