ESSAY 



The Committee on Essays have attended to their duty, 

 and regret to report that there has been but one 

 offered for the Society's premium, and that, although 

 meritorious, is not equal to what we would wish to have 

 published as a prize Essay. This, with the absence of 

 competition, has induced us to withhold the premium, 

 and recommend that the Secretary be directed to return 

 the manuscript to its author.
