AND MODERN OPINION. .SEVEN SERMONS PREACHED IN NEW-YORK BY CLERGYMEN OF THE PROTESTANT EPISCOPAL CHURCH. NEW-YORK THOMAS WHITTAKER, Entered, according to Act of Congress, in the year 1874, BY THOMAS WHITTAKER, in the Office of the Librarian of Congress, at Washington. PREFACE. THE following Course of Sermons was given the last winter, under the auspices of an association of clergymen in the Episcopal Church. There will be found such an order in the topics, and such essential agreement in the line of Christian thought, as to give them place in one volume; yet each author has freely written his own convictions, and is alone responsible for his sermon. It is hoped that the publication may do somewhat toward that harmony of Christian faith with science, which is no dream, but one of the most real aims of all scholars in our one-sided time.
