ture Of tenderness and rigour, bestows
the blessings Of wisdom, while she re-
fuses the readiness Of uterance. With
out entering however into a disquisition,
which would lead me far beyond the IL
mits Of this occasion, may remark, that
the modern Europeans have run into the
adverse extreme, and appear, during .
considerable period, in their system Of
lpublick education, to have passed upon
eloquence a sentence Of prescription.
Even when they studied Rhstorick as, a
theory, they neglected 0ratory as an
art and while assiduously unfolding to
their pupils the bright displays of Greek
and Roman eloqurnce, they never at
tem,ted to make. them eloquent them
selves. Ofthe prevailing indifference
to this department of human learning, no
stronger evidence could be offered, than
the circumstances under which We are
assembled. = ~ s's.~~ =
Nearly two centuries have elapsed
since the foundation Of this university.
There never existed people more anxi-
Gus to bestow upon their children the adj
vantages Of education, than our venera-
bic foreIathrrs and the name Of Har-
yard is coeyal with the first settlement
Of New. England. Their immediate
and remote descendants down to. this
day have Inherited and transmitted The
same laudable ardour, aud numerous
foundations OF various kinds attest their
attachment to science and literature: yet
so far have rhrtoriek and oratory been
from enjoying a pre-sminenee in their
,system Of education, that they are now,
for the first time, made 4 separate branch
ofins,ruction; and | stand here to as
sumo the duties of the 6rst Instructor.
The establishment Of an institution for
the purpose was reserved to the name Of
BoyLsToN name, which, if publick
benefits can impart title 10. remem-
branee, New.Eagland viii not easily
forget: a name, To the benevolenee, pub
lick spirit, and genuine patriotism Of
which, this university, the neighbouring
metropolis, and this whole nation have
long had, and still have. many reasons
TO attest: name. less distinguished by
stations Of splenIour, than by deeds of
virtue and better known to this people
by blessings enjoyed, than by favours
granted a name in 6ae, which, If not
enc ircled with, the exteraal radiance of
popularity, beams, brightly beams, with
the inward lustre Of bene6cenee. The
insritusicn itself is not of a recent date.
0ne generation Of a1ankin,iy according
toths usual estimates of human life, has
gone BY, since the donation Of Nicholas
Boylston constituted the fund for the
support ofthis proiessotship. The mis-
fortunes which befel the university, I'M
ayoidably consequent upon ourrrvoluti-
on, and yarieus nther causes, have con-
