Excerpt from A Discourse: Delivered at the Dedication of the Chapel, Built by the Church of the Disciples, Wednesday, March 15, 1848 Church - as it was - as it is - as it ought to be - this subject becomes more and more interesting every year. The tendency of the age draws our minds to ward it; for in all things the present century tends toward union, harmony, synthesis, as plainly as the last century tended to division, individualism, analysis. We see this in the material world, in those inventions which make the inhabitants of the Atlantic coast a neighbor to the dweller on the Andes.
