Indeed, begin to despair of their efficacy anywhere over the human heart. But 442 CHRISTIANITY THE GREAT REMEDY Heaven forbid, that we should accept this as the predestined and unalterable current of history in all time to come ! Why, why shall not the influence of religion be sought for, and be found, in the councils of princes, in the debates and resolutions of popular assemblies, in the conduct of governments towards their subjects and towards one another ?
