Excerpt from An Address on Education: Delivered on the Day of the Laying of the Corner-Stone of Newberry College, July 15, 1857
Friends and Fellow Citizens:
Believing that the event we are commemorating this clay, is the commencement, in this portion of our State at least, of a series of efforts and labours, in the promotion of knowledge - the foundation of enlarged means of usefulness and the increase of human happiness, yon will indulge us in inviting your attention to a subject which should be prominent in our minds on an occasion like this, namely that of Education - the rearing up of the intellectual and moral man, which is to prepare him for his struggles through life, for his labors and efforts in the various duties which are before him, including his moral and religious training; this latter will impress on his mind the sentiments of truth, justice, honour, benevolence and purity of life, fitting him for that higher destination to which the Christian aspires - the hopes of immortality and the bliss of heaven.
Education, in the general sense of the term, may be defined the art of training, instructing the mind and forming the character of the young.
According to this definition, the education of youth not only embraces the instruction given for the regulation of his manners and his improvements in literature, science and morals, but every opinion he has imbibed and every habit he has aquired, either from his associations, from the reflections of his own mind or from reading the thoughts and sentiments of others. It farther includes the regulation of his propensities and passions, and that self-government which will preserve him from the contagion of examples of evil and will enable him to profit by the wisdom and virtue of the good.
