Excerpt from Library of Universal History and Popular Science, Vol. 25 of 25: Containing a Record of the Human Race From the Earliest Historical Period to the Present Time
Being myself naturally rather prone to suffer from low spirits, I have at several of these gatherings taken the Opportunity Of dwelling on the privi leges and blessings we enjoy, and I reprint here the substance Of some of these addresses (omitting what was special to the circumstances Of each case, and freely making any altera tions and additions which have since occurred to me), hoping that the thoughts and quotations in which I have myself found most comfort may perhaps be Of use to others also.
It is hardly necessary to say that I have not by any means referred to all the sources of happiness Open to us, some indeed Of the greatest pleasures and blessings being altogether omit ted.
