"We must cease altogether to say that England is an island off the north-
western coast of Europe. * We must cease to think that Emigrants, when
they go to the Colonies, leave England, or are lost to England.

too is a United States'-a great, homogeneous people, dispersed over boundless
space."-" Expansion of England:" Prof. J. R. Seeley.
