John Quincy Adams in report recently
made to the House of Representatives, e
chairman of a select committee for that Pur.
moss. givessOme very interesting aud lengthy
riews in relation to this fund, together with
some biographical notices Of the donor a:
well as general history of the subject down
to the present time.
This is, certainly, great and interesting
subiect; much more ample and extensive
tbap II has been generally considered BY
most people, even those who have paid Il
sDecial attention It has generally been re-
oarded as a donation of half million for the
purpose of education-tO found college or
institution of learning in the United States
70 he located at the city of Washington. But
MIR, Adams takes very different view Of the
subiect. The terms of the bequest are. IN
the Ianguageof the testatOr, fOrthe .inerease
and diffusion of knowledge among men" ms
seems TO imply more than the education OF
children and youth, which does not increase
the knowledge of men, but only communi-
Gates to the rising generation such know
ledge as we are already possessed OF.
Mr.. Adams regards the United States as
the mere executor or trustee of Mr. Smith
SON. for the benefit of mankind in general.
And that accepting the trust, the Govern
ment is bound TO appropriate the money as
will best tend to the increase human kRotO-
ledge generally, and not use it for the benefit
of IL, limited States. the District Of Column
bia, or the city of Washington to educate
their children.
He, therefore, recommends that, the
principal sum should be permanent IN the
hands of the United States, and remain IN
diminished forever, the faith of the nation
having already been pledged for its faithful
preservation, and that the annual interest,"
only should be used. and that in whatever
way may be thought from time to time would
hest carry out the views Of the testator. He
recommends that $40 900 Of the first years
interest be appropriated to the establishing
in the CITY Of Washington of an Astronomical
observatory, to be conducted on more lib
eral and extensive scale than any IN tn
world. The whole fund first to be incorPo
rated by Congress, and placed under the q
rection of competent Board Of Trustees.
