1 the French revolution evidence the guilt and crime^ in which a nation may be involved, by having light and freedom put into its possession, before it is prepared to receive them. Monarchs and their hosts are but instruments in the hands of Providence ; destined to check the rapidity, not forever to terminate the intel- lectual progress, of our species. To be effectual and permanent, this advance must be slow. Fetters must be broken off, by degrees, from nations, which have been, for ages, in ...chains. Light must be poured gradually upon the eye, which is first introduced to the day. This is the law of our nature. This is the course of Providence. It is impossible not to perceive, that the extension of these influences, among the mass of mankind, must, even in Europe, tend to diminish the recurrence of war, not only from the reasons and consequences, already urged, but also from the actual state of Euro- pean soldiery ; the necessary result of their education, their habits and their relations to society.
