Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. I owe this opportunity of issuing another edition (3. Small one) of the present work to a request for copies from a friend, whose name is inseparably associated with the progress of Liberal and earnest thought in connection with the Christian religion in this country, and especially in the West, and who has by his own published works cast new.
