POPULAR TRACTS. LET us inquire! what mighty consequences are involved in these little words! whither have they not led! To what are they not destined to lead? Before them thrones have given way. Hierarchies have fallen, dungeons have disclosed their secrets. Iron bars, and iron laws, and more iron prejudices have given way; the prison house of the mind hath burst its fetters; science disclosed her treasures; truth her moral beauties; and civil liberty, sheathing her conquering sword, hath prepared to sit down in peace at the feet of knowledge.-Popular Lectures, by Frances Wright.
