From the property which he received by his mother, and the ample annuity allowed him by his father, his frugality enabled him to ac- cumulate a fortune, which, at the time of his death, amounted to about 120,000 pounds sterling.
By his will he directed that the income of this property (after de- ducting some small annuities) should be paid to his nephew, Henry James Hungerford, during his life, and that the property itself should descend to his children, if he had any, absolutely and forever.
" In case of the death of my said nephew without leaving a child, or children, or of the death of the child or children he may have had, under the age of 21 years, or intestate, I then bequeath the whole of my property, (subject to the annuity .of 100 pounds to John Fitall, and for the security and payment of which, I mean stock to re- main in this country,) to the United States of America, to found at Wash- ington, under the name of the Smithsonian Institution, an establishment for the increase and diffusion of knowledge among men."
Such are the words of the will, and the only words of Smithsou which have come to us relating to this remarkable bequest.
Of the reasons which led him to make this disposal of his fortune, we know nothing except by inference. He was never in America, had no friends or acquaintances here, and is supposed to have had no

particular fondness for republican institutions ; no sentence among his papers, no books in his library, no recollection of his associates shows that he had made our country an object of special thought and study. It was, we may suppose, to perpetuate his name as the friend and patron of science and learning that he made this bequest ; and it is the highest compliment that he could pay to our country to select it as the Trustee of his noble purposes, and to abstain from trammelling the legacy by any condition, restriction, reservation, or direction.
Young Hungerford died at Pisa, on the 5th of June, 1835, without issue. The event thus occurred in which the claim of the United States attached. . The particulars of the bequest were communicated to our government, and both Houses of Congress passed a bill, which was approved the 1st of July, 1836, authorizing the President to appoint an agent to prosecute, in the Court of Chancery of Eng- land, the right of the United States to the bequest ; and pledging the faith of the United States to the application of the fund to the pur- poses designated by the donor.
The Hon. Richard Rush of Philadelphia, was by the President ap- pointed the agent of the United States. He proceeded to England, instituted a suit in the Court of Chancery, recovered the fund and paid it into the Treasury of the United States, in sovereigns, during the month of September, 1838.
The amount of the fund at this time was $515,169. It was not till eight years after this period, 10th August, 1846, that the act es- tablishing the Smithsonian Institution was finally passed.
This act creates an establishment to be called the Smithsonian In- stitution, composed of the President and Vice President of the United States, the Secretaries of State, of the Treasury, of War, and of the Navy, the Postmaster General, Attorney General, and Mayor of Washington, with such others as they may elect Honorary Members. It devolves the immediate government of the Institution upon a Board of Regents, of fifteen members, namely, the Vice President of the United States, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, and the

Smithsonian Institution.
Mayor of the city of Washington, ex-officio, three members of the Senate, to be appointed by the President thereof, three members of the House to be appointed by the Speaker, and six persons to be chosen from the citizens at large by joint resolution of the Senate and House, two of whom shall be members of the National Institute, and the other four inhabitants of States, and no two from the same State.
The act established a permanent loan of the original fund ($515,169) to the United States at six per cent. interest ; appropriated the accu- mulated interest, then amounting to $242,129, or so much as might be needed, together with so much of the accruing income as might be unexpended in any year, for the erection @ a building; provided for the establishment of a Library, Museum, Chemical Laboratory, &c., and left most of the details of organization to the Board of Regents.
As the result of the conscientious labors of the Board of Regents a plan of organization has been adopted which seems to give universal satisfaction, and promise the widest usefulness.
The cost of the building is limited (with furniture, grading the grounds, &c.,) to $250,000. This will be taken mostly from the income of the original and building funds, so as to save $150,000 of the building fund, which, when added to the original fund, will make $675,000, yielding nearly $40,000 per annum.
This income, with all sums received from other sources, is to be permanently and equally divided between two great methods of increasing and diffusing knowledge-the first by publications, re- searches, and lectures-the second by collections in literature, science, and art.
The first volume of a series entitled " Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge," in 4to, has been issued. It is proposed to publish a series of a more popular character, and in Svo. form, entitled " Smith- sonian Reports," and to print, for still wider circulation, a monthly " Bulletin." Researches in various departments of science have been instituted, or aided by the Institution ; and several courses of free lec- tures have been delivered.

Smithsonian Institution.
The Library has been commenced, and although the funds have not been available for its rapid growth, it is destined we hope to meet that great want of American scholarship, a National Library for reference and research. Measures have been taken also for supplying the Cabinet of Natural History and the Gallery of Art.
The building is upon the reservation called the Mall, between 7th and 12th streets, where about nineteen acres of land were assigned to the Institution. The location is one of great natural advantages. When tastefully adorned by trees and shrubs it will be a beautiful spot. It is to be hoped that the City and Congress will not be back- ward in improving the means of access to the building, now so for- bidding and difficult. There is no other institution in which the citizens of Washington have so deep and strong an interest.
The building is in the later Norman or Lombard style. It consists of a centre and two wings united by connecting ranges. Its extreme lengthi is 447 feet, and its greatest breadth 132 feet. It is adorned by nine towers, the highest of which is 145 feet. The central portion of the building contains on the first floor, a Library, 134 feet by 50, divided into alcoves, which are crossed by galleries, and a Hall for philosophical apparatus 65 feet by 50. The second story contains the Museum, 200 feet by 50. This is divided into three aisles, the central aisle being 40 feet in height.
The east wing contains a lecture room, capable of accommoda- ting one thousand persons. The eastern range contains laboratories, workshops, rooms for apparatus, offices, &c.
The western wing and range contain galleries of art, one of which will be used as a reading room. Beneath, are rooms for unpacking books, and other purposes of the Library. James Renwick, jr., of New York, is the architect, Gilbert Cameron, contractor.

Patent Agents.
WATSON & RENWICK, F street, Washington, D. C.,
AGENTS FOR PROCURING PATENTS
IN THE UNITED STATES AND IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES, Prepare Specifications and Drawings, and transact all business connected with their profession.
From their long experience as Practical Mechanics, added to a thorough knowledge of the Patent Laws, and acquaintance with the details connected with the business of the Patent Office, they trust they will be able to give satisfaction to their employers, both in the clearness and precision of their Specifications, and in the promptness and ability with which they transact all business entrusted to them.
Their residence at Washington, by affording them an opportunity to make the proper searches in the records and among the models of the Patent Office, and in the library provided for the Examiners, ena- bles them to judge of the patent ability of an invention before sub- jecting their clients to the expense of preparing drawings and papers, and to the payment of the patent fee. The facility of access to the Patent Office, which their position affords, also enables them to make personal explanations to the Commissioner and Examiners, as to the nature and value of inventions.
They will revise and attend to the reconsideration of those applica- tions which have been rejected by the Commissioner of Patents, either on account of a defective specification and drawing, or from the presentation of an improper claim ..
They will also procure patents in foreign countries, in which they have agents of responsibility and talent, through whom the Patent can be obtained as certainly and as cheaply as if the application was made by the inventor, in person.
Persons residing at a distance may procure all necessary informa- tion, have their business transacted, and obtain a Patent by writing to the subscribers, without incurring the expense of a personal at- tendance at Washington.
Models can be sent with perfect safety by the Expresses. Rough sketches and descriptions can be sent by mail.
Letters must be post-paid.
