INSTITUTE, National, of France, or, as it is now 

 ailed, the Institute of France, was established, on the 

 suggestion of Condorcet, in the year 1795, and was open- 

 ed on the 7th of December of that year, by Benezecb, the 

 Minister for the Home Department. It was formed out of 

 ihc Royal Academy of Sciences, the French Academy, the 

 Acadcr. y of Inscriptions and Belles Lettres, and the Aca- 

 demy o. P. >.:* and Sculpture, Sec. It was re-organized 

 in 1806, during the consulship of Bonaparte, and it again 

 experienced considerable changes in the year 1816, after 

 the second return of the Bourbons. 



In order to understand the changes which this distinguish- 

 ed body has recently undergone, we shall first lay before 

 oar readeis an account of the National Institute as it ex- 

 isted in the lime of Bonaparte. 



The National Institute consisted of four classes, viz. 1. 

 Class of physical and mathematical sciences. 2. Class of 

 French language and literature, 3. Class of history and 

 foreign literature. 4. Class of the fine arts. 



II. The first class shall be formed of the ten sections 

 which at present compose the first class of the institute, 

 with a new section of geography and navigation, and eight 

 foreign associates. 



Ttte sections shall be composed and named as follows:

The first class shall appoint, with the approbation of the 

 Fust Consul, two perpetual secretaries, one for the mathe- 

 matical sciences, the other for the physical sciences. The 

 perpetual secretaries shall be members of the class but 

 shall not form a part of any section. 



The fiist class may elect six of its members from the 

 other classes of the institute. 



It may name an hundred corres, mlents, selected from 

 the learned men of France and foici -n countries. 



III. The 2d class shall be compv >:d of 40 members. 



It is particularly charged with :he composition of the 

 dictionary of the French language. It shall examine
