To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A little later, in 1848, in connection with the same move- ment, the position of Professor of Mathematics in the navy was dignified and improved, and their numbers limited with manifest advantage to the scientific service of the government. During this and the succeeding administrations, govern- mental science, stimulated by Bache, Henry, and Maury, scientific administrators of a new and more vigorous type than had been previously known in Washington, rapidly advanced, and prior to 1861 the ins...titutions then existing had made material progress. Those of more recent growth, such as the Army Medical Museum, founded in 1862, 1 the Bureau of Education, founded in 1867," the Fish Commission, founded in 1870,* the Bureau of Ethnology, founded in 1879, 4 although not less important than many of those already discussed, are so recent in origin that the events connected with their development have not passed into the domain of history. The material results of the scientific work of the govern- ment during the past ten years undoubtedly surpass in extent all that had been accomplished during the previous hundred years of the independent existence of the nation.
