matical. Give to Mathematics the
credit Of accuracy, and with il you
surrender the wide field Of thought.
You coufine yourself to narrow
path in the great field OF intellectual
research. while your classical broth
or is permitted to explore every
nook and corner in the extended
plain.
Another reason why the Classics
have so many admirers is because
thev fill the mind with images of
beauty which tend both to mental
happiness and moral goodness, while
Mathematics fill the mind simply
with facts and close it against all
speculative philosophy. Shall all
the delightful scenes of life and all
its pleasures be surrendered to the
exactitude OF Mathematical The
facts and truths that Mathematics
furnish are helpful to the scientific
fields Of enlightenment, but we need
ethical postulates which Mathemat-
les fail to supply.
The Classics promote inquiry and
faith, while Mathematics tend to
make tho mind reject as false what
ever can not be proved by logic to
be true. Give TO us the speculative
Tendencies to seek unknown realms ;
grant to us the privilege Of entering
the broad arena of investigation and
we will unfold wonders. Wonders,
though they may not be proved
true by Mathematics, stand forth as
as living realities.
BY exercising and stimulating
thought, the Classics lead TO the ele-
vation of mental over mechanical
force, while Mathematical science
tends to subiugate spiritual to mater
ial power. The Classics release the
faculties of the mind and give them
free scope to penetrate unknown
regions. They lay open vast tracts
of unexplored territory and the nc.
tive mind will be at liberty to sub.
due them. On the contrary, Mathe-
matics would cut short that free.
dom, and research would be retard-
ed, if not entirely abandoned.
Without the Classics, the early
history of the world would be an en-
tire blank. The development and
progress of learning and art in those
stages would be as a region Of dark.
ness. The Bible, with its divine in
spiration, belongs to the Classics.
The Christian religion owes it's
foundation almost entirely to
revelation. Here lies the keynote
to the salvation of immortal soul and
Mathematics would prove nothing.
On the whole the Classics stimulate
activity, broaden and elevate the
plains Of thought while mathematics
tend to narrow and subiugate it..

Dr. Joseph PGestIy.

We CLEAN the following clipping
from Fishers Making of Pennsyl.
vania' and republish it for the rea-
son that the subject was well known
among educators of this section.
The extract says:
1t is, perhaps a significant fact
that Joseph Priestly, very distin-
guished man of science, who discov-
cred oxygen, furnished the means Of
discovering several other gases, and
who is often spoken Of by his oulo-
gists as the creator of modern chem
istry, sought Pennsylvania as a re
fuge. He was so outspoken in his
views, he carried the deductions ol
science so far in advance of his time,
and he was so radical in politics that
he was prosecuted in England, and
on one occasion the mob destroyed
