observations, (i>. 'S t, vol. i.; tl.at from his

grass, which is important to promote the
growth of the weed : for the product de

four or five inches high, there is hut little
trouble in tending it, fur as the roots pen

rises above it, it will then hear the drought.

where he continued to improve us u scho

and the duties of life. Having finished
his course, he left the University at twenty

he resided for some time with Mrs. Blake,

many years, to honor us with their pre
sence, to shed upon us the light of their

kindle our gratitude, by the recollection
of their services. Let us delight to honor
them with the pious feelings with which
sons delight to honor their parents: Let
us regard them with thoughts, solemnized

We all remember, that for many years
past, Major Garden, as our presiding offi
cer, felt it to be his peculiar duty, as it was
his pride and his pleasure, not to sutler
the dentil of any member to he recorded,
without giving a sketch of his life and ser
vices. It well becomes us then to do for
him, that which he esteemed it to be so
honorable nnd delightful to do for others.
Such a momorial is due to him, to them,
to ourselves.
Major Garden was born in this city, on
the 4th of Dec. 1757. His father, Dr.
Alex. Garden, a native of Scotland, was
