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
ofBevora], as determined by the editor, by recent observations made hy
A/tnseJf; aho the longitude of a few, deduced by VumiimTV ob«%T^atXoQfl

PRKI«IMI1IAKT OBSERVATIONS. XL
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-
mens,'* and worthy of the great nation under whose auspices it appears.
In ours, wiU be found, the Sun's Semidiameter, Horizontal Parallax,
and Declination, the time (meatij which, by the addition of 0.1S[", will be
converted into sidereal) occupied by the Semidiameter in culminating or

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.

[1894.
At thote of the aboye cities marked with an asteriak the end of the
eclipse will not be visible, as it will take place after the rising of the
Son and consequently afler the setting of the Moon.
Althoogh on this occasion the Moon will be totally immersed in the
shadow of the Earth for the space of Ih. 26m., it is probable she will not
entirely disappear, but will remain visible of the color of dusky
copper.
ly. Sunday, Norember 30th.

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.

within a few months, and may be relied on within a few seconds.
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
appeared which analogy has led astronomers to include under that
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-
pendicular to it. That of 1680 was DO^' of the heavens in length, so
that part of it might have been in the observer's zenith when the comet
was setting. It was 141 millions of miles in length. Some comets
have had what we may call a succession of tails, one succeding another,

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."

* A«t«. — As neilHer of the timei oroiiMrration was in the coUeit part of the day, the
nmgt of tho thermometer is elated in the preeedinf Table less than itihould be, and the
BHan tempciatore too high. Dr. llaJe luppuses that a due correction would reduce tho

The hottest month in this period was July 1825, 77,74; the coldest,
January 1792, 19.17.
The greatest heat in the period 101, on June 23, 1816; and also on
July 21, 1825; the former in the coldest summer of the period, and the
latter in the warmest.
The greatest cold in the period—- 13, Jan. 25, 1821. The other coldest
days were Jan. 17, 1786 ; Jan. 23, 1792; Feb. 14, 1817; and Jan. 13,
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.

^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
officers have the general superintendence of colonization affairs in their
respective districts, are invested with the power to appoint sub-agents
for the States individually, are expected to visit ecclesiastical bodies,
legislatures, and chief towns, to correspond extensively, and in general
to advance the objects of the Society.
In the year 1819, the Rev. S. J. Mills and Rev. E. Burgess visited Af-
rica under a commission from the Society on an exploring expedition. In
* The wholo torn expended bjr the Coeiety, during the lizioon years of iu oxiateoce, is
abovt $160,000.

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 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.

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

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
present in operation.

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

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
are held every Saturday upon the lectures of the preceding week. The
whole course is completed in 14 months, including two vacations of 4

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.

and make a report of their condition and management to the legisla-
ture ; and are also charged with the care of distributing the annual
income of the Literary Fund in equal proportions in the eight senate
districts, for the benefit of common schools, and among the incor-
porated academies in proportion to the number of students pursuing
classical studies.

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

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

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.

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

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.

An Inferior Court is held in each county, composed of five justices,
elected by the people every four years. These Courts possess the
powers of Courts of Probate. The justices have no salary.
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
notices of education in Georgia, see the American Almanac for 1832.

Frakklin College, Univkrsity of Georgia.
This institution, which in at Athens, 92 miles NW. of Augusta, was
founded by an act of the legislature in 17&8-0, and was at the same
time endowed with 30,000 acres of unappropriated land, which was to
be leased, but not sold. According to the plan of the charter, the uni-
Tsrsitjr was to embrace the whole system of public education in the
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.

of thie students; the faculty and most of the professors and tutors hav-
ing generally labored gratuitously." — " Catholic pupils are required to
practise the religion they profess ; but students of other denominations
are received upon the sole condition of submitting to the general laws
of the institution and (as far as pertains to religion) of attending morn-
ing and evening prayer daily, and catechism and divine service on Sun-

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.

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.

* 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.
II The Upper House, which forms an independent branch of the Legis-
lature of New Jersey, is styled the " Legislative Council.'*
§ 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
last preMideniinl election.

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

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
Crabbe, LL. B., a distinguished poet He was born at Aldborough, in

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

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.

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

great apphuse. " Marmion " followed in 1808; "The Lady of the
Lake " in 1810 ; " The Vision of Don Roderick " in 1811 ; " Rokeby "

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,

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.

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
occasions, strongly developed. One of his most striking characteristics
was, perhaps, his economy, — which he rigidly practised, and, both in
public and private affairs, diligently inculcated. His inheritance was
inconsiderable, and heavily incumbered with a British debt ; but, by a
long course of economy, he relieved his estate, and acquired wealth.
Under the shade of his patrimonial oaks, where he often indicated his
wish to be buried, let the orator of Roanoke rest in peace."

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.

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

be ftnnd to contain moch information on thia snbject ; and in the
ne«l^ we hope to give fhrther notices in relation to those statea,
wUafc have least justice done them in this.

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.

By drawing curved lines on a map, through the places having th«
above Latitudes and Longitudes, we shall obtain the Northern and
Southern limits of the Eclipse, and the line or path of the Centre. Th*
Eclipse will be visible throughout South America, Africa, and the
ocean between. It will also be visible (but the obscuration will btt
verj small) to nearly all Spain, the southern part of Italy, Asia Minor,
and Arabia. In the north part of America and Europe, and in nearly
the whole of Asia there will not be any Eclipse.
IL Wednesday, June 10th, a small Eclipse of the Moon, invisible
throughout the United States and the continent of America.

The Transit will end at a point in the right side of the Son, 141^ Sd'

The phases of the Transit at the following places were not strictlj
calculated, but were estimated from the preceding ; no error of impor-
tance, however, can thus have been made, since so trifling is the Taria-
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

The publication of newspapers is adduced by Mr. Babbage as «
ramailukble instance of the application of machinery. ** In the puhUoa-
iloii of our daily newspapers,*' he says, " it frequently happens that the
debates in the House of Parliament are carried on to three or fiwir
o^elbek hi the morning, that is, to within a few hours ef the time of
the publication of the newspaper. The speeches must be taken down

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
t advantageous to their employers, and most reputable to them-

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.

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

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

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."

iaf-press near Philadelphia, and printed a sheet almanac for 1687, which
waa the earliest specimen of printing in the colony.
The first newspaper pnUiahed at Pliiladelphia, entitled « The Ameri-
ean Weelily Mercury," waa printed by Andrew Bradford, on a half
aheet of pot paper, bearing the date of Dee: 22, 1719. No ether new**

eefl at Beaton.

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

* ** That whosoever directly or indirectly abets, or in any way, fom,

the political bands, which have connected us with the mother coontry,
and hereby absolve ourselves from all allegiance to the British Cxowa;

^ A charter for a rail-road from Auguita to Athene haa been granted,
uid the stock lo far taken up aa to inanra its conatmetaon. Whan it la
eompleted there will be an unbroken rail-road from Charlaatoni 8. C,
to Athena, Georgia, 240 mUea. Tha company ara authoriaad, and ezpaet,
to continue the rail-road to the line of Alabama, there to meet a tail-
toad which is now constructing from Memphis, on the Mississip|n, to
the Muscle Shoals of the Tennessee. When the whole design shall ba
aiaauted, a complete rail-road communication will be opened firom
Memphis to Charleston. Another rail-road is chartered firmn Sayaa-
aah to Macon ; and a third from Macon to Forsyth in tha ooanty of
Monxoe.
The corporation of Savannah hare employed an engineer to make a
•nnray of the country between SaTannah, Louisrilla, MilledgeTillay
Macon, and Columbus, with reference to the comparative advantagea of
a rail-road and a canal. — The Steamboat Company, under a law passed
at the last session of the legislature, have had a survey of a canal com-
platad, from Haiahman'a Lake, at the head of deep water, to Augoata.

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.

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.

8. RELIGIOUS NEWSPAPERS.
The first religious newspaper published in the United Statee, '' The

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.

394 UniTKD STATES. [1835. I
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&%

' Sept 7.— At Windfor-terrace, Clifton, in her 86th 7ear,JK^;JM^
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^
la|^ echoolmaater, whoae meana were not anffioient to giro hie difl* ^
dren many of the adrantages of edooation ; bnt thii deficiency wa»
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*
nance of a Christian." — *< Early in life ahe attlaeted general noClee hf
u brilliant display of literary talent, and Waa honored by the inlbBite
■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
nrfghhorhood of Bristol, devoted herself to a lift <^ aetlte ChiMtti
beiieTolenoe, and to the compoeitlon of yarioui works, having Ar thi^
ohfset the religious improvement of mankind. Her praeted eeirfiit

the Reli^on of the Ftshionable World.*' In 1795, sho commeneed it
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 ;)
"Practical Piety," in 1811 ; ** Christian Morals," in 1812; « EsMy oo
the Character and Writings of St. Paul," in 1815; and « Moral Skeick-
es of the Prevailing Opinions and Manners, Foreign and Domestic,
with Reflections on Prayer." The collection of her works compnm
11 volumes 8vo.
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.
*' He was acquainted," says Mr. Amot, ** more or less, with ten lan-
guages, — Sanscrit, Arabic/ Persian, Hindostanfle, Bengatoe, Enghih,

1835.] romsicur obituakt. 315
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«

WORCESTER'S
COMPREHENSIVE DICTIONARY,
WITH PRONOUNCING VOCABULARIES OP CLASSICAL
AND SCRIPTURE PROPER NAMES.
This Dictionary is required to be used in the public schools of Botton,
and it has been introduced into many academies and seminaries in dif-
ferent parts of the country. It is well adapted to the use of schools,
families, and private gentlemen, containing in the first alphabetical
seris, about 43,000 words, as many as G,000 more than Walker's octavo
or quarto '* Critical Pronouncing Dictionary," and upwards of 1G,000
more than the " Boston School edition " of Walker ; and the whol*
volume, including the Vocabularies of Classical and Scripture Proper
Names, contains about G3,000 words, (to all of which the pronunciation
is given,) being upwards of 30,000 words more than are found in the
" Boston School edition " of Walker, together with its vocabularies of
Classical and Scripture Proper Names ; and with respect to those words
for the orthography, pronunciation, or definition of which an intelligent
English reader has the most frequent occasion to consult a Dictionary,
it is one of the most complete works of the kind extant.
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.
