A GREAT NEED.

By Mark Hopkins

NEVER was there a time in the history of our world when moral heroes were needed more than now. The world waits for such, and the providence of God has commanded science to labor, and prepare the way for such. For them she is laying her iron tracks, and stretching her wires, and bridging the oceans, but where are they? Who will breath the breath of a higher life? Who will touch the life of a paganized science and of a pantheistic philosophy, that they may see and know God? Who will consecrate to the glory of God the triumphs of science? Who will bear the life-boat to the stranded and perishing nations? —Mark Hopkins.
