Cowper is the most important English poet of the period between Pope and the illustrious group headed by Wordsworth, Byron, and Shelley, which arose out of the intellectual ferment of the European Revolution. As a reformer of poetry, who called it back from conventionality to nature, and at the same time as the teacher of a new school of sentiment which acted as a solvent upon the existing moral and social system, he may perhaps himself be numbered among the precursors of the revolution, though he was certainly the mildest of them all. As a sentimentalist he presents a faint analogy to Rousseau, whom in natural temperament he somewhat resembled.

The letters collected in this volume appeared, with others, in the New York Sun, to the Editor of which the thanks of the writer for his courtesy are due. Appended is a paper on the same subjects commenting on one by the late Mr. Chamberlain, since published in the North American Review. To the Editor of the North American Review also the writer's acknowledgments are due. There appeared to be sufficient interest in the discussion to call for the publication of a small edition. The age calls for religious truth. Nine thousand persons communicated their cravings to the Editor of the London Daily Telegraph. By their side the present writer places himself, not a teacher, but an inquirer, seeking for truth and open to conviction. The position of the clergy, especially where tests are stringent, calls for our utmost consideration. But I submit that it would not be improved by any attempt, such as seems to be made in a work of great ability before me, to merge the theological in the social question. Benevolence may still be far below the Gospel mark, and the Christian faith may suffer from its default. But the increase of it and the multiplication of its monuments since the world has been comparatively at peace cannot be denied; while of the distress which still calls for an increase of Christian effort, not the whole is due to default on the part of the wealthier classes. Idleness, vice, intemperance, improvident marriage, play their part. Let us not be led away upon a false issue. There is nothing for it but truth.

"The rapid growth of the French population in the Canadian provinces and the New England States has given rise to much speculation as to the future of the race. Thoughtful men in the Dominion see in its steady increase and aggressive character elements of danger to the stability of the Confederation. The last census returns show that over one third of the population of Canada is of French origin, while in the New England States there is a large and growing French-Canadian element, wedded to its language, religion, and traditions, and controlled to an extraordinary degree by its astute and admirably organized clergy. Quebec, though a province in a British colony, is as thoroughly French as it was before the conquest"...

Loyalty, Aristocracy, and Jingoism: Three Lectures is a collection of three lectures delivered by Goldwin Smith in 1896. The lectures explore the themes of loyalty, aristocracy, and jingoism, and their impact on society and politics. In the first lecture, Smith discusses the concept of loyalty, its historical roots, and its place in modern society. He argues that loyalty is a necessary component of a healthy society, but that blind loyalty can be dangerous and lead to tyranny. In the second lecture, Smith examines the role of aristocracy in society, particularly in the context of the British aristocracy. He argues that while aristocracy can be a force for good, it can also be a hindrance to progress and social mobility. He suggests that a balance must be struck between aristocracy and democracy in order to create a just and stable society. In the final lecture, Smith discusses jingoism, which he defines as an excessive and aggressive patriotism. He argues that jingoism can be dangerous and lead to war and conflict, and that it is important for nations to avoid it. He suggests that a more moderate and rational approach to patriotism is necessary for peace and stability. Overall, Loyalty, Aristocracy, and Jingoism: Three Lectures is a thought-provoking exploration of important themes in politics and society, and offers insights that are still relevant today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
