Introduction
Men are seen in their most improved condition, when associated together in large communities. The excitements of competition are then most strongly felt — enterprise and exertion are called forth and liberally rewarded. It is then that leisure and opportunity are found for the exercise and improvement of the mental powers ; thus knowledge is increased and spread abroad, and the various arts and sciences cultivated and advanced towards perfection. In this state, too, the social affections are freely indulged, and the refined love of country, of family and friends, is awakened and cherished.

What toil and skill are required to construct habitations for its shelter ! How many hands must be employed in fabricating the ten thousand little conveniences of life within and about these habitations!
