value. In 1840 she published in the Biblical Repository an article on Free Agency, which has been acknowledged by competent critics as the ablest refutation of Edwards on The will which has appeared. An amusing incident connected with this publication may not be out of place here. A certain eminent theological professor of New England, visiting a distinguished German theologian and speaking of this production, said: The ablest refutation of Edwards on The Will which was ever written is the work of a woman, the daughter of Dr. Lyman Beecher. The worthy Teuton raised both hands in undisguised astonishment. You have a woman that can write an able refutation of Edwards on The Will ? God forgive Christopher Columbus for discovering America! Not finding herself able to love a God whom she thought of in her own language as a perfectly happy being, unmoved by my sorrows or tears, and looking upon me only with dislike and aversion, she determined to find happiness in living to do go

this long, flowery summer, with its procession of blooms and fruit, has been running on at the same time with the snowbanks and sleet storms of the North. But so it is. It is now the first of May. Strawberries and blackberries are over with us; oranges are in a waning condition, few and far between. Now we are going North to begin another summer, and have roses, strawberries, blackberries, and green peas come again. I am glad to hear of your reading. The effect produced on you by Jonathan Edwards is very similar to that produced on me when I took the same mental bath. His was a mind whose grasp and intensity you cannot help feeling. He was a poet in the intensity of his conceptions, and some of his sermons are more terrible than Dante's Inferno.
