SCIENCE, WEALTH, AND MORALS.

The undersigned very respectfully invite pup
lie attention to two great objects Of individual
and general prosperity--the development of the
natural resources of our country, and the pro-
motion of practical science. To large extent
these two objects are one and the same as a
knowledge of the natural resources of industry
and of wealth is pre- eminently practical science
The more this knowledge becomes individual,
making every farmer acquainted with the char
acter and capabilities of his own fields, and all
classes familiar with the natural wealth imme-
diatey surrounding Them the more thoroughly
will it be promoted, the more widely diffused.
The most direct-perhaps the only-mode of
securing effectually these two objects, combined
in one, is by making practical science subject
of primary instruction in schools, especially
aided by the reciprocating efforts of families
Such step, at once simple and direct, is rem
dered vigorous and effective by the eagerness
with which children pursue, and the rapidity
with which they acquire, knowledge of natural
objects, so richly scattered around them by the
hand of their Creator Thus occupied, inter-
ested, and instructed, they are most effectually
drawn from objects and pursuits leading to dis
order, lawlessness, and violence, now but too
manifest in all parts Of the country, threaten
ing if unchecked, the perpetuity Of our repub-
lican institutions
As the two leading objects of human pursuit
are agriculture and mechanism, it is self
evident truth that institutions especially de-
signed to fit those entering upon the stage of
action for their future vocations should teach
primarily and thoroughly subjects connected
with those pursuits that schools teach promi-
nently and vigorously--subject and modes fun
damental in the success of the farmer and me-
chanic. The sciences especially embracing
agriculture and mechanism are geology, chem
istry, and geometry, to be taught practically
and experimentally.
The unparalleled progress made in these sol
ences, especially the first, within few years
past renders their future advancement easy,
certain, and rapid, directly applied to the daily
pursuits of all classes. The developments and
presentations made of these subjects by Mr..
Josiah Holbrook, and the results of his past
efforts in aiding their advancement, render it
proper that special attention be directed to the
plans and measures now proposed by him for
their continued progress and still wider diffu-
sion.
Such being the plain dictates of common
sense, suggested by the progress of our country
and the spirit of the age, the undersigned invite
to them the attention of all interested in human
progress, and especially the public functionaries
whose official duty and highest pleasure must
alike. Induce them to give, the whole subject
thsir promEs puiouasfy and hearty reciprocations
We only add aIa.iae consider the plans and
proposals of Mr.. Hofbrook, as shown above, of
great value, and entitled TO the favorable cen
sideration of the public.

FOREIGN NEWS.

AeiC York, Mr.. 2.-The steamship Franklin,
from Havre and Southampton, arrived at y
O'Clock this morning. She brings four days
later advces from all parts of Europe.
The most interesting news contained In the
English papers, has reference to the excitement
relative to the gold discoveries in Australia, and
the unpromising aspect Of affairs at the Cape Of
Good Hope.
The business Of removing the goods from the
Crystal Palace was proceeding with extraordi-
nary rapldty. Prince Albert had written auto
graph letters of thanks to each Of the foreign
Commissioners.
When the Franklin left Kossuth had not ar
rived at Southampton, but he was confidently
expected from Gibralter in the steamer, due on
the oath. The most extensive preparations were
being made in Southampton to give him hearty
and enthusiastic reception.
At Manchester, in consequence OF the decline
Of the Liverpool cotton market and the absence
of revival in the Indian markets. there was
considerable depression. At Nottingham there
had been good nome trade, but pause IN the
export market. The prospects Of the Iron trade
we're more Favourable
At Mark Lane on the Goth the Corn Market
was dull, aud prices with difficulty obtained.-
Ia foreign grains, the market was fiat, and 80,
600 quarters had been re sold for re-cxportation
% Holland and Belgium. Indian Corn for Ire
land in good demand, at SIX to nine per
quarter advance. English Flour met tolerably
tree sale, but French and inferior marks were
dull. Foreign Barley unatcred. Peas scarce.
