Excerpt from The Oration on the Fourteenth Anniversary of the American Institute Dear Sir, The Managers of the Fourteenth Annual Fair of "the American Institute of the City of New-York" gratefully acknowledge their obligations to you for the timely relief afforded by your prompt acceptance of their invitation to deliver the Anniversary Address last evening - which invitation was delayed by the intervention of unexpected circumstances, and did not come to the knowledge of the Managers until within a few hours of the time which had been announced for this part of the celebration. The important facts contained in your Address, and their bearings on the vital interests of Agriculture and productive industry generally, and the patriotic sentiments it is calculated to inspire if extensively read, are the reasons for soliciting from you the further favour of a copy for publication. Dear Sir, - I have received your kind favour, requesting a copy of the Anniversary Address for publication. You are perfectly aware that it was not prepared for such an important occasion, or such an immense assembly as that to which I was summoned at two hours notice, through the unavoidable absence of the learned and honourable gentleman who was to have gratified and instructed the friends of Commerce, Agriculture and Manufactures. The subject which I selected is one, too, little appreciated by the inhabitants of cities and towns, and I think far too seldom brought before their attention; and yet it is full of interest, and admits of popular discussion. The kind reception which the address met with on its delivery, and the frequent applications I have had to repeat it in other places, induce me to comply with your request, although I am quite aware that the Oration is better calculated for the audience than the press.
