They bave neither full nor hall grown ideas of man's sowers, and the miracles in ag. riculture, rhennstry and uiechames he has to perform. Yonid they judge of the future by the past, or determine what is to be, by whit is! Do tbey tlHbk the tarlh is to remain as co the greater part ario moors, dark forests and morass ! A larger much larger pro. portion ol their ova specie?, too, a destitute of mental and moral cultivation ! Why, man is only entering or his task by a lew pre liminary and scattered experiments prepar ing himself to set about it. An infinity of work is before htm. As ao agriculturist, be ha lo lay.and keep enlarg ing the basis of the Foetal column. All but an iutignificant portion of his splendid patri mony is yet wild lands; this he has to reclaim and convert into grass and grain-growing fields. Toe riehest sections the tropica so exuberant in fertility, are to be subjugated; sard I touched by the plow, though deemed lae birth-place and special home-stead of the apecies. Free and facile communications vita and through all have to be established. Add to this the purification of the almos. pure frw malaria ; for, by human provi dence, salubrity is to succeed baneful tnias tnaof mushes the hot beds of fevers and agues are to be dried up, and human life aud life's happiness prolonged. .

By wae exercise of this preroga ive, results bave been brought about as sin gular aa any in egetable and artificial or. gaiusms. Dimensions, forms, colors, pro portions, habits, tastes, and the very faculties of (he. lower tribes have been changed so m web so, as to make ( doubtful whether spe citw and sub species aaay not be due after all to this strange plasticity of animated matter. Tae earth is a laboratory, n which a a eheoiat man hat barely bgun to operate. A few loose samples f what it is composed of have bten partially analyzed, hut the bulk is ant yet broken into. Then the infinity f processes ceaselessly and silently gome on in organized and inert matter has to he grap pled with. As a factory, ioo, furmsbed with implements andmaterials in superabundance, little has been done in it nothing worth na ming in view of what has to he done. The rich stock has been neelw', not half of it has been yet even sen ; while forces for fabrics ting it bave from the beginning of time been, m ninninar tn araalc others Ivillir dormant far want of beinir called no to labor. When every force, latent and manifest, is brought into service and made the most of ; hei man hss spread his influence over every foot of the earth's surface, and brought the tores beneath it within his reach ; when modine matter, in whatever form appearing, is made to contribute to his ends ; when the planet is wholly changed from its naiura wildness a a harbor for untamed brutes and noxious reptiles into a fit theater for culu fated intelligeeces, it will be time enough V speak of human advancement as culmina ting, and the arts as having reached the lim its of perfection. Till these things come to pass, instead of looking for no more discoveries, we shonld ke prepared fora constant succession of them. Prepared or not, they are sure to come, for the hosts of keen intellects interrogating Mature in our own country, and the legions aa puay mothers, are not entreating her for notb "S nor for trifles. Qfi!'i7at on may be likened to a statne to carting of which is the business of the peeies. It includes all duties and furntsh- appropriate employment for the varied capacities of all men, for all time. Each sue eie are withdraws one band of laborers ! brings forward another whose faithful ,ei awkwardness, or negligence advance! f re rozrades the work. Under barbarism j as a shapeless block ; with the dawn of knowledge its features began to appear, aod nations occupied themselves in ehise llnC ny superfluous material and bringing w a into biffher relief.

Newly acquired truths in physics are keys, each of which unlocks a world of wonders. Everv new art gives birth to a iliouanl. The range of discovery is undoubtedly il limitable a truth that has only dawned re cenily with full conviction upon even ravatis. A century ago, few minds Were prepared lo receive it aod fcwer lo act on it Pregnant with hope, with present and prospective ac quisitions, it is among the diTinrst of mod. eru convictions. Navigators hate added some inland and otheis continents, and the woo1cimlers son of Genoa gave a hemis phere tu geography. -This done, comparative ly little was left of the earth's surface to ex plore; but it is not o with science, nor i he pplical ions of science.

The Universe is before nvemors, and all its elements and energies nviie their attention. There is, therefore. o d-wiirt r in expecting or attempting too much, provided they aspire not bevond where Nature herself has gone, and even then il usions vanish with experiment. There is a good moral lo be drawn by daring inventors from this fathomless arid bouod less ocean of novelties it is this : avoid crowds of small craft in quest of improve mcnls and launch out your barks in search of original things. True genius is rather ambitious to bring up pearls of its own, than solicitous lo polish those of other men Since llirre is such abundance of room lor all, it should be the determination of every one to occupy some ground of his own to use another figure, to seek out "placers un touched, in preference to siftiug in old dig giugs. Dignity of Mechanical turuits. It is a singular agary that men to whose genius and ndustry the world is indebted lor what is most valuable in it should have always been held in low esteem. A habit of modern, it was a passion in former times, to look askant at those who use the hammer or spade, un der the fond delusion thai the less wise men have to do with grots matter, the nearer they resemble the Ureal Spirit; whereas God is the greatest of workers 'ihe chief of artificer. So far from locking up His wis- lom in abstractions, He is inressamly em bodying it in tangible things; and in them it is that His intelligence, ingenuity, and resources are made manifest. What is this urnrld but one of his workshops, and the universe but a collection of His inventions ? In Him th squeamishness of half formed philosophers and of highbred fashionables respecting mamml and mechanical pursuits finds no sympathy, but terrible rebuke. His works proclaim His prelerenee lor in material ami u"eiui io me mcicij imagm , i i . i . i live, and in (ruth it is in such lhat the truly beautiful or sublime is lo be found. A slea mer is a mightier epic than the Iliad; and Whiuemore. Jacquard, and ttlancnard might lansh even Virgil, Milton, and Tasso to scorn. Inventors. then. are rev:aiers and expoun- ders of the practical doctrines of civilization and more than any other class have they shown us how to lessen lile s f vil and rnul. tinlv its rood. The connection of morals with expanding science and ari, and tbe ne eessily of their union to the elevation of the species, are beginning to elicit attention. It is now perceived that deviation Irom prin- ciples of science either in agriculture, arts manufactures, in processes or pursuits oi any kind ara errors, in sn extended sense, are tint are violations of divine laws. And, though sins of iimorsnce, they carry, and will forever cairy their punishment with them, viz: in imperfect results and Ihe in- diction of unnecessary inconvenience, ex penses, and toil in spending strength lor nought. Not till mechanical aa well as ethical ici- full explored and universally ap plied can man attain his destiny, and evil be swept from the earth. It has been regretted slso as an evil of magnitude that, while the arts administer to the neeeseilie of the species, a general the neceseiiw-. oi ae . , , knowledge oi tnem was not "J""""-" as a feature of popular education ; that while the work of historians, poet,&C. have been adopied as Jnodels upon which lo form the " r , r -,h ihe taste and excite the ambition of youth, he great doctrinal )f life, as exemplified in the manist refinement, have been neglecd.
