THE FATHERS.

"WE should be cautious how we appeal to heathens, however eminent, in behalf of morality; because much may be collected from them on the other side.
In like manner we should take heed how we quote the Fathers in proof of the doctrines of the gospel; because he who knows them best, knows that on many of those subjects, they blow hot and cold."—Autobiography of Adam Clarke, p. 134 Book III.
