Excerpt from Essays on Various Subjects, Vol. 2 of 6 Christian will express in his words a character of zeal and love (p. 9 and becomes doubly inter esting from seeing how, after having, through one hundred and fifteen pages, called Catholics in every line idolaters, and us of the priesthood cheats, you feelingly and movingly complain, with what injustice the Church of Rome charges her younger sister, the Protestant Church, with heresy! (p. Little was I prepared for such gentle, fondling expostulation as this; little could I have thought that you held the right calling of names to be so exclusive a monopoly; or that you cared about being considered a heretic by idolaters, or claimed any compassion at our hands. But, Sir, allow me to say, that in the publications of Catholics, or in their sermons, you will not find the name of heretic applied to Protestants, however we may consider their doc trines heretical, - and observe there is a great difference between the two while you in every page of your work call us personally idolaters; and that were any one among us to call down the fire of heaven - as you have done - upon any of our fellow-subjects, we should say to him, as was said to others of old Ye know not of whose spirit ye are.

Excerpt from Essays on Various Subjects, Vol. 2 of 3 IN preparing this collection for publication, the reader may well suppose, that this thought must have presented itself to the writer's mind: Would it not be better to suppress the whole of this controversy, which occupies this volume, as dead and gone; as either having attained its purpose, or not likely now any longer to attain it? Such a thought was natural, and connected with other feelings, of which I may have to speak. But it was necessarily overruled by the motive of the entire work. Those persons, whose judgment I respect more than my own, who wished such a collection to be made, particularly desired that this series should not be omitted. The strongest objection to be overcome in acceding to this wish was, the painfulness of appearing in con flict with persons who are now joined with me in perfect unity of thought and principle, of many whom I respect and even venerate for their learning, their piety, and their orthodox zeal. But this consideration had its other side. For it may not be without its use to see how those who once clung to error through earnest conviction, who defended their mistaken views with erudition and ability, but who, throughout, showed themselves sincere in the desire to attain truth, could nobly abandon that erroneous system, when the moment of Grace arrived, and become far more powerful advocates than their former adversary.

Excerpt from Essays on Various Subjects, Vol. 4 of 6 Art. V. - Remains of the late Reverend Richard H. Froude, M. A., Fellow of Oriel College, Oxford. Vol. ii London: 1838. It is not often that the leaders of opinions let the public into a view of their secret counsels and feelings; but when they do, we think it does credit to the uprightness and sincerity of their intentions. It shows that they wish us to be acquainted with the hidden springs of their actions and even to peer behind the veil which generally conceals the man from our sight, while we are viewing only his productions. Nay, the more unreservedly the human weaknesses of the individuals are revealed, and the more the feeling is expressed, that with their exposure, or in spite of it, their cause will succeed, the more highly we shall estimate their confidence in the correctness of their views, and the disinterestedness of their zeal in propagating them. These reflections have been suggested to us by the perusal of Mr. Froude's remains. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Critical, Historical and Miscellaneous Essays, Vol. 2 of 6 Nothing is more amusing or instructive than to ob serve the manner in which people who think themselves wiser than all the rest Of the world fall into snares which the simple good sense of their neighbours detects and avoids. It is one of the principal tenets of the Utilitarians that sentiment and eloquence serve only to impede the pursuit of truth. They therefore affect a quakerly plainness, or rather a cynical negligence and impurity, of style. The strongest arguments, when clothed in brilliant language, seem to them so much wordy nonsense. In the mean time they surren der their understandings, with a facility found in no other party, to the meanest and most abject sophisms, provided those sophisms come before them disguised with the externals of demonstration. They do not seem to know that logic has its illusions as well as rhet orie, that a fallacy may lurk in a syllogism as well as in a metaphor.

Excerpt from Essays on Various Subjects, Vol. 1 of 6: By His Eminence, Cardinal Wiseman If I owe any apology to my readers for publishing this series of unconnected papers and essays, I must be content to plead the request of many friends, and frequent applications from strangers, to have such a collection made. For, although much of what is now printed with my name originally appeared anonymously, and under the shelter of editorial responsibility, its authorship has been pretty generally known, and never disavowed. This is not uncommon in reviews; and yet there is a convenience in the advantages of such a position; for it enables the writer to speak with a confidence, and sometimes with a boldness, from which he would shrink, if he spoke in his own person, and not as the representative of certain principles, embodied in a collective responsibility. The greater part, in fact, of the essays now presented to the public, have appeared as papers in the Dublin Review and they preserve in this collection their primitive form.
