No a defence is to ho found in timidity, Lot t much defence is to be found in circumspec- I tion. What we have most. to complain of t' is a perceptible rapidity of the question trial, and summary condemnation, which . is perhaps as far removed from reason as e is the grossest of tho superstition it eon- demns. There is a kind of steepltseiuure I philosophy in vogue; sometimes it is spo- t cialism that assumes the honors of university knowledge; and makes 1 short cuts to its conclusion. Sometimes it is that knowledge of external nature is, by I one of the strangest oi solecisms, thought to convey a supreme capacity for judging questions which belong entirely to the sphere of moral action and of moral needs. All this suggests that abnormal causes are lin some degree at work; that besides re- search and:the great modern art of literary criticism, and a useful reaction against usurping traditiiom, there is, so to speak. something of an epidemic in the air.
