I have a Veneration for them as good Men, and where their Opinion is a Consequent of true Reason, it ought to be embraced; but where 'tis not, I need not say it ought to be rejected; and I think any Man may be allowed to dispute whether it be so or no. It would indeed be of Reputation to the Councils and Fathers, some of them at least, if what were objected against them were of no more force.

V. The church livings shall be, like the dioceses, rearranged; and the curés be appointed by the bishop, but not without the approbation of the government. VI. The French government shall make provision for the prelates and clergy, and the Pope renounces for ever all right to challenge the distribution of church property consequent on the events of the revolutionary period.

So in the mere bodily frame there is a delightful perfection of the senses, consistent with the utmost health of the muscular system, as in the quick sight and hearing of an active savage: another false delicacy of the senses, in the Sybarite, consequent on their over indulgence, until the doubled rose-leaf is painful; and this inconsistent with muscular perfection.

And as the benevolent concern for others is diffused, in a greater or less degree, over all men, and is the same in all, it occurs more frequently in discourse, is cherished by society and conversation, and the blame and approbation, consequent on it, are thereby roused from that lethargy into which they are probably lulled, in solitary and uncultivated nature.

"How can you be so absurd, Smithson! it was her prim old aunt!" There was no more said on the way back to the barracks, much to Dick's satisfaction, for he felt that if the lieutenant spoke he would be compelled to burst out with a roar of laughter in his face.

Later, Harriman, and to some extent Morgan, carried the community of interest idea some steps further.

The havoc of war; the plunder committed by organized and powerful bodies of robbers; the rapacity of government and of its army of officers; the exclusion of foreign goods, and the consequent shutting up of the foreign market; the ignorance of the people as to the best modes of agriculture; and, last of all, the want of capital all these combine to produce squalid poverty in a land which ought to," and, with a good system of popular education, most assuredly would, "ABOUND IN WEALTH."
