    nisters, and a Legislator of your country: as such, your Lordship must be aware, from your knowledge of the state of public bodies, of the reformation necessary in the constitu- tion of the College, agreeable to what the lapse of time, the extension of science, and the different circumstances of modern so- ciety and improvement demand. The pro- minent defects of the original and now anti- quated charter being here pointed out to your Lordship, I have no doubt your Lord- ship will feel a pride in bringing forward to the eye of the Legislature a subject which once placed, as it ought to be, on a liberal basis, will be equally for the dignity of the College at home, for its respect abroad, and for the general interest of every part of the community. I have the honor to be. My Lord, With the highest respect. Your Lordship's most obedient Servant, THE AUTHOR. London, March, 1817.
