here it may be said that there is no uecessi-
ly or proprlety in using these classical
terms, or hard words, il either Of the pro-
LESSONS; but this does not change the case,
for they are already in use, and we of the
nineteenth century would be late indeed 10
rise up in our wisdom and say they are su-
perfiuous, and henceforlh shall be used no
more. 1t is true, there are some terms used
both in medicine and law, the proprie:y of
which Is not very manifest to us, but we
suppose the design in most cases IS brevi,y,
or TO express in one or two hard words what
would otherwise require tiresome circum-
locu,ion. But we believe if they answered
no other purpose but that of giving dignity
to the profession, their use would be iusli(i.
able. Were it not for the Formidable ar
ray OF big words, with which our lawyers
and doctors for.ily themselvcs-,he very u,-
terance of which strikes terror into the
heart OF the inquis,ive vulgar-these pro.
LESSONS would be-contemptieie in the eyes
OF the popuIace; for familiarity j, this, as
well as In everything else, breeds contempt
And as 10 theology, we suppose no one in
his sober moments will deny that the divine
should be Greek scholar; for as he is the
shepherd of souls; he should by all means
know with what he feels his flock. And
instead Of excluding the classics from our
Colleges, they should be more carefully
studied. We are persuaded that opposition
10 the classics originated more from tho
manner in which they are studied, than
from any real objections to olhemselves. The
conclusion Of the whole matter, therefore
is this: No man can merit the appeIation
of learned, who is not classical scholar.
