All this is done by Swiss engineers, bred by the same method of public school education which has filled our Patent office with American in- ventions.
Steam navigation, railways, telegraphs, overland-aud beneath the seas, have been reserved for our days, only because universal education was not sooner accom- plished. An unlettered people could not use or under- stand such things. Who could send telegrams if letters were not taught everywhere ? Would cheap postage be possible until everybody had... learned to write; or until steam machinery had made paper and steel pens abun- dant? Where could men be found able to construct the locomotives, or to work the railways and the steamers, had not scientific instruction been made accessible to the poorest by common schools?
To Holland we owe the Telescope, an invention which for its influence upon the welfare of mankind, must be ranked next to the printing press. Zacharias Junssens, a Zeelander, gave to Galileo the telescope. 1 Its applica- 1 The Telescope.
