Abstract
IT might be expected of a new Professor that in his inaugural address he should avail himself of the possibly unique opportunity of an audience, and should give some account of his science and of the manner in which he proposes to teach it. In that case he would doubtless claim for his own subject that it is the most fascinating and the most important of all branches of human knowledge; he would doubtless, also, proceed to prove, to his own satisfaction, that it should be a necessary feature in any system of education.
