he cultivation of Science, and the progress of arts have justly merited the regard of every age and country. I esteem myself happy, therefore, that I have an opportunity of delivering my sentiments before so candid and learned an audience, upon a subject which respects the advancement of the most useful knowledge, and the growing credit of this institution;—a subject as important as can well be imagined to employ our serious deliberation, or animate our warmest pursuit.
