For angmcnting the aggregate amount
of intelligence and mental power, in any
community, the grandest instrumentality
ever yet devised is the institution of Com-

lizes all the facts, or fables, which ever
tbcj may be, of the Divining llod. It tries
its experiments over the whole surface of
society, and wherever a buried fountain of
genius is flowing in the darkness below, it
brings it above, and pours out its waters to
fcrtiliro thc earth. Among mankind, hith

of native talent is aroused, you may as
