INDEX TO SUBJECTS.

"I look upon every true thought as a valuable acquisition to society,
which cannot possibly hurt or obstruct the good effect of any other truth
whatsoever; for they all partake of one common essence, and necessarily coin-
cide with each other; and, like the drops of rain which fall separately into
the river, mix themselves at once with the stream, and strengthen the
general current."
DR. MIDDLETON.
