of a letter from the venerable Job Adams, one of the
few surviving signers of the Declaration of Indepen
dence, and now, w e Ix-lieve, in his eighty-fifth year. It
was written at Phihtderphia, to a friend, on tlie 5th of
July, 1776; m. Ycaterdajr the greatest question was de
tided which was ever debated in America j and greater,
perhaps, never was or will be decided among men. A

The day is passedthe 4th of July, 1776, will be a
nenwrabU epoetin in the history of America. I am apt to
believe it will be celebrated by succeeding generations, at
the. great Jtmivertary tettival. if ought to be commem
orated as the Bir or ueliverakce, by solemn acts of de-
Jvotion to Almighty (kxl. It ought to be solemnized with

of the toil, and blood, and treasure that it will cost to
maintain this declaration and support, and. defend these
states j yet, through all the gloom, I can see the ravs of
i light and glory 1 can see that the end is worth more
than all the means f and that posterity will triumph, a,
though you and I may rue, which 1 hope we aliall not.'

It is natural for us, on each return of this anniversary,
ro count over our privileges, ami to recapitulate the cau
sos which led to our separation from England. ' One
among the many causes which brought about that glori
ous cvenVwas, ur laving H taxes imposed on us with
out our consent." In sun eying our national privileges,
wc find that the citizens of no State possess any wluch
are not common to all the States r the smallest State dos-
sesses the same rights as the largest) has ita due weight
in jnc p auonai legislature, and an equal voice in the

tions, on various subject, that wen1 highly gi-atilying to
the conuiuttee, ami creditable to theinst ivca. The Tailor
in high Life," and the humorous farce of u My Aunt,"
were' performed in a style that is not often suruaed by
Ktudnti.
The committee feel highly gratified ith the progresf
of Uie student! in both departim U ot tins St minai'y,
which redounds to the credit ot tli.T.ifc-lvea, and toiiio
hoiMr of their Preceptors. Indeed, when we reflect that
a majority of the stmlenU have never before entered a
regular Academy, wc are agreeably surprised ut thiir
rapid progress-ami acquirements in sj kliort a period.
We are happy in attributing to Mrs. Edmoihl that inert!
of praise which is so justly due her, for the able and as
siduous discharge, of th arduous and important trust
coiiiihittcd to her care. Tlie improeiTicM;t made by the
iitudents under her dircrtien is a hirli evidence of her
superior talents astiitrcB&'" Mr. Edmonds has realized
the expectations we had formed of him, from his high
character as a teacher; and we lni.it that by his zeal and
induhtry our Academy ill rank equal, if i:ot iuperior, to
any in the state.
By order of the committee.
