daunted by the resistance of adversaries, undis-
mayed by the obstructions which the bias of pre-
judice, or the conflicts of faction, or the strife of
controversy, raise to impede social progress or to
retard, its friends lift up their view to the loftier
heights where religious and moral truth sheds an
eternal light. Piercing the darkness of ignorance
that shrouds our region, the mists of doubts that
instinct
of the storms of passion that vex, the
of selfishness that chills another, the eye loves to
repose on that bright summit where the same beams
dispel all doubt from our opinions towards God,
and warm our benevolent feelings towards men—
" As some tall cliff that lifts its awful form,
Swells from the vale, and midway leaves the storm;
Though round its breast the rolling clouds are spread,
Eternal sunshine settles on its head."
The noble lord, who had been repeatedly inter-
rupted by applause, resumed his seat amidst pro-
longed cheering.
The assembly was afterwards addressed by Lord
J. Russell, who moved a resolution to the effect
that the association be now formed. This was
seconded by the Right Hon. W. Cowper; supported
by G. M. Hill, Q. C., and carried.
Thanks were voted to Lord Brougham, and briefly
acknowledged ; after which the meeting dispersed.
