It is, ui fact, about the only thing some of us are afraid of. A complimentary falsehood is frequently more soothing to our feeling than the most honestly and candidly spoken words that were ever uttered. The human intellect has had placed bu- forc it by Him who lanO it one object, and one only, worthy of its efforts, and that is truth. Truth, not only for the sake of any ulterior dignity, however high or holy, but truth for its own sake. We hope, we trust, we humbly believe, that truth will in the end be found to co- incide with goodness, with holiness, With grace, with humility, with all the other noblest aspirations of the human spirit.
