I have examined, I havo doubted, I havo believed that the human mind had power enough to solve tho problems pro sented by man and by tho universe, and that tho human will had forco enough lo regulate human life according to tho dictates of law and morality. After a long life spent iu thought and action, I became, and am still convinced that nei ther the universe is competent to regu late its own movements nor man to gov- rn his own destiny by means only ot the permanent laws by which they aro or dered. It is my profound conviction that God, who created this universe and man, governs, preserves and modifies them either by tho action of general laws, which we call natural, or by spc cial acts which wo call supernatural, and which, ns well as tho general laws, aro the emanations of His free aud perfect wisdom and His infinite power. We aro permitted to discern them iu their cf lects, and forbidden to understand them n their essence and design. I have therefore returned to the faith of my childhood. I am still firmly attached to he uso of my reason and to tho freewill which aro tho gifts from God, and my birthright and my titlo of honor upon earth; yet I have learned to feel myself a child in tho hands ol Uod, and sincerely resigned to my large share ot ignorance and weakness.

I bow beforo tho mysteries of the Bible aud tho gospel, and I refrain from the discussions nnd scientific solutions by means of which men have tried to ex plain them. I havo a firm faith that God allows me to call myself a Christian; and I nm convinced that when 1 shall, as will soon be my lot, enter into tho full light of day, I shall seo how purely iiiman is tuo origin, and how vnm aro most of the discussions in this world con cerning things which aro divine.

And this would have been a first step in the formation of a language." But such theories aro too weak for our iicceptance.
