Excerpt from The American Journal of Science and Arts, 1870, Vol. 49: Nos. 145, 146, 147 Alexander von humboldt was born in Berlin on the 14th of September, 1769, and died there on the 6th of May, 1859, in the ninetieth year of his age. A rapid sketch of his youth and early manhood will serve to Show how well he prepared him self, single-handed, to accomplish so much; more even than most of the learned academies Of which he was a member, and certainly not less than any of the great VO ages of Discovery, and celebrated Exploring Expeditions condimted at the public expense. The course pursued with him was so peculiar, and contrasts so completely with the usual course of training in the colleges of this country, even in the scientific departments, that no ains have been spared to render this account as complete an exact as possible. Unroll the scrolls of biography and no name will be found a brighter example to stimulate, encour age and direct the youthful student than that of Humboldt.
