Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Emanuel Fellenberg's Institution, at Hofwyl, in Switzerland: Two Lectures, Delivered in Georgetown, D. C
It was on these principles, gentlemen, with reference to this distinction, that Mr. Fellen berg founded a system of practical instruction, composed of nine establishments. This system and these establishments recommend themselves more and more to public approbation, the more they are known and examined. Each of these establishments is distinct from the other, and especially adapted to its appropriate uses. So essentially different are they, that the observer, at the first view, might naturally ask, what re lation has the one to the other, and by what accident have they been united in this place? But he has only to elevate himself so high as to overlook all at once, and he will then dis cover the easy, natural, and necessary connex ion bet'ween them. I shall now examine the different establishments, and, in a summary way, describe them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
