That was, gentlemen, a crisis. Every one fell it to bo such. A general anxiety pervaded the breasts of all who partook of tho glory of their country r.t hom"—and how was it abroad ? Why, every intelligent friend of human liberty throughout the world, looked with amazement at the spectacle which wc exhibited.

Orio word more gentlemen, and I have done. The Mayor has spoken of Education : and can any man’ doubt, as a social being, as a being interested in the world that is—as a be ing vastly more interested in that which is to be—that Education is the general business of . man ?
