About This Item
Philadelphia: John C. Clark, 1836. Paperback. Very Good. 24 p.; 22 cm. Disbound from a volume of unrelated 19th-century pamphlets. "3" in ink at upper right-hand corner of title page. Nicholas Biddle (1786-1844) attended the College of New Jersey (later Princeton University) before his career in finance, which included serving as the president of the Second Bank of the United States. In this address, Biddle advised the most recent graduates of the college to model themselves on Cicero, if called upon to become statesmen. "It cannot be that our free nation can long endure the vulgar dominion of ignorance and profligacy." In Very Good Condition: disbound; light foxing throughout; otherwise, clean and tight.
