Art . X . The Comparative Tendency of Unitarianism and Calvinism to promote Love to God and Love to Man , —considered in a Discourse delivered at
Brighthelmstone , on Wednesday , June 30 , 1813 , before the Southern Unitarian Society . By W . J . Fox . ] 2 mo . pp , 34 . Johnson . Do we love a father or a tyrant ? Does man win our charity more as a brother and co-heir , or
as one of another caste , doomed by divine decree and hurried along by an Almighty hand to endless degradation and woe ? These questions appear to us to sum up the controversy between Unitarians and'Caivinists ; and we
are happy to report that Mr . Fox has answered them with great pertinence and ability * His sermon is , indeed , of rare excellence . We cannot give an abstract of it , for it is itself a compendium of thought

a little more precise in his definitions , to discard the names of some obscure authors , and to check an evident bias towards some of the denominations . In this last respect , Mr . Evans ' s Sketch , which the author professes to follow , is not a bad model for his imitation .
We like not the term Humani . tartan * It is to our ears as the word Trinity was to John Calvin ' s , iC barbarous / ' No Christians take it upon themselves , and therefore it is a needless distinction *
In such a work as this , a place should have been allotted to those Protestant Dissenters , increasing , we believe , in numbers , who , though not Quakers ^ delay the perpetuity of Baptism . A happy
name is wanted fo'tf them } bht until a better be found , they must , we suppose , be contented witb that otAntz-Baptists . Of these , a sub division , ( not natives of Ireland
