EDITORIAL NOTE
The Editors have much pleasure in issuing this
brief but luminous account of the non-Christian
Religions of the "World from the pen of the
learned Principal of Queen's University, Canadar
It was a gratification to them when he undertook
the work at the request of a Committee of his
Mother-Church, and they feel that there is reason
for congratulation on the mannerin whiohthetask
has been accomplished. Severe condei sation has
been necessary in order to treat such a subject
within the linuts prescribed, but the Editors are
gladto think that this hasnotperceptiblyimpsdred
the charm and vigour of the writer's style, and
they anticipate for the book a warm welcomefrom
the intelligent and large-hearted youth on both
sides of the Atlantic, who fed an interest in the
life and thought of the countless millions of their
fellow-men that are still beyond the pale of the
Christian Church.
