CHRISTIAN MORALS

Hanna Moore, in her late work entitled “Christian Morals,” concludes some very salutary remarks on the Bible Society of England, in the following words :— “It is indeed a spectacle to warm the coldest and soften the hardiest heart, to behold men of the first rank and talents, statesmen who have never met but to oppose each other, orators who have never spoken but to differ, each strenuous in what it is presumed he believes right, renouncing every interfering interest, sacrificing every jarring opinion, forgetting all in which they differed, and thinking only on that in which they agree; each reconciled to his brother, and leaving his gift at the altar, offering up every resentment at the foot of the Cross! There might be two opinions how men should be governed; there can be but one—whether they should be saved.”
