An u educated clave, and an uneducated freeman," Mr. Phillips justly remarks, "are moral contradic tion."

They were sensible , that no more effectual method could be devised (0 keefi them in tcrvitude, than to ketfi them in ig norance" What now makes fifty millions of people tremble at the nod of the autocrat of Rus sia ? What, but ignorance ! Of these fifty mill ions, probably 48,000,000 of them are buried in profound ignorance ! Can it be wondered, then, that they are enslaved, degraded, brutish ? What makes the more enlightened nations of Europe submit to the usurpations, dictations, and tyranny of some three or four individuzh, united in what is impiously termed a Holy League? Is it not because the human mind is there depressed and darkened by the mists of ignorance ? And what but education, knowledge, will restore it to Us natural elasticity, and enable it to burst the bonds which have bound in servitude both itself and the body which it inhabits Let but knowledge dif fuse its light over any land, and tyranny will flee before its radiance, like the mists cf the morning before the luminary of heaven. On the other hand, let ignorance spread her sable pall over a nation, and all that dignifies and ennobles huma nity is shrouded bi. .the darkness, and gloom of the grave t the " high born soul," formed to soar aloft, and ride on the vollicd lightning through the heavens," grovels in the dirt, and degrades itself below the instinct of brutes ! If education be so important, then, so vitally necessary to the existence of liberty, let those whose duty it is, look to it : Let the Legislators of our country, amid all their plans for internal improvements, devise some plan to render the blessings of education as diffuse as our popula tion, and attainable by eyery man, woman, and child. Let them recollect, that " among the ob jects which appertain, (to use the language 01 Mr. Walsh,) properly, if not technically, to the topic of internal improvements, lettered educa tion deserves to be designated as the most im portant and fruitful."
