is in a flourishing condition. Its numbers j
were diminished last March, by an a?t of j
necessary discipline on tlio part of the!
Faultily, which hits exercised a salutary iti- j
lluvu>:e. The greater portion of the young .
gentlemen who wcro atfecled by its opera- I
" <: again hi uicir seats, pursuing the I
studios of their class. I recommend that I
tin: 1 i ustees be authorized to place a scholar- i
ship at llio service of the Charleston College,
of Erskiue College in Abbeville, the
l'uynan Collego in Greenville, the WolVord
College, and St, John's Collego in Spartanburg,
and M*.nut Ziou College in Fairfield.
I hope that these flourishing institutions of
learning will he invited, and be induced to |
keep one student of their-own selection always
at the South Carolina College, free of
any charge for tuition, to be subject, however,
to the usual examination by the i
Faculty and to all the College laws. Our
system of collegiate education has grown
np as suggested bv the wants of society,
and is woithy of the harmonious support
uf all its component parts. In the changing
circle of years, new <pu*Stions continu- L
illy arise and new shades of opinion changc j*
.he face of parties. l>ut there are fc>pics"j'
which never hm their interest, because they )
iro connected with the foundation of s'ocie- i
:v. Such is the ennsu i?f
Tin; time will never come - wlu-n il can j
jo considered a matter of indifVercnee how
mlilic education is conducted. Xor is it
lecessarv to enlarge here on its" importance,
or it must he said, to the hoiior^of tlie county,
dial opposition to education finds no
npport among our people?even they who
lave missed tlie opportunities of acquiring
t themselves are laudably bent, not only on
t.'eunng its benefits to tlieir? children, but
ti promoting tlie gencraJ diffusion ol^Tf.
la-re is nothing which contributes so mudi
u the elevation ofi.be American character;
otlimg which proves to strangers the snperiiiity
claimed for our progressive and growug
country, as the unanimiiy with which
lie cause of education is everywhere emr.iccl
by all descriptions of our people,
lie it lore, any incentive to the support of ^
ducation i-av well be spared, liut it is ;
mportant. that its true ends should bo often ,
resented to the public eye ; for, as free
;t>vei nni'.-nt is the great glory ot the human
;n:e, tlie education of tlie people is the ap- ,
ironriate means of raising mankind to tlie
irnpor rank of freemen?but to educate
lie people implies a system that coinprelends
tlie whole society. Tliete was. in t ie I I
. nicest times, a learned few?nor was it i
heir fault thai they made arrangements on
he basis ?.f exclusion--for to force liberal
ystvtns of legislation upon the ignorant is a i 1
ntal misapplication of power, leading to '
milling but confusion and anarchy, ll was
( served for our times to give to the world 1
he example of a people .so docile as lo ad- (
nit of general education, and so capable of
irogressas to unite in the inarch of improveiK'iit.
l'.ut education cannot be general '
inless it be as various a-s the wants of socie- i
v, and calculated to develops all the facul- i
ies of the human mind. Same minds are
dapted to the pursuit of science or speculate
truth?others are fitted for activity in (
lie walks of business ; some have leisure touvestigate
the causes of things?others
avo opportunities of applying the dis
overics of science to the practical purposes
f life. It has been too much the practice
) limit tho demands of education lo what ,
re called the learned professions. The (
rent advances that have been made by ?
seful and ingenious industry, require a very {
tuple knowledge on the part of persons 1
ho engage in the pursuits of agriculture,
i ts or commerce.
