Suspicion. — A.ll this suspicion of persons who differ from us, all this persuasion that they are bent on compassing mischief against us, argues a low degree of general education. Far more important than any mastery over the mechanics of knowledge is the acquisition of the lesson that other forms of life, of thought, and of belief, than those we follow and hold, may be honestly entertained by others. The man who acknowledges the force of this truth, at once escapes from the clouded atmosphere of parties and the passions of popular frenzy into the serene atmosphere of rational judgment. — London Times.
