Excerpt from Lectures and Discourses There is, I think, a unity of thought and design in the Lectures and Dis courses herewith published which the titles they severally bear might fail to make plain. The causes which render men irreligious or indifferent to religion are in general not rational or intellectual, and are never wholly so; and this is the thought which has guided me in the lecture on Religious Indifference. In the discourse which follows I have made a brief survey of the controversy between Religion and Science, in which the causes of unbelief are considered from a more exclusively intellectual point of view. The lecture on God and Christ is preliminary and introductory to the statement and enforcement of Catholic Truth, which is the subject-matter of the discourses that follow.

Excerpt from Discourses The contents of the following volume divide themselves into two sections of unequal size. The first, and the smallest of these, consisting of the three first papers, is from the pen of the Author; the last contains mere reports of lectures delivered by him. All have been in print before, but he first gathered them together and put them in an accessible form to the public a year or two ago, When the present volume was printed; and it is believed that to almost all but his immediate friends its contents are entirely new. Whether he would have expended health and leisure, had he possessed them, in recasting addresses Which in their actual form must retain something of the unsuitableness of any utterance designed for the eat, but meeting the eye, can never be decided now; what is certain is, that he had not the opportunity of doing so. The duties of a college course, and the frequent interruptions of bad health, delayed the. Publication of the work for several years, deferring even the few words of preface which he hoped to write, of which his death, on the 12th of January, 1866, has deprived us for ever.

Excerpt from Sermons and Discourses, Vol. 1 The Discourses contained in this Volume are a few of those preached by the Author in the course of his ministry. He publishes them, some what against his own judgment, in deference to the urgent request of some whose Opinion is en titled to his regard. The reception accorded to a few of them, issued in pamphlet form, would seem to justify their advice. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
