Cleveland Meeting. CLEVELAND, Ohio, August 28, 1953. After a long and fatiguing journey we are landed safely in the beautiful city of Cleveland. We encoun- tered the usual accidents only, ranning over one cow, throwing off the locomotive near Oswego, and, finally, getting into Buffalo just one hour after the sailing of the steamer. This was compensated, however, by aride to Niagara, when, finding it im- possible te get so much asa footing and respect able dinner in the crowded hotels, we retraced our steps to Buffalo, and took the fine steamer Crescent City. Ishall have occasion hereafter to speak of this truly magnifieent vessel, as she’ bas made but seven trips, and is, in my estimation, the most beau- tiful, well arranged, and best appointed vessel that I have ever seen on the Lakes or the Sound. Among other distinguished gentlemen who came over with us, were ex-President Fillmore and Hon. Judge Hall. They are bere to attend the meeting of the association, and it is said will urge that its next session be held at Buffalo. The late President is looking much better than I ever saw bim, and moves quietly and unostentatiously through the crowd that presses around him, as if he had never reeeived an honor, or been at all distinguished from his more or- dinary countrymen around him. Letting politics take the long sleep to which the late elestion so un- mistakably pointed, it is beautiful and snggestive tosee the old war-horses put on the harness of science, and strive in that nobler race that crowns the victor a real benefactor to the great brotherhood of man. J ‘This city is one of the great evidences of Western civilization and progress. But a few years since she numbered but a couple of thousand gouls. She now has a population reaching 36,000. No city in Ame- rica has a prettier locality, a more healthful climate, better schools, or a more intelligent mass of citizens. Society has peculiarly the New England cast, with all of New England cultivation. Ample enterprise stands open to all. Every man seems to have his own establishment, does business on his own ac- count, and reaps the profits himself. Thus, more than in any city that I have seen, every man in the community has a competence—is independent. Mo- nopoly has not crushed labor, and wealth has not been the instrument of enslaving the people. I ven- ture the assertion that no class of cities in any coun- try has ever proved more flonrishing than those on the Western lakes—a fact attributable, I have no doubt, to that general and wide spread intelligence pervading the generally unknown and unnoticed masses of society, which has enabled them to seize the ever abundant productive elements of the coun- try, and mould them into wealth and power. The airis as pure as it is at Newport or any of the famed throng points of the East, the weather cool and de- lightful, the mercury at 84, and everything indica- tive of a pleasant meeting of the association. As the meeting of an association like this is a mat- ter of great importance, viewed as the index to the progress of the country and the times, in the sciences and the arts, you will, { know, indulge me in a slight review of its rise, progress and present condition, es- pecially as it now embraces, and long has, in its membership all of the distinguished savans in this country, and many from Europe. ‘The “American Association for the Advancement of Science” was projected in Boston, in 1847, and grew cut of the old ‘Association of american Caolo- gists and Naturalists,” then in session. The latter association wae formed in 1840, by twenty-two gen- temen, whoro names are as follows: — Prot. Lewis C. Beck, Prost Ed. Hitehoock, Prof. J. C. Booth. Bela Hubbard, Chi Dr. D. Hougtiton, Dr. Charles T, Jackson, Prof W. R. Johnson, (dec.) W. W. Mather, Alex McKinley, Prof. Henry D. Rogers, Prof, James C. Hail, Pref. R E. Rogers, S. W. Roberts, C. B. Trezo, R. C, Taylor, Tardner Vanuxem, (dee’d. ) This small band of pioneers labored faithfully, and held meetings each year in different eastern cities, until in 1847, at the time of the mecting in Boston, the association numbered four hundred and sixty- one members; among whom we find very nearly all of the distingnished personages who before und since that period have figured in the scientific circles of this country. This association, after resolving itself into the new association, determined to hold the first annual meeting in Philadelphia, on the 20th of September, 1948, in the Academy of Natural Sciences. The meeting was constituted by Professor William B. Rogers, of Vir- ginia, who was the chairman of the last meeting of the Association of Geologists, &c. The constitution submitted by the committee appointed at Boston, was adopted, and a large number ef letters read from gentlemen who had been addressed by the commit- teee Many expressed great interest in the new as- sociation, and many sent papers for reading and publication. The organization was thus encouraged by nearly all of the great minds of the Country. (ter this, Professor Rogers, introduced to the As- seciation, Win. C. Redfield, Esq., of New York, who had been elected first President of the associa- tion at Boston. Professor Walter R. Johnson had been elected first lo Secretary, and Prof. Jeffries Wyman, Treasurer. Thus organized, the association heurd a list of valuable papers, many of them from the ablest_ gentlemen of the country. I believe that this was the first meeting at which Mr. Agassiz ap- peared,as he had just then came to this country irom his temporary sojown in Great Britain. The sociatfin published at this meeting but a small volume, 156 pages, containing, however, most valu- able papers. T cannot forbear alluding just here to the founder of the old_A ssociation of Geologists and Naturalists, Prof. Lardner Vanuxem, now deceased. A native of Penneylvania, he was educated at the School of Mines, in mee, le the first State geological survey of North Cerolina. His whole life was devoted to science, and his whole country. He was one of a smal bend no had at an early day pro- duced a geol survey of New York, with maps and descriptions, which commanded the admi- ration of thé world, He was associated with Colonel Long in ing ths Legislature of Pennsylva- » g The geological survey of New York was co: in 1836. At the close of each season of field labor, and, on one or two occasions at th cement of the summer labors, all engaged in the survey met, by arrange iment, at Alt r the purpose of Se notes and mutually ‘¢ ond instructing each other. At the close of the second year the great want of some geological nomenclature was serionsl o found that the saine rock d in two" or more distrigts of the State, and consequently sc an guage De devis- ed for their (description ider nd distinction. They hed no meavs of communicating with their borers in forcign lands, So in the autumn of 18% Professor Vanuxem proposed that an invitation be extended to the geologists of Pennsylvania and Vir- ginia, particulerly, to join them, and that the same invitation be extended to other States, to meet in Philadelphia forthe purpose of devising and alopt- i a geological nomenclature which might be ple to all those then engaged in the State and thus become the nomenclature of Am n geology. ‘The first meeting was to have taken place in 1839, but for want of concur- rence in those thus widely separated, it was not accomplished until 1840. This was the first meeting of the old association noticed above.

P. Putnam, New York, very few of them being now in print. It is after such labors and under such prestige that the association meets in’ Cleveland to-day. The meeting promises to be unusually interesting. Presi- dent Pierce told me this morning that the titles of forty-two papers had already been sent in; some of them of unusual value. Thus far the attendance is very numerous, and all the hotels, Pareculeny: the Weddell, are crowded to excess. It is pleasing to note that the most eminent men of the country are here, and that there'is no bickering or strife in the as- sociation to prevent fullest and freest fraternization. I ma gine that great good will result from this meeting. The city of Cleveland invited the association, throu; the City Council, and voted funds to pay for the publication of the velume of proceedings. This is certaitly enlightened and commendable enterprise and liberality; and doubtless ber citizens will be paid by the reflex a dozen fold. The first meeting at the West was that at Cincinnati. Professor Mitchell invited it through the Astronomical Society, and the writer of this pledged the gratuitous enter- tainment of the members, and important travelling facilities. It was to call out and awaken Western men. The association was averse to leaving the sea- board, but is now satisfied that it was one of the most profitable meetings ever held; as the represeatation of Western geology, choncology, and ichthyolo- EY, was vi ‘ge, while a great number of active gentlemen, befere unnoticed, were brought thus into co-operation with their fellow laborers of the East and the Old World. Thisasgociation, which commenced £0 humb!: 1840, and was remodelled in 1848, with four hundred and sixty-one members, now numbers nine hundred and sixty-five members, one hundred and fifty-seven of whom were added in 1851 at the Albany meeting. Should it hold together, with wise and unambitious councils it must exert vast influence on this conti- nent. It has already promoted many surveys, ob- servations, explorations and scientific expeditions, that but for it must have been neglected, even until the present. Such an organization of such men is no idle thing of self aggrandisement, I trust. It has, however, bad no aid trom the government. It has received no bonus, premium or bounty, like the “Bri- tish Association,” which that government has wisel: fostered with its tens of thousands of pounds, Thi isa point of sad failure with the government. The men of science in our midst, striving and toiling with- out support er encouragement, are the m@awho have vitalized the whole Jand, and made the ragged moun- tain regions rich with roses of iron and gold.

Atte dressing the Throne of Grace, by Rev. Dr. Perry, Prof. Pemex delivered the following introductory address: Geatiemen of the American Association for the Ad vencersent of Science—We ar: in the services Professor of Mathematics, N city; Charles £. W ef our high canec. After an ivt of two years, wo hewe come together st au appointed rendezvous, to me each other glad with the tidings of truth which we the earth, sod to reacimete 'y of the :uceersfal search for the‘ philosop e"—the true clizer pil frult of the tree of knowledge, and the foot Him of whom the earth is t footstool. Gen'lemen, from such an sasembly egotiem shrinks abashed, aod you will not reprove your president that he does i his feelings of grateful pride at the honcr h you have confered upon him, and his profeund sense ineapacity to wear the robes of and His hopes of success ta oni. fis duten do mot arise from the vigor of SEES enjoy ‘Of a social festival, We bavecome to giveand to receive ion and inspiration. We have come to the shores e” this great lake to admire and study the yebb es which owr brevbren way have picked uv here and there, with much toil ani labor, and to learn where and bow they are to be found. We have brought hither our freights of knowledge, to distribute them to the world, as may do good de ep, we have come to study our ay ss seientific men, and especially as Americaa scientific men. Wears to learn the apparent and not very eaty paradox, that Awerics cannet keep pace with Europe ip science, exoept by gowg ahead of her. The new world must begiv to build cepa f level above that of the old world ; and it must build from ita own materials. This is not asking too much. It is no more than was ac: complished by the American ship and the American reap- ing machine. The Yanbee who picked the hardest loot 19 Europe. and contrived a lock which all Engiand could not pick, is but a typeof American intellect. This was a work of mind, and we have a right to expect equal excel- levee in the higher and more abstract effurt« gevius. But above all things, it was not to be forgotten that the temple of science by whom-oever built. bulonged to no country or clime! It iv the world’s temple, and all men are free of its communion, Let us not mar ita beauty by writing our names upon its walls, The stone which wo have inserted is mot ours, it {snot mine—bat it is part of the tem: picks up the rheil, innoceatly admires {is form and coloring, and listens, witbout « thought of telf, to the ringirg of the angels within it. Tt is the upconsciousmen: of the attitude which git it ite grace uty. and mskesthe child and the rhell parts of the same divine thought, each forever belonging to th other, and both immortalized in the marble of the artist. Gentlemen, let us stand here reverently a ground. Let ns not preeume to moke tl rourd with the bickerings of angry conteu.ion for sepe rior distinction, and the foul complaints of mortified vanity. Let us not raise the money chat ’ cry of mire and thine, lest the purifyer ceme, and, taking the royal jewel into his own possexaien thrust ns out invo the diteh, and turn our fome into infawy. It bas been observed by others, not of ournumber, that the meet- ings cf the association have been characterized by & generous appreoiation of eneh other's Iabors, and it bas materially contributed te the tofluence powar ef our ‘society. May we continue this honors- blo hermopy, so fitting to our sublime studies, and Le always open te the reception of new discoveries and new discoverers. But mutual admiration is pot our only or our most necessary offies. Mutual criticism is equaily imperative, and equally conducive to the best interests of the association. We should exert ourrelves to reatraim vagueness and uncertainty of thovght and expression, and to prevent the coneealment of old truths under new forms. We must not permit er- roneous statements to pass unchallenged. It is our stern ond solemn date to criticise aud expore all false devel- operente,whether they are intended or the unintentioned reaults of carelernens or ignorance. Thia task may, aud thould be performed with delicacy and generosity, aud the mode of performance will clearly manifest the spirit of the operator, acd mainly dotermine the sucosss of the ation, The knife wielded with unsparing ri is effective than the touch of Ithuie! spear. ‘For no falsehood can endure the touch of colertial temper; but returning of force to its own liken up it starts, discovered and exposed.’ Gon denen, let us learn wisdom from the past. Toore is srother to which I must allude before closing there opening remarks, which are already too much protracted e bave a constitution and Isws, and itis our duty to ebserve them, if in any important respect we have do viated from eur fundamentel laws, we should either re- trace‘our steps or amerd our coastitution. But let us not forget that unskilled lawyers may easily become pe- dants of law, and ebserve that this fs an asreciation of gentlemen whore garments are intended for easy and graceful protection, ard not a bedlam, whose denizens are to be strictly sonfined within'straight waistevats. And row, geatlemen, without further delay, le! ceed to the business for which we ar mbled, At the close of the address, Professor Samuel St. John, of Ohio, was elected General Secretary, in ab- sence of Professor Rogers, the Secretary Elect. After this election the Secretary read the constitu- tion. Three members of the standing committee were then elected by ballot, as follows:—Protessor William Chawvenct, United States Naval Academy; Professor Wolcott Gibbs, United States Free Acade- my; and Dr. Joseph Leidy, University of Pennsyl- vania. The following resolutions, drawn and presented at the Albany meeting, were wnanimously adopted: — 1 That all papers, either at the general or in the se eral sectional mectiogs, rball bo read im the order in which they are entered upon the books of the association; except that these which may be eatered by a member of the rtanding committee vf the association, shall ba diets to postpcnement by the standing committee of the Se 19fGt ir apy communication should not be ready nt the assigned time, it shn'l be drepped to ths bottom of the list, end shall not be entitled to take precedeace of any subsequent commupicstion 8.

The association determined to resolve itself to- morrow morning into two sections: one of physics and mathematics, and one of naturel history, chem- istry, mineralogy, geology, geography, and etanolo- gy.
