We New-England Congregationalists have learned from our Baptist brethren that the largest liberty for the individul conscience is to be demanded, not dreaded. We have learned from our Methodist brethren, not to be ashamed of emotion in religion, and how to bring more of the gladness of heaven into the services of earth by giving fullest, freest expression to warm, joyous, grateful love. And our Episcopal churches, if they do have bishops and a liturgy, do, in their modes of worship, meet real h...uman needs, and fittingly express human desires. We ought, indeed, to go beyond our fathers in attainment, yet never away from their principles. For, of the character of our Puritan ancestry, a distinguished jurist has truthfully said : " We have no desire, like the nations of the Old World, to deduce our lineage from superhuman beings, or to clothe the sage and heroic spirits, who laid the foundations of our Republic, with the exaggerations of poetic minds. Like the Pantheon at Rome, simple, erect, severe, sublime, the bright atmosphere of truth only irradiates its bold and noble proportions, encumbered by no meretri- cious ornament, heightened by no illusion of fiction.
