Description

Excerpt from An Address and Poem, Delivered Before the Mercantile Library Association, at the Odeon in Boston, September 13, 1838 IN compliance with your request, gentlemen, I ap pear before you this evening, to take a part in the oh servance of the eighteenth anniversary of the Mercan tile Library Association. This meritorious institution was founded for the purpose of promoting mental im provement among the young men of the city engaged in commercial pursuits. Its objects were to form a library well furnished with books best adapted to their use; to lay the foundation of scientific collections; to make occasional or stated provision for courses of instructive lectures; and to furnish opportunity for exercises in literary composition and debate. It would be super fluous to offer any labored commendation of an insti tution of this description. It needs only to be named in a commercial community, to be regarded with favor. It has already been approved by its good fruits, in the experience of many who have enjoyed its advantages; and has received the most favorable notice from dis tinguished gentlemen, who, on former anniversaries, have performed the duty which on the present occa sion has devolved upon me.
