These are letters TO a friend, on the
dangers of religious liberty in the pres

the cncroaclsrnent Of the hierarchy upon

that of one who mourns over the appre
hended prospect, and is calculated to en-
list the sympathy Of his reader in be
half of the cause he espouses.
schlegei's Lectures on Modern History.
I This writer is very successful in bury
ing up his ideas in specious verbiage:
and after his meaning is dug out, it
proves to be but common place, and
hardly worth the labor OF exhuming be-
cause common. Pages are devoted to
1.-The beginning of our mans history and
the last revolution of the EARTH
Now what rsvolution does the reader
suppose the author means, the last di-
urnal, or last annural revolution at the
time of his writing? Why neither, he
simply means to give it as his opinion,
that the history of man should properly
begin from the last great conruzsion of the
earth, that is the flood! He brings for
ward the zenduvesta to corroborate the
Mosaic history of man. He is not
German mythic, but is decidedly specu-
lative; for instance he adopts the opinion
that the food was probably the effect of
comet. His early history Of the Ger
mans, the origin of the name, their Gus
toms, &c, his vindication of the charac-
ter of Joan of Arc, who, he says, though
more than once wounded, never shed
blood herself; and was incapable Of any
feminine cruelty the power Of the Por-
tuguese; the fall and rise of Russia re-
ligious schism war and persecution, and
many other points Of interest will be-
guile many moment of the readers
time.
That the reader may Judge whether
misrepresent this great German philoso-
pher, will give him the central idea of
his book He simply tells us. but in the
exalted style of too many of the writers
OF that school, that man is born free
agent, capable of choosing good or evil
had he remained true to the divine will,
his freedom would have been that Of
blessed spirit. But having by disobedi
ence lost this happy estate, the great
problem of each individual now is, to
submit his lower and earthly will to the
divine will, so as to regain paradise.
Whatever errors in speculations his
philosophy may contain, no reasonable
man can call this infidelity or atheism.
Mans true freedom, says he, consists
not only in freedom from outward re-
straint, but from the bondage Of lust
and passions. Is there anything norel or
uncommon here? Is not all this common
place? us the doctrine less common
place, that the voice of conscience is the
inward revelation of God" But enough:
il is clear that Schlegel is not to be rank
ed among the German rationalists, SO
odious to the Orthodox Churches.
