Tlie Daily Review. Towanda, Pa., Thursday, Nov, 10, 1881. XBITOHS . B. W. ALVORD. NOBLE N.ALVORD "Daily Review'* only 25 een per month, Try it! The following is a synopsis of the first lec ture of the Institute course, delirered by the Rev. E. .T. Morris, of Neath. The subject was " Learning, its Uuses and Advanta ges." Although all knowledge is learning, the lecturer restricted his use of the term to the old conservative culture which is represented by the universities of Oxford and Cambridge in England, and by the older colleges in America. Children, almost as soon as they take up the study of any new language, or branch of knowledge, want to know whst is the use of it. They do not spend their time with out they can see some benefits arising from their efforts. Parents do not like to spend money upon their clnldrens' education with out they can see immediate results. The reason that they are not oftener satisfied is that the children have not gone deep enough, and the parents can not see for enough. They expect benefits in kind. They think that learning ought to give wealth, glory, and honor. But if, by deep learning and culture, they expect riches, they are mistaken. The man of culture and deep learning is hardly ever a successful business man. If you want riches only, do not seek to be learned. If they think that deep learning is necessa ry to give tbem glory, they are again deceiv ed. The man of small learntng who uses large words and obscure phrases, gets more praise than the more learned, but less pre tentious one. Learned men are not often the recipients of high political honors. Garfield was an exception to this rule. It is the igno rance of others and not the learning of the man himself, which gives him reputation. Unless all others are educated to his own standard, they can not appreciate his learn ing. If you want glory do not spend time in acquiring real knowledge since the sham will do better. But learning contributes to en joyment. and though enjoyment is not the end of life a certain portion of it is necessa ry to make.a complete man. As the child, at first, finds enjoyment only in carrying every thing to his mouth, yet after awhile learns to take pleasure in sight alone, so man uneduca ted, can only find enjoyment in possession; but by learning, one is enabled to enjoy the possessions of another by sight and without covetousness. By books at your own fireside, you may bo. come better acquainted with fore'.gn lands than your unlettered friend can by years of actual travel. If you lack society you have tre-sures of thought from the whole world spread open before you; and the ideas which you there obtain belong to you as much as to their hrst, recorders. Many so-called scientists wish to set up the claims of scientific culture against the claims of the older learning, saying that as a civilizer science has done more for mankind than the other. They do not sec tiiat the one civilizes only in respect to our material wants, that the other civilizes the soul. The ancient Greeks and Romans were just as civilized in this respect as are scholars of the present duv. We cannot call Aristotle, Plato. Socra tes. Thucidides or Tacitus, uncivilized. Not that the claims of science should be denied, but. they should not be allowed to overturn the other, The two should stand side by side. Iu polities learning is accounted of little worth. To succeed in politics a man need have common senss and a good knowledge of liuman nature only. Learning is consid ered superfluous. However, no one's com mon sense is injured by a little help from the common sense of others. A man's full pow ers can be exerted only after they have been cultivated by scholarship. The learned man is more true to his principles; he will not compromise his theories for the sake of pow er. Two conspicuous examples are Garfield and Gladstone. Garfield was cut ofT in the be ginning of his career, but Gladstone has had a long era. lie was raised to power by a large majority which soon melted away when he refused to sacrifice his principles to party necessity. Again raised to authority by another majority, hi* support i* now slip ping away again for the same cause. But his greatness still remains. In religion, learning better enables us o comprehend the scriptural teachings and to separate the oriental characteristics of the bible from the revealed word of God. Many vital questions are unsettled by the majority and will so remain untd culture is more general. These points can only be set tled by those having this particular knowl edge. Finally we should so live and acquire learning that we may be prepared to depart with the falling shadows. G. B. T.
