appliances, and that lore cannot fail to take root and flourish, naturally and wholesomely in this soil: withhold these appliances from such education, and it can never so take root and flourish, but will prove a sickly and unwholesome exotic.

Let us then have a school of indigenation-a school to make all other schools succeed-a school to furnish good books and good teachers in the living tongues of the people-a school to rear translators, who by staying within its walls, and schoolmasters, who by going abroad, shall together give a solid and safe beginning to the Europeanisation of India.

Good books and good teachers! are you not assured that these are what we want; well, then, let us bend our efforts, firstly and chiefly, to their attainment by founding the Normal Institution I have spoken of, and the plan of which may be easily settled by and by in Committee. Meanwhile let us manifest our sincerity and earnestness by coming forward with the requisite funds, and be assured, my friends, that we have but to show the way in order soon to behold it crowded with followers, wondering that these things had never before occurred to them.
