Dr. Franklin's Legacies—It is wel
ktimvn to our readers that llio celebrated
Dr. l-’ranklin bequeathed to the towns of
Boston and Philadelphia, £1000 each to be
loaned in sums not exceeding £00, lo
young maitled artificers under the age 05,
who could produce evidence of good moral
character, and give two respectable sureties
in a bond with lliomsolves. for tho repay
ment of lha money in ten annual iustal
inents, together with annual interest of live
per cent-. Calculating on this basis, viat
compound interest without losses or waste of
time, ho Inferred that “if no unfortunate
accident should prevent the operation,''each
Fund would amount hr ono mindteo years
from its ooinntenceinent, to £ 131,000, lie
accordingly directed tliat at the end of this
period, £100,000 should he drawn from
each, and applied To the benefit of the res
pective cities; the remainder to he loaned
on Interest as before for another hundred
years, whsn it would amount in both cases
totlie enormous sum of £4.001,000, (or
510.040,840!) “OfwbichM lie says, speak
ing of the Boston legacy, “1 leave one mil
lion sixty-one thousand poniids to tbedis
position ofthe inhabitants of tho town of
Boston, and tltreo milium to the dlsposl-
tionof the government nf the Stale, not
prnttmiiig tocarry my riewsony further.”
And the tame in the case of tho J*ltiladol-
phialegacy.
■All this is very fair on papnr—but in
prartiro it absurdity -in tlij extreme. The
result tbus’fnr, is ‘briefly es follows!—Irf
Boston, after ihe lapse of $8 years,the fund
has increased 317,710 01; being an addi
lion to the original donation of ft lgf
eent pet annum, tit simple interest,
nnmbct nf lliant during the whole period,
jit only 043; or less than 7 in a year on an
average. The number frnm,l781 to 1801

So 1041, 60; 11191 to 1826,81; from
18t6luOct. 1800,8; showing a constant
decrease, from the origin of the fund to
thejiiysertt time. “Of 60 loans made du
ring the period nf about ten yean, 88 were
paid (whole or in part) by the sureties, and
connecting this fact w ith the diminished
number of applications fur loans, renders
it certain that tho benevolent intentions of
Dr. Franklin have not been realized
their full extent, nor has the increase
the fund, founded upon a never ceasing ao
cumulation nf interest, been by any nte -ns
realised." ’ The whole amount at present
loaned out, is 53,070 24; the remainder Is
invested in the stuck of (lie Mess. Hospital
Life Insurance Company.
The’atate of the Fund ir, Philadelphia la

the nominal amount, including the original
donation, was (20 780 03; af whiaH^840',-
800 90 was in outstanding bonds. -If this
large nominal amount, tlieComniitteo say,
"a very grgat proportion nevor wilf be re
paid either principal o) interest.
While such is the unfortunate issue of
this charity, the ntrtive* of the benevolent
donor qjioiild be duly 'appreciated.—N. )’.
