This  is  a  digital  copy  of  a  book  that  was  preserved  for  generations  on  library  shelves  before  it  was  carefully  scanned  by  Google  as  part  of  a  project 
to  make  the  world's  books  discoverable  online. 

It  has  survived  long  enough  for  the  copyright  to  expire  and  the  book  to  enter  the  public  domain.  A  public  domain  book  is  one  that  was  never  subject 
to  copyright  or  whose  legal  copyright  term  has  expired.  Whether  a  book  is  in  the  public  domain  may  vary  country  to  country.  Public  domain  books 
are  our  gateways  to  the  past,  representing  a  wealth  of  history,  culture  and  knowledge  that's  often  difficult  to  discover. 

Marks,  notations  and  other  marginalia  present  in  the  original  volume  will  appear  in  this  file  -  a  reminder  of  this  book's  long  journey  from  the 
publisher  to  a  library  and  finally  to  you. 

Usage  guidelines 

Google  is  proud  to  partner  with  libraries  to  digitize  public  domain  materials  and  make  them  widely  accessible.  Public  domain  books  belong  to  the 
public  and  we  are  merely  their  custodians.  Nevertheless,  this  work  is  expensive,  so  in  order  to  keep  providing  this  resource,  we  have  taken  steps  to 
prevent  abuse  by  commercial  parties,  including  placing  technical  restrictions  on  automated  querying. 

We  also  ask  that  you: 

+  Make  non-commercial  use  of  the  files  We  designed  Google  Book  Search  for  use  by  individuals,  and  we  request  that  you  use  these  files  for 
personal,  non-commercial  purposes. 

+  Refrain  from  automated  querying  Do  not  send  automated  queries  of  any  sort  to  Google's  system:  If  you  are  conducting  research  on  machine 
translation,  optical  character  recognition  or  other  areas  where  access  to  a  large  amount  of  text  is  helpful,  please  contact  us.  We  encourage  the 
use  of  public  domain  materials  for  these  purposes  and  may  be  able  to  help. 

+  Maintain  attribution  The  Google  "watermark"  you  see  on  each  file  is  essential  for  informing  people  about  this  project  and  helping  them  find 
additional  materials  through  Google  Book  Search.  Please  do  not  remove  it. 

+  Keep  it  legal  Whatever  your  use,  remember  that  you  are  responsible  for  ensuring  that  what  you  are  doing  is  legal.  Do  not  assume  that  just 
because  we  believe  a  book  is  in  the  public  domain  for  users  in  the  United  States,  that  the  work  is  also  in  the  public  domain  for  users  in  other 
countries.  Whether  a  book  is  still  in  copyright  varies  from  country  to  country,  and  we  can't  offer  guidance  on  whether  any  specific  use  of 
any  specific  book  is  allowed.  Please  do  not  assume  that  a  book's  appearance  in  Google  Book  Search  means  it  can  be  used  in  any  manner 
anywhere  in  the  world.  Copyright  infringement  liability  can  be  quite  severe. 

About  Google  Book  Search 

Google's  mission  is  to  organize  the  world's  information  and  to  make  it  universally  accessible  and  useful.  Google  Book  Search  helps  readers 
discover  the  world's  books  while  helping  authors  and  publishers  reach  new  audiences.  You  can  search  through  the  full  text  of  this  book  on  the  web

PREFACE. 


Ehcouraoed  by  the  approbation,  which  our  labors  have  hitherto 
receirefi,  we  offer  to  the  public  the  5th  volume  of  the  American  Al- 
manac. For  explanations  of  the  astronomical  department,  we  would 
refer  the  reader  to  Mr.  Paine's  Preliminary  Observations.  There 
will  also  be  found  in  the  course  of  the  volume,  such  explanatione 
and  remarks  relating  to  other  portions,  as  make  it  unnecessary  here 
to  say  much  respecting  them. 

Complete  lists  of  the  Members  of  the  American  Congresses,  from 
the  year  17G5  to  the  present  time,  are  given  in  this  volume.  A  list 
of  the  Members  of  Congress  from  1774  to  1778,  has  never  before,  so 
far  as  we  know,  been  published.  This  list  has  been  carefully  formed 
from  the  **  Journals  of  Congress  " ;  but  these  Journals  do  not  furnish 
such  information  as  to  insure  entire  accuracy  with  respect  to  dates. 
Mr.  Force's  "  National  Calendar  "  for  1829  contains  a  list  of  the 
Members  of  Congress  under  the  Constitution,  from  1789  to  1827, 
on  a  different  plan  from  that  of  the  list  here  inserted  ;  and  the  cor- 
respondent who  prepared  the  latter,  was  not  awnre  of  the  existence 
of  the  former,  till  he  had  completed  his  undertaking. 

It  will  be  seen  tliat  a  Miscellaneous  Department,  and  also  a  de- 
partment for  brief  Obituary  Notices,  have  now  been  introduced ; 
and  wo  hope  that  they  will  be  regarded  as  an  improvement  of  the 
plan  of  the  work. 

The  space  allotted  to  the  notices  of  Individual  States,  in  this  vol- 
ume, is  chiefly  occupied  by  an  account  of  education  and  literary 
inatitntioiw  id  the  several  states;  and  the  quantity  of  materials 
on  these  topics  demanding  insertion,  has  been  so  considerable 
aa  to  render  It  necenary  to  exclude  other  useful  tnaltfix  \  «i\V!bnraL^ 
tbe  walinoe  haa  been  eomewiuX  enlarged.  ^     ^   GooQie

PREFACE. 


We  would  renew  the  expression  of  our  grateful  acknowledg- 
ments to  our  friends  in  the  different  parts  of  the  country,  who 
have  been  so  good  as  to  forward  information  for  the  improvement 
of  this  work ;  and  we  respectfully  solicit  a  continuance  of  their  fa- 
vors. 

In  the  next  volume  we  propose  to  give,  in  addition  to  other  mat- 
ters, a  view  of  the  financial  institutions  of  the  country,  viz.  banks, 
,  insurance  companies,  and  savings  banks ;  also  of  periodical  lite- 
rature, including  newspapers  and  other  periodical  publications,  on 
a  plan,  which  is  exemplified  in  this  volume  in  relation  to  Mas- 
sachusetts (see  page  169) ;  and  on  these  topics,  particularly,  infor- 
mation is  desired.

X  PRELIMIffART    OBSERVATIONS. 

and  even  injury  was  sustained  from  want  of  care  in  looking  at  the  Sun 
without  any  protection  for  the  eye,  or  tlirough  glass  not  sufficiently 
colored,  it  may  be  proper  to  remark,  that  should  the  sky,  during  the 
Qontinuance  of  this  Eclipse,  be  clear,  one  of  the  very  darkest  green  or 
red  glasses  of  a  sextant,  and  in  default  of  this,  a  piece  of  common 
window  glass,  free  from  veins,  and  rendered  quite  black  by  the  smoke  of 
a  lamp,  onttfy  can  be  used  with  safety.  If  the  lustre  of  the  Sun  should, 
be  diminished  by  intervening  clouds,  a  lighter  shade  will  be  sufficient. 

In  the  computation  of  the  phases  of  this  Eclipse  for  some  of  the  prin- 
cipal places  in  the  United  States  (see  pages  10  —  15),  the  semidiameters 
of  tne  Sun  and  Moon  were  reduced  5''  for  irradiation  and  inflexion ;  the 
quantity  indicated  by  all  the  observations  on  the  Eclipse  of  Feb.,  Ib3l. 

The  total  eclipse  of  the  Moon  of  June  21  si,  and  that  of  Dec.  I5th, 
will  be  more  interesting  to  the  public  generally,  than  to  the  astronomer. 

Occultations  of  the  planets  and  of  stars  of  not  less  than  the  fourth 
magnitude,  will  this  year  be  rare.  Jupiter  will  be  eclipsed  in  the 
morning  of  September  24th,  and  Venus,  in  the  southern  extremity  of 
the  United  States,  in  the  aflernoon  of  tlie  2d  of  December. 

The  moment  of  the  Immersion  or  Emersion  of  any  star,  however 
small,  behind,  or  from,  the  dark  side  of  the  Moon,  can  be  determined 
with  precision  ;  but  if  the  star  is  small,  great  difficulty  is  experienced  in 
satisfactorily  ascertaining  it,  when  the  phenomenon  takes  place  on  the 
side  that  is  enlightened.  Indeed,  it  has  been  found  by  Professor  Struve, 
even  with  the  assistance  of  the  celebrated  telescope  in  his  possession, 
by  Fraunhofer,  so  nearly  impossible,  that  he  recommends  measuring 
with  a  micrometer  the  star's  distance  from  the  limb  of  the  Moon,  some 
minutes  before  or  after  the  moment  of  contact,  and  when  it^  light  is, 
comparatively,  but  little  diminished  by  her  superior  lustre.  Those  con- 
junctions, however,  of  the  Moon  with  stars  of  less  than  the  fourth  magni- 
tude, which  mav  be  occultations  in  some  part  of  the  United  States,  are 
noted  in  the  Calendar  pages  by  an  asterisk,  instead  of  the  usual  syrabM 
(^conjunction. 

The  catalogue  of  the  eclipses  of  the  Satellites  of  Jupiter  (pages  17 
and  18)  contains  only  those  visible  in  some  part  of  the  United  States. 
The  eclipses  before  the  planet  comes  into  conjunction  with  the  Sun, 
on  the  9lh  of  May,  will  happen  on  the  east  side,  then,  until  the  opposi- 
tion, on  the  21.)lh  of  November,  on  the  west,  and  ailerwards  again  on 
the  east :  between  the  Oth  of  May  and  21Hh  of  November,  the  Immer- 
sions only  of  the  first  and  second  satellites  will  be  visible,  and  during 
the  remamder  of  the  year,  the  Emersions  only  j  but  both  the  Immersion 
and  Emersion  of  the  two  outer  satellites  can  sometimes  be  seen. 

The  fourth  satellite  will  not,  however,  be  eclipsed  this  year,  its  Lati« 
tude,  at  every  opposition,  being  greater  than  the  planet's  semidiameter. 

The  eclipses  take  place  fartliest  from  the  body  of  Jupiter  when  in 
quadrature,  and  nearest  when  in  opposition  or  conjunction ;  but  for  some 
weeks  before  and  afler  he  is  in  the  latter  position,  the  eclipses  cannot 
be  observed,  the  planet  and  satellites  being  rendered  invisible  by  the 
superior  light  of  the  Sun.  As  these  eclipses  appear  to  take  place  at  the 
same  moment  of  absolute  time  in  every  part  of  tne  Earth  where  they  are 
'visible,  to  determine  the  approximate  time,  at  which  anyone  in  the 
catalogue  will  happen  in  any  place  in  the  United  States,  it  is  necessary 
merely  to  subtract  the  estimated  Longitude  of  that  place  from  the  time 
of  Immersion  or  Emersion  at  Greenwich. 

In  the  table  of  Latitude  and   Longitude   of  some   of  the   principal 

places  in  the  United  States  (page  24,  &c.),  will  be  found  the   latitude

the  capitol  at  Washington,  the  Univeraity  of  Virginia,  Philadelphia,  or 
Boston,  the  distance  of  which  from  the  meridian  of  Greenwich  is  sup- 
posed to  be  correctly  known.  The  longitude  of  the  Capitol  is  Uie  mekn 
of  the  results,  deduced  from  the  observations  on  the  annular  eclipses  of 
1791,  1811,  and  1831,  and  has  recently  been  confirmed  by  the  edi- 
tor, by  compsrinff  it  by  chronometers  with  the  University  of  Virginia 
and  the  city  of  Philadelphia.  The  unfortunate  adoption,  in  the  con- 
struction of  several  maps  of  this  country,  of  the  longitude  of  the  Capi- 
tol (5h.  7'  42"),  reported  by  an  individual  acting  under  authority  or  a 
Resolve  of  Congress,  has  caused  an  error  of  i\^  minutes  of  a  degree 
therein  Since  uts  table  went  to  press,  the  position  of  several  places  in 
Massachusetts  and  New  York  has  been  determined  by  the  editor,  the 
poblication  of  which  must  be  deferred  until  another  year. 

In  the  arrangement  of  the  Calendar  pages  there  is  no  alteration  from 
that  in  the  Almanac  for  1833. 

In  the  computation  of  the  rising  and  setting  of  the  Sun,  two  correc- 
tions have  been  introduced  into  the  Almanac  for  this  year,  for  the  first 
time.  These  corrections  are,  1st,  for  the  effect  of  refraction  in  caasinff 
him  to  appear  above  the  sensible  horizon  sooner  in  the  morning  and 
later  in  the  aflernoon,  tlian  he  actually  is,  and  2dly,  for  tlie  interval 
between  the  rising  or  setting  of  his  centre  and  of  his  highest  point ;  the 
instant  of  the  appearance  or  disappeaiance  of  this  point,  and  not  (as 
hereto.ore)  of  his  centre,  being  considered  the  time  of  his  rising  or 
setting.  So  that  at  the  time  indicated  in  the  Calendar  pages,  as  tluit  of 
sunrise  or  sunset,  his  centre  is  9U°  50'  from  the  zenith  *,  me  semidiome- 
ter  being  about  Hi'  and  the  horixontal  refraction  34'. 

The  amount  of  tliese  corrections  varies  at  every  place,  with  the 
season  of  the  year,  and  is  different  in  different  latitudes.  At  Boston, 
when  greatest,  they  lengthen  tlie  interval  between  sunrise  and  sunset 
about  12  minutes ;   at  New  Orleans,  nearly  9. 

3'he  setting  of  the  Moon  b  given  from  new  moon  to  full,  and  the  ris- 
ing from  full  moon  to  new;  the  letters  M.  A.  m.  a.,  found  in  these 
columns  and  in  other  parts  of  the  Almanac,  are  used  to  denote  Morning 
and  .Afternoon. 

The  time  of  the  Phases  of  the  Moon  is  computed  for  the  meridian  of 
Washii]f]g^n,  but  may  be  readily  reduced  to  that  for  any  other  meridian, 
by  adding  or  substracting  the  cfifference  of  the  longitude,  according  as 
tne  same  is  east  or  west  of  that  city.  The  time  of  the  moon's  southing 
is  computed  for  the  same  meridian.  The  variation,  however,  even  in  a 
remote  part  of  the  United  States,  will  be  inconsiderable. 

The  time  of  High  Water  is  corrected  for  the  difference  of  the  Right 
Ascension  of  the  Sun  and  Moon,  and  the  distance  of  the  Moon  from  the 
Earth.  The  time  of  the  tide  immediately  preceding  the  southing  of  the 
moon,  only,  having  been  given,  it  should  be  corrected  by  the  addition 
of  half  the  difference  when  tlie  time  of  the  other  tide  is  required. 

The  Planets  are  placed  in  the  order  in  which  they  pass  the  meridian 
on  the  first  day  of  each  month,  and  their  declinations  are  computed 
for  the  moment  of  their  passage  over  the  meridian  of  Washington. 

The  £phemeris  of  the  Sun  (pages  52  to  57)  is  parti v  taken  from  the 
celebrated  Almanac  of  Professor  Encke  and  partly  from  the  English 
Nautical  Almanac;  now  for  the  first  time  truly  an  "  Astronomical  Ephe-

Xll  PRELIMINARY   OBSERVATIONS. 

The  Table  of  Refractions  (pages  58,  50)  is  that  computed  on  princi- 
ples explained  by  Dr.  Young,  and  is  recommended  by  its  great  sim- 
plicity ;  moreover,  it  is  said  to  agree  as  closely  as  any  other  with  the 
latest  observations  ;  nevertheless,  had  not  Professor  BesseFs  new  Table 
required  the  use  of  logarithms,  it  would  have  been  preferred. 

The  elements  of  the  eclipses  (page  GO)  were  computed  from  the  Berlin 
Jahrhuchf  and  reduced  to  the  meridian  of  Greenwich  by  consideringr 
the  Longitude  of  Berlin  53m.  35.5s.  The  solar  elements  were  corrected 
for  the  second  differences ;  those  of  the  Moon,  at  the  time  of  the  eclipses 
of  January  IHh.  June  7th  and  !i21st,  and  December  I5th,  for  the  second 
and  third  ;  but  in  those  of  the  eclipse  of  the  30th  of  November,  correc- 
^  tions  were  introduced  for  the  differences  of  the  fourth  order. 

The  Tables  used  by  the  computers  of  the  Jakrbuch,  are  Bessers,  for 
the  Sun,  and  Burckhardt's,  for  the  Moon. 

All  the  calculations  in  this  Almanac  have  been  adapted  to  mean 
solar  time,  or  that  time  which  should  be  indicated  by  a  well  regulated 
clock.  On  account  of  the  eccentricity  of  the  Earth's  orbit  and  the 
inclination  of  the  Ecliptic  to  the  Equator,  the  motion  of  the  Earth  in 
I  Right  Ascension  is  not  uniform,  and  consequently  the  solar*  days  are 
not  equal,  about  half  being  more,  and  about  as  many  less,  than  24 
hours,  and  requiring  a  clock  indicating  apparent  or  solar  time,  to  be 
frequently  adjusted.  To  avoid  this  inconvenience,  the  fiction  of  mean 
time  has  been  invented ;  which  has  already  come  into  very  general  use 
and  probably  will  soon  supersede  the  other.  It  derives  its  name  from 
the  circumstance,  that  the  length  of  a  mean  solar  day,  hour,  «&c  ,  is  the 
mtan  or  average  length  of  all  the  apparent  solar  days,  hours,  t&c,  in  a 
tropical  year. 

The  greatest  difference  between  Mean  and  Apparent  Time  occurs  on 
the  3d  of  November,  viz.  Kim.  IGJ^s.,  and  the  equation  then  being  sub- 
tractive  from  apparent  time,  the  instant  the  Sun's  centre  is  on  the 
meridian  or  bears  exactly  south,  a  clock  regulated  to  mean  time  should 
indicate  llh.  43m  43is.  On  the  Uth  of  Februarv  is  the  greatest 
additive  equation,  when  the  time  of  noon  by  the  clock  should  be  14m. 
34s.  afler  12. 

But  mean  time  can  be  easily  reduced  to  apparent,  by  applying  the 
equation  (pages  52  to  57)  on  the  day  in  question,  in  a  manner  directly 
the  reverse  of  that  indicated  therein. 


The  most  interesting  of  the  Astronomical  phenomena  happening  in 
tlie^ear  lcJ35,  and  visible  in  the  United  Slates,  are  the  Occultation  of 
Jupiter  in  April,  the  return  ef  Halley's  Comet  (otherwise  called  the 
Comet  of  1759)  to  its  perihelion,  on  l)ie  4th  of  November,  and,  on  the 
7th  of  tlie  same  month,  the  transit  of  Mercury  over  the  disc  of  the  Sun. 

A  communication  of  any  observations  that  may  be  made  on  the  total 
eclipse  of  the  Sun  of  November  of  the  coming  y«?ar,  tocrether  with  the 
correct  Latitude  of  the  place  of  observation,  will  be  thankfully  received 
bv  the  Editor  of  the  Astronomical  department,  and  the  Longitude  of  the 
place  be  thence  deduced.

Point  first  touched  93*^  &  j&om  the  vertex. 


The  phases  of  the  Eclipse  at  the  foUovving  places  were  not  strictly 
computed  (which  was  considered un  necessary),  but  were  estimated  from 
the  preceding.  It  is  believed,  however,  that  they  will  be  found  by  ob- 
servation to  be  very  near  approximations  to  the  truth.

u'.  The  same  longitude  reckoned  from  their  ascending  node  in  the 
ecliptic. 

\*  It  has  been  recently  discovered,  that  Saturn  is  not  placed  exactly 
in  the  centre  of  the  rings.  This  singular  circumstance  was  for  some 
time  considered  an  optical  illusion,  occasioned  by  the  shadow  of  the 
planet  on  the  ring ;  but  Professor  Struve  has  ascertained,  with  the  cele- 
brated Dorpat  telescope,  that  the  rings  are  actually  eccentric.  The 
eccentricity  is,  however,  too  small  to  be  perceived  by  any  other  than 
the  very  best  and  most  powerful  telescopes. 


ASPECTS  OF  THE  PLANETS  IN  1834. 

The  inferior  planets  (Mercury  and  Venus),  from  their  superior  to  their 
inferior  conjunctions,  and  the  superior  planets,  faom  their  oppositions  to 
tlieir  conjunctions,  pass  the  meridian' between  noon  and  midnight  and 
Maally  set  in  the  evening  after  the  Sun.  The  inferior  planets,  from 
their  inferior  to  their  superior  conjunctions,  and  the  others,  from  Utfir 
oonjonctions  to  their  oppositions,  pass  the  meridian  between  midnight 
and  noon,  and  osnally  nae  hefon  the  Son  in  the  morning.

The  unit  of  altitude,  at  any  place,  is  the  rise  of  that  tide  which 
arriTes  about  a  day  and  a  half  afler  the  time  of  New  or  Full  Moon,  at 
that  place,  the  Sun  and  Moon  at  the  moment  of  cj  or  ^  having  been  at 
their  mean  distance  from  the  Earth  and  in  the  plane  of  the  equator. 

The  unit  of  altitude  at  any  place  can  be  ascertained  by  observation 
only,  and  multiplied  by  the  quantities  in  the  above  table  will  give  the 
height  of  the  spring  tides  at  that  place  for  the  present  year. 

By  the  preceding  table  it  appears  that  the  tides  of  February  25th, 
March  26th,  April  24th,  September  4th,  October  3d,  and  November  2d, 
will  be  the  greatest  of  all  in  1834. 

The  actual  rise  of  the  tide,  however,  depends  so  much  on  the  strength 
and  direction  of  the  wind,  that  it  not  unfrequently  happens  that  a  tide, 
which  would,  independently  of  these,  have  been  small,  is  higher  than 
another,  otherwise  much  greater.  But  when  a  tide,  which  arrives  when 
the  Sun  and  Moon  are  in  a  favorable  position  for  producing  a  great 
elevation,  is  still  further  increased  by  a  very  strong  wind,  the  rise  of 
the  water  will  be  uncommonly  great,  sufficient  perhaps  to  cause  dam- 
age. 

The  following  Table  contains  the  Unit  of  Altitude  of  several  ports 
and  places  on  the  coast  of  America,  accoiding  to  the  best  authorities. 

llie  unit  of  altitude  of  the  several  places  in  the  Bay  of  Fundy  was 
apcertained  by  recent  observations.

TIDE  TABLE. 


The  following  Table  contaiiui  the  difference  between  the  time  of  high 
wmter  at  Boston,  and  &t  a  large  number  of  places  on  the  American  coast, 
bj  which  the  time  at  any  of  them  may  be  easily  ascertained,  by  sub- 
Irmeting  the  difference  at  the  place  in  question  from  the  time  at  Boston, 
irhen  the  sign  — is  prefixed  to  it ;  and  by  adding  it,  when  the  sign  is-^. 

The  time  of  high  water,  in  the  calendar  pages,  is  of  that  tide  which 
immediately  prectdes  the  southing  of  the  Moon.

The  Latitude  of  the  places  marked  witii  a  t  has  recently  been  ascer. 
tained  by  others,  and  communicated  for  publication. 

The  Longitude  of  the  places  marked  with  a  *  was  computed  by  the 
Editor  from  observations  on  the  Annular  Eclipse  of  the  Sun  in  February, 
1831 ,  alter  correction  for  the  errors  of  the  Moon's  place,  as  given  by  the 
tables  of  Damoiseau.  The  Longitude  of  those  marked  with  a  t  was 
recently  determined  by  the  Editor  by  chronometers,  by  comparing  the 
place  in  question  with  Washington,  the  University  of  Virginia,  Phila- 
delphia, or  Boston ;  the  position  of  which  is  supposed  to  be  correctly 
ascertained. 

The  Latitude  and  Longitude,  however,  of  very  many  of  the  places  in 
the  following  table,  where  no  recent  observations  have  been  made,  are 
to  be  considered  only  as  approximations.

II.     METEOROLOGICAL  IXFOmiATION. 


[From  th«  Companion  to  the  Britiih  Almaaae  for  1833.] 


I.  — ON  COMETS. 

The  jear  which  has  just  paued  awaj  has  been  distinguished  bj  the 
predicted  appearance  *  of  two  comets,  the  most  remarkable  which  have 
jet  failen  under  the  notice  of  astronomers.  .  These  are  what  are  com- 
monly called  the  comets  of  Encke  t  and  Biela  t-  The  latter  has  been  an 
object  of  fear  to  many  on  account  of  the  nearness  with  which  it  has 
approached,  not  the  eartli,  but  a  point  of  the  earth's  path.  As  publio 
attention  has  thus  been  turned  to  this  subject  in  an  unusual  degree,  we 
seize  this  opportunity  of  laying  before  our  readers  a  slight  account  of 
the  present  state  of  cometary  astronomy,  distinguishing  that  which  we 
really  know  of  these  bodies  from  the  many  surmises  to  which  they  have 
given  rise. 

The  signification  of  the  word  comet  has  varied,  as  new  bodies  have

name.  It  was  first  given,  as  the  word  denotes,  to  bodies  which  appear- 
ed in  the  heavens  with  a  train  of  light,  or  tail,  and  thus  included  some 
of  the  meteors  which  belong  to  our  own  atmosphere.  We  now  apply 
the  word  to  those  heavenly  bodies,  without  the  limits  of  our  own  atmos- 
phere, which  are  nebulous  in  their  appearance,  and  with  or  without  a 
tail.  We  may  divide  all  which  have  been  observed  into  three  classes : 
1.  Those  whose  returns  have  been  predicted,  and  the  prediction  veri- 
fied by  the  fact    These  are  three  in  number,  viz.  the  celebrated  comet

in  tbe  New  River  Head,  he  might  justly  be  blamed  for  assertin^r  more 
thin  lie  knew,  but  certainly  any  one  who  poeitively  denied  the  fact 
would  deeerre  the  lame  censure. 

Af  we  are  not  writing  for  the  scientific  part  of  the  community,  we 
will  My  a  few  words  on  a  very  general  fear  which  prevails  —  namely, 
tint  the  near  approach  of  a  comet  would  break  our  planet  in  pieces^  or 
at  leist  produce  a  great  accession  of  heat,  sufficient  perhaps  to  destroy 
animal  and  vegetable  life,  if  not  to  burn  the  world  altogether.  The 
argoment  aeems  to  have  originated  in  a  notion,  that  because  heat  pro- 
duces expansion,  therefore  very  highly  expanded  bodies  must  needs  be 
fery  hot.  It  would  be  as  good  an  argument  to  say,  that  because  expan- 
sion by  any  other  means  except  heat,  produces  cold,  that  therefore  all 
oometa  mast^ie  very  cold;  and  neither  argument  would,  in  the  least 
degree,  afibrd  matter  even  for  a  rational  conjecture.  We  can  form  so 
little  idea  of  what  the  state  of  a  planet  of  vapor,  it  may  be  consisting 
only  of  one  sort  of  matter,  would  be,  that  we  might  with  as  much  rea- 
eon  speculate  upon  the  possible  organization  of  the  possible  animalcule 
which  swim  in  that  vapor,  as  try,  in  the  present  state  of  our  knowledge, 
to  ascertain  whether  any  and  what  degree  of  danger  awaits  us  from 
such  a  source.  A  comet  may  certainly  strike  the  earth  in.the  next  cen- 
tury;  not  one  of  these  which  are  known,  unless  the  laws  of  nature  be 
singularly  altered,  but  some  one  or  other  yet  to  come.  It  has  been 
shown,  bnt  by  considerations  of  so  high  a  nature  that  the  result  cannot 
be  expected  to  bring  much  conviction  to  any  but  a  mathematician,  that 
if  a  comet  were  launched  at  hazard  into  our  system,  for  one  orbit  in 
which  it  could  strike  the  earth  there  are  281  millions  in  which  no  such 
thing  could  take  place  as  the  laws  of  nature  stand  at  present  The  ad' 
ToeaU*  of  cometary  interference  (we  have  met  with  some  whose  manner 
of  expressing  their  opinion  on  the  subject  almost  entitles  them  to  that 
name)  usually  suppose  a  special  interposition  of  the  Divine  power, 
which,  (resting  on  their  own  interpretation  of  certain  Scriptural  prophe- 
cies,) they  suppose  will  bring  a  comet  on  the  earth.  They  are  usually 
people  of  some  religious  feeling,  and  would  act  more  consistently  with 
the  idea  they  ought  to  have  of  their  own  ignorance  and  the  Divine 
power,  if  they  ceased  to  prescribe  to  the  Creator  in  what  way  it  should 
please  him  lo  alter  the  course  of  events  which  it  has  hitherto  been  his 
will  to  ammge.  It  is  impossible  to  produce  any  other  argument  on  the 
subject,  consistently  with  the  design  of  this  paper ;  the  province  of  nat- 
ural pliilosophy  is  to  collect  and  compare  &cto,  and  to  say  what 
will  be,  if  things  continne  as  they  have  been;  it  never  presumes  even 
to  conjecture  what  shall  be,  when  the  power  which  has  hitherto  dis- 
posed events  in  one  maimer,  shall  judge  it  right  to  ordain  a  different 
srraBgement.

68  on  COMETS.  [1834. 

There  are  many  who,  without  goin^  the  length  of  ietring  danger 
from  thie  shock  of  a  comet»  nevertheless  imagine  that  any,  nnosnallj  hot 
weather  which  happens  while  such  a  body  is  yisible,  or  going  to  be  Tie- 
ible,  is  caused  by  it  in  some  measure  at  least.  To  such  a  circamstance 
the  fine  vintage  of  1811  was  attributed,  and  many,  even  amonjg  the  edu- 
cated classes,  imagined  that  the  heats  of  last  September  and  'August 
were  occasioned  by  the  approach  of  Biela's  comet.  We  can  certainly  re- 
echo, from  this  side  of  the  channel,  the  complaint  which  M.  Arago 
makes,  in  the  Annuaire  for  1832,  already  alluded  to,  of  the  scarcity  of 
the  meanest  knowledge  of  scientific  facts  among  the  middle  ranks  of 
society.  With  a  burning  sun  over  head,  we  have  heard  tboae,  who 
might  have  known  better,  accusing  the  comet  in  the  manner  afbreaaid. 

It  appears,  however,  from  the  table  of  M.  Arago,  in  which  the  mean 
temperature  of  every  year,  from  1803  to  1831  inclusive,  is  placed  side 
by  side  with  the  number  of  comets  observed  in  that  year,  that  there  is 
no  visible  connexion  between  the  one  and  the  other.  Thus  1806  and 
1811  were  both  hot  years,  the  first  however  hotter  than  the  second, 
though  the  first  had  one  comet  only  of  no  note,  and  the  second  had  two, 
one  of  which  was  the  most  brilliant  which  the  present  generation  has 
seen.  Again,  the  year  1836,  with  its  five  comets,  was  not  so  hot  as 
1831,  which  had  only  one.  That  hot  years  in  general  have  more  comets 
than  cold  ones  is  very  true,  and  for  tliis  simple  reason,  that  the  former, 
generally  giving  a  finer  sky,  are  more  favorable  for  their  discovery.  We 
must  not  forget  that  the  greater  number  of  such  bodies  are  not  visible 
to  the  naked  eye.  Thus  all  the  years  between  1803  and  1831  inclosive, 
the  temperature  of  which  exceeded  the  average,  mustered  twenly-nine 
comets  between  them  ;  and  the  remaining,  or  cold  years,  only  -fifteen. 
We  must  therefore  say,  not  that  the  comets  brought  the  heat,  but  rather 
that  the  heat  brought  the  weather  which  made  the  comets  visible.  In 
the  period  above-mentioned  there  were  forty-four  comets  observed, 
counting  distinct  appearances  of  the  same  comet  as  different ;  of  which 
only  two  were  in  the  least  remarkable  for  brilliancy  —  those  of  1811 
and  1823. 

Having  shown  that  some  comets  are  bodies  in  the  highest  state  of 
tenuity,  and  conjecturing,  with  a  great  degree  of  probability,  that  the 
same  is  true  of  all,  we  may  mention  a  phenomenon  which  has  been 
several  times  remarked  by  different  observers,  viz.,  that  in  their  ap- 
proach  to  the  sun  they  appear  to  contract  their  dimensions,  or  the  neba- 
Ions  head  of  the  body  -diminishes  in  apparent  diameter.  As  they  recede 
from  the  sun  they  begin  to  dilate  again.  To  explain  this  phenomenon, 
some  have  had  recourse  to  the  highly  elastic  fluid  or  ether,  which,  as 
we  shall  presently  see,  has  been  supposed  to  fill  the  solar  system  at 
least.  If  this  ether,  say  they,  be  denser  as  we  approach  nearer  the  aon, 
we  muBt  expect  that  the  comet  will  be  more  compressed  by  it  as  it  ap-

pnMcliM  its  perihclkm,  and  wHl  tberef<Mre  be  confined  within  tmaller 
Umits.  Tothie  it  ieanawered,  and  jostlj,  that  such  an  explanation 
mi|rfat  Boffiee,  if  the  comet  had  an  exterior  case,  which,  not  being  incom* 
preaaible  itself,  should  hinder  the  ether  from  penetratingr  the  light  body 
of  Tapor.  In  the  memoir  of  Sir  John  Herschel  already  quoted,  three 
distinct  poisibie  causes  are  suggested,  two  of  which  are  entirely  inde- 
pendent of  an  ethereal  fluid,  and  all  so  probable,  that  it  maybe  the  phe- 
nomenon is  partly  due  to  STery  one  of  them.  In  the  first  place,  on  ac- 
count of  the  great  rarity  of  cometic  matter,  it  may  be  that  what  we  call 
cohesion  exists  only  in  a  Tery  trifling  degree,  so  that  perhaps  we  ought 
to  consider  the  motion  of  the  several  parts  of  the  comet  independently 
of  the  others.  For  example,  if  the  diamal  rotation  of  the  earth  were 
suddenly  stopped,  and  it  continued  in  that  state  to  move  round  the  snn, 
the  parts  nearest  to  the  sun,  being  mose  attracted  by  it,  would,  if  they 
were  free  to  move  by  themselyes,  describe  an  orbit  difiering  in  a  slight 
degree  from  that  of  the  parts  which  are  farthest  from  the  sun.  But  as, 
owing  to  the  cohesion  of  the  yarious  parts  of  the  earth,  they  must  all 
more  together,  the  orbit  really  described  by  the  earth's  centre  lies  be- 
tween those  which  would  be  described  by  the  parts  nearest  to  and  far- 
thest from  the  sun.  We  have  hitherto  considered  the  comet  as  one 
mass  of  matter,  the  motion  of  every  part  of  wliich  influences  that  of 
the  rest.  If,  however,  it  should  consist  of  particles  so  little  bound 
together  by  cohesion,  as  to  allow  of  each  particle  describing,  or  nearly 
describing,  its  own  independent  orbit,  the  consequence  would  be  just 
the  phenomenon  observed  —  namely  that  it  would  contract  as  it  ap- 
proached the  sun,  and  dilate  as  it  receded  again  from  it.  To  illustrate 
this,  draw  several  ellipses  about  the  same  focus, 
very  near  to  one  another,  and  let  one  particle 
move  upon  each  from  the. perihelion.  It  will 
be  evident  that,  as  the  particles  increase  their 
distance  from  the  sun,  they  increase  their  dis- 
tance from  one  another,  and  vice  versA.  The  second  explanation  pro- 
posed by  Sir  John  Herschel  is  that  perhaps,  by  the  motion  of  the  comet 
from  the  sun,  and  its  consequent  appearance  in  a  darker  part  of  the 
heavens,  some  layers  of  nebulous  matter  may  become  visible,  which 
were  not  so  before  on  account  of  their  yielding  too  little  light.  The 
third  is,  that  the  cometary  matter  may  consist,  lik%  a  fog,  of  small  par- 
ticles of  moisture  floating  in  a  transparent  fluid,  and  which  the  resist- 
ing medium,  being  hotter  near  to  the  sun,  renders  invisible,  by  raising 
their  temperature,  and  turning  them  into  vapor.  If  this  were  the  case, 
it  is  evident,  that  as  the  comet  approached  the  sun,  the  fog  at  the 
edges,  so  to  speak,  would  be  cleared  \ip,  and  consequently  the  apparent 
part  of  the  comet  rendered  less,  and  vice  versd.  It  is  of  course  impossit 
ble  to  decide  between  these  Ttry  Ingenious  explanations,  so  as  to  la^

''ifliiftjbe  pennittad  to  exitfeat  mj  opinion  on  a  subjoct  which  for 
t9df  jmn  ham  incenmUy  occnpied  me,  in  treating  which  I  have 
iToided  no  method,  however  circnitom,  no  kind  of  verification,  in  order 
to  retch  the  truth  as  fiir  aa  it  Uy  in  mj  power ;    1  cannot  consider  it 
odierwiee  than  completely  eatabliahed,  that  an  extraordinary  correction 
I  aeceeeary  for  Pons*  comet "  —  that  is,  the  one  which  all  the  world, 
except  Professor  Encke,  calls  Encke*B  comet  —  "  and  equally  certain 
that  the  principal  part  of  it  consists  in  an  increase  of  the  mean  motion 
proportionate  to  the  time."    Professor  Airy  adds,  "  I  cannot  but  express 
my  belief,  that  the  principal  point  of  the  theory,  namely,  an  effect  ex- 
actly similar  to  that  which  a  resisting  medium  would  produce,  is  per- 
fectly established  by  the  reasoning  in  Encke's  memoir."     Ifthiscon- 
dnnon  be  correct,  we  may  predict  that,  in  time,  this  comet  and  every 
other  will  fall  into  the  sun ;  we  know,  however,  that  the  medium,  if  it 
exists,  cannot  sensibly  afibet  the  planetary  motions  for  a  great  number 
of  centuries. 

There  seems  to  be  some  cause  in  operation  by  which  the  brilliancy 
of  comets  is  continually  diminishing.  That  of  Halley,  in  one  of  its  pre- 
ceding revolutions,  b  described  as  giving  a  degree  of  light  certainly 
superior  to  that  which  it  gave  in  16d2  and  1759.  Sir  John  Herschel 
could  only  see  Biela's  comet  through  a  reflecting  telescope  of  twenty 
feet  in  length,  an  instrument  of  enormous  power  in  the  collection  of 
light ;  and  though  he  afterwards  found  it  with  a  refracting  telescope,  he 
asserts  that  he  never  should  have  succeeded  with  the  latter,  unless  hs 
had  previously  known  where  to  look  for  it.  If  the  parts  of  the  comet 
have  so  little  cohesion,  as  has  been,  with  great  probability,  conjectured, 
it  may  easily  lose  a  part  of  its  substance  as  it  passes  through  a  resisting 
medium.  We  have  however  as  yet  but  little  specific  information  on 
this  subject. 

With  regard  to  the  cause  of  the  tails  of  comets,  we  can  say  nothing 
with  certainty.  Their  existence  affords  a  strong  presumption  for  the 
very  little  density  of  the  nuclei.  They  were  at  one  time  considered  as 
being  in  a  continuation  of  the  line  drawn  from  the  sun  to  the  co^iet ;  it 
has,  however,  been  shown,  that  they  always  fdll  a  little  behind  this  line 
with  respect  to  the  comet's  path,  and  have  sometimes  been  even  per-

74  INFLUENCE  OF  THE   MOON.  [1884. 

moon.  The  nnmber  of  rainy  days  in  the  last  of  these  intenrals,  is  to 
that  in  the  first,  as  696  to  845,  or  in  round  numbers,  as  5  to  6.  And  this 
proportion  is  not  only  true  of  the  twenty  years  taken  together,  but  also 
of  the  separate  groups  of  four  years,  which  give  analogous  numbers. 
We  are  therefore  to  conclude,  if  we  put  faith  in  the  observations,  that  it 
rains  more  frequently  during  the  increase,  than  during  the  wane  of  the 
moon. 

**  The  above  results  are  confirmed  by  a  series  of  observations  made  at 
Vienna,  and  discussed  by  Pilgram  in  the  year  1788.  On  100  repetitions 
of  the  same  phasis,  Pilgram  found  the  falls  of  rain  to  be  as  follows :  new 
moon  26,  mean  of  the  two  quarters  25,  full  moon  29;  consequently,  at 
Vienna,  as  well  as  at  Augsburg  and  Stuttgard,  it  rains  more  frequently 
on  the  day  of  the  full  than  on  that  of  the  new  moon. 

**  Another  element  remains  to  be  taken  into  consideration,  namely, 
the  moon*8  distance  from  the  earth,  which,  admitting  the  lunar  action  on 
the  atmosphere,  it  is  natural  to  suppose  will  have  a  marked  influence  on 
the  phenomena.  In  fact,  Schiibler  found  that  during  the  371  anoma- 
listic revolutions  of  the  moon  which  take  place  in  twenty -eight  years, 
the  number  of  rainy  days  included  within  the  seven  days  nearest  the 
perigee,  was  1169,  and  within  the  seven  days  nearest  the  apogee,  1096. 
From  the  observations  at  Vienna,  Pilgram  found  that  during  100  luna- 
tions the  number  of  rainy  days  at  the  perigee  was  36 ;  and  at  the  apo- 
gee, 20  only.  Thus,  other  circumstances  being,  alike,  the  nearer  ths 
moon  is  to  the  earth,  the  greater  are  the  chances  of  rain. 

«  <  Confining  ourselves,'  says  Arago,  <  to  the  principal  results,  it  aeeros 
difficult  to  resist  the  conclusion  that  the  moon  exercises  an  influence  on 
our  atmosphere ;  that  in  virtue  of  .this  influence  rain  falls  more  fre- 
quently towards  the  second  octant  than  at  any  other  epoch  of  the  lunar 
month  ;  and  lastly,  that  the  chances  of  rain  are  fewest  between  the  last 
quarter  and  the  fourth  octant.' 

''  The  influence  of  the  moon  on  the  terrestrial  atmosphere  seems  also 
to  be  rendered  evident  by  observations  of  a  different  kind,  namely,  ths 
mean  heights  of  the  barometer  at  the  different  lunar  phases.  On  calcu- 
lating  a  series  of  observations  made  at  Padua  by  the  Marquis  Poleni, 
and  extending  over  a  period  of  45  years,  Toaldo  found  that  the  mean 
height  of  the  barometer  at  the  quarters  is  greater  than  its  mean  height 
at  the  syzygies,  and  that  the  difference  amounts  to  0.46  millimetres. 

^'  From  the  observations  of  M.  Flaugergues,  made  at  Viviera  in  the 
department  of  Ardeche,  and  comprising  a  period  of  20  years,  there  results : 
mean  height  at  the  quarters  755.81  millimetres;  mean  height  at  Um 
syzygies  755,39 ;  difference  0.42. 

"  From  a  series  of  observations  made  in  the  Royal  Observatory  at 
Paris,  and  discussed  by  Bouvard,  the  following  results  were  found: 
mean  height  at  the  quarters  756.59  miUimeU^',  mean  height  at  the 
^y'ygi^B,  755.90;  difference,  0.09.

li&iiB.  Bat  they  maj  be  diamiseed  with  the  general  remark  that  thej 
had  their  origin  in  that  ignorance  which  confounds  signs  with  causes, 
and  are  now  disregarded,  excepting  by  the  most  illiterate  and  credulous. 
They  >re  besides  at  total  variance  with  the  theory  of  the  influence  of  the 
phases. 

**  The  agency  of  the  moon  has  not  been  confined,  in  popular  opinion, 
to  the  changes  of  weather ;  she  has  been  allowed  in  all  ages  and  coun- 
tries to  exercise  a  direct  and  important  influence  on  organic  life.  Many 
of  the  opinions  vulgarly  entertained  on  this  head  are  curious,  and  are 
founded  on  well  established  facta  ;  the  error  lying,  not  in  the  observa- 
tions, but  in  the  theory  which  makes  the  moon  the  cause  of  phenomena 
of  which  she  is  only  the  silent  and  unconcerned  spectator."

1818;  on  each  of  which  the  thermometer  sunk  to  — 11. 

The  mean  temperature  of  the  months  shows  that  January  is  generally 
the  coldest,  and  July  the  hottest  month  in  the  year ;  yet  February  was 
colder  than  January  in  14  years  of  the  43;  and  August  hotter  than  July 
in  9  years  of  the  same  period  :  in  3  years  (viz.  1790,  1796,  and  1798), 
December  wai  the  coldest  month ;  and  in  one  year  (1786),  June  was  the 
hottest. 

The  Spring  is  the  most  inconstant  or  variable  season.  Dr.  Holyoke 
remarks  of  the  January  of  1802,  that  it  was  "  perhaps  the  warmest  Jan- 
nary  ever  known.'*

1832  was  uncommonly  cold.  The  winter  of  1831 -2  was 
e^ere  ;  the  months  of  June  and  July  fell  considerably  below  the 
ncrage  hemi ;  and  early  frost  of  great  severity  did  much  injury.  The 
eoldeflt  day  in  1632,  was  on  the  27th  of  January,  when  the  mercury  sunk 
rt  sunrise  to  16  degrees  below  zero  ;  and  the  greatest  heat  was  91  de- 
grees. There  were  185  fair  days,  and  180  cloudy :  rain  fell  on  72  daysj 
mud  the  quantity  of  snow  amounted  to  18  inches.  Thunder  and  light- 
mng  were  noticed  on  21  days,  first  on  the  12th  of  March,  and  last  on 
S9th  of  September.  The  appearance  of  the  Aurora  Borealis  was  much 
lets  frequent  than  common. 

January  is  usually  the  coldest  month,  and  July  the  hottest;  but  in 

1831,  December  was  much  the  coldest  month,  and  in  both  1S31  and 

1832,  August  was  the  hottest.

FLOWERING    OF    FRUIT    TREES. 


[1834. 


To  THE  Editor  or  the  American  Almanac. 

lUKdntryf  June  4, 1833. 
Iff  compliance  with  your  request,  I  transmit  a  tabular  statement  ol 
the  flowering  of  the  three  most  common  fruit  trees  on  mj  estate,  in  this 
place,  3  miles  from  Boston.  Persons  conversant  with  the  meteorologi- 
cal history  of  this  country,  will  of  course  recollect,  that,  from  causes  as 
yet  unexplained,  there  are  occasional  yariations  in  the  climate  in  differ- 
ent parts  of  our  extended  country,  which  are  local.  So  that  a  compar- 
iaon  of  the  opening  of  flowers  in  one  section  with  any  other  given  one, 
in  tome  years,  will  not  truly  exhibit  the  average  difference.  It  is  only 
8  comparison  of  several  years,  which  can  definitely  settle  the  true  differ- 
ence of  climate  as  to  the  flowering  of  plants.  It  is  for  this  reason,  that 
I  have  extended  the  table  to  so  great  a  length. 
Respectfully, 

John  Lowell.

pro^oeed  1^  Mr.  ilefferson  to  the  Legislature  of  Virginia  as  early  ail 
1777|  —  the  ptaee  being  left  undetermined  in  the  plai;i.  In  1787  l>r. 
Thornton,  of  Washington,  formed  a  project  for  establishing  a  coloiiy.cir* 
llee  blacks  on  the  western  coast  of  Africa,  and  publicly  invited  thoii  Hi 
liuHachttsettB  and  Rhode  Island  to  accompany  him ;  but  the  plan  Mad

tw^  debated,  in  secret  session,  the  subject  of  colonizing  the  free  ooloiad 
^eoulatibn,  and  in  1801  passed  a  resolution,  instructing  Mr.  Mmirol^ 
^kli  dovemor  of  Uie  State,  to  apply  to  the  President  of  the  WSM

were  present  Jadge  Wwhin^n,  Mr.  Clay,  John  Randolph,  Mr.  Mer- 
0er,  Mr.  Fiiiley,  Elias  B.  Caldwell,  F.  S.  Key,  &c.  Most  of  these  gen- 
tlemen addreOTed  the  meeting.  Mr.  Randolph  said :  **  If  a  place  conld 
be  prcnrided  for  their  reception,  and  a  mode  of  sending  them  henoe, 
there  were  hundreds,  nay,  fhoosands,  who  would,  hy  manumitting  thebr 
dtree,  reHeve  themselres  from  the  cares  attendant  on  their  possession." 
This  meeting  proceeded  to  form  a  Society,  which  was  denominated  th» 
"  Ameriiaui  Society  for  Colonizing  the  Free  People  of  Color.'*  Bushrod 
Wariiington  was  elected  its  first  President.  Among  the  Vice-Presidents 
were  Mesnrs.  Crawford,  Clay,  Rutgers,  Howard,  Gen.  Jackson,  ReT. 
R.  Finley,  Ac.  The  second  President  was  Charles  Carroll.  The 
second, —  which  is  the  fundamental,  —  article  of  the  Constitution  of 
(he  Society  ayers :  **  The  object  to  which  its  attention  is  to  he  exclu* 
sirely  directed,  is  to  promote  and  execute  a  plan  for  colonizing,  with 
flieir  consent,  the  free  people  of  color  residing  in  our  country,  in  Africa, 
or  such  other  place  as  Congress  shall  deem  most  expedient  And  the 
Society  shall  act,  to  effect  this  object,  in  cooperation  with  the  General 
Goremment,  and  such  of  the  States  as  may  adopt  regulations  upon  ths 
tQl]9eet."  It  win  thus  be  seen  to  be  the  policy  of  the  Society,  not  to 
Interfere  with  Tested  rights,  —  not  to  inrade  the  Constitution,  —  nor  to 
act  upon  the  slave  population,  except  through  the  medium  of  the  ma»- 
ter.  It  will  also  be  seen,  that  from  the  first  it  has  looked  for  the  accom- 
pfishment  of  its  objects,  to  any  very  extensive  degree,  to  legislative  aid, 
rather  than  to  private  liberality,  while  with  the  assistance  of  the  latter,* 
it  has  been  engaged  in  laying  the  foundations  of  a  republic,  which  is 
destined,  it  is  believed,  to  be  a  lasting  blessing  to  the  Continent  of  Af- 
rica, and  an  nndecaying  monument  to  the  honor  of  America. 

Any  citizen  of  the  United  States,  annually  contributing  one  dollar  to 
the  funds  of  the  Society,  is  entitled  to  membership.  Thirty  dollars 
eonsCitotes  a  life  membership. 

There  are  three  (General  Agents  now  acting  under  the  authority  of  the 
Society  in  the  Northern,  Middle,  and  Southern  DepartmenU  of  the 
United  States :  the  Rev.  Joshua  N.  Danforth  is  in  the- first ;  Rev.  Henry 
B.  Bascom  in  the  second;  and  John  G.  Birney,  Esq.  in  the  third.  These

94  COLONIZATION   80CIETT.  [1834. 

1821 1  the  present  site  of  the  colony  of  Liberia  was  purchased,  as  affording 
the  best  prospect  of  health  and  prosperity  to  the  colonists.  It  is  situated 
on  the  western  coast  of  Africa,  in  6^  N.  Latitude,  and  extends  from  Gall>- 
nas  river  to  the  territory  of  Kroo  Settra,  a  distance  of  280  miles  alon^ 
the  coast.  About  3,000  emigrants  have  ^ne  out  from  the  United 
States,  one  thousand  of  whom  were  once  slaves,  but  are  now  freemen 
m  Africa.  The  chief  town,  Monrovia,  is  situated  on  Cape  Montserado, 
and  contains  from  800  to  1,000  inhabitants.  It  is  a  port  of  entry, 
visited  in  1831  by  nearly  GO  vessels.  The  exports  during  the  year  end- 
ing May,  1832,  amounted  to  $125,549;  the  imports  to  80,000.  Distant 
tribes  visit  the  colony  for  purposes  of  trade,  while  those  in  the  vicinity, 
to  the  number  of  10,000,  have  voluntarily  placed  themselves  under  the 
government  of  the  colony,  and  have  begged  that  their  children  might 
be  taught  (to  use  their  own  language)  *'  after  the  wkiu  man*s  fashion" 
The  number  of  natives  embraced  in  the  territorial  jurisdiction  of  the 
oolony  is  upwards  of  50.000.  Caldwell,  Millsburg,  Stockton,  and  New 
Georgia  are  the  names  of  four  other  rising  villages,  situated  at  suitable 
points  for  the  advancing  prosperity  of  the  colony.  The  population  of 
these  places  is  gradually  increasing.  In  the  early  years  of  the  Society's 
history,  the  emigration  to  Africa  was  very  limited.  Indeed,  a  very 
large  emigration  was  not  desirable  until  the  colony  had  acquired  such 
a  firmness  of  character,  as  would  constitute  a  sufficient  protection 
against  those  accidental  evils  to  which  colonial  establishments  are  ex- 
posed. During  the  thirteen  months  ending  Jan.  1, 1833,  eleven  hun- 
dred and  thirteen  colored  persons  emigrated  from  this  country  to  the 
colony.  Great  numbers  are  now  waiting  to  go,  but  are  prevented  by 
the  want  of  means  on  the  part  of  the  Society.  The  sum  of  $30  is 
adequate  to  the  transportation  of  one  emigrant. 

The  officers  of  the  colony  are  the  Governor,  Dr.  Mechlin ;  Lieutenant- 
Governor  or  Vice-Agent,  A.  D.  Williams ;  Sheriff, Roberts ;  and  a 

Council  of  Three,  which  is  about  to  be  enlarged.  The  first  named  gen- 
tleman only  is  a  white  man.  The  Society  makes  laws  for  the  colony, 
and  will  continue  to  do  so  while  it  remains  under  its  guardian  care,  — 
those  laws  being  regularly  received  and  ratified  by  the  government  of 
Liberia.  It  is  expected  ultimately  to  be  by  mutual  agreement,  indepen- 
dent of  the  government  of  the  Colonization  Society. 

Slavery  and  the  slave  trade  are  prohibited  by  law.  A  high  standard 
of  morals  is  said  to  be  maintained  in  the  establishment.  No  white  per- 
sons are  allowed  to  settle  in  the  colony  except  the  governor,  physicians, 
missionaries,  and  teachers.  On  the  whole,  the  existence  and  prosperity 
of  this  African  colony,  founded  precisely  two  hundred  years  afler  the 
colony  at  Plymouth,  are  considered  as  marking  an  era  in  this  age ;  and 
should  the  doctrines  of  universal  emancipation  happily  prevail,  it  would 
of  immense  importance  to  the  peace  and  prosperity  of  the  colored  race.

A  bill  to  appropriate,  for  a  limited  lime,  the  proceeds  of  tlie  Public 
Lands,  bj  dividing  them  among  all  the  States  according  to  tlieir  Fed- 
eral Population,  was  introdu(5ed  into  the  Senate  by  Mr.  Clay ;  and  it 
passed  both  hoases  of  Congress  jast  before  the  close  of  the  last  session  ; 
but  it  did  not  receive  the  signature  of  the  President.  The  annual  pro- 
ceeds were  estimated  at  63,000,000,  from  which  15  per  cent,  were  to 
be  deducted  as  an  additional  dividend  for  the  State  in  which  the  land  is 
ntuated  :  —  $450,000  (or  15  per  cent.)  from  3,000,000  leaving  j2,550,000 
to  be  divided  among  the  several  States,  in  shares  as  exhibited  in  the 
above  Table.

14G  I-NDIVIDUAL    STATES.  [1834. 

the  support  of  free  schools;  and  tlic  cause  of  education  has,  within  a 
few  years,  made  considerable  progress  tlirougliout  ahiiost  all  paits  of 
the  country  :  most  of  these  states  are,  however,  yet  destitute  of  a  thor- 
ough system  of  common  education.  la  a  great  part  of  the  country  in 
the  Southern  States,  the  population  is  not  sufficiently  dense  for  the 
convenient  support  of  district  schools ;  and  private  or  domestic  educa> 
tion  is  much  in  use. 

Jtcademiesj  ^c.  —  Academies,  grammar  schools,  high  schools,  and 
gymnasiums  are  terms  applied  to  seminaries  which  hold  an  intermedi- 
ate rank  between  common  schools  and  colleges.  Some  of  these  are 
classical  schools,  designed  chiefly  for  preparing  students  for  admission 
to  college ;  others  are  appropriated  to  English  education  ;  and  many 
are  of  a  mixed  character,  having  a  part  of  their  pupils  pursuing  the 
study  of  the  ancient  or  modem  languages,  and  more  of  them  pursuing 
English  studies.  Some  of  these  institutions  are  well  endowed,  and 
afford  instruction  and  sometimes  further  aid,  free  of  expense,  to  many 
of  their  pupils ;  others  have  inconsiderable  or  no  funds,  and  are  sup- 
ported by  tuition  fees. 

Colleges,  —  Before  the  American  Revolution,  in  1776,  only  ten  col- 
leges had  been  established  in  the  colonies :  the  whole  number  of  colleges 
and  universities,  now  existing  in  the  United  States,  is  upwards  of  sixty. 
These  institutions  differ  widely  from  each  other  with  respect  to  funds, 
endowments,  and  the  advantages  which  they  afford  for  education. 
Some  of  them  have  very  limited  means,  and  are  not  worthy  of  the  title 
which  they  assume ;  while  others  are  possessed  of  valuable  endow- 
ments and  able  professors  in  the  various  departments  of  literature  and 
science  ;  yet  none  of  them  are  on  so  large  a  scale  as  many  in  Europe. 

In  these  colleges  a  course  of  four  years*  study  is  required  in  order  to 
obtain  the  degree  of  bachelor  of  arts.  In  the  course  of  study  in  most  of 
them,  there  is  a  good  deal  of  difference,  and  yet  a  good  deal  of  similar- 
ity. With  regard  to  the  requisitions  for  admission,  there  is  also  much 
difference.  For  admission  into  the  Freshman  class  in  Harvard  Uni- 
versity, the  oldest  institution  in  the  country,  ''  candidates  are  examined 
in  the  whole  of  Virgil,  Cicero's  Select  Orations,  and  Sallust;  Jacob's 
Greek  Reader,  and  the  Four  Gospels  in  the  Greek  Testament ;  Adam*8 
Latin  Grammar,  and  the  Gloucester  Greek  Grammar ;  both  including 
prosody,  (Buttman's  Greek  Grammar  is  also  received) ;  writing  Latin ; 
Lacroix's  Arithmetic,  Euler's  Algebra,  and  Worcester's  Elements  of 
Geography,  Ancient  and  Modem."  The  requisitions  for  admission  into 
the  most  respectable  of  the  others  do  not  differ  widely  from  this. 

The  notices  of  colleges  are  generally  derived  from  official  docu- 
ments ;  but  as  the  official  statements  are  not  all  formed  on  the  same 
principle,  they  are  not  always  safe  guides  in  giving  [accurate  compara- 
tive  views  of  the  institutions.

Education. 

The  first  volume  of  the  American  Almanac  contains  a  tabular  view 
of  the  Academies  of  Maine,  and  also  of  the  general  state  of  education. 
The  summary  of  Common  Schools  was  derived  from  an  official  Report 
made  to  the  legislature  in  1825.  Since  that  time  there  has  been  no 
new  Report  on  the  subject ;  but  an  act  has  been  passed  by  the  legisla- 
ture, requiring  such  a  Report  to  be  made  hereafter  annually.  By  a  law 
enacted  soon  afler  Maine  was  erected  into  a  state,  every  town  is  re- 
quired to  raise  annually  for  the  support  of  schools,  a  sum  equal  at  least 
to  forty  emts  for  each  person  in  the  town,  and  to  distribute  this  sum 
among  the  several  schools  or  districts,  in  proportion  to  the  number  of 
scholars  in  each ;  and  by  another  act,  a  sum  received  from  a  tax  on 
banks,  amounting  annually  to  upwards  of  $20,000,  is  appropriated  to 
the  support  of  schools.  The  amount  required  by  law  to  be  raised  and 
expended,  in  1825,  was  $119,334  ;  and  the  sum  actually  expended  was 
$137,878  57.  The  number  of  persons  between  4  and  21, 137,931 :  — 
the  number  attending  school,  101,325  :  —  the  proportion  of  scholars  to 
the  whole  population,  computed  in  the  proportion  of  3  to  10. 

The  article  of  the  Constitution  of  Maine  relating  to  education,  is  as 
follows  :  —  '*  A  general  diffusion  of  the  advantages  of  education  being 
essential  to  the  preservation  of  the  rights  and  liberties  of  the  people ; 
to  promote  tliis  important  object,  the  legislature  are  authorized,  and  it 
shall  be  their  duty,  to  require  the  several  towns  to  make  suitable  pro- 
vision, at  their  own  expense,  for  the  support  and  maintenance  of  public 
schools  ',  and  it  shall  further  be  their  duty,  to  encourage  and  suitably  to 
endow,  from  time  to  time,  as  the  circumstances  of  the  people  may 
authorize,  all  academies,  colleges,  and  seminaries  of  learning,  within 
the  state;  provided  that  no  donation,  grant,  or  endowment,  shall  at  any 
time  be  made  by  the  legislature,  to  any  institution  now  established,  or 
which  may  hereafter  be  established,  unless,  at  the  time  of  making  such 
endowment,  the  legislature  of  the  state  shall  have  the  right  to  grant 
any  further  powers  to  alter,  limit,  or  restrain,  any  of  the  powers  vested 
in  any  such  literary  institution,  as  shall  be  judged  necessary  to  promote 
the  best  interests  thereof." 

B0W0015  College. 

Bowdoin  College,  at  Brunswick,  26  miles  from  Portland,  was  incor- 
porated in  1794  ;  the  first  class  was  graduated  in  180C.  It  derived  its 
name  from  the  Hon.  James  Bowdoin,  who  gave  it  6,000  acres  of  land 
in  the  township  of  Lisbon,  and  other  benefactions.  The  legislature  of 
Massachusetts  endowed  it  with  six  townships  of  land,  and  an  annual 
grant  of  $3,000 ;  and  this  sum  was  continued,  for  a  few  years,  by  the  le- 
^slature  of  Maine,  after  the  separation  from  Massachusetts.  The  college

This  seminary  was  incorporated,  in  1814,  by  the  name  of  the  <<  Maine 
Charity  School  " ;  was  opened  in  1816,  at  Hampden ;  and  not  long  after- 
wards was  removed  to  Bangor.  It  was  founded  for  the  purpose  of  pre- 
paring young  men  of  the  Congregational  denomination  for  the  ministry. 
Its  endowments,  which  arc  not  large,  have  been  derived  from  private 
donations.  The  course  of  study  is  similar  to  that  adopted  at  the  theolo- 
gical seminary  at  Andover.  The  library  contains  about  2,000  volumes ;

in  progress.  Number  educated  since  the  foundation  62 ;  number  of 
students  in  1833,  6.  The  seminary  was  suspended  afler  the  death  of 
Prof  Smith  in  1831,  and  did  not  fully  resume  its  operations  till  the 
summer  of  1832.    The  present  officers  are  —

EDUCATION. 

Common  Schools. 

The  townships  in  Vermont  are  all  divided  into  school  districts,  of  which 
the  number,  according  to  Thompson's  "  Gazetteer  of  Vermont,**  is  1612 ; 
and  each  district  is  required  by  statute  to  support  a  school  at  least  three 
montha  in  the  year,  independent  of  the  public  money.  In  every  town- 
ship there  in  a  school  right,  comprising  from  a  60th  to  a  70th  part  of  it. 
These  tracts  of  school  land  are  leased,  and  the  rents  form  a  part  of  the

public  money,  and  the  rest  of  it  is  raised  by  a  tax  of  two  cents  on  the 
dollar  on  the  Grand  List  (the  Valuation  for  Taxes),  which  is  required 
\>y  statute  to  be  levied  annually.  In  the  month  of  March,  the  clerk  of 
each  district  makes  a  return  to  the  town-clerk  of  the  children  in  his 
district  between  the  ages  of  4  and  18  years ;  and  the  public  money  is 
divided  among  the  districts  in  proportion  to  the  number  of  children. 
The  public  money  is  supposed  to  pay  generally  about  half  of  the  ex- 
pense of  the  schools.    . 

Academies  and  Grammar  Schools. 

In  all  the  townships,  except  the  Jfew  Hampshire  Grants^  one  right  of 
land  was  appropriated  to  the  support  of  County  Grammar  Schools,  which 
are  under  the  direction  of  trustees  appointed  by  the  county  courts. 
The  following  is  a  list  of  the  county  Grammar  Schools  and  Ac^emies, 
with  the  date  of  their  incorporation ;  but  some  of  them  are  not  at

UmvERSiTY  or  Vermont  at  Burlington. 
This  institution  was  incorporated  in  1791,  but  did  not  go  into  opera- 
tion till  1800.  It  is  finely  situated  on  the  east  side  of  the  village,  a 
mile  from  Lake  Champlain,  on  an  elevation  of  245  feet  above  the  surface 
of  the  water,  and  commands  a  delightful  prospect.  A  large  college  edi- 
fice of  brick,  which  was  completed  in  1801,  was  burnt  in  1824;  and 
since  that  time  three  brick  edifices  have  been  erected ;  two  of  them 
containing  rooms  for  the  accommodation  of  students,  the  other  a  chapel 
and  other  public  rooms.  The  university  possesses  considerable  endow- 
ments, consisting  principally  in  lands.  In  every  township  in  Vermont 
(except  those  granted  by  New  Hampshire,  134  in  number)  a  right  of 
land  was  secured  to  the  institution,  of  which  only  a  small  part  has  been 
leased,  affording  now  an  annual  income  of  about  $2,500.  The  corpora- 
tion have  voted  to  raise,  as  soon  as  July,  1834,  by  subscription  the  sum 
of  1^25,000,  of  which  012,000  have  been  already  subscribed  in  Burling- 
ton. —  The  Corporation  consists  of  17  members ;  the  Governor  of  Ver- 
mont, the  Speaker  of  the  House  of  Representatives,  and  President  of  tbf 
imiversity,  ex  officio,  and  14  elected  members.

EDUCATION. 
Common  Schools. 

Massachusetts  has  no  public  fund  for  the  promotion  of  education ; 
bat  common  schools  are,  in  this  state,  supported  wholly  by  a  tax  upon 
the  people ;  yet  there  is  no  state  in  the  Union  in  which  they  are  better 
maintained ;  nor  is  there  any  other  state  in  which  so  many,  in  propor- 
tion to  the  whole  population,  receive  a  liberal  or  college  education. 

The  laws  require  that  every  town  or  district,  containing  50  families, 
■hall  be  provided  with  a  school  or  schools  equivalent  in  time  to  §ix 
nM>Dths  for  one  school  in  a  year ; — containing  100  fiunilies,  12  months ;  — 
150  families.  Id  months :  —  and  the  several  towns  in  the  state  are  author- 
ized and  directed  to  raise  such  sums  of  money  as  are  necessary  for  the 
•upport  of  the  schools,  and  to  assess  and  collect  the  money  in  the  same 
manner  as  other  town  taxes.  Each  town  is  also  required  to  chooee 
annnally  a  school  committee,  of  3,  5,  or  7  persons,  to  take  the  general 
eharge  and  superintendence  of  the  public  schools.

"  The  population  of  the  state  by  the  last  census,  was  297,711 ;  and  the 
ordinary  expense  of  the  government  was  $60,852 ;  being  a  proportionate 
expense  of  twenty  cents  and  a  half  for  each  inhabitant.  But  the  state, 
daring  this  time,  received  $27,053  interest  on  its  three  per  cent,  stock 
•mH  HiviH^nds  on  bank  stock ;  $12,446  from  the  state  prison,  forfeitures, 
fines,  &c.  -f  and  $2,817  for  taxes  on  bank  stock  ownea  oy  non-resIucZtT  ^ 
all  amounting  to  $42,316 ;  which  being  deducted  from  the  ordinary  ex- 
penses of  government,  left  the  sum  of  $18,636  to  be  paid  from  direct 
taxes.  This  balance  of  $18,536  would  require  a  contribution  by  each 
inhabitant  of  the  state  of  less  than  six  cents  and  three  mills ;  and  a  tax 
less  than  three  tenths  of  a  mill  on  each  dollar  of  valuation  and  assess- 
ment returned  by  the  assessor."  —  Comptroller's  SUUemerU. 

EDUCATION. 

Common  Schools. 

Connecticut  has  the  greatest  School  Fund  of  any  of  the  states  in  the 
Union.  It  arose  from  the  sale  of  lands  reserved  by  Connecticut  in  the 
state  of  Ohio.  The  following  statement  respecting  this  Fund  has  been 
recently  made  by  the  Comptroller  of  Public  Accounts.  —  '*  The  whole 
capital  of  this  Fund,  productive  and  unproductive,  was  reported  by  the 
Commissioner,  in  1832,  to  be  $1,902,957.87.  The  interest  arising  from  it 
is,  by  the  constitution,  "  inviolably  appropriated  to  the  support  and  en* 
couragement  of  the  public  or  common  schools  throughout  the  state ;  ** 
and  by  law  is  apportioned  to  them,  according  to  the  ratio  of  persons  be- 
tween 4  and  16  years  of  age  belonging  to  the  respective  school  societies. 
The  whole  number  of  those  persons,  in  1832,  was  86,252  j  and  the 
amount  of  interest  distributed  for  that  year  was  $81,939.40,  being  95 
cents  for  each  of  those  persons,  and  equal  to  28  cents  for  every  inhabi- 
tant.   Thus,  while  the  state  was  distributing  for  the  benefit  of  schoole 


y  Google 


1834.] 


COIVNEOTICUT. 


173 


a  sozD  equal  to  28  cents  for  each  person  in  it,  the  ordinary  ezpenaefl  of 
the  government  require  of  the  people  only  a  ratio  of  contribution  lest 
than  6  cents  and  3  mills." 

The  school  districts  are  required  to  expend  all  the  money  which  they 
receiTe  from  the  Fund  in  payment  for  instruction ;  incidental  expenses 
of  every  kind  are  to  be  paid  in  some  other  way.  In  some  districts  an 
additional  sum  is  raised  to  pay  for  instruction ;  but  in  many  there  is 
none.  It  is  a  very  prevalent  opinion  that  the  operation  of  tlie  School 
Fund  has  been  injurious ;  that  the  length  of  time  during  which  the 
schools  are  kept  has  not  been  generally  increased  ;  that  the  interest  in 
them  has  been  diminished ;  and  that,  with  respect  to  education,  Con* 
necticut  now  bears  a  less  favorable  comparison  witli  the  other  Eastern 
States,  than  before  the  present  system  went  into  operation.  In  the  states 
of  Maine,  New  Hampshire,  Vermont,  and  Massachusetts,  in  which  the 
achoob  are  supported  almost  wholly  by  a  tax  on  the  inhabitants,  more 
money  is  expended  for  free  schools,  in  proportion  to  the  population,  than 
in  Connecticut. 

It  is  remarked  by  an  intelligent  citizen  of  Connecticut,  in  speaking 
of  the  school  system  of  this  state  :  —  **  We  know,  from  common  and 
oniveisal  experience,  that  little  interest  is  felt  in  tiiat  which  demands 
neither  expense  nor  attention.  Our  country  is  affluent,  and  pecuniary 
means  may  be  commanded  for  whatever  we  have  the  will  to  perform. 
Few,  comparatively,  are  so  indigent  as  to  need  charitable  aid  in  the  ed- 
ucation of  their  children.  A  public  fund  for  the  instruction  of  youth 
in  common  schools,  is  of  no  comparative  wortli,  as  a  means  of  relieving 
want.  A  higher  value  would  consist  in  its  being  mside  a n,instrumerU  for 
ezeitifig  general  exertion  for  the  attainment  of  that  important  end.  In 
proportion  as  it  excites  and  fosters  a  salutary  zeal,  it  is  a  public  blessing. 
It  may  have,  on  any  other  principle  of  application,  a  contrary  tendency, 
and  become  worse  tlian  useless.  It  may  be  justly  questioned  whether 
the  School  Fund  has  been  of  any  use  iu  Connecticut.  It  has  furnished  a 
supply  where  tliere  was  no  deficiency.  Content  with  the  ancient  stand- 
ard of  school  instruction,  the  people  have  permitted  the  expense  of  sus- 
taining it  to  be  taken  off  their  hands,  and  have  aimed  at  nothing  higher. 
They  expended  ^bout  an  equal  sum  before  the  school  fund  existed. 
They  would  willingly  pay  ^70,000  more,  if  made  a  condition  of  receiv* 
ing  the  state  bounty,  and  thus  the  amount  would  be  doubled,  for  an  object 
in  which  they  would  then  feel  they  had  some  concern."

Litchfield  Law  School. 

This  institution,  which  is  at  Litchfield,  30  miles  west  of  Hartford,  was 
established,  in  1782,  by  Tapping  Reeve,  chief  justice  of  Connecticut;  in 
1798,  James  Gould,  some  time  a  judge  of  the  Supreme  Court,  was  asso- 
ciated with  him ;  and  since  the  death  of  Judge  Reeve,  Judge  Gould  has 
been,  a  part  of  the  time,  assisted  in  the  school  by  Jabez  W.  Huntington, 
Esq.   The  whole  number  of  pupils  from  1708  to  1727,  inclusive,  was  730. 

According  to  the  plan  pursued  by  Judge  Gould,  the  law  is  divided 
into  48  titles,  which  embrace  all  its  important  branches.  Lectures  are 
delivered  daily,  usually  occupying  an  hour  and  a  half,  and  examinations

Asylum  for  the  Deaf  and  Dumb. 

"  The  American  Asylum  for  the  education  of  the  Deaf  and  Dumb  " 
was  opened  at  Hartford  in  1817,  Th.  H.  Gallaudet,  A.  M.  being  Princi- 
pal. The  present  Principal  is  Lewis  Weld,  A.  M. ;  and  there  are  9  aa- 
astants. 

The  fonds  of  the  Asylum  have  been  derived  from  private  donations, 
and  from  a  grant  of  land  in  Alabama,  made  by  the  Congress  of  the 
United  States,  in  1819.  These  have  furnished  the  institution  with  a 
large  brick  building  for  the  accommodation  of  the  pupils,  a  house  for  the 
principal,  and  out-houses,  including  two  work-shops,  in  which  the  mala 
papUa  work  4  or  5  hours  daily ;  and  have  enabled  the  directors  to  form 
a  permanent  fund  of  considerable  amount,  by  means  ef  which  the  an- 
nual charge  to  each  pupil  has  been  reduced  from  $200  to  115. 

The  following  statement  of  the  number  of  the  former  and  present 
pupils,  is  copied  from  the  17th  Report,  May,  1833.

neither  unreasonable  nor  unjust.  The  benefit  of  the  fund  may,  without 
wrong  to  any,  be  made  to  depend  on  a  willingness  to  aid  the  purposes 
for  which  it  was  created,  and  to  enjoy  its  advantages." 

ACAOEMIKS. 

There  are  few  academies  in  this  state  which  possess  any  considerable 
funds ;  and  public  institutions  of  this  kind  have  generally  declined,  and 
have  been  superseded  by  private  schools,  which  are  more  popular  and 
better  supported.  There  are,  in  several  of  the  towns  and  in  different  parts 
of  the  state,  respectable  and  flourishing  seminaries  for  the  education  of 
females,  for  preparing  lads  for  college,  and  also  for  affording  a  good 
EngHsh  education.  Among  the  respectable  institutions  for  these  pur- 
poses, are  the  Edgehill  Seminaj^  at  Princeton,  the  Young  Ladies'  Insti- 
tute at  Newark,  the  Mantua  Manual-Labor  Institute  near  Sergeantville, 
Lawrenceville  High  School,  Bloomington  Academy,  and  the  Athenian 
Academy,  at  Rah  way. 

College  of  New  Jersey  at  Princeton. 
This  college  was  established  at  Elizabethtown  in  1746 ;  the  next  year 
It  was  removed  to  Newark ;  and  in  1757,  to  Princeton.  It  has  long 
been  a  highly  respectable  and  flourishing  seminary,  and  here  many  dis- 
tinguished men  have  received  their  education.  The  college  edifice, 
•tyled  Nassau  Hall,  is  built  of  stone,  four  stories  high,  175  feet  by  50, 
containing  a  chapel,  and  60  rooms  for  students.  There  are  also  build- 
ings for  the  library,  philosophical  apparatus,  museum,  refectory,  recita- 
tion-rooms, &c.  The  college  library  contains  7,000  volumes ;  and  the 
students'  libraries  4,000.  The  board  of  Trustees  consists  of  the  governor 
of  the  state  (who  is  president  ex  officio),  10  other  laymen,  and  10  clergy- 
men.

Outlines  of  the  Constitution  as  amended,  December  2,  1831. 

The  supreme  executive  power  is  vested  in  a  governor  who  is  chosen 
by  the  citizens,  and  holds  his  office  during  4  years  from  the  third  Tues- 
day in  January  next  ensuing  his  election ;  and  he  is  not  eligible  a  sec- 
ond time  to  the  office. 

The  legislative  power  is  vested  in  a  General  Assembly,  consisting  of 
a  Senate  and  House  of  Representatives;  the  senators  being  elected  for 
4  years,  and  the  representatives  for  2.  There  are  3  senators  and  7  repre- 
sentatives chosen  in  each  of  the  three  counties.  Whenever  a  greater 
number  is  judged  necessary  by  the  General  Assembly,  then,  two  thirds 
of  each  branch  of  the  legislature  concurring,  it  may  be  increased  ;  but 
the  number  of  senators  can  never  be  greater  than  one  half,  nor  less  than 
one  third  of  the  number  of  representatives. 

-  The   General  Assembly  meets    on  the  first    Tuesday  of    January, 
biennially,  unless  sooner  convened  by  tlie  governor. 

All  elections  for  governor,  senators,  representatives,  sheriffii,  and  cor- 
oners, are  held  on  the  2d  Tuesday  in  November,  and  are  by  ballot ;  and 
in  such  elections  every  free  white  male  citizen,  of  the  age  of  22  years  or 
upwards,  having  resided  in  the  state  one  year  next  before  the  election, 
and  paid  a  county  tax,  which  shall  have  been  assessed  at  least  six  months 
before  the  election,  enjoys  the  right  of  an  elector;  and  every  free  white 
male  citizen  of  the  age  of  21  years,  and  under  22  years,  having  resided 
as  aforesaid,  though  not  having  paid  a  tax,  (idiots,  insane  persons, 
and  criminals  excepted,)  enjoys  the  right  of  an  elector. 

The  judicial  power  is  vested  in  a  Court  of  Errors  and  Appeals,  a  Su- 
perior Court,  a  Court  of  Chancery,  an  Orphans*  Court,  a  Court  of  Oyer 
and  Terminer,  a  Court  of  General  Sessions  of  the  Peace,  and  such  other 
courts  as  the  General  Anemblj  may  from  time  to  time  establish.  —  To

compose  these  several  courts  there  are  five  jud^s,  who  are  appointed 
bj  the  governor,  and  hold  their  offices  during  good  behavior.  The  Su- 
perior Court  is  composed  of  the  chief  justice  and  the  two  associate 
justices  who  do  not  reside  in  the  county  where  the  court  is  held ;  and 
the  Court  of  Sessions  is  composed  in  the  same  manner.  The  Court  of% 
Oyer  and  Terminer  consists  of  all  the  judges,  except  the  chancellor  ; 
and  the  Orphans*  Court,  of  the  chancellor  and  the  resident  judge  of  tlie 
county. 

EDUCATION. 

There  is  no  college  in  this  state ;  one  was  incorporated  in  1803,  at 
Wilmington  ;  but  it  never  went  into  operation.  There  are  respectable 
seminaries  of  learning  for  both  sexes  at  Wilmington,  and  several  acad- 
emies have  been  established  at  different  places 

The  state  has  a  Scliool  Fund  of  5170,000,  the  income  of  which, 
together  wilh  a  small  tax  levied  on  each  school  district  of  four  miles 
square,  at  the  will  of  the  majority  of  the  taxable  inhabitants,  is  appro- 
priated to  the  support  of  free  schools.  No  district  is  entitled  to  any 
share  of  the  Fund,  that  will  not  raise,  by  taxation,  a  sum  equal  to  its 
share  of  the  income  of  the  Fund.

EUDCATION. 

A  law  in  favor  of  primary  schools  in  this  state  was  paseed  in  18Si5, 
and  has  been  partially  carried  into  effect  in  a  few  of  the  coilntiee.  The 
whole  amount  of  the  public  funds  for  the  support  of  eommon  echoole, 
(including  ^7,293.66  belonging  to  different  counties  for  the  edooatioB 
of  indigent  children),  was,  Dec.  1,  1831,  $142,063.76;  and  in  additton 
to  this,  there  is  a  tax  for  the  same  purpose  on  bank  capital  of  20  eeate 
on  every  IT  100.  The  state  also  appropriates  annually  the  snm  of  |^,000

^16,099.96  to  other  colleges,  academies  ($800  to  each),  and  eohooli ; 
and  aboat  $3,500  for  the  support  of  the  indigentnleaf  and  domb.

ftal  aidijeeta  which  engaged  the  attention  of  the  leading  pel^daiia  of 
l^fglnia;"  From  the  aame  article  we  aeleet  tiie  following  Ibata.  A 
general  ajatem  of  education  for  all  claaaea  of  the  community  eompia- 
bending  elementary  achoola,4:olleges,  and  a  univetaityi  wia  prepared  by 
Mr.  Jelforaon ;  but  it  appeara  to  haye  been  too  extenaiye  for  that  eaily 
p^od.  But  Uie  part  of  it  which  related  to  elementary  aehoola,  waa 
adopted  by  the  legialature  in  1796 ;  yet  it  waa  never  earned  into  exeeti- 
tiooy  apparently  becauae  it  imposed  a  tax  on  the  rich  Ibr  the  education 
of  the  poor. 

In  1809,  an  act  waa  paaaed  providing  for  a  LUerary  fVtnd,  by  appro- 
priating all  finea,  eacheata,  and  forfeiturea  of  every  deaoription  to  a  per- 
manent fund  **  for  the  encouragement  of  learning."  In  1616,  IHrginia 
appropriated  the  principal  part  of  a  large  claim  on  the  govemmelit  €i 
the  United  Statea,  for  military  aervicea  during  tbe  war  wi&  Great 
Britain,  to  thia  Fund ;  and  commissionera  were  appointed  to  deviae  a 
ayatem  of  education.  In  the  leasion  of  the  le^lature,  1817 -li^  It  waa 
found  that  the  Fund  amounted  to  upwarda  of  $  900,000,  ^deldiiig  an 
incdne  of  more  than  $50,000;  and  a  permanent  appfoprialMii  was 
made  of  $15,000  a  year  for  the  inipport  of  a  univenity,  and  ^dSyOOO, 
annually,  for  the  education  of  the  poor,  to  be  diatributed  among  "iha 
aeveral  countiea  and  corporate  towna  of  the  atato,  acceding  to  Ihalr

College  of  William  and  Mary. 

This  institution,  which  is  at  Williamsburg,  formerly  the  capital  of 
Virginia,  and  is,  next  to  Harvard  College,  the  oldest  in  the  United 
States,  derives  its  name  from  William  and  Mary,  sovereigns  of  England, 
by  whom  its  charter  was  granted  in  1691.  It  received  with  its  charter 
a  grant  of  £1,985,  20,000  acres  of  land,  and  a  penny  a  pound  on  tobacoo 
exported  from  Virginia  and  Maryland  ;  and  it  was  further  aided  by  pri* 
Tate  donations,  particularly  by  the  munificence  of  the  Hon.  Robert  Boyle. 
In  1693,  the  Assembly  of  Virginia  ordered  that  it  should  be  built  at 
Williamsburg,  and  made  some  additional  granta,  so  thai  \Vi  VDxmai

income  became  upwards  of  j£3,0U0;  bat  it  was  subsequently  greatly 
diminished.  —  "  The  funds,"  as  recently  stated  by  the  President  of  the 
college  f  **  consist  of  bonds,  stocks,  lands,  and  houses,  amounting  in  all 
to  about  $150,000,  not  yielding,  however,  a  revenue  in  proportion  to 
the  amount.'i  —  **  No  regular  list  of  students  or  graduates,  has  been 
kept  till  within  the  last  few  years ;  the  number,  therefore,  of  alumm 
we  cannot  determine ;  but  it  is  certainly  greater  than  from  any  other 
college  south  of  the  Potomac.  Owing  to  peculiar  circumstances,  our 
graduates  have  always  been  few.  Nine-tenths  of  our  students  have 
gone  through  one  course  without  applying  for  a  degree."  Mbny  of  the 
most  eminent  men  of  Virginia  were  educated  here.  The  condition  of 
the  college,  at  different  periods,  has  been  very  variable ;  but,  after  a 
period  of  declension,  it  has  had,  for  some  years  past,  a  considerable  de- 
gree of  prosperity.  —  It  is  under  the  legislative  government  of  a  board 
of '24  trustees  who  supply  vacancies  in  their  own  body. 

The  college  edifice  is  a  large  missliapen  pile  of  building.  The  college 
library  contains  3,500,  and  the  students'  library ,  GOO  volumes. 

The  Rev.  James  Blair,  D.  D.,  was  named  President  in  the  charter, 
but  is  said  not  to  have  entered  upon  the  duties  of  the  office  till  17^  ; 
he  died  in  1742,  and  was  succeeded  by  the  Rev.  William  Stith,  who 
died  in  1750.  The  Rev.  James  Madison,  D.  D.,  (Bishop  of  Virginia) 
was  president  from  1777  to  1812.  His  successors  have  been  the  Rev. 
W.  H.  Wilmer,  Dr.  J.  Augustine  Smith,and  the  Rev.  Dr.  Adam  Empie.

Education. 

This  state  has  a  fund  of  $  500,000  for  the  promotion  of  education ; 
one  half  of  which  ($250,000)  forms  an  academic  fund,  the  fnterest  of 
which  is  annually  divided  among  the  incorporated  academies  :  —  the 
Other  half  is  appropriated  to  the  education  of  the  poor,  and  the  interest 
of  it  is  divided  among  the  several  counties  according  to  their  popula- 
tion ;  but  no  general  system  for  rendering  tliis  fund  useful  to  those  for 
whom  it  was  designed,  has  been  devised  and  carried  into  effect.  There 
are  flourishing  and  well  endowed  academies  at  Savannah,  Augusta, 
and  some  other  places.  A  number  of  manual-labor  schools  have  been 
established  in  different  parts  of  the  state,  which  are  flourishing ;  and 
an  increasing  attention  is  now  paid  to  education.  For  some  further

state,  including  an  academy  to  be  established  in  each  county  ;  but  the 
design  has  never  been  carried  into  efiect.  In  lti02,  the  University  of 
Georgia,  or  as  it  is  otherwise  called,  Franklin  College,  was  established  at 
Athens,  and  the  first  president  appointed  The  institution  languished 
for  want  of  means ;  and  in  IdlG,  the  trustees  obtained  leave  to  sell  the 
onirersity  lands,  and  vest  the  proceeds  in  stocks.  By  tlie  sale  of  the 
lands  the  sum  of  $100,000  was  realized,  and  invested  in  the  state  bank 
of  Georgia ;  and  the  legislature  guarantied  that  it  should  yield  8  per 
cent.,  or  an  annual  income  of  $8,000;  and,  in  1830,  it  granted  an  addi- 
tional  annuity  of  $  G,000.  The  income  from  tuition  varies  from  $  3,500 
to  $  4,000 :  —  total  annual  income  about  $  17,500. 

In  1830,  one  of  the  college  buildings,  which  cost  $25,000,  together 
with  the  library,  was  burnt;  but  it  has  since  been  rebuilt  by  the  state, 
and  a  library  of  3,200  volumes  has  been  procured ;  and  the  students' 
libraries  contain  3,000  volumes.  It  now  has  two  brick  edifices  of  three 
stories,  120  feet  by  50,  for  the  accommodation  of  students,  having  also 
recitation-rooms ;  a  chapel,  84  feet  by  50 ;  a  philosophical  hall ;  a  hall 
for  the  meetings  of  the  trustees,  with  rooms  for  the  library  and  cabiuet 
of  minerals ;  two  society  halls  ;  and  the  president's  house.  The  philo- 
sophical apparatus  and  the  chemical  are  well  furnished  ;  the  cabinet  of 
minerals  contains  3,000  specimens ;  and  there  is  also  a  botanic  garden. 
The  t>oard  of  trustees  consists  of  28  laymen  ;  the  board  of  visitors  of 
10  laymen  and  5  clergymen.

U.MVKKSrrV    OF    Ai.aimmv. 

This  institution  was  incorporated  by  the  General  Assembly,  Dec,  1620, 
under  the  title  of  the  *'  University  of  the  State  of  Alabama  "  ;  and,  in 
1821,  two  trustees  from  each  judicial  circuit  were  elected  by  the  legisla- 
ture for  three  years,  the  governor  of  the  state  being  ex  officio  president 
of  the  board.  The  trustees  were  authorized  and  required  to  sell  by  auc- 
tion or  to  rent  the  university  lands ;  to  select  a  site  for  the  institution  ; 
to  superintend  the  erection  of  the  buildings  ;  to  appoint  officers  and  fix 
their  salaries ;  to  prescribe  the  course  of  studies,  and  make  regulations 
and  laws  for  the  university  ;  and  to  make  an  annual  report  of  its  finan- 
cial concerns  to  the  legislature  Jn  the  session  of  1827-8,  the  univer- 
sity was  placed  by  the  legislature  in  a  fine,  healthy  situation,  about  a 
mile  and  a  half  to  the  east  of  the  state-house  in  Tuscaloosa,  2G8  miles 
NN£.  of  New  Orleans.  According  to  an  official  report,  dated  Jan.  ]4, 
1830, 21,8451  acres  of  the  land  had  been  sold  for  the  sum  of  5304,()51.0G, 
of  which  ^111,712.59  had  been  invested  in  G  per  cent,  stock;  and 
24,234.^  acres  remained  unsold.  —  The  buildings  already  erected  consist 
of  a  Rotunda,  a  circular  edifice  of  three  stoiies,  in  the  centre  of  the 
grounds, 70  feet  in  diameter,  and  70  in  height.  —  the  ground  floor  or  lower 
story  being  used  for  a  chapel,  for  commencements,  examinations,  &«., 
the  2d  story  forming  a  circular  gallery  for  spectators,  —  and  the  3d  story 
forming  the  library  robm ;  —  of  three  edifices  or  dormitories,  all  three 
stories  high,  for  the  accommodation  of  students,  two  of  them  GO  feet  by 
30,  and  the  other  90  by  30, —  the  two  former  affording  accommodations 
for  48  students  each,  the  latter  for  72;  —  of  a  laboratory  containing  the 
chemical  and  philosophical  apparatus,  cabinet  of  minerals,  and  several 
lecture-rooms; — of  a  hotel  in  which  the  steward  resides; — and  of  4 
houses  for  professors.  The  cost  of  tliese  buildings  has  not  exceeded 
J100,000.  In  order  to  complete  the  plan,  there  are  required  three  more 
dormitories,  four  more  houses  for  professors,  and  another  hotel.  The 
university  went  into  operation  inApril,  1831,  a  president  and  three  pro- 
fessors having  been  previously  appointed  ;  and  the  first  commencement 
was  held  in  Dec,  1832.  The  library  consists  of  2,000  volumes,  and  about 
a  thousand  additional  volumes  have  been  ordered.

EDUCATION. 

A  correspondent  in  Tennessee  has  furnished  the  following  state- 
ment respecting  the  provision  which  has  been  made  by  the  legislature 
of  the  state  for  common  schools.  —  *'  All  the  capital  and  interest  of  the 
new  state  bank,  except  one-half  of  the  principal  sum  already  received; 
the  sales  of  the  Hiwassee  lands,  and  all  moneys  due,  and  which  will  here- 
after fall  due,  for  lands  sold  in  the  Hiwassee  district  of  country ;  all 
lands  which  have  heretofore  been  appropriated  in  this  state  to  the  use 
of  common  schools,  as  well  as  all  the  vacant  and  unappropriated  lands 
within  the  limits  of  the  same  ;  all  the  funds  denominated  School  Funds, 
which  have  accrued  from  the  sale  of  lands  at  12^  cents  per  acre,  and  at 
1  cent  per  acre,  together  with  the  interest  which  has  accrued  on  this 
und  ;  the  donation  of  John  Rice  of  5,000  acres  of  land  to  the  schooling  of 
the  poor  of  Cumberland  (now  Tennessee) ;  all  other  donations  by  devise 
or  otherwise,  which  have  been  made  to  the  state,  and  not  designated  to 
any  other  purpose  ;  all  the  stock  owned  by  tl.e  state  in  the  old  bank  of 
the  state  at  Knoxville,  namely,  400  shares,  are  appropriated  to  the  en- 
couragement and  support  of  common  schools. 

"  It  is  made  the  duty  of  the  several  county  courts  to  appoint  one 
commissioner  in  each  captain's  company  in  the  county.  The  commis- 
sioners so  appointed,  are  required  to  meet  at  the  muster-ground  of  the 
county,  lay  off  the  county  into  convenient  school  districts,  and  order  an 
election,  in  each  district,  of  five  trustees  for  the  same ;  who  shall  be 
chosen  by  voters  qualified  to  vote  for  members  of  the  General  Assembly 
of  the  state.  The  chairman  of  each  board  of  trustees  so  elected  is  re- 
quired to  repair  to  the  court-house  of  the  county  on  the  1st  Saturday  of 
June  every  year.  And  the  chairmen  thus  assembled  are  to  choose  not 
less  than  five  nor  more  than  seven  discreet  and  intelligent  citizens  for 
common  school  commissioners  of  said  county. 

^*  The  School  Commissioners  and  the  district  Trustees  are  both  incor- 
porated bodies ;  and  each  member  is  bound  by  an  oath  of  ofiice. 

"  The  Commissioners  receiving  the  moneys  are  required  to  distribute 
the  interest  thence  accruing  in  proportion  to  the  number  of  white 
children  between  the  ages  of  6  and  18  years  in  the  respective  districts, 
when  the  chairman  of  the  trustees  of  the  districts  shall  have  given  to 
said  Commissioners  satisfactory  evidence,  that  a  comfortable  ichool- 
house  is  erected  in  his  district,  and  shall  have  given  them  a  bond,  that

KENTUCKY. 


[1834. 


"  Our  facts,  on  this  subject/'  s&ys  the  Lexington  Joamal  of  Educa- 
tion, "  are  deduced  from  returns  made  by  the  assistant  marshals  engaged 
in  taking  the  last  census.  Full  certified  reports  were  received  from  78 
of  the  83  counties  of  the  state,  \vhich  show  that  there  are,  in  these  coun- 
ties,  between  1,100  and  1,200  schools,  in  which  there  were  in  the  sum- 
mer of  1830,  31,834  children  out  of  139,242,  in  all  the  counties,  between 
the  ages  of  5  and  15 ;  leaving  107,328  of  the  same  ages  reported  not  at 
scshool. 

**  The  sum  paid  by  these  counties  for  common-school  education,  in 
1830,  was  (supposing  the  same  number  of  children  to  continue  at  school 
during  the  whole  year),  $278,592.  —  One  county  (Morgan)  was  re- 
ported not  to  have  a  single  school  in  it,  or  not  a  child  at  school  out  of 
893  in  the  county. — The  proportion  of  the  children  at  school  of  the 
county  of  Bourbon,  the  highest  in  the  scale,  was  as  10  to  23.*' 

The  state  has  a  Literary  Fund  of  $140,000.  There  is  an  asylum  for 
the  deaf  and  dumb  at  Danville;  respectable  academies  or  high  schools 
aft  Lexington,  Louisville,  and  various  other  places. 

Transylvania  Universitv. 

This  institution,  which  is  at  Lexington,  is  the  oldest  of  the  kind  in 
tile  Weatern  States.  In  1780,  the  legislature  of  Virginia  made  a  grant  of 
8^000  acres  of  land  to  endow  a  public  school  in  Kentucky,  which,  in 
1783,  was  denominated  the  *'  Transylvania  Seminary ;  "  in  1788,  it 
was  fixed  at  Lexington ;  and  in  1793,  the  Rev.  James  Moore  was  elect- 
ed the  first  president.  With  the  Seminary,  the  Kentucky  Academy, 
which  was  founded  in  1794,  was  united,  in  1798,  and  the  institution 
was  incorporated  under  the  name  of  the  **  Transylvania  University." 
It  is  very  favorably  situated,  but  its  prosperity  has  been  variable.  In 
1829,  the  principal  edifice  was  burnt;  the  loss,  including  the  books 
consumed,  was  estimated  at  $  38,000 ;  but  it  has  been  since  rebuilt. 
The  library,  before  the  destruction  of  the  edifice,  contained  6,000  vol- 
umes :  it  now  contains  about  2,400 ;  and  libraries  belonging  to  the  sto* 
dents,  1,500.

at  court 

The  names  of  the  present  presiding  judges  are  as  follows.

EDUCATION. 

Common  Schools. 

A  system  of  common  schools  was  established  by  law  in  this  state  in 
1625,  by  which  an  ad  valorem  tax  of  a  mill  upon  a  dollar  is  asaesaed 
upon  all  the  taxable  property  in  the  state.  This  tax  is  united  with  the 
school  fund  arising  from  the  land  appropriated  by  congress  for  the  sap- 
port  of  schools ;  and  a  general  system  of  free  schools  similar  to  that  of 
New  England  has  been  carried  into  operation  throughout  the  statei 
and  is  becoming  useful  and  popular. 

ACADXMIXS. 

''There  are,"  according  to  Kilburn*s  Ohio  Gazetteer,  1831,  '<  15  or  90 
incorporated  academies  in  various  parts  of  the  state.  But  few  if  any  of 
them  have  regular  classical  schools  kept  in  them,  and  not  one  of  them 
is  endowed  with  any  permanent  fund  for  its  support."  —  There  are  now 
respectable  academies  at  Cincinnati,  Chillicotbe,  Dayton,  Columbus, 
and  several  in  the  Western  Reserve ;  and  at  Columbus  there  is  an  asy- 
lum for  the  deaf  and  dumb.

and  endowed  by  congress  with  two  townships,  or  46,000  acres,  of  land ;

Assembly,  as  soon  as  circumstances  will  permit,  to  provide  by  law  for  a 
general  system  of  education,  ascending  In  a  regular  gradation,  from

EDUCATION. 

A  thirty-sixth  part  of  every  township  of  land  is  granted  to  the  support 
of  schools  -f  and  three  per  cent,  of  the  net  proceeds  of  the  United  States* 
lands,  sold  within  the  state,  is  appropriated  for  the  encouragement  of 
earning,  of  which  a  sixth  part  is  required  to  be  bestowed  on  a  college 
or  university.  But  the  state  has  not  yet  done  any  thing  for  the  estab- 
lishment of  schools ;  and  no  system  of  general  education  has  been 
formed.  Funds  from  the  sale  of  lands,  have  been  received  to  a  consid- 
erable amount ;  but  instead  of  being  applied  to  the  support  of  schools, 
they  have  hitherto  been  employed  to  meet  the  demands  of  the  state. 
The  subject,  however,  arrests  the  attention  of  individuals ;  and  in  Feb- 
ruary, 1833,  a  society  w^as  formed,  at  Vandalia,  styled  tlie  '<  Illinois 
Institute  of  Education,"  the  object  of  which  is  the  promotion  of  educa- 
tion in  tlie  state. 

Illinois  Collkoe. 

This  institution,  which  was  founded  in  1830,  is  pleasantly  situated  at 
Jacksonville,  a  flourishing  town,  in  a  very  fertile  district  of  country, 
which  is  very  rapidly  increasing  in  population.  The  sum  of  $40,000 
has  been  raised,  wholly  from  private  benevolence,  to  be  expended  in 
the  purchase  of  land,  the  erection  of  buildings,  tlic  procuring  of  a  library, 
apparatus,  &c.,  the  support  of  instructors,  and  the  putting  in  operation 
Uie  system  of  manual  labor ;  but  no  provision  has  yet  been  made  for 
permanent  endowments.  There  are  two  college  edifices,  one  65  feet 
h/  30,  of  two  stories,  containing  a  chapel,  4  recitation-iooms,  and  9

rooms  for  students  ;  the  otlier  104  feet  l»y  40,  four  stories  lii^Hi,  besides  a 
basement  story,  having  two  wings  3G  feet  by  27,  of  two  stories,  occu- 
pied by  the  families  of  the  president  and  professors.  The  main  body  of 
the  building  contains  32  rooms,  having  each  two  bed-rooms,  for  stu- 
dents;' and  the  basement  contains  a  kitchen  and  dining-hall.  The 
library  contains  about  1,200  volumes  ;  the  chemical  apparatus  is  tolera- 
bly complete ;  the  philosophical  is  yet  very  limited.  A  farm  of  228 
acres  of  very  excellent  land,  with  three  work-shops,  belong  to  the  insti- 
tution. This  institution  comprises  two  departments,  the  collegiate  and 
the  preparatory.

No  students  have  yet  been  graduated,  and  only  two  classes  (the  So- 
phomore and  Freshman,  each  having  4  members),  had,  previous  to  the 
■ummer  yacation  of  1833,  been  formed.  The  following  remarks  are 
given  from  the  best  authority :  Aug.  1833.  —  "  Our  average  number  of 
students  has  been  G5,  including  both  departments.  The  greater  part 
are  yet  in  the  preparatory  department ;  but  a  considerable  number  will 
enter  college  this  fall.  Three  years  ago,  there  were  none  in  the  state 
fitted  to  enter  college,  and  no  preparatory  schools.  Hence  the  necessity 
of  fitting  our  own  scholars  for  college,  and  the  small  number  yet  in 
the  college  classes." 

Alton  Literarv  and  Theological  Skminart. 

This  institution  was  founded  by  the  Baptists  in  1833,  at  Alton,  on  the 
east  bank  of  the  jVIississippi,  4  miles  above  the  junction  of  the  Missouri, 
and  20  miles  above  St.  Louis.  It  is  designed  to  comprise  both  a  college 
and  a  theological  seminary.  A  brick  edifice  is  now  in  progress ;  and 
arrangements  have  been  made  to  obtain  the  library  (1,200  volumes)  at 
Rock  Spring,  where  there  has  heretofore  been  a  Baptist  seminary.

With  respect  to  those  Governors  who  have  been  elected  more  than 
oncCf  the  commencement  of  the  term  for  which  Ihey  were  last  elected, 
is  here  given. 

In  all  the  states  except  New  Jersey,  Maryland,  Virginia,  North  Caro- 
lina, and  South  Carolina,  the  Governor  is  voted  for  by  the  people  ;  and 
if  no  one  has  a  majority  of  all  the  votes,  in  Uie  states  in  which  such  a 
majority  is  required,  the  legislature  elects  to  the  office  of  Governor  one 
of  the  candidates  voted  for  by  the  people.  In  the  state  of  Louisiana, 
the  people  give  their  votes,  and  the  legislature  elects  one  of  the  two 
candidates  who  have  the  greatest  number  of  votes. 

The  Governors  of  the  Territories  are  appointed  by  the  President  of 
the  United  States,  with  the  consent  of  the  Senate,  for  the  term  of  three 
years. 

♦  Robert  P.  Dunlap  hai  been  choeen  by  the  people  GoVeraor  of  Mahie  for  the  year 
beginning  in  Janoary,  1834.

*  There  is  no  Senate  in  the  Legislature  of  Vermont ;  but  the  Execu- 
tive Council,  consisting  of  the  Governor,  Lieutenant-Governor,  and  12 
Counsellors,  elected  by  the  freemen,  Ere  empowered  to  lay  before  the 
General  Assembly  such  business  as  shall  appear  to  them  necessary ', 
also  to  revise  and  propose  amendments  to  the  laws  passed  by  the  House 
of  Representatives. 

t  The  number  of  Representatives  in  the  Legislature  of  Massachusetts 
in  1833,  was  501 ;  but  the  number  is  very  variable. 

t  The  pay  of  Uie  Senators j  in  the  Legislature  of  Connecticut,  is  $  9  a 
day  }  that  of  the  Representatives ^  $1.50.

§  Three  different  modes  of  choosing  the  electors  of  President  and 
Vice-President  in  the  different  states,  are  authorized  by  the  Constitu- 
tution,  viz.  by  the  people  by  districts,  by  the  people  by  a  general  ticket, 
and  by  the  state  legislatures.  The  same  states  have  not  all  uniformly 
adhered  to  the  same  mode ;  and  the  mode  may  be  varied  at  the  pleasure 
of  the  state  iegislatures.  The  tab\«  es]bi!b\\a  \)m  mcA«  ^t^<il\a«d  at  the

The  Bishops  of  the  Metliodist  Episcopal  Church  of  the  United  States 
have  no  particular  provinces  or  districts.  Each  one  is  bishop  of  tha 
church  throughout  the  whole  United  States.  The  Annual  Conferences 
are  severally  defined  by  geographical  limits ;  and  the  Bishops,  by  an 
arrangement  of  their  own,  so  interchange  their  visits  ;to  the  different 
Annual  Conferences,  that  each  Bishop  visits  each  Conference  once  in 
four  years.  The  General  Conference,  which  is  composed  of  delegatM 
from  the  31  Annual  Conferences,  meets  once  in  foor  yean.

*J'  The  **  Abr^g^  de  G^ographie  '*  of  Balbi,  from  which  these  Tables 
are  extracted,  was  published  in  1832 ;  but  the  statistical  statements  refer 
generally  to  the  year  1826.  The  Table  of  Europe  was  inserted  in  the 
American  Almanac  for  1832  ;  but  it  has  been  thought  advisable  to  give 
here  the  entire  summary  of  this  learned  and  laborious  geographer.  — 
The  statement  of  the  *irmy  relates  to  the  time  of  peace.  —  The  French 
franc  according  to  the  rate  of  exchange,  is  nearly  equal  to  20  cents.

The  government  of  England  is  a  constitutional  hereditary  monarchy,

the  aristocracy  in  the  House  of  Peers,  and  by  that  of  the  democracy  in 
the  House  of  Commons.  The  executive  authority  is  vested  in  the 
King  J  the  legislative,  in  the  King  and  Parliament.  The  King  has  the 
power  of  appointing  all  the  great  officers  of  state,  and  all  the  executive 
acts  of  the  government  are  performed  in  his  name  >  but  his  ministers

PARLIAMENT. 
The  Parliament  of  Great  Britain  consists  of  the  House  of  Lords  and 
the  House  of  Commons. 

House  of  Lords  or  Peers. 
The  Lord  High  Chancellor  Brougham^  Speaker. 

The  House  of  Lords  is  composed  of  all  the  five  orders  of  nobility  of 
England,  dukes,  marquesses,  earls,  viscounts,  and  barons,  who  have  at- 
tained the  age  of  21  years,  and  labor  under  no  disqualificatiou  ;  of  15 
representative  peers  from  Scotland ;  28  representative  peers  from  Ire- 
land ;  2  English  archbishops  and  24  bishops ;  and  4  representative  Irish 
bishops :  —  The  number  of  each,  in  1833,  being  as  follows : 

Dukes  (4  Royal  Dukes),  .        .     25'Representative  Peers  of  Scotland,  16 
Blarquesses,  .        .        .         19| Representative  Peers  of  Ireland,  28 

Earls, 106  English  Archbishops  and  Bishops,2(> 

Viscounts,    ....        18  Irish  Representative  Bishops,         4 

Barons, 1851  

Total  of  the  House  of  Peers,    427 

The  Lords  Temporal  are  Peers  of  the  Realm,  and  are  hereditary 
Counsellors  of  the  Crown  :  their  honors,  immunities,  and  privileges 
are  hereditary.  A  Peer  may  vote  by  proxy  :  when  sitting  in  judgment 
he  gives  his  vote  not  on  oath,  like  a  Commoner,  but  upon  his  honor. 
The  persons  of  Peers  are  for  ever  sacred  and  inviolable  from  arrest  and 
imprisonment  for  debts,  trespasses,  &c.  They  cannot  be  outlawed  in 
any  civil  action  ;  nor  can  any  attachment  lie  against  their  persons ;  and 
they  are  possessed  of  various  other  privileges  and  immunities. 

The  number  of  the  Lords  Temporal  is  indefinite,  and  may  be  increas- 
ed at  the  pleasure  of  the  Crown.  The  ancient  nobility  sit  in  the  house 
by  descent;  the  new-made  peers  by  creation;  the  16  representative  peers 
for  Scotland,  and  the  28  representative  peers  for  Ireland,  by  election- 
the  former  are  elected  for  each  parliament ;  the  latter  for  life. 

The  prerogative  which  the  King  enjoys  of  increasing  the  peerage  at 
liiji  pleasure,  is,  when  properly  exercised,  made  use  of  for  the  purpose 
of  rewarding  such  as  are  eminent  for  their  public  services;  but  there 
•re  too  many  instances  on  record  of  its  application  to  purposes  of  favor- 
itism ;  and  not  a  few  to  the  unworthy  one  of  insuring  votes  in  the 
Upper  House,  for  the  carrying  of  an  obnoxious  and  oppressive  measure.

GREAT    BRITAUr. 


[1834. 


House  of  Cummons. 

The  Hoase  of  Commons  coDsists  of  knights,  citizens,  and  burgesses, 
respectively  chosen  by  counties,  cities,  and  boroughs.  It  is  not  accu- 
rately and  satisfactorily  ascertained  at  what  precise  period  the  Parlia- 
ment, as  it  is  now  constituted,  was  formed ;  that  is,  when  the  Commons 
first  began  to  compose  a  distinct  assembly  from  the  Lords ;  but  the 
generally  received  opinion  is,  that  the  Parliament  was,  on  the  whole, 
much  the  same  as  it  now  is,  so  long  ago  as  the  17th  year  of  King  John, 
A.  D.  1215.  (See  *»  New  Edinburgh  Encyclopedia,"  Vol.  VJII.  p. 
616.)  The  first  Speaker  certainly  known  was  Petrus  de  Mountford, 
chosen  in  1260,  in  the  reign  of  Henry  III.  See  "  Key  to  Botli  Houses 
of  Parliament.** 

Since  the  period  when  the  House  of  Commons  was  first  constituted, 
various  changes  have  taken  place  with  respect  both  to  the  number  of 
members,  and  the  places  represented.  In  the  reign  of  Henry  VI.  the 
number  of  members  was  upwards  of  300  ;  in  the  first  parliament  of  Hen- 
ry VII,  298 ;  in  the  time  of  Sir  Edward  Coke,  493  ;  and  since  the  union 
of  Ireland  with  Great  BriUin,  in  1801,  658. 

The  duration  of  Parliament  was  formerly  for  three  years ;  but  the 
Septennial  Act,  in  1715,  extended  the  duration  to  seven  years,  unless 
dissolved  by  the  King ;  but  it  seldom  happens  that  Parliament  sits  out 
this  period.  The  union  with  Ireland  was  carried  into  effect,  January 
1,  180],  and  the  Parliament,  which  met  the  same  month,  and  which 
included  the  members  from  Ireland,  is  styled  the  First  Imperial  Pariia- 
ment,  or  the  First  Parliament  of  the  United  Kingdom.  The  following 
Parliaments  have  since  been  elected  :

NOTICES  OF  DISTINGUISHED  PERSONS 
DECEASED  IN  1832. 


A  NEW  department  of  the  Almanac  ie  here  opened,  in  which  it  b  de- 
signed to  give,  not  only  an  annual  obituary  of  distinguished  persons, 
but  also  brief  biographical  notices  of  some  of  the  most  eminent. 

The  year  1832  was  remarkable  for  the  death  of  many  illustrious  men, 
brief  notices  of  whom  are  here  given. 

THE  YEAR  1832. 
1.    Andrew  Bell,  D.  D. 

Jan.  27.  At  Cheltenham,  in  his  80th  year,  the  Rev.  Andrew  Bell, 
O.  D.,  LL.  D.,  F.  R.  S.  £.,  Fellow  of  the  Asiatic  Society,  Prebendary 
of  Westminster,  and  Master  of  Sherbom  Hospital ;  the  founder  of  *^  tbo 
Bell  or  Madras  System  of  Education."  His  remains  were  removed  to 
London,  and  deposited  in  Westminster  Abbey. 

Dr.  Bell  was  born  and  educated  at  St.  Andrew's,  in  Scotland,  and 
spent  some  part  of  his  early  life  in  America.  In  1789,  he  went  to  In* 
dia,  and  resided  as  a  minister  at  Madras,  where,  having  undertaken  ttm 
anperintendence  of  the  Military  Male  Orphan  Asylum,  he  formed  and 
introduced  the  system  of  mutual  instrucCion.  In  1796,  he  returned  to 
England  and  submitted  his  Report  to  the  authorities  at  home.  The  sys- 
tem was  soon  aflerwards  adopted  in  that  country,  and  has  since  been 
widely  diffused  over  the  civilized  world.  **  The  cfstablishment  of  10,000 
schools  in  Great  Britain  alone,  without  any  legislative  assistance, 
wherein  600,000  children  are  educated  by  voluntary  aid  and  charity, 
speaks  volumes  in  his  favor."  He  had  amassed  a  large  fortune  in 
India,  which  before  his  death  he  distributed  among  the  institutions  of 
Scodand.  To  his  native  city  of  St.  Andrew's  he  leH  £10,000,  besides 
a  sum  of  £50,000  for  the  building  and  endowment  of  a  new  college  at 
that  place. 

2.   BONSTETTEN. 

Februarys. —  At  Geneva,  Charles  Victor  de  Bonstetten,  aged  87;  a 
native  of  Berne  ;  and  distinguished  as  a  moralist,  a  politician,  a  meta- 
physician, a  geologist,  and  a  traveller. 

3.  Rev.  George  Crabbe. 

February  8.  —  At  Trowbridge,  in  Wiltshire,  aged  77,  the  Rev.  Georgs

Suffolk,  Dec.  24, 1754 ;  and,  after  having  received  a  very  limited  claMJcal 
education,  he  was  apprenticed  to  the  hunness  of  a  surgeon  and  apothe- 
cary ;  but  he  had  little  fondness  for  his  profession  ;  and  having  cultivated 
ft  taste  for  poetry,  he  repaired  to  London,  at  about  the  age  of  24,  as  a 
literary  adventurer.  After  having  attempted  in  vain  to  gain  the  &vor- 
able  notice  of  the  public,  the  <<  youth  to  fortune  and  to  fiune  unknown" 
ventured,  without  an  introduction,  to  make  application  to  the  celebrated 
Edmund  Burke,  and  committed  to  him  a  large  quantity  of  miscellane- 
ous composition.  Mr.  Burke  received  him  with  kindness;  selected 
from  among  other  poems  "  The  Library  "  and  "  The  Village,"  (the 
former  of  which  was  soon  afterwards  published,  and  the  latter  in  1783) ; 
and  introduced  him  to  the  acquaintance  of  Mr.  Fox  and  Sir  Joshua 
Reynolds.  Sir  Joshua  submitted  to  Dr.  Johnson  the  manuscript  of 
'*  The  Village,"  '*  which,"  said  the  famous  critic,  in  his  letter  on  return- 
ing the  poem,  **  I  read  with  great  delight ;  it  is  original,  vigorous,  and 
elegant." 

After  a  short  preparation,  in  which  he  was  assisted  by  Mr.  Burke, 
Mr.  Crabbe  was  ordained  a  deacon  in  1781.  <<  The  Newspaper"  was 
published  in  1785 ;  «  The  Parish  Register  "  in  1807;  «  The  Borough  ** 
In  1810 ;  "  Tales  in  Verse  "  in  1812 ;  and  «  Tales  of  the  Hall "  in  1819. 

Mr.  Crabbe  has  been  characterized  by  the  Edinburgh  Review  as 
**  the  satirist  of  low  life."  «  He  is  a  writer,"  says  Mr.  Hazlitt,  «  of  great 
power,  but  of  a  perverse  and  morbid  taste. — His  poems  are  a  sort  of 
funeral  dirge  over  human  life,  but  without  pity,  without  hope.  He  has 
neither  smiles  nor  tears  for  his  readers." 

4.  Champollioit. 
March  4.  —  At  Paris,  in  his  42d  year,  John  Francis  ChampolUon, 
celebrated  for  his  works  on  the  antiquities  of  Egypt  He  was  bom  at 
Figeac,  in  December,  1790 ;  and  became  professor  of  history  at  Grenoble. 
Having  devoted  much  attention  to  the  study  of  Egyptian  antiquities,  he 
was,  in  1826,  appointed  to  superintend  a  department  in  the  royal  mu- 
seum at  Paris,  which  contains  the  antiquities  of  Egypt ;  and  in  1828, 
went  with  an  expedition  of  learned  men  to  that  country.  —  The  results 
of  this  journey  are  regarded  as  of  great  importance  in  relation  to  the 
Egyptian  hieroglyphics.  The  Egyptian  Manuscripts  belonging  to 
Champollion  have  been  purchased  by  the  French  government  for 
50,000  francs. 

5.   GOSTHE. 

March  22.  —  At  Weimar,  aged  82,  John  Wolfgang  von  Goethe,  an 
eminent  author  and  a  romantic  poet,  held  in  great  repute  by  his  coun- 
trymen and  admirers ;  and  styled  "  the  patriarch  of  German  literature  " ; 
according  to  a  writer  in  **  The  Foreign  Quarterly  Review,"  **  the  first 
man  of  his  nation  and  time  " ;  and  according  to  Prince  Puckler  Mus- 
kau,  « the  third  in  the  great  triumvirate  with  Homer  and  Shakspear*.**

1834.]  DKCEASBD  IN  1832.  299 

He  was  born  on  the  28th  of  AujtuA,  1749,  at  Frankfort  on  the  Maine. 
At  the  age  of  15,  be  went  to  the  Uniyersitj  of  Leipsic ;  and  after  paift- 
ing  fbor  jean  there,  he  resided  a  while  in  Alsace,  and  then  returned 
to  his  native  citj.  About  the  year  1776,  on  the  invitation  of  the  Grand 
Duke,  he  went  to  Weimar,  where  he  passed  the  remainder  of  his 
life,  loaded  by  his  patron  with  honors,  ennobled,  made  a  privy  counsel- 
lor, and  for  many  years  prime  minister.  Owing  in  part  to  the  liberal 
patronage  of  the  Grand  Duke,  the  little  court  of  Weimar  was  a  distin- 
guished focus  of  German  literature ;  and  in  the  early  years  of  the  present 
century,  this  place  reckoned  among  its  resident!  more  than  20  writers 
of  note,  at  the  head  of  whom  were  Goethe,  Schiller,  Wieland,  Herder, 
and  for  a  time,  Kotzebue.  Some  of  the  most  celebrated  of  the  produc- 
tions of  Goethe  are  the  "  Sorrows  of  Werther,"  "  Faust,"  and  «  Wil- 
helm  Meister's  Apprenticeship."  The  edition  of  his  works  published 
at  Stuttgard  and  Tubingen,  in  1830,  comprises  40  volumes.  He  left  his 
MSS.  to  the  care  of  Dr.  Eckermann,  whom  he  appointed  editor  of  his 
posthumous  productions ;  and  an  edition  of  his  whole  works  now  pub- 
lishing, will  comprise  55  volumes.  —  He  maintained  for  many  years  a 
tranquil  empire  over  the  literature  of  his  country,  which  was  implicitly 
acquiesced  in  by  the  candidates  for  literary  fame ;  yet  his  works  have 
been  much  complained  of  as  characterized  by  unintelligible  mysticism, 
and  as  of  irreligious  and  immoral  tendency. 

6.  Clementi. 

April  16.  —  At  his  cottage  in  the  vale  of  Evesham,  Worcestershire, 
Muzio  Clementi,  the  celebrated  pianist,  who,  according  to  Dr.  Crotch, 
«<  may  be  considered  as  the  father  of  piano-forte  music,  for  he  long  ago 
introduced  all  the  beauties  of  Italian  melody  into  pieces  calculated,  by 
their  ornamental  varieties,  to  elicit  the  power  of  the  instrument,  and 
display  the  taste,  as  well  as  the  execution  of  the  performer."  He  was 
bom  at  Rome,  in  1752;  practised  in  his  profession  as  a  musician  with 
great  applause  in  the  principal  cities  of  Europe ,  took  up  his  residence 
in  England  in  1810 ;  but  afterwards  ceased  to  take  pupils  and  to  play  in 
public.    He  was  buried  in  Westminster  Abbey. 

7.     C.   C.   COLTON. 

April  28.  —  At  Fontainebleau,  in  France,  the  Rev.  Charles  Caleb  Col- 
tan,  author  of  <<  Lacon."  He  was  graduated  A.  B.  at  King*s  CoUege, 
Cambridge,  in  1801 ;  was  afterwards  chosen  a  Fellow ;  took  orders,  and, 
in  1818,  obtained  the  vicarage  of  Kew  and  Petersham.  He  was  noted 
ibr  his  eccentricities,  irregularities,  and  inveterate  attachment  to  gam- 
ing, which  reduced  him  to  beggary ;  and  his  excesses  brought  on  a  dis- 
ease which  required  a  surgical  operation,  to  avoid  the  pain  of  which  be 
blew  out  his  brains.  He  is  chiefly  known  as  the  author  of  **  Lacon;  or 
Many  Things  in  Few  Words,  addressed  to  those  who  think,"  of  which

18.  Adam  Clarkb. 

August  26.  —  At  Bajswater,  near  London,  of  the  cholera,  aged  72, 
the  Rev.  Adam  Clarke,  LL.  D.,  F.  S.  A.,  &c.,  a  distinguished  Metho- 
dist preacher  and  divine,  a  man  of  great  talents  and  extensive  learning, 
particularly  in  the  oriental  languages  and  biblical  literature,  and  author 
of  a  well  known  and  learned  commentary  on  the  Scriptures,  and  vari- 
ous other  publications. 

He  was  born  in  1763,  in  the  county  of  Londonderry,  in  Ireland,  his 
father  being  of  an  English  family,  and  his  mother  a  Scotchwoman.  By 
invitation  of  Mr.  John  Wesley  he  became  a  pupil  in  Kingswood  school, 
then  recently  established,  and  was  sent  out  by  Mr.  Wesley  an  itinerant 
preacher  in  1782,  at  the  early  age  of  19.  He  was  greatly  admired  as  a 
preacher :  at  first  his  youth  attracted  great  numbers  of  hearers ;  but 
afterwards  the  extent  of  his  resources,  from  the  gifts  of  nature  and  the 
fruits  of  study,  commanded  attention  wherever  he  went;  and  hardly  any 
man  ever  drew  so  large  congregations,  or  of  so  mixed  a  character. 
He  continued  to  travel  in  various  circuits,  till  1805,  when  he  took  up 
his  residence  in  London,  where  he  passed  a  considerable  part  of  his 
subsequent  life.  To  his  great  talents  and  learning  he  united  the  virtues 
of  the  humble  Christian  ;  was  greatly  respected  by  all  denominations ; 
and  though  catholic  in  his  feelings,  he  was  strongly  attached  to  the 
body  of  Christians  with  which  he  was  connected.

was  born  at  Pest,  in  Hungary,  on  the  15th  of  June,  1754.  After  hav- 
ing travelled  through  various  countries  of  Europe,  he  was  appointed,  in

Marseilles,  he  published  in  French,  in  1814,  his  work  on  the  Attraction

entitled  "  Correspondanee  astronomiquef  geographiquty  hydrographique, 
et  sUUistiqiUf'*  of  which  14  volumes  in  8vo.  were  issued  prior  to  1826. 
The  disease  of  the  stone  compelled  him  to  discontinue  this  work,  and 
was  the  occasion  of  his  repairing  to  Paris,  where  he  died  by  an  attack 
of  the  cholera,  after  24  hours'  illness. 

21.    Priscilla  Wakefield. 

Sept.  12.  —  At  London,  Mrs.  Priscilla  Wakefield,  in  her  82d  year,

Sept.  21.  — At  Abbotsford  in  Roxburghshire,  Scotland,  Sir  Walter 
Scott,  Bart.,  tlie  most  popular  writer  of  his  age,  and  the  most  distin- 
guished novelist  in  English  literature.  He  was  born  at  Edinburgh  on 
the  15th  of  August,  1771,  the  birth-day  of  Bonaparte,  who  was  born 
two  years  before  him.  His  father  was  a  writer  to  the  signet,  of  great 
respectability  and  considerable  wealth,  and  his  mother  was  a  woman  of 
talent.  He  was  educated  at  the  High  School  of  Edinburgh  under  Dr. 
Adam,andattheuniversity ;  buthe  was  little  distinguished  in  the  ordinary 
branches  of  educaticoi ;  tliougli  he  early  acquired  a  large  stock  of  mis- 
cellaneous reading.  Af\er  having  completed  the  preparatory  studies, 
he  was  called  to  tlie  bar,  in  1792,  but  his  literary  taste  diverted  his  at* 
tcntion  from  the  practice  of  his  profession  to  more  favorite  pursuits. 
In  1800,  he  was  appointed  sheriff  of  Selkirkshire;  and  in  1806,  princir 
pal  clerk  in  the  Court  of  Session. 

His  first  original  work,  of  considerable  size,  was  "  The  Lay  of  the 
Last  Minstrel,"  which  was  published  in  1805,  and  was  received  with 
great  apphuse.  "  Marmion  "  followed  in  1808;  "The  Lady  of  the 
Lake  "  in  1810  ;  "  The  Vision  of  Don  Roderick  "  in  1811 ;  "  Rokeby  " 
in  1812.  Upwards  of  30,000  copies  of  the  "  Lay  "  were  sold  by  the 
trade  in  England  previously  to  1&29  ;  and  3G,000  of  "  Marmion  *'  before 
1825.  But  it  was  in  the  character  of  an  historical  novelist  that  he  ac- 
quired the  greatest  celebrity.  His  fictitious  prose  compositions,  as. 
published  in  Edinburgh,  comprise  no  less  than  74  volumes.  "  Waver- 
ly"  was  published  in  1814, "  Guy  Mannering  "  in  1815,  the  <<Antfn 
quary  "  and  the  First  Seriei  of  the  "  Tale*  of  My  Landlord  "  in  1816,

These  were  followed  in  rapid  succession  by  various  other  works,  which 
were  received  with  ^eat  applause,  but  were  all  published  anonymous] j ; 
nor  was  his  authorship  publicly  acknowledged  by  himself,  till  1827, 
when,  in  consequence  of  the  bankruptcy  of  his  publishers  and  his  own 
embarrassments,  the  fact  could  no  longer  be  concealed.  Besides  his 
poems  and  novels,  he  was  the  author  of  the  '*  Life  of  Napolepn  Bona- 
parte/* and  various  other  works,  and  was  a  contributor  to  periodical 
journals. 

The  health  of  Sir  Walter  having  for  some  time  been  declining,  in 
the  winter  of  1830-31,  symptoms  of  a  gradual  paralysis  began  lobe 
manifested.  In  October,  1831,  he  sailed  from  England  for  Italy;  re- 
turned to  Abbotsford  in  a  state  of  alnfost  entire  insensibility  in  July, 
1832;  and  died  on  the  21st  of  September.  Sir  Walter  was  In  stature

guise*'; became  a  distinguished  member  of  parliament;  and  suggested

long  time  occasioned  great  embarrassment  to  Bonaparte.  *He  retired 
from  parliament  in  1815.  While  residing  in  the  West  Indies,  he  im- 
bibed that  abhorrence  of  the  colonial  system  which  led  him  to  become 
one  of  the  most  zealous  and  formidable  opponents  of  slavery  ;  and  his 
anti-slavery  writings  and  speeches  exerted  a  powerful  influence  on  the ' 
subject.  He  was  nearly  connected  with  Mr.  Wilberforce  by  marriage, 
as  well  as  by  congeniality  of  religious  principles  and  character,  and 
aversion  to  slavery.

Jtxly  28.  —  In  London,  in  his  74  th  year,  WiUiam  WUbetforce,  one  of  the 
most  celebrated  philanthropists  of  modem  times,  and  whose  able,  zeal- 
ous, long-continued,  and  ultimately  successful  exertions  in  favbr  of  the 
abolition  of  the  slave-trade,  have  given  him  a  high  rank  among  the  bene- 
factors of  the  human  race.  He  was  bom,  Aug.  24, 1759,  at  Hull ;  was  edu- 
cated at  St.  John's  College,  Cambridge,  where  he  formed  an  intimacy  with

laborious  struggle,  was  finally  carried  during  the  ministry  of  Mr.  Fos,

toever  spoke  without  commanding  the  most  intense  interest.  At  his  • 
first  gesture  or  word,  the  house  and  galleries  were  hushed  into  silence 
and  attention.  His  voice  was  shrill  and  pipe-like,  hut  under  perfect 
command  ;  and,  in  its  lower  tones,  it  was  music.  His  tall  person,  firm 
eje,  and  peculiarly  '  expressive  fingers  *  assisted  very  much  in  giving 
effect  to  his  delivery.  His  eloquence,  taking  its  character  from  his  un- 
amiable  disposition,  was  generally  exerted  in  satire  and  invective ;  but 
he  never  attempted  pathos  without  entire  success.  In  quickness  of 
perception,  accuracy  of  memory,  liveliness  of  imagination,  and  sliarp- 
ness  of  wit,  he  surpassed  most  men  of  his  day  ;  but  his  judgment  was 
(eeble  or  rarely  consulted.  The  measure  of  his  capacity  and  his  acqui- 
■ttions  have  been  the  subject  of  some  dispute.  But  it  is  undeniable  that 
he  had  read  much  and  remembered  every  thing  he  had  read  ;  and  that 
he  was  well  versed  in  classical  literature,  in  English  history,  and  espe- 
cially in  the  English  tongue.  It  has  often  been  said  that  he  drew  his 
illustrations  from  his  common-place  book.  That  book  was  his  tenacious 
memory.  He  has  been  heard  to  say,  that  whatever  he  read  in  his  youth 
had,  in  after  life,  come  thick  and  fresh  upon  his  memory  ;  and  that  his 
earliest  studies  had  stood  him  in  better  stead,  for  ready  quotation  and 
application,  than  any  subsequent  acquisition. 

"  It  will  not  be  forgotten,  however,  that  he  was  capable  of  kindness, 
generosity,  and  courtesy.  He  was  a  kind  master,  a  good  neighbor,  and, 
amongst  his  immediate  constituents,  was  even  popular.  His  friends 
have  said  that  he  possessed  a  deep  vein  of  piety,  which  was,  on  some

the  condition  of  the  negroes,  as  may  combine  their  welfare  with  the 
interests  of  the  proprietors.  —  2.  That  it  is  expedient  that  all  children 
bom  afler  the  passing  of  any  Act,  or  who  shall  be  under  the  age  of  six 
years  at  the  time  of  passing  any  Act  of  Parliament  for  this  purpose,  be 
declared  free,  —  subject,  nevertheless,  to  such  temporary  restrictions  as 
may  be  deemed  necessary  for  their  support  and  maintenance.  —  3.  That 
all  persons  now  slaves  be  entitled  to  be  registered  as  apprenticed  labor- 
en,  and  to  acquire  thereby  all  the  rights  and  privileges  of  freemen,  sub- 
ject to  the  restriction  of  laboring  under  conditions  and  for  a  time  to  be 
fixed  by  Parliament,  for  tlieir  present  owners.  —  4.  That  to  provide 
against  the  risk  of  loss  which  proprietors  in  bis  Majesty's  colonial  pos- 
sessions might  sustain  by  the  abolition  of  slavery,  his  Majesty  be  en- 
abled to  advance,  by  way  of  loan,  to  be  raised  from  time  to  time,  a  sum 
not  exceeding  in  the  whole,  jC  15,000,000,  [afterwards  raised  to 
JC  20,000,000,]  to  be  repaid  in  such  manner  and  at  such  rate  of  interest, 
as  shall  be  prescribed  by  Parliament.  —  5.  That  his  Majesty  be  ena- 
bled to  defray  any  such  expense  as  he  may  incur  in  establishing  an 
efficient  stipendiary  magistracy  in  the  colonies,  and  in  aiding  the  local 
legislatures  in  providing  for  the  religious  and  moral  education  of  the 
negro  population  to  be  emancipated." 

**  The  apprenticeship  it  is  proposed  should  last  12  years,  and  the  ap- 
prentice is  to  be  entitled  to  all  the  rights  of  a  freeman.  He  is  to  work 
10  hours  a-day,  7i|  for  his  master,  and  2^  for  himself,  for  which  last  he 
is  to  be  entitled  to  wages.  It  is  for  this  one-fourth  of  his  time  that  the 
fifteen  millions,  which  will  in  all  probability  turn  out  to  be  a  gift  to  the 
planters,  are  to  be  advanced.  The  master  is  to  be  deprived  of  the  right 
of  flogging  his  slave.  With  regard  to  children  under  six  years  of  age, 
it  is  proposed  that  they  should  be  maintained  by  their  parents,  or  if  not, 
that  they  should  become  apprentices  to  the  masters  of  their  parents,  the 
males  till  24,  and  the  females  till  20,  in  consideration  of  food,  clothing, 
and  education."  —  Tail's  EULinburgh  Magazine.

respective  parties  is  to  assume  the  same  posture  as  before  the  French  ex- 
pedition of  November  last,  and  the  services  of  the  French  and  English

^^iMBeral  character  of  a  great  part  of  these  prodoctions,  as  well 
as  ftoBi  their  nombery  it  is  impossible  to  give  an  accnrate  aceonnt 
of  liMMB  for  anj  aasignable  time,  as  some  are  constantly  starting 
kilo  exiatence,  and  others  are  disappearing.  With  respect  to  a 
§9w  of  the  states,  oor,  efforts  to  obtain  information  have  not  been 
attended  with  the  aocceos  that  we  coold  wish ;  yet  the  volanie  will

obtain  authentic  information  will  sometimes  prove  iaeffisctaal ;  the 
best  guides  that  can  be  found  will  sometimes  lead  astray ;  and 
one  will  sometimes  copy  errors  which  he  has  no  means  of  detect- 
ing. It  has  been  our  endeavor  to  give  to  every  matter  that  comes 
within  the  plan  of  the  work  a  correct  and  fair  representation^  un- 
biased  by  local  or  party  prejudice ;  and  we  always  receive  with 
gratitude  the  friendly  assistance  of  those  who  are  so  kind  as  to 
furnish  us  with  the  means  of  correcting  errors  or  supplying 
defects. 

In  the  next  volume,  in  addition  to  the  usual  variety  of  miscella- 
neous matters,  and  a  further  notice  of  some  topics  that  are  left 
incomplete  in  this,  we  purpose  to  give  a  view  of  the  ecclesiastical 
statistics  of  the  different  religious  denominations  in  the  United 
States,  together  with  the  number  of  clergy,  the  prolusion  made 
for  their  support,  &c.,  and  also  an  account  of  some  of  the  most 
important  benevolent  institutions  and  societies,  which  form  so 
prominent  a  feature  in  the  modern  movements  and  state  of  society.

tion  in  the  effect  of  parallax  at  Boston  from  that  at  New  Orleans,  i^tX 
the  Transit  may  be  said  to  commence  at  the  same  moment  of  abscimU 
time  at  both  places.  The  effect  of  parallax  will  be  to  cause  the  first  con* 
tact  to  Uke  place  later,  at  Boston,  bj  20.6  sec,  and  at  New  Orleani  by 
24.2 sec,  than  at  the  centre  of  the  Earth;  tha  difference  (3.6  see.) 
being  the  difference  between  the  times  of  the  beginning  of  the  Traniit 
at  the  two  cities,  a  quantity  too  small  to  require  a  rigid  calculation  for 
any  other  place  in  the  United  States.  By  comparing  the  times  of  be- 
ginning and  end  as  seen  at  New  Orleans,  and  from  the  centre  of  the 
Earth,  it  will  be  observed  that  the  former  will  take  place  at  New 
Orleans  later  by  24.2  sec,  and  the  end  earlier  by  34.4  sec,  than  At  the 
Earth's  centre.  Consequently,  the  whole  effect  of  parallax  at  New 
Orleans  will  be  to  shorten  the  duration  of  the  Transit  58.6  sec. 

The  whole  Transit  will  be  visible  at  those  places  in  the  following  table 
which  are  marked  with  an  asterisk,  it  will  be  seen  that  all  of  them 
are  situated  in  the  southwesterly  extremity  of  the  United  States,  and 
that  even  at  them,  the  second  external  contact  will  take  place  but  a 
few  minutes  before  the  setting  of  the  Sun. 

The  time  of  the  second  internal  contact,  which  is  not  given  in  the 
following  table,  can  be  easily  obtained  from  the  second  external,  bj 
eabtracting  from  the  latter  Im.  47  sec. 

The  time  of  the  phases  of  the  Transit  at  any  place  not  contained  in 
the  following  table,  may  readily  be  ascertained  by  adding  to,  or  subtraci- 
ing  from,  the  time  of  the  phases  at  Washington,  the  difference  of  lon^

The  correcUoD  for  an  increase  of  altitude  of  one  inch  in  the  barometer, 
or  for  a  depression  of  one  degree  in  the  thermometer,  is  to  be  added  to  the 
tabular  refraction  ;  but  when  the  barometer  is  lower  than  '30  inches,  or  the 
thermometer  higher  than  47  degrees,  the  correction  becomes  subtractive. 

When  great  accuracy  is  required,  0,003  inch  should  be  deducted  from  tbo 
observed  height  of  the  barometer,  for  each  degree  that  the  thermometer  near 
it,  is  above  50  degrees,  and  the  same  quantity  added,  for  an  equal  depression.

72  THE    METEORS   OF    NOVEMBER    13tH^    183).  [183S. 

gently  in  that  direction)  opposite  to  the  course  in  which  the  meteor  had 
proceeded,  remaining  in  sight  several  minutes. 

Of  the  third  variety  of  meteors,  the  following  are  remarkable  exam- 
ples. At  Poland,  Ohio,  a  luminous  body  was  distinctly  visible  in  the 
northeast  for  more  than  an  hour.  It  was  very  brilliant,  in  the  form  of 
a  pruning-hook,  and  apparently  twenty  feet  long,  and  eighteen  inches 
broad  It  gradually  settled  towards  the  horizon,  until  it  disappeared. 
At  Niagara  Falls,  a  large,  luminous  body,  shaped  like  a.  square  iMe.  wu 
seen  nearly  in  the  zenith,  remaining  for  some  time  almost  stationary, 
emitting  large  streams  of  light.  At  Charleston,  S.  C,  a  meteor  of 
extraordinary  size  was  seen  to  course  the  heavens  for  a  great  length  of 
time,  and  then  was  heard  to  explode  with  the  noise  of  a  cannon. 

The  apparent  radiant,  or  the  point  from  which  the  meteors  seemed  to 
emanate,  was  observed,  by  those  who  fixed  its  position  among  the  stars, 
to  be  in  the  constellation  Leo.  At  New  Haven  it  appeared  in  the  beod 
of  the  aicldt  (a  collection  of  stars  in  the  breast  of  Leo),  a  little  to  the 
westward  of  the  star  Gamma  Leonis.  By  observers  at  other  places  re- 
mote from  each  other,  it  was  seen  in  the  same  constellation,  although 
in  different  parts  of  it,  a  change  of  position  supposed  to  be  owing  to 
the  effect  of  parallax.  An  important  observation,  first  published  by  the 
writer  of  this  article,  and  since  confirmed  by  the  concurrent  testimony 
of  all  the  observers  who  remarked  the  position  of  the  foregoing  radi- 
ant point  among  the  fixed  stars,  is,  thart  this  point  was  staiioitary  ^mong 
the  stars,  during  the  whole  period  of  observation ;  that  is,  that  it  did  not 
move  along  with  the  earth,  in  itd  diurnal  revolution  eastward,  but  ac- 
companied the  stars  in  their  apparent  progress  westward. 

According  to  the  testimony  of  by  far  the  greater  number  of  observers, 
the  meteors  wore  unaccompanied  by  any  peculiar  sound;  but,  on  Uie 
other  hand,  such  a  sound,  supposed  to  proceed  from  the  meteors,  was 
said  to  be  distinctly  heard  by  a  few  observers  in  various  places.  It  is 
well  known,  however,  that  persons  unaccustomed  to  making  observa- 
tions in  the  stillness  of  night,  are  apt,  when  listening  at  such  times,  to 
hear  sounds  which  they  associate  with  any  remarkable  phenomenon 
that  happens  to  be  present,  although  wholly  unconnected  with  it.  The 
question,  therefore,  whether  any  sound  proceeded  from  the  meteors, 
must  rest,  for  its  decision,  on  the  circumstances  of  the  case;  such  as 
the  peculiarity  of  the  sounds,  and  their  uniformity  as  described  by  dif- 
ferent observers.  In  the  present  case,  the  sounds  supposed  to  have 
been  heard  by  a  few  observers,  are  represented  either  as  a  hissing  noiu^ 
like  the  rushing  of  a  sky-rocket,  or  as  sliffkt  explosions^  like  the  burst- 
ing of  the  same  bodies.  These  comparisons  are  thought  to  occur  too 
vniformly,  and  in  too  many  instances,  to  permit  the  supposition  that 
they  were  either  imaginary,  or  were  deriv^  from  extraneous  sources. 
It  is  not  held  as  a  fact  well  established,  that  any  substance  reached

103  PEHIODICAI.   LITERATURE.  [I83& 

thootands  who  read  that  paper  in  various  quarters  of  the  globe,  what  a 
•cene  of  organized  activity  the  factory  presents  during  the  whole  night, 
or  what  a  quantity  of  talent  and  mechanical  skill  is  put  in  action  for 
their  amusement  and  information.  Nearly  a  hundred  persona  are  em' 
ployed  in  this  establishment,  and  during  the  session  of  Parliament,  at 
least  twelve  reporters  are  constantly  attending  in  the  House  of  Com- 
mons and  Lords  ;  each  in  his  turn,  after  about  an  hour's  work,  retiring 
to  translate  into  ordinary  writing,  the  speech  he  has  just  heard  and 
noted  in  short-hand. 

*<  In  the  mean  time  50  compositors  are  constantly  at  work,  some  of 
whom  have  already  set  up  the  beginning,  whilst  others  are  committing 
to  type  the  yet  undried  manuscript  of  the  continuation  of  a  speech, 
whose  middle  portion  is  travelling  to  the  office  in  the  pocket  of  the 
hasty  reporter,  and  whose  eloquent  conclusion  is,  perhaps,  at  that  very 
moment,  making  the  walls  of  St  Stephen's  vibrate  with  the  applause 
of  its  hearers.  These  congregated  types,  as  fast  as  they  are  compocred, 
are  passed  in  portions  to  other  hands ',  till  at  last  the  scattered  frag- 
ments of  the  debate,  forming  when  united  with  the  ordinary  matter, 
eight  and  forty  columns,  reappear  in  regular  order  on  the  platform  of 
the  printing  press. 

<<  The  hand  of  man  is  too  slow  for  the  demands  of  curiosity,  but  the 
power  of  steam  comes  to  his  assistance.  Ink  is  rapidly  supplied  to  the 
moving  types,  by  the  most  perfect  mechanism :  —  four  attendants  inces- 
santly introduce  the  edges  of  large  sheets  of  white  paper  to  the  junction 
of  two  great  rollers,  which  seem  to  devour  them  with  unsated  appetite  ; 
other  rollers  convey  them  to  the  type  already  inked,  and  having  brooght 
them  into  rapid  and  successive  contact,  redeliver  them  to  four  other 
assistants,  completely  printed  by  the  almost  momentary  touch.  Thus, 
in  one  hour,  4,000  sheets  of  paper  are  printed  on  one  side  ;  and  an  im- 
pression of  12,000  copies  from  above  300,000  movable  pieces  of  metal, 
is  produced  for  the  public  in  six  hours." 

*'  One  of  the  things  that  strike  me  most,"  says  Mr.  Rush,  in  his 
'  Memoranda  of  a  Residence  at  the  Court  of  London,*  *'  is  the  daily 
press.  1  live  in  the  north  of  Portman  Square,  nearly  three  miles  from 
the  House  of  Commons.  By  nine  in  the  morning,  the  newspapers  arc 
on  my  breakfast  table,  containing  the  debate  of  the  preceding  night 
This  is  the  case,  though  it  may  have  lasted  to  one,  two,  or  three  in  tbt 
morning.  There  is  no  disappointment ;  hardly  a  typographical  error. 
The  speeches  on  both  sides  are  given  with  like  care  and  fulness.  The 
cost  of  a  daily  paper  to  a  regular  subscriber  is  about  jC  10  a  year ;  but 
subdivision  comes  in  to  make  them  cheap.  They  are  circulated  by 
agents  at  a  penny  an  hour  in  London :  when  a  few  days  old,  they 
are  sent  to  the  provincial  towns  and  through  the  country  at  reduced 
prices.  In  this  manner,  the  parliamentary  debates  and  proceedings, 
impartially  and  fully  reported,  go  through  the  nation."

application  of  thOM  engaged  in  iU  use,  which  will  best  guard  againat 

dangers  incident  to  negligence. 

The  melancholy  incidents  which  hare  occurred  by  the  explosion 

iie  boilers  of  manj  steamboats  in  the  waters  of  the  United  States, 

the  shock  which  is  universally  felt  on  these  occasions,  had  impressed 

committee  with  an  opinion,  that  the  destruction  of  human  life  had 

1  much  greater  than  it  turns  out  to  be  upon  further  and  more  minute 

^stigation. 

The  whole  number  of  explosions  in  the  United  States  is  ascertain- 

0  be  fifty- two ;  number  of  killed,  256 ;  and  number  of  wounded,  104. 
The  committee  propose  to  proride,  by  legislation,  some  safeguard 
nst  explosions  produced  by  the  1st,  2d,  3d,  and  6th  causes  stated 
re.    Against  the  4th  and  5th  causes,  viz.,  carelessness  and  want  of 

1  in  the  engineer ;  and  an  undue  pressure  of  steam  upon  the  boiler 
ond  its  capacity;  no  adequate  remedy,  through  the  legislation  of 
igress,  can  be  afforded.  The  remedy  for  this  evil,  if  it  belongs  to 
slation  at  all,  must  be  furnished  by  the  legislation  of  the  several 
es.  It  would,  in  the  opinion  of  the  committee,  be  wiser,  however, 
ave  it  to  be  supplied  by  the  interest  and  discreet  judgment  of  the 
ers  and  masters  of  steamboats,  which  will  always  dictate  the  em- 
ment  of  those  best  skilled  as  engineera )  whose  characters  would 
pel  them  to  the  performance  of  their  duties  as  such,  in  a  manner

proximate  estimate  of  Che  whole  number  of  Ufos  whidi  haTe.l^eii  kit

''  Although  thia  is  a  melancholy  detail  of  casualties,  yet  it  seems  leas 
fi>nnidable  when  placed  in  comparison  with  the  ordinary  eausea  of 
mortality,  and  especially  when  contrasted  with  the  insatiate  demaada 
of  intemperance  and  ambition.  It  ia  believed  that  it  will  appear  smaS,*

aeeidenta  in  the  latter,  though  the  number  of  passengers  exposed  haa 
been  much  amaller.  In  one  case  that  happened  within  a  few  y^ars, 
thirty-aix  persons  were  drowned  on  board  a  aloop  in  the  Hudson  rivar» 
and  many  inatances  occurred,  involving  the  loss  of  a  amaller  anad^r

1835.]  AeaicuLTURE  aud  rural  economy.  117 

Bat,  thoagh  its  topics  are  numberleBs,  and  its  views  boundless,  the 
slightest  sketches  and  the  most  limited  glances  maj  prove  useful.  One 
may  obtain  refreshment  from  a  fountain,  without  drinking,  or  appropri- 
ating the  whole  of  its  waters. 

The  science  of  agriculture  is  becoming  more  and  more  important  as 
mankind  advance  in  civilization.  The  practical  farmer,  especially  in 
the  older  and  more  populous  parts  of  the  country,  must  not  only  under- 
stand, but  put  in  operation  many  of  the  modern  improvements  in  the 
art  by  which  he  obtains  his  livelihood,  or,  by  neglecting  to  make  the 
most  of  his  means,  he  will  take  so  many  retrograde  and  downhill  steps 
in  the  journey  of  life,  that  old  age  will  find  him  in  the  vale  of  poverty. 
The  cultivator,  who  does  not  keep  pace  with  his  neighbors,  as  regards 
agricultural  improvement  and  information,  will  find  himself  to  be  the 
poorer  in  consequence  of  the  intelligence  and  the  plenty  which  sur- 
round him.  He  will  be  like  a  stunted  oak,  which  is  deprived  of  light 
and  air  by  its  more  towering  neighbors. 

But  there  may  be  retrograde  steps  in  agriculture,  as  well  as  in  other 
arts.  We  would  not  advise  the  farmer,  in  middling  or  in  low  circum- 
stances, to  make  expensive  experiments,  nor  to  adopt  every  novelty  in 
husbandry  on  slight  grounds  without  being  well  convinced  by  testi- 
mony, observation,  or  experience  of  its  beneficial  effects.  He  had  better 
follow  beaten  tracks,  if  they  are  a  little  uneven  and  circuitous,  than 
strike  out  at  once  into  a  wilderness  of  supposed  improvements,  which 
have  not  been  sanctioned  by  actual  and  repeated  experiments.  He 
should  exercise  his  own  good  sense  on  every  proposed  alteration,  and 
neither  consider  that  a  mode  or  article  of  culture  must  be  useful  because 
it  is  new,  and  has  been  recommended  by  some  theoretical  cultivators, 
nor  permit  its  novelty  to  be  an  insuperable  objection  to  its  adoption. 
Many  animals  and  plants,  and  also  many  theories,  relating  to  supposed 
agricultural  improvements,  which,  some  years  since,  were  considered  as 
deserving  of  general  introduction,  are  now  deservedly  and  universally 
fallen  into  disuse,  and  those  who  introduced  or  adopted  them  have  suffer- 
ed losses  instead  of  having  realized  anticipated  profits.  Thus  the  theory 
of  Tull,  by  which  frequent  ploughing  was  intended  to  supersede  the 
use  of  manure ;  the  Lombardy  poplar,  supposed  to  be  more  useful  and 
ornamental  than  any  of  the  numerous  species  of  trees,  which  adorn 
our  forests ;  the  plan  of  summer-fallowing,  or  permitting  land  to  lie 
without  crops  of  any  sort  for  a  greater  or  less  period  of  time,  in  order 
to  recruit  its  fertility,  supposed  to  be  exhausted  by  continued  cropping  -, 
the  culture  of  the  Burnet  grass,  Fiorin  grass,  and  son^e  other  articles 
which  have  been  tried  and  found  wanting,  serve  to  prove,  that  in  ^- 
riculture,  as  well  as  in  other  arts  and  sciences,  it  is  possible 

(*  Downwarda  to  soar,  and  baokwardf  to  advance." 
Such  failures,  howeyer,  should  not  cheok  enterprise,  but  inspire  can^Sssix^

With  respect  to  the  "  Oold  Coin  Chartf^*  from  which  the  above  Table  is  taken  (except 
the  column  which  gtvoe  the  *'  Contents  in  pure  Gold  "),  Mr.  Bicknell  itatei  that  it  "  if 
presented  to  the  public  entirely  correct  in  every  particular,  as  the  information  communi- 
cated has  been  derived  from  sources  of  the  most  accurate  and  indisputable  character." 


*  ^ote.  —  The  gold  coins  of  the  countries  to  which  the  star  is  prefixed, 
▼ix.  Brazil,  Colombia,  Great  Britain  or  England,  France,  Mexico,  Por- 
tugal, and  Spain,  if  possessed  of  the  fineness  prescribed,  are  made,  by 
the  act  regulating  certain  foreign  gold  coins  (see  page  152),  to  "  pass 
carrent  as  money,  and  to  be  receivable  in  all  payments,  by  weight,  for 
the  payment  of  all  debts  and  demands,  from  and  after  the  31st  day  of 
July,  1834.**  The  other  coins  in  the  preceding  Table  are  not  made,  by 
the  act  of  Congress,  a  legal  tender ;  but  they  are  sold  at  a  certain  rate 
per  dwt.,  according  to  the  purity  of  the  gold.

INDIVIDUAL  STATES. 


PrXLIMIHART   OBSXRyATIONS. 

In  this  volume  of  the  Almanac,  the  eabjecte  more  particularly  noticed, 
in  the  articlea  relating  to  the  Individual  States,  are  Banks  and  other 
financial  institutions,  and  Periodical  Literature,  including  Newspapers, 
Reviews,  Magazines,  dtc. ;  but  with  respect  to  a  number  of  the  States, 
the  information  which  has  been  obtained,  is  not  so  full  and  satisfactory 
as  could  be  wished.  Some  general  or  tabular  views  relating  to  these 
matters  may  be  seen  at  the  end  of  the  notices  of  the  Individual  States. 

No  other  country  so  much  abounds  in  Newspapers  and  Periodical 
Journals  as  the  United  States  ;  but  most  of  these  publications  are  of  an 
entirely  ephemeral  character ;  most  of  them  are  but  very  feebly  sup- 
ported ;  and  but  few  of  them  possess  any  considerable  literary  merit. 
If  the  number  of  them  were  greatly  diminished,  and  the  character  of 
those  that  were  continued  were  elevated,  and  their  circulation  increas- 
ed, in  proportion,  the  public  would  be  much  benefited  by  the  change. 

A  desire  has  been  felt  to  give  in  this  volume  a  complete  enumera- 
tion of  all  the  Reviews,  Magazines,  &c.,  that  are  or  have  been  pub- 
lished in  the  United  States,  together  with  the  dates  of  their  commence- 
ment, and  of  the  termination  of  such  as  have  been  discontinued.  But  it 
has  not  been  found  practicable  to  obtain,  in  season,  full  and  satisfiictory 
information.  A  good  deal  of  information,  however,  on  these  matters 
will  be  found  ;  and  further  notices  may  probably  be  given  hereafter.

174  MA88ACHU8XTTS.  [1835. 

NEWSPAPERS  AND  JOURNALS. 

In  1038,  a  printing  apparatos  waa  sent  to  Cambridge,  Ma«^  bj  tb« 
Rev.  J.  Glover,  a  dissenting  clergyman  of  England  ;  and  the  first  print- 
ing performed  in  British  America,  was  executed  here  in  1639,  by 
Stephen  Daye.  The  first  thing  printed  was  the  Freeman's  Oath,  in 
1639 ;  the  2d,  an  Almanac,  calculated  for  New  England,  bj  Williia 
i>ierce,  in  1639;  the  3d,  (the  Jir^l  book),  *«  The  Psalms  in  Metre",  or 
«  The  BayPsalm  Book*',  afterwards  called  "  The  New  England  Venbon 
of  the  Psalms,"  in  1640.  Daye  was  succeeded  in  or  about  the  year  1619 
by  Samuel  Green,  who  long  carried  on  the  business  and  printed  nome- 
rous  works,  among  which  was  the  Bible,  translated  into  the  Indian 
language  by  John  Eliot ;  1st  edition  in  1663, 2d  in  1685.  Printing  wu 
carried  on  at  Cambridge,  exclusively,  about  35  years :  in  1675  or  1676, 
a  press  was  established  in  Boston  by  John  Foster.  —  According  lo 
Isaiah  Thomas,  more  printing  was  done  in  Massachusetts  before  1740, 
than  in  all  the  other  English  American  Colonies. —  Mr.  Thomas  says, 
that  he  ascertained  that  there  was  a  press  established  in  the  city  of 
Mexico  before  1569 ;  and  some  say  that  Gazettes  were  printed  there 
before  the  end  of  the  17th  century. 

The  first  Anglo-American  Newspaper  was  published  at  Boston,  en- 
titled "  The  Boston  J^etcsLeUer,''  bearing  the  date  of  the  24lh  of 
April,  1704.  It  was  established  by  John  Campbell,  a  Scotchman,  who 
was  a  bookseller  and  post-master  of  Boston,  and  was  printed  by  Ba^ 
tholomew  Green,  the  son  of  Samuel  Green,  the  printer  at  Cambridfv, 
on  a  half  sheet  of  pot  paper.  This  was  the  only  paper  prin^d  in  the 
English  American  Colonies  for  upwards  of  fifleen  years ;  and  it  con- 
tinued to  be  published  till  1776. 

On  the  21  st  of  December,  1719,  *<  The  Boston  GazeUe  "  made  iU  first 
appearance  ;  and  on  the  day  following,  (Dec.  22d,)  <*  The  Ameriea», 
Weekly  Mercury f'*  the  3d  Anglo-American  newspaper,  was  published 
at  Philadelphia. 

''  The  yew  England  Courant,**  the  third  Boston  newspaper,  was  first 
published  on  the  19th  of  August,  1721.  It  was  continued  only  about 
six  years.  It  was  printed  by  James  Franklin,  a  brother  of  the  cele- 
brated Dr.  Benjamin  Franklin,  and  abounded  with  essays  in  which  meo 
in  office,  the  clergy,  and  the  prevailing  religious  opinions  of  the  daj 
were  t^ttacked.  Benjamin  Franklin  was  at  that  time  an  apprentice  to 
his  brother,  and  the  Courant  became  noted  as  the  vehicle  of  his  juve- 
nile effusions.  The  publisher,  having  involved  himself  in  difficulty 
with  the  government,  was  induced  to  omit  his  name  in  the  imprint, 
and  to  insert  that  of  his  brother  Benjamin,  who  was  then  a  minor. 

In  addition  to  the  above,  there  appeared  in  Boston,  previously  to  the 
American  Revolution,  the  following  newspaperg;  viz.  "  The  New  Eng* 
land  Weekly  Journal,"  1727;  "The  Weekly  Rehear^I/*  1731;  -Tlie

Each  of  the  courts  of  Common  Pleas  comprises  5  judges,  who  havs 
BO  salaries,  but  are  paid  by  entries. 

The  Revenue  of  the  state,  which  is  sufficient  for  the  expenses  of  th« 
government,  is  derived  from  the  following  sources,  viz.,  taxes  on  banks, 
pedlers,  lottery  grants,  sale  of  lottery  tickets,  licenses  to  sell  spirits, 
auctions,  bank  bonuses,  courts,  civil  commissions,  and  dividends  on 
stocks.  —  There  has  been  no  state  tax  since  1825. 

Newspapers. 

The  first  newspaper  published  in  Rhode  Island  was  printed  at  New- 
port, which  was  the  2d  town  in  New  England  from  which  a  newspaper 
was  issued,  and  the  4th  in  which  a  printing-press  was  established.  The 
earliest  newspaper,  entitled  "  The  Rhode  Island  Gazette,'*  made  its 
first  appearance  on  the  27th  of  September,  1732.  and  was  published  by 
James  Franklin,  who  had  before  printed  the  New  England  Coorant,  at 
Boston ;  but  it  was  continued  only  seven  months. 

In  1758,  a  second  newspaper,  entitled  "  The  Newport  Mercury,"  was 
commenced  at  Newport  by  James  Franklin,  son  of  the  printec  ot  the 
Rhode  Island  Gazette.  The  Mercury  is  still  continued,  and  is,  next  to 
'<  The  New  Hampshire  Gazette"  of  Portsmouth,  the  oldest  paper  in  New 
England. 

In  1762,  the  3d  paper  in  Rhode  Island  was  published  at  Providence, 
entitled  <<  The  Providence  Gazette  and  County  Journal." 

The  number  of  papers  published  in  Rhode  Island,  in  1775  was  S

Newspapers. 

Printing  was  first  introduced  into  Delaware,  at  Wilmington,  in  1761, 
by  James  Adams,  who  published  for  the  short  period  of  six  months,  a 
newspaper  entitled  "  The  Wilmington  Courant."  This  was  the  first 
and  only  newspaper  that  was  published  in  Delaware  before  the  revolu- 
tionary war. 

There  were  only  two  newspapers  published  in  the  state,  in  1810, 
both  at  Wilmington ; — in  1834,  the  number  was  4,  viz. 

At  Wilmington,  New  Castle  County,  2  semi- weekly,  and  1  weekly. 

At  Greorgetown,  Sussex  County,  1  weekly. 

Education. 

The  state  has  a  School  Fund  of  about  $  180,000,  the  income  of  which, 
together  with  a  small  tax  levied  on  each  school  district,  at  the  wiU  of 
a  majority  of  the  taxable  inhabitants,  is  appropriated  to  the  support  of 
free  schoob.  The  general  rule  of  division  into  school  districts  through- 
out the  state,  is  to  form  each  district  so  that  the  most  remote  parts  shall 
be  two  miles  or  about  that  distance  from  the  centre.  In  compact  towns 
reference  is  had  to  the  population.  No  district  that  will  not  raise,  by 
taxation,  a  sum  equal  to  its  share  of  the  income  of  the  Fund,  is  entitled 
to  receive  any  portion  of  the  Fund. 

The  act  for  the  creation  of  the  School  Fund  was  passed  in  1796,  and 
the  receipts  from  marriage  and  tavern  licenses  were  appropriated  to  the 
object.  The  Fund  had  continued  accumulating  till  1829,  when  the  act 
for  the  establishment  of  free  schools,  was  passed,  and  the  state  was 
divided  into  school  districts.    The  number  of  districts  that  had  been

the  Colonies  in  1671,  64  yean  after  the  settlement  of  Vir^nia,  says, 
**  I  thank  God  we  have  no  free  schools  nor  printing,  and  I  hope  we 
•hall  not  haye  these  hundred  years.  For  learning  has  brought  disobe- 
dience and  heresy  and  sects  into  the  world ;  and  printing  has  divulged 
them,  and  libels  against  Uie  government'* 

Printing  was  introduced  into  Virginia  at  Williamsburg,  by  William 
Parks,  who  printed,  at  that  place,  Stith's  History  of  Virginia  and  the 
the  Laws  of  Virginia,  in  1729 ;  and  as  early  as  173G,  he  commenced  the 
first  newspaper  in  the  colony,  entitled  **  The  Virginia  Gazette." 
Parks  continued  this  paper  till  his  death  in  1750  ;  soon  afler  which  it 
was  discontinued ;  but  in  1751,  it  was  renewed  with  the  same  title. 
In  1766^  a  second  newspaper,  with  the  same  title,  was  begun  ;  and  at 
the  commencement  of  the  war  in  1775,  there  were  two  newspapers, 
both  published  at  Williamsburg,  and  both  bearing  the  title  of*  The  Vir- 
ginia Gazette,"  and  no  other  paper  was  published  in  the  colony  till 
afler  this  period. 

The  number  of  newspapers  in  this  state  in  1810,  was  23,  1  three 
times  a  week,  5  semi-weekly,  and  17  weekly ;  the  number,  in  1628, 
was  34  ',  —  the  number  has  since  increased. 

There  are  now  published  at  Richmond,  2  daily  newspapers,  3  semi- 
weekly,  and  1  weekly ;  at  Norfolk,  2  daily  ;  at  Fredericksburg,  2  semi- 
weekly. 

Periodical  Journals. 

At  Lynchburg,  about  1810,  was  published  a  periodical  journal  enti- 
tled *•  The  Lynchburg  Evangelical  Magazine." 

A  literary  journal  was  published,  a  few  years  since,  during  a  short 
period,  at  the  University  of  Virginia. 

An  agricultural  monthly  publication  was  commenced  in  1833,  by 
Edmund  RufRn,  at  Shcllbanks,  Prince  George  County ;  8vo.  64  pages  ; 
and  it  is  said  to  be  well  supported. 

The  first  number  of  *^  The  Southern  Literary  Messenger,"  32  pages 
royal  8vo.,  made  its  appearance  in  August,  1834,  by  Thomas  W.  White; 
proposed  to  be  issued  once  in  two  weeks.

Thii  doeament  has  heretofore  attracted  but  little  notioe,  and  it  id 
not  till  1819,  become  known  to  John  Adama,  who,  in  m  letter  to  Tboai

Loubiana  was  originally  settled  by  the  French ;  in  17G2,  it  was  cM 
by  France  to  Spain ;  near  the  end  of  the  18th  century,  it  was  restored 
to  France;  in  1803,  it  was  purchased  by  the  United  States;  inldH 
the  country  now  forming  the  state  of  Louisiana  was  formed  into  a  terri- 
torial government  under  the  name  of  the  Territory  of  Orleans ;  and  ia 
1813,  it  was  admitted  into  the  Union  as  a  state. 

Mr.  Thomas,  in  his  *^  History  of  Printing,"  remarks,  that  serenl 
printing-houses  were  opened  at  New  Orleans  and  several  newspspeii 
were  immediately  published  there,  after  the  country  came  under  the 
government  of  the  United  States.  It  is  stated  by  a  citizen  of  New  Ot- 
leans,  "  that  the  '  Moniteur,'  edited  by  Mr.  Fontaine,  was  the  fint 
newspaper  published  at  New  Orleans,  and  that  it  was  cosunenced 
under  the  Spanish  government,  —  that  the  '  Louisiana  Courier,*  a  daily 
paper,  which  was  established  in  18 OG,  is  now  the  oldest  f»aper.'* 

The  number  of  newspapers,  according  to  Mr.  Thomas,  in  the  Terri- 
tory of  Orleans  in  1810,  was  10  (2  of  them  daily)  ;  all  in  the  city  of  New 
Orleans.  The  number  in  Louisiana  in  1828,  as  stated  in  "  The  Travel- 
ler," was  only  9.  New  Orleans  is  the  great  centre  of  business  and  of 
publishing  in  the  state,  where  there  are  now  5  or  6  daily  papers  besides 
others  :  newspapers  are  also  now  published  at  Donaldsonrille,  AJezm- 
dria,  Baton  Rouge,  Attakapas,  and  other  places.

Public  Lands.  —  The  estimated  value  of  the  public  lands  to  which 
the  Indian  title  is  not  extinguished,  is  $  500,000. 

Meal  Froperty, 

The  estimated  value  of  real  property  within  the  limits  of  th*  stste  m 
f  150,000,000. 

The  population  in  1820  was  422,813,  making  an  increase  ef  61  per 
cent,  in  ten  years. 

The  estimated  value  of  the  exports,  it  is  believed,  falls  short  of  the 
actual  value.  Unless  all  the  estimates  of  the  secretary  for  several 
years  past,  based  upon  information  collected  from  the  different  sections 
of  the  state,  be  very  erroneous,  the  annual  value  of  the  cotton  may  be 
set  down  as  at  least  $  5,000,000. 

The  estimate  of  corn  and  live  stock  may  be  considered  large,  but  it 
does  not  exceed  the  true  value.  Some  of  the  most  extensive  mer- 
chants in  different  parts  of  the  state,  have  been  at  the  trouble  of  making 
an  estimate,  and  in  one  county,  which  may  be  considered  an  average  of 
twenty,  it  amounts  to  $  10,000. 

In  regard  to  the  public  debt,  that  is,  $  500,000  of  the  stock  in  the 
Union  bank,  it  may  be  remarked  that  it  is  the  first  and  onhf  dftVXvvvt

With  respect  to  those  Gov«rnors  who  have  been  elected  more  than 
oitfc,  Che  commencement  of  the  term  for  which  they  were  last  elected, 
is  here  given. 

In  all  the  states  except  New  Jersey,  Maryland,  Virginia,  North  Caro- 
lina, and  South  Carolina,  tlie  Governor  is  voted  for  by  the  people ;  and, 
if  no  one  has  a  majority  of  all  the  votes,  in  the  states  in  which  such  a 
majority  is  required,  the  legislature  elects  to  the  office  of  Governor  one 
of  the  candid?«tes  voted  for  by  the  people.  In  the  state  of  Louisiana, 
the  people  give  their  votes,  and  the  legislature  elects  one  of  the  two 
candidates  who  have  the  greatest  number  of  votes. 

The  Governors  of  the  Territories  are  appointed  by  the  President  of 
the  United  States^  with  the  consent  of  the  Senate,  for  the  term  of 
three  years.

5.  PERIODICAL  JOURNALS  PUBU8HCD  IN  18M. 

*      Bbfork  the  American  Re? olution,  some  attempts  were  made  in  sev* 
-exml  places,  particnlarlj  in  Boston,  New  York,  and  Philadelphia,  to 
establish  other  periodical  journals  besides  newspapers  ;  bat  no  one  of 
I  them  obtained  a  liberal  support,  or  had  a  long  duration ;  but  nnce  the 
Reyolution,  and  more  especially  since  the  commencement  of  the  pres- 
ent century,  there  has  been  a  great  increase  of  this  species  of  literature. 
The  journals  enumerated  by  Mr.  Thomas,  as  published  in  the  Unit^ 
States,  in  1810,  amount,  in  number,  to  26 ;  the  number  of  those  now 
poblished,  may  be  computed  at  140.    The  greater  part  of  them  are,  it 
must  be  confessed,  conducted  with  but  little  ability,  and  are  but  feebly 
supported.    Tet  it  is  doubtless  true,  that  those  which  are  now  publish- 
ed, are,  on  an  average,  more  ably  conducted  and  more  liberally  sup- 
ported, than  were  those  enumerated  by  Mr.  Thomas  in  1810. 

The  following  Tables  contain  the  most  of  the  Medical,  Law,  Lite- 
rary, and  Miscellaneous  Journals  published  in  the  United  States  in 
1834,  together  with  tlie  date  of  their  commencement,  the  frequency  of 
publication,  number  of  pages,  price  by  the  year,  and  the  names  of  the 
editors ;  but  the  lists  are  not  complete.

The  first  religious  newspaper  published  in  the  United  Statee,  ''  The 
Boston  Recorder"  was  commenced  in  1816;  and  the  first  Baptist 
newspaper,  **  The  Christian  Watchman,"  (Boston,)  in  1819.  Now  all 
the  considerable  religioni  denominations  have  their  respective  newspe- 
pers  and  journals.  The  total  number  contained  in  the  teverml  lists 
which  follow,  is  88 ;  they  are,  most  of  them,  weekly  papen.  Theie 
are  doubtless  i  few  others  which  are  not  enumetated.

The  columo  for  the  year  182S  includes  not  only  A'ewspapcrs  but  other 
Periodical  Publications.  The  numbers  in  this  column  are  the  same 
(except  the  omission  of  the  one  in  the  Cherokee  Nation)  as  are  found 
in  the  American  Almanac  for  1830  (page  ii2i))y  but  the  total  amount  is 
different,  beinor  there  erroneously  stated  at  802.  In  *'  The  Register  of 
Pennsylvania,  for  1828,  page  4(>0,  the  number  of  newspapers,  &c.,  in 
a  corresponding  table,  assigned  to  Rhode  Island  is  11,  to  ConnecUcvt 
26,  to  Maryland  32,  to  North  Carolina  15,  and  to  Georgia  13;  —  being  \n. 
all  25  less ;  and  the  total  sum  there  given  is  827. 

The  number  of  newspapers  in  the  column  for  the  year  1834,  in  the 
above  Table,  assigned  to  PennsylvaniOy  Virginia^  Ohio,  Indiana,  and 
Illinois,  is  given  chiefly  by  estimate,  the  eiact  number  not  having  beea 
ascertained.    The  estimate  is  probably  below  the  real  numbers. 

The  number  of  other  Periodical  Journals,  besides  newspapers,  pub- 
lished in  the  United  States,  is  probably  somewhat  greater  tnan  is  given 
in  the  above  Table.  The  numbers  assigned  to  New  York  and  Pennsyl* 
yania  are  partly  by  estimate.  This  enumeration  includes  only  such 
journals  as  are  published  at  as  short  intervals  as  once  in  three  months. 
Such  Religious,  Temperance,  and  Jlgricultural  Journals,  as  are  published 
in  the  form  of  newspapers,  are  classed  among  newspapers. 

Many  of  the  publications  comprised  in  the  above  Table  are  so 
ephemeral  in  their  character,  that  it  is  impossible  to  giwe  an  entirely 
correct  enumeration  for  any  assignable  time,  as  many  are  starting  into 
existence  every  year,  and  others  are  disappearing.

BANKS. 


XIII.    BANKS. 

In  a  former  part  of  this  volame  (see  page  107)  may  be  found  a  short 
article  on  Foreign  Banks  and  Currency  ;  and  the  articles  relating  to  the 
Individual  States  contain  lists  of  the  Banks  now  existing  in  the  several 
■tates,  together  with  their  capital  and  condition,  according  to  the  latest 
information.  A  series  of  tables  here  follow,  which  illustrate  the  prog-  - 
reM  and  present  state  of  banking  institutions  in  this  country. 

The  first  bank  on  this  continent,  tne  Bank  of  North  America,  owed  its 
origin  to  Robert  Morris,  the  chief  financier  of  the  American  Revolution. 
It  was  established  at  Philadelphia  by  Congress  in  1781 ;  and  the  legis- 
latures of  Massachusetts  and  Pennsylvania  corroborated  the  ordinances 
of  the  general  government  by  additional  charters.  According  to  the 
plan  of  Mr.  Morris,  the  capital  was  to  consist  of  0400,000,  in  shares  of 
$  400  each  ;  but  the  capital  was  afterwards  raised  to  $2,000,000.  This 
bank  had  an  immediate  and  highly  advantageous  influence  on  the  pub- 
lic finances  and  the  commercial  interests  of  the  country ;  and  since  the 
establishment  of  this  institution,  banks  have  been  multiplied  in  the 
United  States  in  a  manner  before  unexampled. 

1.    Tables  rklating  to  Banks. 

1.  —  The  first  five  following  tables  are  extracted  from  a  publication 
entitled  "  Considerations  on  the  Currency  and  Banking  System  of  the 
United  States,"  by  Albert  Gallatin,  formerly  Secretary  of  the  Treasury.

5.    THE  OLD  BANK  OF  THE  UNITED  STATC8.— 179L  ! 

The  idea  of  this  institation  was  conceiTed  immediately  after  the  wkf- 
turn  of  the  Constitution,  by  Alexander  Hamilton,  the  fbander  of  tks  j 
American  system  of  finance,  when  Secretary  of  the  IVeasviy  ;  the  pha  i 
of  it  was  submitted  to  Congpress  Dec.  13, 1790 ;  and  it  was  incorponted 
bj  act  of  Congress,  and  approved  Feb.  1791,  in  the  first  term  of  Wab- 
ington*s  administration.  Its  continuance  was  limited  by  the  charter  to 
the  4th  of  March,  1811,  at  which  time  it  expired,  as  Congress  refused  to 
renew^the  charter. 

The  capital  was  limited  to  $  10,000,000,  divided  into  25,000  shans,  of 
$  400  each,  payable  one  fourth  in  n^old  and  silver,  and  three  fourtbt  ii 
public  securities  bearing  an  Jnterest  of  six  and  three  per  cent.  The  or- 
poration  were  restricted  from  contracting  debts  beyond  the  amount  of 
their  capital,  and  from  holding  property,  exceedingr  the  value  d 
^15,000,000,  or  real  estate  more  than  necessary  for  the  convenient  trans- 
acting of  their  business.  The  affiurs  of  the  bank  were  to  be  maaaged 
by  24  directors,  to  be  elected  by  the  stockholders,  without  any  inlcrftf- 
•  ence  on  the  part  of  the  government  in  the  election ;  hot  the  gevcfn- 
ment  reserved  the  right  of  inspecting  the  afiairs  of  the  bank  ;  sod  fer 
thb  purpose  the  secretary  of  the  treasury  was  authorised  to  demand  of 
the  president  and  directors  a  statement  of  its  concerns  as  often  as  ke 
might  see  fit. 

The  subscriptions  were  filled  as  soon  as  opened.  The  govemmeot, 
conformably  to  the  right  reserved  in  the  charter,  subscribed  for  5,000 
shares,  equal  to  $  2,000,000 ;  and  the  bank  went  into  immediate  open- 
tion.  Its  stock,  a  great  proportion  of  which  was  held  in  Europe,  sooa 
rose  considerably  above  par ;  and  the  institution  proved  always  conre- 
nient,  on  some  occasions  eminently  useful  to  the  government,  and  not 
less  beneficial  to  the  public  at  large.  —  The  dividends  were  made  semi- 
annually ;  and,  during  the  20  years*  continuance  of  the  charier,  the 
average  annual  dividend  amounted  to  8|  per  cent. 

This  bank  was  not  merely  or  principally  a  commercial  establishment, 
but  was  essentially  and  mainly  of  a  financial  and  political  character; 
and  it  was  on  this  ground  that  its  constitutionality  was  defended ;  the 
right  of  Congress  to  grant  such  a  charter  being  maintained  chiefly  upoa 
the  strength  of  that  clause  of  the  constitution  which  gives  to  It  the 
power  necessary  for  carrying  into  execution  the  powers  enumerated, 
and  expressly  vested  in  that  body.  At  the  time  of  its  establishment,  it 
was  opposed,  on  the  ground  of  its  presumed  unconstitutionality,  by  the 
politicalpsrty ,  then  in  the  minority,  of  which  Mr.  Jeflerson  was  regarded 
as  the  leader;  and  before  the  termination  of  the  charter,  this  par^ 
having  come  into  power,  the  renewal  of  the  charter  was  refused,  and 
the  institution  was  dissolved.

1835.]  BAKKM.  395 

During  the  war  which  was  begun  in  1812,  the  want*  of  a  national 
bank  was  severelj  felt,  not  only  as  an  agent  for  collecting  the  revenue, 
but  more  especially  for  transmitting  funds  from  one  part  of  the  country 
to  another ;  and  it  might  aleo  have  been  a  useful  auxiliary  to  the  public 
credit)  by  supplying  temporary  loans  in  cases  of  emergency.  So 
thoroughly  convinced  were  the  public  of  the  necessity  of  such  an  in- 
stitution, that  the  members  of  the  same  political  party  from  which  the 
constitutional  objections  had  been  made  to  the  old  bank,  and  which  had 
refused  to  renew  its  charter,  passed  an  act  of  Congress,  which  was 
approved  by  the  president  (Madison)  on  the  10th  of  April,  1816,  char- 
tering the  present  Bank  of  the  United  States,  upon  principles,  and  with 
provisions,  very  similar  to  those  contained  in  the  former  charter. 


According  to  Mr.  Gallatin,  ''  The  principal  advantages  derived  from 
a  Bank  of  the  United  States,  (eiclusive  of  the  aid  that  may  be  expected 
from  it  in  time  of  war.)  which  no  state  bank,  and,  as  it  appears  to  us,  no 
bank  established  on  different  principles,  could  afford,  aie;  1st  and 
principally  ;  securing  with  certainty  a  uniform  and,  as  far  as  paper  can, 
a  sound  currency ;  2dly,  the  complete  security  and  great  facility  it  af> 
fords  to  government  in  its  fiscal  operations ;  3dly,  the  great  convenience 
and  benefit  accruing  to  the  community  from  its  extensive  transactions 
in  domestic  bills  of  exchange  and  inland  drafls." 


.    Constitutumality  of  a  United  States  or  Jfational  Bank, 

The  following  extract  from  Mr.  Justice  Story's  *'  Commentaries  on 
the  Constitution  of  the  United  States,"  gives  a  brief  summary  of  the 
principal  arguments  for  and  against  the  constitutiouality  of  a  United 
States  or  National  Bank. 

''  One  of  the  earliest  and  most  important  measures,  which  gave  rise 
to  a  question  of  constitutional  power,  was  the  act  chartering  the  Bank 
of  the  United  States  in  1791.  That  question  has  often  since  been  dis- 
cussed ;  and  though  the  measure  has  been  repeatedly  sanctioned  by 
Congress,  by  the  executive,  and  by  the  judiciary,  and  has  obtained  the 
like  favor  in  the  great  majority  of  the  states,  yet  it  is,  up  to  this  very 
hour,  still  debated  upon  constitutional  grounds,  as  if  it  were  still  new 
and  untried.  It  is  impossible,  at  this  time,  to  treat  it  as  an  open  ques- 
tion, unless  the  constitution  is  for  ever  to  remain  an  unsettled  text, 
possessing  no  permanent  attributes,  and  incapable  of  having  any  ascer- 
tained sense';  varying  with  every  change  of  doctrine,  and  of  party; 
and  delivered  over  to  inlerininable  doubts. 

"  The  reasoning,  upon  which  the  constitutionality  of  a  national  bank 
is  denied,  turns  upon  the  strict  interpretation  of  the  clause^  %,Wv&%

mA  More,  a  deserredly  celebrated  lady,  who  wu  bom  at  8ta|fleiiNI,  W 
Glouceetenhire  in  1744.  She  wag  one  of  the  five  danghtera' of  a  irll^

iuppUed  bj  their  own  talente  and  penoTeranee.  The  Utatary  abilities 
of  Hannah  early  attracted  notice,  and  a  aabeeription  wu  formed  M 
eatabliihing  her  and  her  ristere  in  a  echool  of  their  own.  > 

Her  fint  literary  production,  "  The  Search  after  Happineai,  a  peeto* 
.  ral  drama,"  was  written  when  she  waa  only  18  yean  of  age,  though 
not  publiihed  till  1773.  By  the  eneooragement  of  Mr.  Gatriek,  ahi 
tried  her  strength  In  tragic  composition,  and  wrote  **  The  Infleslbli 
Captive,  a  Tragedy,"  which  was  printed  in  1764.  '  Her  tragedy  of 
**  Percy,"  the  most  popular  of  her  dramatic  eompooitions,  waa  brong^  ' 
ont  in  1778,  and  ran  fborteen  nights  successiTely ;  and  her  last  tragedfi 
<'  The  Fatal  Falsehood,"  was  produced  in  1779.  Shortly  after,  heir 
opinions  on  public  theatres  underwent  a  change,  and,  as  she  has  staled 
in  the  preface  to  the  third  Tolume  of  her  wovka,  '<  riie  did  not  consider 
the  stage,  in  its  present  state,  as  becoming  the  appearance  or  oomite*

■oquaintanee  of  Johnson  and  Borlie,  <^  Reynolda  and  Garriek,  and  ef 
miny  other  highly  eminent  indiTidnals,  who  equally  appreciated  htf 
amlairile  qualities,  and  her  superior  inteNeet.  But,  under  a  deep  eoo^ 
tietion,  that  to  live  to  the  glory  of  God,  and  to  the  good  of  our  fbllnw 
oieatures,  is  the  great  object  of  human  eiistence,  and  the  only  out 
which  can  bring  peace  at  the  last,  she  quitted  in  the  prime  of  her 
dsfs,  the  bright  circles  of  fashion  and  literature,  and,  ratirittg  Into  Utt

Bath,  in  monthly  numheni,  "  The  Cheap  Repository/*  a  series  of  idni- 
rable  tales  for  the  common  people,  one  of  which  is  the  weU-kaowi 
«  Shepherd  of  Salisbury  Plain."  The  success  of  this  seasonable  publi- 
cation was  extraordinary  ',  and  within  a  year  the  sale  reached  the  nnsh 
her  of  ]  ,000,000  copies.  Her  "  Strictures  on  the  Modem  System  of 
Female  Education*'  appeared  in  1799;  ''Hints  towards  Fonniof  tk 
Character  of  a  Young  Princess,"  in  1805 ;  "  CcBlebs  in  Search  of  a  Wife,' 
in  1809,  (which  passed  through  at  least  six  editions  in  less  than  a  year ;)

Near  the  beginning  of  the  present  century,  Mrs.  More  left  Bath  and 
retired  to  Barley  Wood,  a  cottage  delightfully  situated  in  the  village  of 
Wrington,  the  native  place  of  John  Locke.  In  1819,  she  lost  her  lot 
surviving  sister  Martha,  and  under  this  bereavement,  and  being  now 
confined  to  her  room,  she  quitted  Barley  Wood,  for  Cliflon,  where,  and 
at  Bristol,  she  had  some  valuable  friends,  though  not  a  single  relation 
of  whom  she  had  any  knowledge  in  the  world.  —  She  is  said  to  have 
realized  upwards  of  £30,000  by  her  writings ;  and  her  charitable  be- 
quests exceeded  £10,000. 

Sept  14.  —  At  the  seat  of  his  daughter  the  Marchioness  of  Headfort, 
in  the  county  of  Meath,  Ireland,  aged  73,  Sir  John  Andrew  SUtenmm, 
Doctor  of  Music,  a  choral  vicar  of  Dublin  Cathedral,  and  a  distinguished 
composer. 

Sept.  15.  —  In  London,  aged  41,  John  Gordon  Smiik,  M.  D.,  F.  R.  S., 
an  unfortunate  inmate  of  the  Fleet  Prison.  He  was  a  man  of  eminence 
in  his  profession,  author  of  a  celebrated  work  on  Medical  Jurisprudence, 
which  has  gone  through  several  editions;  and  in  1828,  when  the  London 
University  was  opened,  he  was  instituted  as  the  first  English  professor  in 
that  branch  of  medical  science.  He  was  a  man  of  eccentric  character, 
and  somewhat  irregular  habits,  became  involved  in  pecuniary  difficnl- 
ties,  and  terminated  his  short  and  useful  life  within  the  walls  of  a 
prison. 

Sept.  27.  —  At  Stapleton  Park,  the  residence  of  Dr.  Lant  Carpenter, 
near  Bristol,  the  Rajah  Rammohun  Roy,  This  learned  Bramin,  who 
has  for  several  years  attracted  much  attention,  was  the  son  of  Ram 
Hant  Roy,  and  was  born  in  the  province  of  Burdwan,  in  Bengal,  his 
paternal  ancestors  being  Bramins  of  a  high  order.  He  studied  several 
years  at  the  celebrated  seminary  of  Benareq,  and  travelled  in  Persia 
and  other  oriental  countries.  His  literary  attainments  were  eztensivs.

Hebrew,  Greek,  Latin,  and  French.  The  two  first  he  knew  critically, 
aa  a  acholar ;  the  3d,  4th,  5th,  and  6th,  he  spoke,  and  wrote  fluently ; 
in  the  eighth  perhaps  his  studies  did  not  extend  much  beyond  the 
originals  of  the  Christian  Scriptures ;  and  in  the  latter  two  his  knowl- 
edge  was  apparently  limited.  He  has  published  works  in  Sanscrit, 
Arabic,  Persian,  Bengalee,  and  English." 

'*  When  about  16,*'  according  to  his  own  statement,  he  «  composed  a 
manuscript  calling  in  question  the  idolatrous  system  of  the  Hindoos." 
This,  together  with  his  known  sentiments,  produced  a  coolness  between 
him  and  his  relatives.  Afler  the  death  of  his  father  in  1804  or  5,  and 
of  his  two  brothers,  he  became  possessed  of  considerable  property,  and 
from  this  period  he  appears  to  have  commenced  his  plans  for  reforming 
the  religion  of  his  countrymen;  and  he  published  a  work  entitled 
"  Against  the  Idolatry  of  all  Religions."  On  directing  his  attention  to 
the  Christian  Religion,  he  became  strongly  impressed  with  the  excel- 
lence of  the  Christian  system  of  morality,  and  published  in  1820,  in 
English,  Sanscrit,  and  Bengalee,  a  series  of  selections,  principally  from 
the  first  three  Gospels,  entitled  "  The  Precepts  of  Jesus,  the  Guide  to 
Peace  and  Happiness."  He  passed  by  those  portions  of  the  Evangelists 
which  have  been  made  the  basis  of  distinctive  doctrines;  and  also 
(except  where  closely  interwoven  with  the  discourses  of  Christ),  the 
narratives  of  miracles,  believing  these  not  fitted  to  efiect  the  conviction 
of  his  countrymen.  This  brought  upon  him  some  severe  animadver- 
sions in  the  '<  Friend  of  India."  Under  the  designation  of  '*  A  Friend  to 
Truth,"  Rammohun  Roy  published  an  appeal  to  the  Christian  public  in 
defence  of  the  **  Precepts  of  Jesus ; "  in  which  he  declares,  "  that  the 
compiler  believed,  not  only  in  one  God,  whose  nature  and  essence  are 
beyond  human  comprehension,  but  in  the  truths  revealed  in  the  Chris- 
tian system." 

The  principal  object  of  Rammohun  Roy*s  visit  to  England  was  of  a 
political  nature.  He  was  charged  with  a  commission  from  the  King  of 
Delhi  to  enforce  a  claim  against  the  East  India  Company  to  the  extent 
of  jCoOOjOOO  sterling.  A  few  weeks  before  his  death  the  matter  was 
brought  to  a  compromise ;  —  the  King  of  Delhi  is  to  have  added  to  his 
income,  the  sum  of  £30,000  a  year ;  and  as  a  reward  of  his  services, 
Rammohun  Roy  was  to  receive  an  annual  sum  of  from  £3,000  to 
j&l,000  sterling,  to  be  continued  to  his  heirs  for  ever. 

Rammohun  Roy  was  about  6  feet  high,  and  large  in  proportion,  but 
his  person  though  not  wanting  in  apparent  symmetry,  was  unwieldy 
and  without  activity.  His  features  were  large,  manly,  and  fine ;  his 
countenance  very  dark,  with  a  sallow  tinge  of  ill  health;  but  his  eye  was 
full  of  Asiatic  fire.  —  In  politics  he  was  a  zealous  republican ;  expressed 
warmly  his  hearty  approbation  of  all  liberal  institutions;  associated 
chiefly  with  the  liberal  portion  of  the  community ;  and  took  a  very  deep 
interest  in  the  progress  of  the  measure  of  English  parliamentary  re«

In  the  preparation  of  this  Dictionary,  pronunciation  has  been  made  a 
leading  object,  and  has  received  particular  attention ;  and  as  a  Pro- 
nouncing  Dictionary,  it  will  be  found  to  possess  peculiar  advantages. 
A  prominent  feature  in  the  plan  consists  in  the  exhibition  of  authorities 
respecting  words  of  various^  doubtfulf  or  disputed  pronunciation ;  and 
this  volume  is  so  constructed  as  to  exhibit,  witli  respect  (o  all  this  class 
of  words,  for  which  a  Pronouncing  Dictionary  is  chiefly  wanted,  the 
modes  in  which  they  are  pronounced  by  all  the  most  eininent  English 
orthoepists. 

Recohheitdations. 

This  Dictionary  exhibits,  in  its  different  parts,  ample  evidence  of 
inquiry,  careful  comparison,  and  sound  judgment.  It  combines,  in  a 
very  condensed  and  yet  intelligible  form,  a  greater  quantity  of  valuable 
matter  than  any  other  similar  work  ;  and  as  a  Pronouncing  Dictionary, 
it  possesses  decided  advantages  over  all  others,  by  its  superior  system 
of  notation,  and  by  its  exhibition  of  all  the  principal  authorities  respect- 
ing words  of  doubtful  or  various  pronunciation.  We  do  not  hesitate  to 
pronounce  it,  in  our  judgment,  the  most  comprehensive,  accurate,  and 
useful  compendium  within  our  knowledge.

manner,  supply  the  place  of  the  Atlas.
