Opis

Excerpt from A Short History of the City of Philadelphia: From Its Foundation to the Present Time It is since the ground on which it stands was an nu broken wilderness, upon which eye of white man had never rested. This is particularly the case with those immense capitals of the West whose birth and growth are comprised within the past half-century but the thought is sufficiently striking with regard to what we term our old settlements. Two centuries and a half - a mere drop in the sum of the ancient civilizations - represents all, and more than all, of what we in America count as antiquity. Take Phila delphia, for instance, - second in population and importance among the cities of the United States, and rivalling in area every capital of Europe, unless it be the city of London its foundation goes back to the earliest days of our colonies yet Rome was.
