His Excellency then dwells at cortsi derable length on the subject of Educa tion, and recommends the establishment in the College of a Professorship of Civil and Military Engineeriagi and .also a Professorship of Modern Languages.

Reproa ches of the Whigs will not recall the op portunity, nor lamentations change that which. is past and over.
