If that is too much to anticipate for each, — and all of you must, in the order of nature, at no very remote period, have passed from these earthly scenes, — it is pleasant, very, to think of the instruction, the impulses and incentives to virtuous living, the solace and delights, which many of every condition and age may partake and enjoy, when you that have reared these walls and spread this intellectual banquet shall be dwellers in the region of spiritual, heavenly, and ever-progressive illu...mination. Walter Scott, in that combination of penetrating discernment and real pathos wrought at times by his magic pen, represents Dumbiedikes as saying on his death-bed, in his parting advice to his son, " Jock, when ye hae naething else to do, ye may be aye sticking in a tree'; it will be growing, Jock, when ye're sleeping. My father tauld me sae forty years sin', but I ne'er fand time to mind him. " May the tree you have here planted, evermore, whether your eyes behold it, or are closed in the sleep that in this world knows no waking, be spreading and strength- ening its roots, sending out branches clad in foliage of living green, and laden with fruit, fair to the eye, pleasant to the taste, of which whoever tastes shall live, and not die, surely not die that worst of deaths, the only one we need to dread, that of the mind ; but from which the soul may derive continually increasing light, health, peace, and joy.
