pour the pathetic remonstrance of benevolence— ' How often would I have gathered ye beneath my wings , and ye would not . ' As Lazaru 3 rose from the tomb at the sound of the voice he loved , so shall that same love subdue all things to itself , and at length raise to life , and light , and happiness , the whole human
race . Love is the fulfilling of the law ; it is the only law whose operation is not degrading . God is love . The nearer we approach to him in nature , the nearer shall we approach to him in power . Would we be perfect as our Father in heaven is perfect , the warm radiance of our affections must shine on the evil and on the good . Through such agency alone can the evil be coaverted into good .

Wisely affirmeth the instructive M . Jacotot , that' omnia sunt in omnibus ; whereof one species of proof may be had any hour in the day between the Bank and Charing Cross , Oxford-street , or Paddington ; to say nothing of much collateral and impressive evidence
of the above universal maxim , which pursues the line of argument from the premises of the Elephant and Castle to the conclusion of the Angel in Islington . It is impossible to look into these vehicles of knowledge , without being moved thereby to feel that all are in in all . * And so is it in this great omnibus , the world ; which , besides that , as Mr . Malthus says , it carries too many passengers
for each to be comfortably accommodated , has in it an ample number of other worlds , of all sorts and sizes ; not one shut up in another like a Chinese ball , but cutting and crossing in various directions , cycle and epicycle , orb in orb , ' concentric and excentric , primary and secondary , luminous and opaque , material and mental , geographical , political , ecclesiastical , civil and uncivil ; the old world , the new world , the scientific world , the fashionable
world , the reli gious world , and a world of other worlds ; of many of which the world par excellence knows next to nothing , but concerning which it may profitably be instructed , or else M . Jacotot is a charlatan . One of these worlds , viz ., the Dissenting world , is in the book before us turned inside out , and exposed to the gaze of all other worlds that choose to look , itself included ' ; and that
itself should look into this mirror , which is not indeedheld up to Nature / is very much to be desired . For though we do not concede that these very graphic sketches of Nonconformity amount to any thing like a pictorial demonstration of the utility of Church Establishments , we do believe them to exhibit many important circumstances for the consideration of both the politician and the religionist .
