Lecture Of Professor Sllliman.

On Monday evening Professor Silliman delivered
lecture at the Mechanics Hall, Broadway, on 1.-THE
Influence of Science and the Arts on the Condition Of
Man, especially in our country"
He said the question what was truth, so long since
propoundcd by sages. was still the most interesting
Of all human inquiries. The animal and vegetable
kingdoms all proved the existence of God; but
without science and the arts man was an ignorant
and unciyilized savage. The gifts Of nature were
lavished in vain the inhabitants Of the Cannbal
Islands and other savages. These men prefer the
human feast to every other, and their moral degra-
dalton is great The use of iron is one of the first
steps towards civilization for without implements of
agriculture man cannot be changed from wandering
warrior to settled resident. Saws and other instru
ments follow, and then carriages Of various kinds.
Iron, therefore, of so much importance to the civza
ton of man, is found in great abundance in the world
whether it is of primary or secondary formation.
Where is the starting point OF this the father Of all
other artsy Ieteoric iron-the fall OF which IS
proved beyond all doubts probably the first source
Of the art. II is found mingled with neikel, which
gives its whiteness to German silver; and it is well
known that several tribes of savages have made their
knives and hatchets Of mcteorc ron whIh has ledto
the pursuit Of the metal in the ore, which is now the
foundation of many useful and ornamental arts.
The lecturer then advered to the Ericsson invention,
which was undoubtedly based upon sound and well
known principles, though he was not prepared to
speak OF the details. He wasnot, however, prepared
to pronounce the funeral eulogy of steam as some of
our editors had DONE He would therefore, regard it
as still living thing. lie then gave description
of railroads and steamboats,, and dwelt upon what
they had accomplished in bringing distant points to-
gether, and promoting the commerce Of the world.
He referred particularly to Fulton and Fitch and then
advertcd to the Collins line of steamers, which he
described as the glory Of the world. He had no into
rest in thcm and therefore he could speak of them
with mpartiality. lie crossed the ocean twice in
them, and he had also examined them critically. 1t
was unnecessary to give them the details, but he
would say that they were bound together 40 firmly
by iron, tbat they became one mass, so that it was

TO the ball. prices high fifteen dollars were paid
for tickets As is usual on al such occasions, the
dancing which was admirable, did not cease until
daylight. The affair passed Oh without anything to
the festivty. Even the weather was propiti0us,
the night being Just cool enough for dancing.

Mr.. d. .. SMITH, in response to this toast, amid
much applause. delivered the following eulogy upon
Thomas Paine -
Say, was not that, my friends, glorious day
When first fair Freedoms form beamcd DER our way,
what source OF Joy to freemen more profound
Than that they stand on freedoms holy grounds
Then let each candid soul Join in a strain
OF grateful incense TO the iustrious Paine
The patriot, in his country darkest hour,
When every engine Of a tyrants power
Was raised, against il to be hurled,
TO crush that darling object from the world
When summer friends proved false when hope grew cold,
Bought were the venia faint became the bold
When Liberty, child, from Heaven Just born
Seemed doomed to die cen on its natal morn
When want and hunger thinned little band
Unied, unclad, midst cherries winters SHOWS
Despairing struggled 'gainst as heartless foes
'Ganst both the tyrants and the elemental strife
Was offered, one by one, each freemans life,
And despotism deemed its reign secure
Ger all mankind, while time should yet endure
But, no !! eternal Justice has forbade the lie;
Truth must prevail, and freedom cannot die
The patriot Of the crisis rose, and then
The world grew free meath his inspired pen.
What bark is that which breasts the foam
Reluctant. yet so CALAMITY
Its sails are spread away from home:
II bears its living freight and see
Fair woman on its dockl Why roam
Such voysgers the untamed scar
those stern men and those women fair
w leave mot their homes; for home is not
Wnere rude oppression taints the air
with its foul presence. No, that SPOT
Must bloom with faith and consancy.
W hopes bright flowers the genial soil
Where soul and body both are free
ana Tor themselves may think and toll
where Kings and classes cannot be-
10 make a man q instant spol-
The stigma in6delity
Attached TO free thought cannot soil

Within homes sacred precincts MOI

with the family Of the Principal. We went
through it few days since, and found it
well adapted to The purpose for which it
was constructed. The situation is high and
airy, convenient 10 the Seminary Buildings.
The rooms are large, the halls spacious, and
well ventilated. The building is finished
internally in fine style, the painting being
by Mr.. A. FosrER, skillful mechanic Of
our place.
We congratulate the friends and patrons
Of the Seminary. and the friends of Female
Education, upon the completion Of this build

efforts in building mp so excellent an Inst-

The convenience Of the boarding house o the
school room, and the fact that the pupils arc
at all times under the same roof with the
teachers, is an important consideration. as
they are thus enabled topay that attention tc
their manners and morals, when not in Tho
school room. as they do to their studies wher
there. We know of no place better adapt

commend it 10 the consideration Of thos
who have this responsible duty TO perform
towards their children or wards.
