Overview

Excerpt from The Mathematical Miscellany, 1836 The Editor has the assurance of assistance from individuals whose names would be a suficient guarantee for the respectability of the work; and if he succeeds in establishing it, he has no doubt of enlisting in its aid much of the mathematical talent of the United States. He begs leave to commend his undertaking, in particular to gentlemen of the mathematical chairs in our colleges, with the suggestion, whether it might not be made a useful auxiliary in cherishing a spirit of science in their classes. Should this suggestion meet their view, there will be formed a distinct department adapted to this purpose; and pains will be taken to make this part of the work interesting, for it will be peculiarly gratifying to the Editor, if he can supply the means in any degree of fostering the emulation of American youth in a study which is peculiarly adapted to the enquiring mind, and whichis daily becoming of more practical importance to the country.
