"VALUE RECEIVED."

The doctrine of Depravity divides society into regenerate and un-regenerate —saints and sinners. The doctrine of Dignity classifies all people as p ssible saints. The doctrine of Development abolishes both saint and sinner, and sub stitutes human creatures in the infinite stages of their immaturity. It declares every sinner to be a partial saint, every saint to be a partial sinner. It sub stitutes qualities for attributes, gains for gifts, acquisitions for endowments, and distributes them impartially among man kind. It takes a portion of the iniquity from Henry VIII., and bestows it on the lords and ladies of his not too virtuous Court. Imperfection in all creatures is its motto. All who come up out of the same dust, live' under the same general influences, share the same general ex periences, meet life on the same plane, reap the same field of experience, have with multitudious special variations the same essential characteristics. Each age has its virtues and vices, from both of which none of its children are wholly exempt. — Frothingham.
