rival nations, of raising the pacific crosier between the swords of warring sovereigns, and checking alike the fury of the barbarian and the vengeance of the despot.

Unity of design is a beauty in literary compositions and in the works of art; it is essential to political combinations, and may surely be allowed to be both useful and becoming in ecclesiastical institutions. To attain this advantage a Head is necessary. How many evils in reality does not the appointment of a chief Pastor, and a centre of union prevent, by repressing alike episcopal pride, popular enthusiasm, and national superstition; by holding up to view constantly a regular rule both of doctrine and of discipline, and thus supporting that uniformity which tends to make all Christendom one vast republic, divided indeed into different provinces, but united by so many ties, so many sacred bonds of religion, of manners, of opinions, and even of prejudices, as to resemble the members of one immense family. But whether these ideas be the result of prejudice, or the dictates of reason, the reader will determine according to his own judgment.
