) If, then, as he states, a regard to the beneficial tendency of actions, that is, a disposi- tion to promote the general happiness, be unfit as an immediate incentive and guide to right action, does he not in effect admit that this is not the test of virtue ? (It is observable that he says a test, as if he were under the influence of " that sort of reluc- tance and fluctuation, " which he has just ascribed to Brown in the use of the word " perhaps. ") The virtue of an action is in the mind of ...the agent ; it can certainly exist nowhere else, 192 THE CHRISTIAN EXPOSITION moral rectitude into a principle of general benevolence, should be favourably received and though we explore the universe in search of it ; and if a regard to beneficial tendency be not essential to virtue, and even unfit as a present motive and guide of right action, then " beneficial tendency" may indeed be a constant property of virtuous actions, but it cannot be that property which discovers and proves them to be virtuous.
