Decentralization consists in Civ
inc u fair and deliberate hearing to
opinions, statements, and arguments,
and weighing fairly aud honestly their
tendency. 1t is. therefore, opposed to
prejudice. blind attachment to rrecon-
coiycd opinions, and that narrow dis
putatlous spirit which delights in cap
tious criticism, and will hear nothing
with camnesa that is opposed to its
own views, which distorts or misrep-
resents the sentiments Of its opponents,
ascrihing them to unwesby motives,
or deducing from hem conclusions
which they do not warrant Can
dour, accordingly, may be considered
as a compound of justice and the Dove
of truth. 1T leads us to give due at
tentlon to the opinionsand statements
of othors-in all cose~ to be chiefly
solicitous to discover Ctruth ; ard in
statements of mixed character, con
tanning perhaps much error and fallacy,
anxlously to discover and separate
what is true 1t has accordingly been
remarked, that q turn for acute dlspu-
tatiou9aud minute and rigid criticism,
is often the characteristic Of CON
tracted and preiudiccd mind; and
that the most enlarged understandings
are always tho most irdulgent to The
statements of others--their leading
object being TO discover truth. g. .Iber-

went away; but instead of returning
