_Te sequor, O magnæ gentis decus, inque tuis nunc Fixa pedum pono pressis vestigia signis. Tu pater et rerum inventor, tu patria nobis Suppeditas precepta, tuisque ex inclute chartis, Floriferis ut apes in saltibus omnia libant, Omnia nos itidem depascimur aurea dicta; Aurea, perpetuâ semper dignissima vitâ._ After such avowals of our capacity to instruct ourselves, shall we still fly to those disturbers of the world for our lessons? No--Let us rally round our own standards--let us take the path pointed out by Bacon--let us follow the steps of Newton--and, to conclude, let us seriously consider a most excellent advice by the highest authority: "Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's cloathing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves--BY THEIR FRUITS YE SHALL KNOW THEM--Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?"
