The perfect justice of this remark will, we trust, be made to appear the more clearly and fully in the course of the following section of the present work. Section II. The Scripture doctrine of election consistent with the impartiality of the divine goodness.

The Calf, I supposed, shall bid stars and moon to appear, while Thou makest the sun to rise; Thou shalt send the dew and he will cause the wind to blow; Thou shalt send down the rain, and he shall bid the plants to grow."

It would appear to have been easy enough for a boy to get an education; harder for a girl. Ibid., Les Bourgeois, 369. Marmontel, i. 16. Montbarey, i. 280. In the eighteenth century great changes were taking place in the national life. Simple artisans presumed to be more comfortable in 1789 than the first people of the town had been fifty years before.

With some parents, although they are neither harsh nor hard in manner, nor yet unloving in nature, the habitual first impulse seems to be to refuse: they appear to have a singular obtuseness to the fact that it is, or can be, of any consequence to a child whether it does or does not do the thing it desires.

It would appear that long practice had made each of the two acquainted with his particular duty; for neither sign nor direction of any sort was necessary from Ishmael, in order to apprise his surly associate of the manner in which he was to proceed.
