A gentleman in Paris. superintendent
ofan institution for the instruction of deaf
and dumb children, was asked by friend
to allow him TO put question to one OF
the children, with view to ascertain his
mental improvement. The request be-
ing complied with, he was desired to
write his questions and affix it TO the wall.
q was this :--"Does God reason !" The
child Instantly wrote underneath with his
pencil "God knows and sees every thing.
Reasoning implies doubt and uncertainty
therefore, God does not reason"
