The inner s ide of every cloud Is bright and shining ; I therefore turn my clouds about, And always wear them inside out To show the lining.
MISSIONARY PESSIMISM.
[I ASSURE you that, whatever you may hold to the contrary, the teaching of Christianity among millions of civilized indus- trious Hindus and Mohammedans in India, is effecting changes, moral, social, and political, which for extent and rapidity of ef...fect are far more extraordinary than anything you or your fathers have witnessed in modern Europe. SIR BARTLE FRERE. ] NEARLY all Orientals are pessimists. Their golden age lies in the past. The causes of this feeling may be easily traced. The strenuous life, contingent upon unfriendly environments, with over-population and general poverty, induces despondency and despair, and out of these are evolved religions emphasizing the evils of life. To nearly all old countries there has come the exhaustion of age, resulting in a sense of failure, -and predisposing to brooding meditation and to morbid xloubt as to the ultimate issue of the struggle with nature, and to a growing consciousness of the dispro- portion between desires and attainment.
