About the Book

And the first thing that I shall advance, is the fact that Reform, if not an innate, is at least an indwelling principle in the soul of every man. There lies there a presentiment, often dim and unheeded, it may be, yet a presentiment of something better, an idea of a greater good to be obtained, which renders him dissatisfi...
