The Editor, however, flatters himfeif that this publication will po fie Is fotne advantages over thofethat arc only ifitted month Iy, in furtufhing early religious intelligence, and he hopes it will afford greater fatisfatlion to readers in general, as in fueh works die fame tubjetls andac. counts are contit tied in a ieries of numbers. But (ince this woik is to he d .voted to the intcrell of re!i ''gum, both in its doctrine and experience, and will likcwife in elude the fubjc6t of morality, vc think it entitled to the grea ter attention; and wewifh it to he difiinbtlv under Hood, that a> it has for its object the ditlu lion of religious information, the fuhjeft of potiiici will not be introduced. In the leriptiite sense of the term, embraces not on ly what we aie to believe, but more efpeciallv what we muff i x erience of its great truths in our hearts. Morality implies, not on’y that men should do no harm, but that they should be actively and zealoufiy engaged in atl* of benevolence Sc works ol right*oufnefv. It would then appear that religion conlitts in what we believe Sc experience, and morality it* that faith and expeiience reduced into prac. tice.
