InACQURAL ADDRESS DELIVERED , BY Prof-.Wf I. NicnqLS, a. m., of Asn land Colleqe; Sept. 15th. "The chief glory of a nation" says thq great English Lexicographer, Dr. Johnson, "consists in its authors." Another equally eminent authority!! proclaimed ,. "Let me make tho poetry h lts laws or formttlatts its ere creeds. "Show me. tho books -that a man reads," says a third, "and I will tell you the character of the man." Thus it happens, that accumulated evidence, establishes beyond cavil, tho fact, that the Literature of a nation, its learning, its science, its let ters, its authorship, its scholastic achievements of everydegree, isa prime factor in determining national charac ter, permanence and greatness. A single illustration of this propo sition must convince the most skepti cal. Our own government entered upon itsjdistinctive national career under auspices M-holly without predecent-in the history of nations. While other nations have struggled up slowly and painfully from low con ditions, trailing their path of progress with tl.i) blood of martyrs, patriots and heroes; evolving with toil and sweat and tears, strength out of weakness, light out of darkness; faith, supersti tion, learning, culture art and scienco out of grossest ignorenco and godless creeds, the United States, like a ship full rigged and manned, swept grandly out upon the sea of national progress freighted with the wealth of civiliza tion and the nobler arts, with the niag. na charta of free and equal rights, of civil nnd religious lil)erty, with con stitutional guarantees and safe guards and the highest, noblest, divinest gift of God to man, a pure christian lailfl. aria tt tolerant clu.'oilan prati- tice. And do we ask who were these who planned so wisely and builded so well? "Wo know what masters laid the keel What workman wrought the ribs of steel What made each mast and sail nnd rope AYbat Anvils rung, what hammers beat In what a forge and what a heat Were shaped the anchors of thy hope." Every lip in this assembly to-ifay is whispering with reverent accents tho names of Franklin, Adams, Jay, Jefferson, Washington, Hamilton, Henry, Madison amln host of ethers, heroes, jiatriots'and statesmen, men of culture, of letters,- cf scholastic at tainments, and above all men who with a dee) and abiding faith in the God of nations,' sought the glory of their country and the moral and intel lectual elevation of their race. Passing now from particular illustra tion to general statement, we may safely assume that Learning and Re ligion are the chief factors in promot ing human welfare; that to theso two, indissolubly joined, the race must look for its emancipation from the bond age of error and for its moral andsocial elevation In discussing this proposition-wo remark: 1st, That from the beginning Religion has fostered Learn ing with zealous care; or if wo may be allowed a figure involving a relation ship most vital and tender we shall say that Learning is the child of Re ligion and the parent with pore than maternal care hasnurturedand watched over her offspring. From earliest an tiquity to comparatively recent times, Learning has been peculiarly the possession of the priestly class. Tho erudition of the sacerdotal class es in Egypt, in China, in India, in fact inall the ancient empires of the Orient, is too well known to need com ment The voluminous writings of Confucius the founder, of a religion boasting more devotees than those of all others combined, professedly jiad in view the cultivation of letters and the preservation of learning. The moit valuable manuscripts of Greek and "Roman Classic Literature owe their preservation to the zealous care of the church. Amid the sack of royal cities; the overthrow of dynasties and powers; the palling of a - higher civilization, the loss of priceless arts, and treasured sciences, amid anarchy and ruin and the beastly excesses of savago hordes fattened with slaughter and the spoils of war; these priceless treasures of a classic age were hoarded in priestly cells and guarded by the time-defying walls of sacred raonastarics. When tho fierce and bloody Turk fastened upon "the great capital of Eastern civilization and culture, the city of Constantine, and the Cross gave war beforer the Orescent, tho learning which fled before the- savago conquerer was welcomed to the "great universities which religion had already planted in the heart of Europe. 'And in our own land we may safo ly say there is' not a. school of estal- srpia uuea iiut uvre ira origin utrectiyor in directly to religionists nnd their coad jutors. We must agree then with the highestauthority of this or any otherage, we mean the author of the "History of civilization," "that all literary life pro ceeded from tho clerical and that all tho eruditions of science, language and let ters has proceeded from schools and Universities founded in the interests of Religion." If then these things bo true, and who can deny thcmJ are wo not to congratulate ourselves upon the auspi cious inauguration of this enterprise to celebrate which we are met 1 We are to-day engaged in a work of no common interest. We are laying, as we trust, broad and deep the foun dations of an institution of learning; an institution where our children and our children's children shall be trained for vast and extended usefulness; an institution that shall wield an influence not only upon our own but on every succeeding f.ge. From these halls of learning shall go out we trust men and women who shall stamp their impress upon ' tho times; -who shall determine and .mould the culture of their age. Wo expect to train here, "Men whom the lust of office cannot kill, Men whom the spoils of ofllcc cannot buy, Men who possess opinions and a will, Men who have honor men who will not lie, Men who can stand licsldo a demrfgoguo And dam his treacherous flatteries with out winking, nv.lt-.. -.in in . - "'- 'W iivr-unm suutiunucii, ninnivc -TrTnaBBj the fog - aJ In public duty nnd in private thinking." These are the men the -world needs to day; and to this work we pledge our highest, best endeavors. And in the prosecution of this en terprise we have called to our aid the sanctities of the christian religion. Seeking christian culture and christian character wo Jiavu placed our institution under tho fostering care of one of the leading branches of the great Protestant Church, believing that only in a vital union of religion and learning we shall find a realization of Our hopes. . And, I believe, I voico a common sentiment of the Trustees and Faculty wheh'I say that in impressing into our service the sanctities of the christian religion we shall with care and watch fulness keep ourselves above nnd be yond the baneful influences of bigots or, sectaries of every sort. The com mon ground of christain faith and hope where all good men may meet and grasp hands shall be tho arena of all our labors. Again I say may wo not congratulate ourselves upon this auspicious beginning? Learning with rare exceptions hasever championed tho cause of religion and her highest endeavors, her profoundest research, her most exalted efforts have been eriiploycd in the. service of tho church. And hero we enter upon a field of thought too vast for critical review in the time allotted us. Volumes might bo. devoted to this theme and the subject remain unex hausted still. A careful review would bring before us in vast procession -the scholasticism of the ages: the history of every science; tho development of every art; the growth of every system of philosophy. It would lead us to a study of the language and literature of many peo ples, their social institutions and their moral statistics. Wo should And our selves treading now tho flowery fields of Poesy, now the mazy labyrinths of "fio tion"and again groping ninid tho somber shades of archeological and antiqua rian rscarch. Wo must therefore content ourselves with bare outlines, selecting here and there an isolated fact in support of our theory. In the study of Philology, we shall find the initial efforts of every people in their written language to have been in the direction of the religious idea, the heathen developing tho Theogomy and the christian the Theodicy of his times. Tho Immortal Illiad of Homer, what is it but tho Thcogamio system of tho Pagan Greek? and tho sublime conceptions of tho book and Job what are they but tho Theodicy of Iho christian Hebrew? ' ' The earliest written production's of ourowntonguewero poqms paraphrastic of tho scriptures, forlWit remembered there was no written Anglo Saxon lan guage till after the conversion of 'the poo-' PJQjo datjwQ ye dab'biefs in saying flight on unflegded wings, did you never reflect that our glorious mother tongue; destined to be spoken by five hundred millions of people and to endure while the great round world shall roll, rich in all its grand develop ment of literatureandlearning, wisdom, art and science, varied in its -expressions as every shade of human want and woo, as every phase of human pos sibility and power, oh can you reflect without a thrill, that this glorious mother tongue of ours was birthed and nurtured by tho religion of the Bible. Again in tho domain of physical sci enco there can be found no real antag- ' onism between revealed religion and,1 the researches of scientists. '. ' It is true thatVhcn Columbus for mulated his theory of the spherocity of the earth, the churchmen stood aghast believing, it rank- heresy. So when Galileo promulgated his theory of the revolution of tho planets tho monkish scholastics raged upon him and Lis choice lay between revocation and the rank. -" Yet who does not know that the real antagonism was not between learn ing and religion, but between learning and ignorance, which too often garbs itself in ecclesiastical robes? Again, in later times, when Geology opened its marvelous pages, when the old rocks began to tell their strange goiH nges-of extfnet fcrnrrr- and species, of epochs and periods so voiceless and remote that the six thous and years which Chronology had as signed to the Mosaic Rccord,dwindlcd to a hand's breadth by comparison, the cry went up "Geology has destroyed tho Bible; Scienco nnd Revelation are in conflict." "If Science stands, Reve lation and all that is built upon it must fall." "But the story of th rocks and the" story of Moses both stand and not a Scientist in all tho schools to-day claims any conflict between, them, for7 the God which tho Scientist finds in nature and tho God which the Chris tian finds in Revelation nro tho same, tho one eternal, unchangeable and uhi- -. vcrsal being. Again, in the field of high art, we shall find Painting, Sculpture, Music, auxiliaries of Religion, and not in any sense opposers of it. In Painting tho masterpieces of tho ages have been of Religious inspiration of which "The Madonna and Child," "The Last Supper," nnd "The Crucifix ion" may be taken as models. In music the grandest conceptions that have come down to us through the ages past, throbbing and thrilling through the great heat of humanity are the solemn, woishipful Oratorios, tho grandly resounding anthems and tho "Hymns of loftypraise.'The Miserere," "The Te Deum" and "Tho Gloria in Excelsis." Music is the native tongue of exulting praise, of solemn worship, of glad thanks giving. It may voice alike the despairing wail of lost souls, or the triumphant songs of those who have come up out of great tribulation and are at last adorned with the gleam ing robes and glittering crowns of the redeemed. In the mechanic and ; indus trial arts we shall find equally cheering results. The first use to which the art of printing was put was to multiply the copies of the Scripture. The first book ever printed was tho word of God. ,,- r'H' And while we cannot dwell upon this point, we may say ingeneral terms, that- civilization and religion are so closely allied, so nearly identified at every point, that what ever promotes the one must necessarily promote tho other. Hence the Church does well to claim the great inventions of modern civiliza tion, as so many forces in the hand of the eternal God, who is working out hi3 wise designs in the wide range of infin ite leisure.
