    toe , is , that ... the two very spacious buildings erected and occupied solely for the purpose of the schools , are found inadequate to that extension of their plans which they would be glad to carry into effect .

    If to the total number f pupils in the town , 14 , 500 , be added an indefinite .. probable . number ~ for-those ^ youths whose parents can afford to pay for their education , we shall gain a total , without attempting a correct calculation , of nearly 20 , 000 pupils , which number cannot be very remote from

    the aggregate of that part of the population whose ages may average from ten to fourteen ; and supposing these to be renewed , in perpetual succession , every three or four years , here are ample means in full operation for

    the education of the whole community . With this broad and demonstrated fact , it may be fairly assumed that no town in the kingdom , perhaps not in the world , possesses more advantages for the attainment of moral and

We might commemorate a Sunday School without them . The Sunday scholars might be regaled , without spreading the table again for the congregation . But the one object

    supplies us the occasion for promoting another . And when those , whom the ordinary calls of society do not , and perhaps cannot , bring very closely together , are found thus recognizing each other as fellow-worshippers and Christian friends , the feeling is one of pure gratification , and the results must be kindly and good .
