And in the cotn mon concerns of life we do not hesitate to assist c b other in such things as we cannot perform irselves.

Now, if you wish to be an artist, of whom there could hardly be too ma-iv of eminence for the good of our country, an i somebody must sustain that re- Ivion to her, you need a tolerable stock, at least, ol the knowledge of things; and you ought ro know somethin \ of the philosophy es nature ; and >( you should become pretty well versed in litera ture, and gain some knowledge of the sciences, you shall be nothing at all the worse for it. in tact, if I were au artist, l should think it a very dry business to be compelled to go no further with m y profession than gny good master might be pleased to give me insight. 1 should like to make improvement—make new discoveries, new inven tions. But I should knew-that I could do but lit tle in that way, without a knowledge, yes, a tho rough knowledge of every science which related :it ttll to my particular profession. If you wish to be a lawyer, you ought to be well versed in history and metaphysics. If you wish to he a physician you should he acquainted with history metaphy sics, botany, philosophy, chemistry, dec. If you expect to be a legislator, you should know some thing of the nature of men and things, which of ■course, would involve a little of natural and inoral philosophy ; and above all things you must have an idea of the nature of law, and of the nature and condition of the country for which you ex pect io legislate. A pretty general knowledge of Mings, young gentlemen, is indispensable, 1 don’t cire what you go at, if you expect ever to rise to eminence.

It is true, we are not compel ‘f! 1 to follow one occupation «ooner than another, ut whatever we undertake it immediately becomes a duty; because then, something is expected of p and whatever is required of a man, requires a utyto perform it. And we may call such duties oca, > 'f you will allow it; that is, such as we take upon ourselves, which we can lay down at plea and then they cease to be duties, which rc •Thrc a good degree of knowledge to be discharg r| w ilh honor to ourselves and to the good of the or country at large, as the case m.av But there are natural duties which we owe °°u country, that is, such as we are bound by be laws of nature to perform. In the first place, '" c are indebted to our country for birth; in the so- | coii 1 for protection during our infancy, therefore, ii we are no: actually sworn by the act of birth and the protection of our juveni e years, we are natu. ally bound, by honor too, which should be as I'.ml ing as au oath, to defend hm aud her institute >ns, as being the common mother of us all. But the laws of the land do consider all persons, as soon as horn, obligated by the very nature of civil govern ment, to defend their country’s territory from the invasions of enemies, and her laws and institutions from encroachment and pervertions. And, nltlio as above mentioned, we ar- not actually bound by any outward and for n v natii.i: and obligati-.n, to the performance of tins and. ■ , v.: >ue v. ry fan ~a: we exist is the stro-v. t ■ i,, under Av-h wee ui be hel l to .our outy. ~ai i iug» d'n l ■ onr very constitution hy t: .- h _ . >f n«*t«: - • the moment of birth. F>r i: u, • v.i. first i cle in the preface of tin. book oi nature, (if 1 a - such a figure,) that men shad and fe-.ui ii land of their nativity from all foreign invasions, from intestine insurrections, and from al! .njuries in any way whatever, as far as in tiieir power es which is a debt of gratitude they owe their u:; i» - land in return for her protection during their in fantile state. And lift - this reason we claim this as Jour home; here we claim protection; here >!i>» ■A >- of citizenship. For ii' this were no! < ise, we could not claim any of these under one government sooner than another. But, gentlemen, it requires, very often, a large - nor-' of knowledge to know how to discharge our duties fully, and without it, we may sometimes be at a loss to know whether we be performing them at all. Now you would very quickly tell me, that, if some foreign enemy should invade our borders, the greater part of our troops would be raised from among the illiterate, and that they would make as brave soijiers as the most professed scholars of til“ country, aud 1 should agree with you at ouce But suppose our country were composed entirely of Washingtons, Jeftersons, Franklin,, and all the worthies of the past half century, would they ever make the invasion ? They would fear the power of the mind, young gentlemen, more than the strength es ’lie arm, or the undaunted courage of the heart. You know that prudence and fore sight. at such times, forms the strongest bulwark, and-if we had no heads among us endowed with ,j< h powers, how long do you suppose it would be, before we should have to pay homage to a vir gin queen beyond the Atlautie ? Nay, if there never had be-m such among us, where would be the dar liberties we now enjoy ? Why, instead of eujovi lg as we now do, all til • rights of mau, we woul i have been, this day, under the domin ion of a woman. Stilly anil finally, ii is onr object to exhort you, young gentlemen, to make the acquisition of knowledge an object of paramount importance. In the first p! ire then, we will lay before you, in as few wolds as we can, the several advantages re sulting from intellectual attainments, which we shall couch under the general term of education. Knowledge, first of ail, is the discovery of truth; that is, the discovery of facts iu relation to any thing worth notice as they do really exist. Ist. Education teaches us how to estimate the true value of felicity, and shows how vain it is to look for happiness from any circumstance in life, or from ans external object when the mind is dis ordered and perturbed. It teaches us to deny ourselves of all the futile Kftd short lived pleasures of sense; to find happiness in the enjoyment of a noiseless life and an easy conscience. It tends to enlarge the mind ; to exalt and ennoble the views ; to govern the thought and guide the reason ; to form and regulate the manners according to the strictest rules of morality and politeness; to tem per and control the passions; to render ns useful to society anil agreeable to onr frr nds from the spring-time of youth to the ea 1 of our existence. If sustains the bitter cup of life, and renders it tolerable, nay, agreeable • it smooths the rough waves of adversity, and checks the rising discon tent; it,tempers the desires of prosperity, and crowns its followers with the laurels of peace and happiness. Or, as the immortal Cicero most hap pily expresses it—“it fosters our earlier years, and will delight our declining age; it is an ornament in prosperity and affords a refuge and solace in ad versity: it imparts gratification at home, and does n it embarrass abroad : it remains with us during the vigils of the night, and forsakes us not when we close our eyelids in sleep; it roams with us in foreign lands; goes with us wherever we go, and is our companion amid the retirement of rural scenes.

IOHN VAN BIJRE NkS ATTEMPT TO I C VST AN V 'IERIC \ N INTO AN ENGLISH I PRISON So much lmbe*n said about John Van Buren’s \ movements in London, that we are by no means j disposed to add to Ins adventitious buttcvtly conse- ! quence. But unless we have been misinformed, > he lias been an actor in one scene which ought to ' be exposed. The transaction, as the report comes | tons, was substantially this: Mr. Van Buren took ! with him to Loudon a note against an American • (Col. Jas. Watson Webb,) then in England, for several thousand dollars to which that gentleman • had a go id defence. Van Buren met the gentleman referred to, and : asweleara was indebted to his hospitalities in j London. Me however oooealed the fact that he I was charged with the collectim < . nix qnestiona ble note, until that gentleman had iefi Loudon,) and was on the eve of departure, from Bristol, iu the Great Western. At this moment, when a- j moiis intire strangers, the gentleman was arrest ed by the especial direction of Mr. John Van Bn- j ren; with the alternative ofpaying fraudulent de- ; mand of several thousand dollars, procuring bail ! from a free-holder in the county of Bristol, or be- i ing committed to prison ? i Thus situated among entire strangers, the gen- ( tleman related the fact to a Bristol merchant, who generously interposing between a stranger and oppression, entered the hail required, and the vie- j tim whose incarceration in a Bristol prison wasde- j liberately contrived by John Van Buren, was res cued by an honarable, warm-hearted stranger, and enabled to return to his Home and his Family. Such conduct from one American to another in a Foroign land, is abhorrent to every sentiment and emotion of justice and honor. An individ ual whom ciicuinstauces has elevated to the high est circles in Londou, should have scorned to stoop so low. And no man imbuedjwith the sen timents or the feelings of an American could have been guilty of such perfidiousness towards a coun tryman. mr. McDuffie s opinions. Mr. Me Duffis’s late letter is obviously remar kable for the conflict it exhibits between his won ted candor, and his regard for an old personal and political associate.
