ADDRESS .
The Editor hopes that the further alteration made this month in the Unitarian Chronicle will be acceptable . The present page and type would have been adopted in the preceding Number , if he had been aware that iii reducing the double columns to a glain page , so heavy a mass of letter-press would have been presented
to his readers . He has no intention to make other changes * unless some unanticipated strong necessity should arise for so doing . He loves not novelty for its own sake ; He deems that good is to be done most effectually by preserving a steady onward course * in an accustomed * path . He has sufficiently shown that he can adopt what is new , if it should promise advantage that the old does not possess .
The Unitarian Chronicle owes- its birth and nurture to the Monthly ^ Repository . To that publication it records Its gratitude for its existence , and that it was permitted to grow up as its Companion . ' If now it ventures independently into the world , it is that it may fulfil its own separate duties , and take such a station as its own merits may entitle it to , and its own industry secure . The Editor returns his best thanks to the several
correspondents of the Monthly Repository , who have kindly permitted their papers to be transferred to the Unitarian Chronicle , and is bold to hope that they will favour him with further communication . He intends the Chronicle still to be a record of passing events , interesting to the Unitarian public ; but at the same time , a medium for the communication of such other articles as are calculated to advance the cause of pure and undefined religion .
There is abundant work to be performed in the Master ' s vineyard , and different orders of labourers are required . While the pastor assembles his flock on the day of rest , visits them at their homes , attracts the young by his gentleness , engages their sympathies towards himselfand the holy cause of ^^ which he is the servant , and assists in opening their minds to the perception of the truth , beauty , and excellence of the gospel , and to the glory of him whom the Father sanctified , and sent into the world to proclaim
it unto men—while the missionary labours in his still more arduous vocation , among heathen tribes , in lands of superstition and darkness ; or among the miserable outcasts of Christian countries , whom destitution , ignorance , and wickedness cut off from
