SCIENCE, EDUCATION AND AGRICULTURE.
Then followed several other interesting speeches,
on Agriculture ana the Mechanic Arts, the Foun-
dalton Of Our Material Prosperity" by Professor
Thurston, or New Jersey; on 'The Manufac-
lures Of the Old and New Worlds" by
Hamilton A. Hin, OF Massachusetts,, and on ''Sci-
| ence." by Professor f. N. Horsord The audience
being In an inattentive mood and buster with
champagne and the Hungarian wines than science,
the Professor only spoke few words on science,
| art, the telegraph and what we're the modern
achievements Of genius ana industry. The next
toast was in reference to education, and was
responded to by DR.. J. W. Hoyt, OF Wisconsin, who
laid down the proposition that people could not
prosper who were not intelligent. Our country is
not safe until It has educated citizens and II we
| neglect this VIC must tremble for our future. In
| tegence il the only security against false con-
clusi0ns-the only safeguard against political vio-
lence. ofradicalism and self-defeatng conservatism
Greatness In o nation can only depend upon the
intelligence OF people. Mr.. Lewis SeasongoOd,
who was to have spoken in response to sour
Fatherland IN America" contented himself with
reading q sentiment in German and English about
free ideas and progressive political views, and
hoping that the German would always In his new
home be worthy Of the Fatherland. He then called
upon Mr.. Fielder, the Burgomaster Of Vienna,
CHEEKY, bright, middle-aged gentleman who
said:-
LADIES AND GENTLExEN-Beng very old ad-
mirer OF American strength and American labor,
| earnestly that the best relations may ever exist
between the two countries, on account oil the
them. It is with the deepest sincerity that ex-
press my grateful satisfaction At being witness
Ss a af pr for ns
welfare Of the United States and OF It's citizens.
Whereupon we all shouted.
The next toast was Vienna, Our Beautiful
Hostess" DR.. A. Ruppaner, OF New York, rose to
respond, and was loudly applauded He said he
would refer to the historical characteristics Of
vienna-to the time when an army OF 100000
Turks endeavorec to destroy 1t and destroy Christi
aniry. Nor could this have become the chosen home
Of nearly million Of people did there not exist
political and social stimulus Those who doubted
the might and wealth OF this Empire ana Its cap
ita had only to walk In the vast galleries In the
Prater and see what had been done In art and in
dustry. This proud old city, by her wealth. her
energy, her influence and her cooperative spirit
| had contributed to bring about this grand Expo
| sition-this menu OF 1873 The Doctor then spoke
| Of his own student life in Vienna, and
sketched 1t brieny, amid laughter and applause,
and proceeded to speak OF what Vienna had done
in the arts and Sciences especially his own science
OF medicine; OF her schools and great hospitals, and
in conclusion paid rapturous euogy to the beau
tiful city, which loudly cheered as the Doctor,
having made one OF the most effective speeches Of
the evening, took his seat.
And so the proceedings came to an end, and
about eleven we all went home In merry mood.
