Excerpt from The Reformed Quarterly Review, 1890, Vol. 37 IN entering upon the science of Ethics, which we may define in most general terms the science of the Good, we pro pose as an Introduction a consideration of humanity, viewed as general and individual. As man is the subject concerned in this science, particularly in reference to his ethical nature, it is highly important, as throwing light upon the whole theme, to have a right conception of what he is in his relation both to the world of nature below him and to the spiritual world above him, to both which he is organically joined, both in his generic and individual life.

Excerpt from The Reformed Quarterly Review, 1887, Vol. 34 IT has been thought proper to insert the following addresses in this review, because Dr. Nevin was its first editor. The review was called into existence in the early days of the history of our institutions at Mercersburg. The founding of the first college and seminary was an event of great significance for the Reformed Church. It naturally called forth a great deal of interest throughout the church. These institutions were to be come both the centre and exponent of her life and spirit. It soon began to appear that the church had a life as well as a history of its own which could not be a mere copy of any other church.

Excerpt from The Reformed Quarterly Review, 1884, Vol. 31 After referring to the marked reticence of the New Testament in reference to little children, and quoting an important passage bearing upon the question of their salvation (mark 10 13 the article proceeds to give a succinct historical review of the doctrine held by Augustine and the Roman Church, by the Reformers, but especially by the Calvinistic theologians of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Augustine connected salvation mechanically with the sacrament of baptism, and drew the inference that unbaptized infants were lost, though their punishment was of the mildest sort, -the loss of heaven rather than the torment of hell. The doctrine of Augustine became the doctrine of the Roman Catholic church, and has reigned in that communion, without essential modification, to the present time.

Excerpt from The Reformed Quarterly Review, Vol. 42 IT was a happy thought that with the exposition of the world's intellectual and industrial life, in connection with this celebration of the fourth centennial of the discovery of America, there should be joined also an exposition of the nature and character of the various religious organizations of the world, and especially of those of this country. And it is a happy co incidence that this exposition occurs during the present year, during which we of the Reformed Church are celebrating the centennial of our independent existence in this country, when it is particularly fitting that we should give an account of our selves and of our standing as a Christian denomination, both to ourselves and to the religious world around os.

Excerpt from The Reformed Quarterly Review, 1892, Vol. 39 Again, it may be objected to the plan on the ground that the synodical Bishop might abuse his trust; might be tyran nicgl in the exercise of his authority that he might be partial.
