Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Progress of Popular Science in the United States Gentlemen Alumni: In discharging my present duty I trust I shall have your kind indulgence. The importance of the task to be performed, the ability of those who have preceded me, and circumstances which have recently connected me with other exciting pursuits, preclude the hope that I shall be able, on this occasion, to meet the general, or even my own expectation. We should, however, be encouraged by the presence of so numerous and respectable an audience, which very flatteringly evinces the interest that is felt for our success in the common effort we are making, to improve the mind, to cultivate the heart, and to advance the happiness of man. To one who is sincerely devoted to the welfare of his country it must be gratifying to reflect on the rapid advancement and general diffusion of science, literature, and knowledge, which, during the present century, have taken place in our own country.
