j Notwithstanding the extreme inclemen
cy of j theweat her, the 2nd Presbyterian
church was crowded on Sunday, with the
most solemn audience we have ever seen,
to attend ihe obsequies of the late Jauin
j Hampden I 1'leasants. The sermon was
! preached by the Rev. Dr. Stiles, from the
i text, 4 thou shalt Jove thy neighbor as thy-
. v v vrusi i uai i ne lessons ne laugnt,
as to the dreadful private and public con
sequence pf disregarding this great com
mandment, jmay be productive of lasting
good in this comrrunity.

j Wherever we find knowledge generally dififus
I ed, there we find the people the most intelli
gent, society most refined, and the standard of
religion the most elevated ; t this, most cities,
! states and countries, owe their superiority and
! general prosperity ; and thejre is no country
perhaps where the general diffusion of jtnowl.
edge ismoretobe desiied.ihan in ourown. And
how could this be effected better, or; with less
' expense, than by establishing a public library ?
In nearly every village there
j men of fine sense, who are th
i edge, who desire to become u
society, hut whose funds are too limiled,tp ob
tain the means ; to such, an institution! of-this
kind would be invaluable, it vould afford them
: the oppirtunity of improving ajs it is their duty
; to do, the talents which their Creator has given
them, it might be the means ojf enabling many
1 young men who otherwise wou)d have lived and
died in obscurity, to gain for themselves' a high
1 distinction in some of the pathp of life, of shed-
