Greenwood opposes the admission of evidence from other academies. A man might think that, however much the quality of the teaching varied in various free schools, the nominal curriculum would be fairly uniform.

The young English gentleman, clear against Barberina's Prussian scheme, passionately opposes the same, passionately renews his own offers; induces Barberina to inform the Prussian agent that she renounces her engagement in that quarter.

Facts speak for themselves and conquer what opposes them no matter what traditions bolster it up. The refuge which Christianity has taken is the usual one resorted to by religions which find themselves in conflict with views more adequate than those they hold.
