Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Moral and Religious Influences of Autumn: A Sermon, in Three Parts, Preached in Saint Andrew's Church, Montreal, in the Fall of the 1849
The following Sermon was written, and delivered on three several Sabbaths, in the ordinary course of ministerial duty, without the remotest view to its publication. The author is not aware that he has presented any thing new upon the subject or that he has clothed his views in a more attractive garb than others, who have treated the same subject, have presented theirs. He is, therefore, disposed to ascribe the serious impressions, which, (with much satisfaction he has learned, ) the discourse made upon the minds of many who heard it de livered, to the sympathy of their feelings with the pensive aspect of that season - the moral and religious in?uences of which it was designed to illustrate, - than any merit in itself. These im pressions, it is his duty, as it is his earnest desire, to deepen and perpetuate. In the hope, that the publication of the discourse, with the blessing of of God, may contribute to effect this end, he cheerfully complies with the solicitations of several who heard it preached, to present it to the public, even though it be in the imperfect form in which it was originally delivered.
