Had another functionary comman ding these advantages in a 4 more transcendant de gree, presented himselfi , with transport, I should have retired that you 'might the more be edified and I improved. But' your; session approximated to a speedy terminination,' this event was at hand, eo other': alternative presented itself, and under circumstances so imperious and necessitous I was induced to acquiesce. : " ' " -J( ; Th sabject which commands oar attention to day is one of ample t&d comprehensive purport; one which has from age to age employed the pens of the ablest statesmen,! most scientific phitosoph :f, erudite divines and poets, imcf is still ai maze wprotpimo-as to-be urifathomaoie, a neia so uth Wiedf as fiDtfto bVex pored. MucatFon latill ,jo proUem thjitjultipjjpity.of opinions entertained relative to education by citizens of dilTerent'; na tions the-vast diversity existing among 'those; unjt tidin the same civil fr ternity, enjoying lle "same Advantages, and the tragic individual ancTnational results of perverted or frroneous "education which are frequently witnessed, corroborate tbe accuracy cC this opinion in a manner, which I deem irrefrag able. What then, is education To define the term is a matter readily c-Sected,' but to delineate the idea involves a greater iamount of difliculty. The . term education, as all of you are aware, who ; are acquainted with the Latin Classics is derived from E and ducpt . compounded Ednco to lead 'rom. but what is it that is lead, when and where 'Ibis definition is . capacious "and embraces: man physically, intellectually and morally. . ' Jio the perspicacious ana Tenecuve : mma the analogy existing between man's intellectual and moral dependency upon - external circumstances and objects, nnd that of his physical is palpably obvious and impressively striking. Man " in his infantile state is composed of mere susceptibilities, aichif not surrounded by requisite external cir cumstances are doomed prematurely to languish wl expire. The physical constitution of man. in infancy is perfect in its parts though not mature , "i us poiency, ana requires extraneous mauer up m Which to subsist, which if riot administered to tacit the functual action of the system, or if insal ; utary, it; never expands; into the ample powers manhood, or attains to that degree of beauteous tnetry, which inspires the. poet s , muse and ex ?c,tes the minstreTs IvreJ So with the intellectual conunucq ccene al rarnnge, is -.partially i:niu with infatuated 1 ' ' q:iM tVu vdl jcrdj-f, jirt us.Cemcntat? Bh- cation, is at nco parnlized. Cut it has been aktrtcd tluxf intellectual cultiva. tion independent ofmornl is ruinous nnd pernicious in its tendency,, and that it was dcmonslralle both by reason and experimental observation. Intellec tual culture imparts influence, "Knowledge is pow er," and power is dangerous, unrestrained wherev er found. Nor. is Deity himself an exception to this declaration, for his omnipotence is governed by his moral attributes. A gigantic mind cultiva ted to the highest degree, will command the defer- genaity subservient to its vitiated appetites and will nen the powers of man sufficiently expand r It ions sense of danger is stuffiripnitv imnrpem-iEE's j. i ...... . . f romd, the capacity for intellectual acquisition is continued enlarged and the domestic' relations are such ai not to aflord adequate educational faculties it then becomes- necessary to substitute in the parents stead n Preceptor of competent powers and moral sensibility, who can more exclusively devote him self tojhe educational province. The duty devolv ing on preceptorsis as far as practicable, to cher ish the tender sensibilities of parental regard, and to transfer - parental love to their own bosoms; their policy should be affectionate and lenient, yet stern ana .decided. The student on the other hand, should not(as is too frequently the case, con template his preceptor ps a tyranical oppressor, but as a foster parent, and in the retrospection of life should render to him a decree of trralitude second to none, save that to God and inatural pa rents. The object of education, Young Gentlemen, is, or should be three JfaJdjfirst, to' promote the happiness cOha individual educated ; secondly, to advance the - felicity of society, "and thirdly, the glory of Uod. , This fact should be indellibly ; in culcated upon your mtnds,r nnd should exert a wield ing,preponderating and determining influence over you in your educational pursuits, v f , -The interrogatory should be propounded by eve ry student to himself, whether or not this . three fold end, vital andin'dispensably important, is sub served by the course adopted j ..reason should 'act the intellectual barrister, reveal all nppurtinent cir cumstances to the eye "of judgment which should ponder them impassionately and maturelyyand if the decision should be negative,' -relinquish; with out hesitancy your attachment, abandon the enter prise, and adopt a course which shall be more con genial with the object vbhh ed re? tion has in con templation. , The-happiness of individuals socie ty and the glory of God are by sno means incom patible ; but the contrary impression is a prolific source of contention and infelicity; from hence o- riginatcs that mcubid-sdfishmsas which rcn-iprs the mind self corosive, which taps the foundation of social confidence, which Jike the .mighty volcano explodes, disgorging its liquid candentlava, whicH in the form ot war desolates whole countries, de molishes magnificiepti cilics, ? and exterminates whole nations. It may be observed, no soch dan ger is to be apprehended from you ; this may not be correct; the same might have been surmised of Napoleon Bonaparte while an obscure Corsican jv is. tome that education i coreummntcd et the espir- and d2y, urin7 the wee ai a . - - . mw its iruancy and u learning to wall; nW ; 1W pre posterous it would be fnr a child themomeu it acquires ihe ability to u alk, voluntarily to desist equally absurd is it td suppote that educational training is consummated when the Acadtmic term is over. !
