VATTEM AlRE'S INTERNATIONAL
'n .ros EXCHANGES. .-..' ft,.--,9-
AVERY large part Of our paper is this day de-
voted to M. Vattemare's plan of international
exchanges 1t is gratifying that, at this time of
deep political excitement, when, thelwhole pub
lie nilndis absorbed in the great conflict inyoly-
ing, as SO many bslieve, our future destiny,
there is one question presented on, which we al
can agree--=which is worthy of the attention Of
every one, and YET about which there is no par
ty. It'isii pleasant to leok over the list of the
names Of those Who have united in conmenda-
tioniof' this SCHEME. so fully explained by NJ,
Vattemare's letter. which we have republished,
to see those who ARE arrayed in the most ran
coroas strife, uniting in common voice in praise
of the+gneat undertaking, and of him by whose
intelligence and persevering industry it has been
established We sayestablished because it is no
longer a question whether the scheme itself shall
be carried into effect-thel question is who shall
participate in its benefits, We will not repeat
the highsencomiums which others, whose position.
in the world gives value to their opinions, have
passed upon the scheme itself, and upon him who
has been SO fortunate as to have accomplished this
great undertaking; but we will congratulate our
selves that we, who upon this subject can sym.
Pathisei withlthe great protector, that we reside
in city capable Of great undertakings, and.in
which the foundation has already been laid for
carrying out, as far as Baltimore and MARYLAND
are concerned, all that NJ Yattenare desires.
We refer to the society which has already, as
we learn, been chartered by the Legislature,
with ample powers to make the necessary ar
engagements to secure to us the full benefit of
M. Mathematics labors. Nor can we believe
that there will be. any difficulty in commanding
the means, necessary to place US in the immediate
enjoyment Of the scheme, as far as it has been |
executed, i..@
One of. the immediate consequences of an APP |
propriate action the subject will be to give to
Baltimore the benefit of her natural position as
the most inland commercial city, nearest to the
great West, and to the seat of government, as
nursery fer literature and the fine arts, which,
if properly encouraged.will add so much to her
commerce and manufactures. 1t is our hobby
and we forbear. We learn that preliminary ar
rangements are in progress for town meeting;
we nope that the attendance viii be gene
raj, and that such measures will be adonted that
