To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Pei'sonally, it will behoove you to pa}' quite as much heed to the quality of newspaper placed upon your stoop, as to the quality of meat brought by your butcher, and to sc;m more keenly the platitudes and sopliistries ^Yith which the editor dilutes his articles, than the watery illusions Avliich the milkman puts into his "cries" and cans. Publicly, there is an obligation on us all, to know the world in which we live, — the age hi which we iind the world, 8ueh an obligation, devolved primarily ...upon individu- als, is enforced upon comnmnities. In society and the Church, and especially under a goverinnent like our own, no man, who fails of his puldic principles, can mature his private character. Alike Christianity in its re- quirements, and Humanity in its prospects, will call for men of Issachar, who have understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do. Now there are two ways, in either of which this knowledge may be forfeited. The one, by insensibility to passing events; the other, by vehemence and preju- dice under their spells.
