But this is not the fact. These qualifications are so far from being incompatible, that they generally ex- ist in a superior degree in connexion with each other. The connexion, to be sure, is not so essential, that a man may not be a very good teacher of Latin and Greek, and still know very little of any thing else. Still as the studies are arranged in all our schools, academies, and colleges, where young men are pre- pared for teachers, all the elementary studies, includ- ing geography, are ge...nerally taught before the lan- guages. So that by adding them to the qualifica- tions, even if it were never required of the instruct- 43 ers to teach thein, We ensure more mature and ac- complished scholars in those branches, which are more frequently and generally taught. I would not be understood to discuss, much less to approve this arrangement of studies, for those destined to be scholars by profession. Such arrangement exists, and I avail myself of the fact for my present purpose. But besides ensuring better teachers for the common branches, there are always some, who would attend to the languages, as preparatory to a publick educa- tion, if they had opportunity.
