Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Catalogue of the Officers and Students of Washington University: For the Academic Year, 1860-61 The present members of the Corporation have no sectarian purpose to serve. They earnestly desire that the University should attain a high moral and religious character, as a Christian Institution in a Christian Republic; but they equally desire that the narrow principles of sectarian ism and party spirit may never be allowed to enter. They have under taken to establish, upon a broad American foundation, an Institution of Learning, Practical Science and Art; and, under the blessing of God, nothing Shall divert them from their purpose. On the 22d of April, 1857, the Formal Inauguration of Washington University took place, by appropriate exercises at Academic Hall, and by an Oration delivered by Hon. Edward everett in the Mercantile Library Hall. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
