The tiiW hos como for ns to" think.
That great .God, which hoe given to man
all his blessings, ha? commanded him to
til?th?'gr?ti'rl 1. Heneo ho has made tho
tilling Of the earth the foundation of all
civilization. ; Look abroad upon man
from tho creation and everywhere he is a
savage-^a roaming barbarian, till he sits
down to make his bread by the sweat of
his face. High and low are dependent
on it for bread-high and low are alike
affected by its prosperity or decline. It
is, therefore, the most important of all
the labora of man. And, therefore, tho
most important interest for thu nursing
protection of government.
To till tho ground, tho arts are necessa?
ry. Civilization progresses as the arts
aire cultivated. Linguistic scholars toll
us that tho root from which tho word
"art" is derived, means to plough.
Governments are instituted to protect
the life, liberty and property of their peo?
ple, and to advance civilization and the
general welfare by all means ia their
power. Government can in no way more
effectually do this, than by opening the
avenues to scientific education. The laws
of soience spring from the laws of na?
ture, and, when understood, prepares
man for usefulness. To illustrate : A
potter selects his clay with care, kneads
it well, thoroughly prepares his house,
both for protection and use, fixes his
round-table, makes his clay into balls
and places them iu proper vats to keep
them moist and ready at any time for
use. When thus prepared, tho potter
can take any one of his balls and mould
it as readily into a pitcher as a jug ; a
cup as a saucer ; or into any other pat?
tern the clay is qualified for aud his art
eau execute. In this house, thus pre?
pared, he is independent of tho outer
world, except for his bread. So would
a full education make men. To du this
successfully, education should bo con?
sidered in a four-fold relation: %. That
which directs our attention to God and
immortality; 2. That which teaches us
our duties to our fellow-men; 3. That
which enlarges and gives control of our
mental faculties; and 4, That which pre?
pares us for a particular avocation.
The first class, that which directs our
attention to God and immortality, should
begin in the nursery, and be continued,
and be a part of all future instruction to
manhood.
2. That which teaches~our duties to
our fellow men, should also be early and
forcibly impressed, from youth to man?
hood. With reverence and filial fear to?
wards God, the moral faculties are, com?
paratively, easy of development. Then
man is fortified with pnre and noble
principles that, in the hour of fierce
temptation and trial, he will be covered
in an armor for protection. Inspire him
with the love of the beautiful-set be?
fore his view a pattern of refined man?
ners; let him see what is excellent in
painting, music and poetry; call his
attention to birds and insects, then to
his own organism, to see with what admi?
rable aptitude the internal constitutions
of nature's works are to their external
circumstances. Let him see what is
sublime in nature; present him with
examples of moral grandeur, and kindle
within him ^aspirations of glory, honor
and immortality-then yon will havu a
man bent to do justice and love mercy.
3. That which gives control and
strengthens the mental faculties, should
have a large scope. Embracing first and
prominent, mathematics, chemistry, as?
tronomy and philosophy, to cultivate thc
faculty of reason; and the classics, to cul
ti vate the faculty of language.
4. Under this bead, all the sciences art
embraced, in addition to the first three
classas. But moat prominent snoh as ar?
allied to, and necessary for, success in
the avocation he may choose for himself
With a full understanding of all these
heads, the man is then independent oj
the outer world, except for his bread, lei
him take to whatever pursuit he may
Theo he can mould his lump of clay inte
any shape.
A knowledge of the first of thest
classes prepares a man to be a lawyer
doctor or divine. But it requires tbs
fourth to make a successful general
statesman, farmer or mechanic. A ful
education has many and great advan
tages, and, most important of all, it can
not be taken away from him. It make:
him active, enterprising, circumspect
far-sighted, and prepared for any omer
gency. Abovo these it secures to him th<
regard of the wise and good, and ht
learns to respect himself. To him mei
look for counsel. Of him his countr
claims deliverance in times of dange:
and distress. He is the pilot to steer tlx
ship of State into a safo harbor.
Still, learning the sciences without th<
proper moral training, will neither makt
a safo leader nor a happy and prosperoui
people. To do both, the young mus
be inspired with reverence for their pa
rents and old age; with propor deferenci
for the opinion of the wise and good o
all ages, and with that graceful diffidenc
in their own sagacity and power, whiol
leads them to have due respect for th
records of wisdom of the past; tha
honest candor and earnestness in con
templating all things whioh strives t
hunt truth-and a total absence of ar
rogant forwardness and self-suffioienoy
which considers everythiog silly or cse
Ies3 that does not agree with their own
views, or does not;conform''to Custom.
With a full education, the mau bf energy
cnn turu himself to nny hf tho p?rstiits
of life with con Od once of success.
But what in this country und ago will
be cousidered strange,, though yet strict?
ly true, it requires a more extensive, sci?
entific kuowledge to make a successful
farmer or planter than forjany other pur?
suit of mau. YJcf| fiome| tillers of the
ground of''more than ordinary capacity,
und of good judgment, closely watchiug
his own and tho experience of others,
havo gono so far ahead of tho generality
of tillers, as to bo by them considered
successful. But to draw from the earth,
air and water tboir completo aud united
power of production, demands in the
operator tho capacity of a general, to dis?
ciplino and command his laborers; of a
merchant, to keep accounts of all things
connected with his farm, his experi?
ments, sales and purchases; of the politi?
cal economist, to know how to prepare,
when and where to send his procruots to
the most advantageous markets, and
what products to raise to suit his soil
and climate, by which to secure the
greatest profit; of the chemist, to ana?
lyze the soil, the plants, and the manure
he uses; tho historian of both ancient
and modern nations, and especially the
political condition of the nations around
him; and of the mathematician most of
all, for strengthening the mind so as to
grasp and muster all other knowledge.
Ho should understand all about mecha?
nism and its laws, to see that all his tools
and implements are not only in order,
but properly adupted to tho purpose in?
tended, aud how best to adapt the draft
to thc animal. He should understand
hygiene, to manage tho disenses of man
and beast. Ho should be able to distin?
guish bet ween the birds aud insects that
arc beneficial and those tbnt ure injuri?
ous to his crops, and how to protect the
one and destroy the other. He ought to
know all about vegetable physiology; tho
effects of light, heat, water, electricity
and the air upon vegetation. There are
also the sciences of botauy, mineralogy
and hydraulics, if not more, essential to
insure the maximum of success. When
thus prepared, it may suit his fancy to
study divinity, law or medicine, for
either of which he is doubly armed.
And he is eminently prepared to bo a
statesman to guide the helm of State, or
a general to lead armies, or a farmer to
draw fium the earth, air and water the
maximum of tho blessings our kiud Fa
ther has there li.?ed for the tue of mun.
But let it not bo supposed that educa?
tion, however extensive in scionce, with?
out that traiuiug which inculcates rever?
ence for God and good-will towards
their fellows, will muka men fit to give
counsels. Ou the contrary, uninfluenced
by the couuscls of moral rectitude, tho
higher thc instruction, the better able is
he to do iujury to his fellows. For ho is
thou qualified to make a scientific coun?
terfeiter or gambler, a scientific pick?
lock or pick-pocket, and may raise him?
self to thc unenviable reputation of a
vulture fattening on the property and
character of his species.
