The science of Mechanics truly demonstrates that knowledge is power. By the aid of a few simple machines, combining the principles of the mechanical powers, the feeble strength of man is rendered adequate to moving with facility vast masses of matter, and to per forming all the complicated and delicate operations of the useful arts, to which society is mainly indebted for the present advanced state of civilization and refinement. The importance of a knowledge of the science of Mechanics to the daily wants and comforts of almost every individual member of society, renders the study of it interesting to the scholar and the gentleman, as well as to those who are by profession devoted to its practi cal details.
