We welcome alike the word of exhor- tation, the voice of prayer, and the song of praise and thanksgiving, whichever may well up from the " inner fulness " of the devoted heart ; and if at any time words shall be uttered that appear to us to savor not of Hfe but of contention and speculation, while we may feel called upon to speak our own sentiments with freedom, we hope not to be found denying the liberty of speech to others. Some may fear that Hberty 80 unrestricted may lead to disorder and co...nfusion, but we are per suaded that gentleness and forbearance are more potent than o£5cial dictation, and that the instinctive sense of right and wrong, in the breast of even a misguided and obtrusive man, will afford the best safeguard of propriety and order in our assemblies.' As a Yearly Meeting, we disclaim all disciplinary authority, whether over individual members or local Associations. We shall, from time to time, declare our sentiments on such subjects as may demand our atten- tion ; but they will be armed with no other^orce than that which our moral influence may impart, or which may belong to the nature of truth when earnestly and honestly spoken.
