Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Western Quarterly Review, 1849, Vol. 1 We come, therefore, in behalf of personal independence, and ask each to think for himself, feel for himself, and act for himself. Reader, you are good against the world. You have as much right to ask the million to hear you, as the million have to demand your attention. We have no cord to bind you with - no collar of our own construction to place on your neck. Here you may preserve your identity - appear as God made you, and not be compelled to suppress your thoughts or feel ings, and thus in part annihilate yourself. Come, then, as you are - open the fountains of your own Spiritual life, that we may see who you are, and what there is in you, that the world should know. We would not abridge your liberty, and we dare not sit in judgment and condemn you, for you may prove, in the light of that unerring Wisdom which is eternal in the Heavens, far above us in all that is pure and true. The Western Quarterly Review comes also to act a part, in these unsettled times, in the construction of truthful institutions. It shall criticise things as they are, and spare not. It shall ex pose, with an unflinching probe, whatever is believed unsound and untruthful, no matter how consecrated it may be in the affections of its supporters. We only say to them, that the way is Open, the same channel is free to them, to repair, if possible, whatever breach any assault may occasion.
