I overheard this morning, .n
_remark by a •
friend whose remarks always maim un impres
sion•upon MO, thatllio amount of a non's in- -
finance depends Upon his education. • 13* Wei
amount and finality of education men are
classified, and not . by Thus, in the
_Eastern 'States, - merabants and manufackyrers
lead in influence, for they have, as a elites, the
moat eultivaied , intelligence. In
,Pennsylva
nia, I may say, •without disparagement to
tholse in cities and some other porfions• who
form exceptions—die learned professions lead
in Influeneo. In iho South, it may saki
with enuattruth, that the planters have con-
trolling influence, and In all these eases the
amount of influence is in eqtMl ratio with the
amount and quality of educatiori. •
'There le stimalim in this idea. It sboics us
how essentially important it is, inn State
whereligricultural pursuits prevail, and con
stitute the broad basis of thia wealth of that
State, that,agriculturists should have an
cation suited for themselves, and .equal in
power to their own wants, ant the nation's
want.
ror they have an amount of solid virtue—
we can all acknowledge—which is stronger
than is possessed by other classes; and which
if rendered active and influential by the pow
er of an adequate education, will ever prey)
tiNeafety and bulwark of all our institutione,
and of our and fleck posterity.
This is a meeting of all classes. The pm-
I Veal farmer, the sagacious and intellectual
lawyer, the thoughtful and careful physician,
the generous patriot, the philanthropic
all desire to combine their best charazteristics
in the institution we contemplate, for the im

The influence of that society is felt everywhere
throughout the United States ; everywhere
