querable scruples ; scruples which I do not see that these " Second Thoughts " do any thing towards removing , I cannot , however , but observe in this place , that I am unable , from the perusal of Mr * Elton ' s book , to state what his sentiments on this subject really are . I doubt whether he is fairly out of our port after all . If the following passage , which is the most to the point that I can find , be descriptive of his present opinions , I can perceive nothing in them but what is
strictly Unitarian , even to the proper humanity of Christ : " Let it be doubted whether the filiation of Christ were before the worlds , or the passages seemingly bearing that import be reducible to the same sense of prescience in God as is expressed in 1 Pet . i . 10 , and the sonship imply a state of glorified humanity , commencing in time and with the birth of Jesus , as may be to consist with Psalm ii . 7 , Isaiah xlix . 1 , and Luke i . 35 ; whether again the instrumentality of Christ , in the visible and invisible creation , may
not bear , as Locke supposes , a mystic and spiritual sense , referrible to the regeneration of man ' s fallen nature , and his assumption into a new state of immortality , as may be thought to be implied by Isaiah lxv . 17 , and 2 Cor . v . 1 . 7 ; or , finally , whether ' the word' that * was with God , ' John i . 1 , relate to Christ primarily , or to the attribute of the Father with which Christ is after spoken of as personally identified ; let all this be doubted , or the latter alternative throughout be even decided upon , and yet the scripture testimony
will remain in express avouchment of the fact , that Christ was at least * the word made flesh : ' this complex relation of deity indwelling in humanity , constituting Jesus what he was , the Christ , « the only-begotten of the Father . ' " The whole of this passage , not excepting the latter clauses , is , in my opinion , good , and true Unitarianism , and contains views of truth of which I for one cordially approve . I am indeed of opinion that it is not on these points that Mr . Elton ' s secession has mainly turned , but on those
connected with the doctrine of atonement . I wish , for my own part , that instead of abandoning the Unitarian communion , with whom I apprehend that he still agrees in the most essential points , he had remained in his place , and done his best towards reforming those things in which he esteemed us defective . I think there is still room for Tercet Q povrt iec ; . If , Mr . Editor , these remarks should suit your purpose , I may probably continue them another day . T . F . B .

Sir , Hackney , June 25 , 1827 . As communications have been at length established with our Transylvanian brethren , I trust some of our young inquiring students will direct their attention to the language and literature of that country . The former ( Hungarian , or , as they call it , Magyar ) is one of the most remarkable of the European dialects , being undoubtedly of Oriental origin , and having a very slight affinity with any of the idioms of the surrounding country , whether Teutonic , Slavonian , or Romaic . It was cultivated at an early period , and
a Grammar , entitled Magyar Rtgisegek fa Rickasaqok , was published as early as 1539 .. There is no want of books , both in Latin and German , b y which a tolerable acquaintance with , the Hungarian tongue may be acquired . Of Albert MolnaVs Gramtmatica Hungarica ( first printed in 1610 ) there are many editions , and there is a Latin and Hungarian Dictionary by the same author . Hiiagarian Grammars in German have been published by Jos .
