ADVANTAGE OF
NATURAL
HISTORY. To the Editor of the Lurgan, Portadown, and Banbridge Advertiser. SIR--I have
been much pleased, and I would add, profited, by
the perusal of
the articles lately published in your paper on the
Bee. It
must be a source of great gratification to you to see that one of the
objects
intended by your publication, has been attained,
namely,
exciting in the minds of the people, and especially
of the
working classes, a spirit of enquiry, and a desire not only to
attain, but also to impart knowledge. As the study of Natural
History is one the most likely to engage and
attract the
attention
of the young, and the middle classes, I
have thrown
together
a few remarks on the advantages to be obtained
from its
study, and trust they may to a certain degree be
of use, in urging
others to not only read and study for themselves,
but also
from time to time communicate their stores
of knowledge
to others.
