Their . great tleslgn is to cultivate in the vouthful mind ! a habit of deep, close, and energetic thought, And the conviction of this is plainly exhibited in ; th- very name you, as a body, have chosen. ritronesian being only another term for thiuk Jng, reflctuis;, meditating. The importance of this habit to him that would be a sn'iolar, can not be overestimated. What, I ask, is he w i;hout it? Were is his arm of strength? Ia what lies the magic of his power? the true alchimy of his soul? It is not enough that he attend school it is not enough that he even master the branches of his education, and transcribe, page after page, from his book to his memory. Xo, this is not sufficient. What is a bookworm after all, but a book-worm a living. s ir i i . rv r ' : iv JtOf i f , ....s ...y, u.uertiig ouiy irom Uio material one, in this, that it is upon paper rnn.hm.n, L....,: .' r y " -"T-aK... or mo - rocco, with gilt edges; while the other is on i,- , ., , f . ,, . material page, locked and barred to all save one.

Or, what of that anatomist, who would inspect nd study only the exterior of the human frame, observing its beauty and symmetry, regardless of its internal structure? Books present you with the compounds; you are to throw them into the alembic of thought. Hooks collect for you the flowers of every age and country; you are to classify, arrange, analyze. Books bring before you the thousand subjects; you must disect those subjects for yourselves. The time when man shall learn nothiDg but what his fathers did, or knew, is passing away.
