A general idea of the College of Mirania; with a sketch of the method of teaching science and religion, in the several classes: and some account of its rise, establishment and buildings. Address'd more immediately to the consideration of the trustees nominated, by the Legislature, to receive proposals, &c. relating to the establishment of a college in the province of New-York by William Smith
"... I know not when I have read a Piece that has more affected me, so noble and just are the Sentiments, so warm and animated the Languages. Yet, as Censure from your Friends may be of more Use as well as more agreable to you than Praise, I ought to mention, that I wish you have omitted, not only the Quotation from the Review, which you are now justly dissatisfy'd with, but all those Expressions of Resentment against your Adversaries, in Pages 65 and 79. In such Cases, the noblest Victory show more is obtained, by Neglect, and by Shining on." - BF to Smith, 3 May 1753. show less
