I cali that mind free, which seis no bounds to iís love, which is not imprisoned in itself or in a sect, which recognizes in all human beings the image of God and the rights of his children; which delights in virtue, and sympathises withsufferings, whercver they are seen, which conquere pride, anger, and sloth, and offers itself up a willing victimto the cause of mankind. Icall that mind free, which is notpassively framed by ontward circumstances, which is not swepi away by the torrent of events, which is not the crcature of accidental impulse, but which bends events to its own improvement, and acts upon an inward spring, from im mutable principies which it has denberately espoused. I cali that mind Cree, which protects ifself against the usurpations of society, which does not cower to human opinions which feel itself accountable toa higher law than fashion. which respects itself too much to be the slave or tooi of the roany or the few.- Dr. Clianning.
