He died in Genoa, June, 1829. He desired to found in the United States, a land he never saw, an institution which should live in the memory of men when the titles of his ances- 124 BRANCHES OF INTERIOR DEPARTMENT tors, the Northumberlands aucl the Percys, were ex- tin(5l and forgotton.
The institution is for the increase of knowledge among men. It assists scientific men in original re- search, and it publishes the results, which are sent to leading libraries, and are also accessible to scientis
...ts throughout the land.
The bequest was for several years before Congress, but in 1846, when the funds had reached three-fourths of a million dollars, the Smithsonian Institution was founded.
Its translators turn all scientific works into English, so that Americans can have the benefit of them in their own language.
Miss Thora Steineger, a Norwegian lady, has charge of the classification of all animals received by the Smithsonian. Women's work in the scientific depart- ments is gradually increasing, as colleges, like Vassar, Wellesley, Smith, and Bryn Mawr give more and more attention to science.
