The wide extenfion of our religious, moral, and political principles, conftitutes the primary object of our efforts, the grand end of our wishes; and the only theme of our exultation. But we have not merely brought our work to the clofe of a volume; we have arrived at the close of a century; at an æra, too, ftrongly marked by every circumftance which can rouze attention, create alarm, infpire awe, ftimulate exertion, and lead to REFLECTION! At fuch a momentous crifis we would fain take a curfory view of the political and moral ftate of fociety, in every part of the civilized globe ;'tis an enquiry well worthy the deepest investigation ;-but, unhappily, our limits preclude the attempt.-Some few remarks, however, on the actual state and difpofition of those nations and potentates, whofe friendship or enmity may have an influence on the fate of our own country, will not, we conceive, be unacceptable to our readers;-they will ferve, too, as a fubftitute for our political fummary; and as the best preface to the prefent volume of our work. FRANCE. Much as divines have preached, moralifts have expatiated, and hiftorians have written, on the nutabilty of fortune and the viciffitudes of human life, the diverfified events of the French Revolution, and the ftrange incidents and deplorable calamities which have arifen out of it, have greatly exceeded all that has been printed or uttered upon this melancholy subject.-In France, we have witneffed a nation, rejecting the wisdom of experience, which the Sages of ancient and modern times, had ever received as their beft guide in worldly affairs; openly trampling under foot, not only the moft folemn treaties, between one state and another, which the rulers of every country had profeffed, at least, to refpect, but even the whole code of public laws, which had, for ages, regulated the conduct of all the nations of Europe; not only burfting through every political barrier which tends to the prefervation of order in fociety, and is effential to the well-being of civiA 2 lized |
