It will suffice therefore to say that the idea of God is not an innate, but an acquired notion; that it is the very nature of this notion to vary from age to age; to differ in one country from another; to be viewed variously by individuals. What do I say? It is, in fact, an idea hardly ever constant in the same mortal.
What are its merits will be decided in the judgment of each reader; suffice it to say she appears to have stept forth boldly, and singly, in defence of that half of the human race, which by the usages of all society, whether savage or civilized, have been kept from attaining their proper dignity their equal rank as rational beings.
The catastrophe happened many years ago probably at least a hundred yet the messenger who brought the news has not been idle on his way, but has sped along at a rate which would suffice to circle this earth eight times in the course of a second.

One specimen of these annoyances and of Marlborough's mode of dealing with them may suffice.

All else is gone. And what wrought the change? a few words will suffice to tell. Some travelling fur merchants brought the news to Donald Maxwell, that a party of Highlanders had made a settlement above Montreal, and among them were some of his kindred.
"There were three I had no chance Gas coigne " "Strange name not French?" The dying man shook his head. "Gasc tell Engl " It was the last supreme effort. With a long, deep groan, the poor fellow fell back dead. "How unfortunate!" cried the commissary, "to die just when he would have told us all.
