Description:Excerpt from A Weekly Church Newspaper for the Million: A Paper Read at the Church Congress, Plymouth, October, 1876 Now one of the speakers at the Congress who followed me, though evidently with great misgiving as to the soundness of his advice, pro posed that the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge should take the matter up, -i can only say, that if they do, it will infallibly be a failure, for putting aside for the moment the certainty that the paper Would be of that uninteresting type which could not possibly find favour with the classes whom I desire to reach, they would never be able to resist the temptation of printing in a conspicuous part of it, published BY the society for promoting christian knowledge, which notice, even if the paper were everything that could be desired, would be quite deci sive against its ever being bought by the persons for Whose especial benefit it is intended. Another speaker expressed his opinion that my scheme was Utopian, I can only say that it is Utopian in no other sense than that it may be Utopian, I am grieved to think, to expect churchmen to move in a matter that so deeply concerns them but if instead of only reading newspapers, &c. Of their own views, they would now and then buy some of those that circulate amongst the above-named classes, they would, I think, awaken a little to what is going on in a different world from their own; - for I believe that there is not one in a thousand who has ever seen any of these papers, and perhaps never even heard of their names, and they would then see that the end at which these violent opponents of the church are aiming, is not only the destruction of the church, but of all property; for they think that if they can but get rid of her, as being the great obstacle in their way, the rest will certainly follow. I commend therefore my scheme not only to Churchmen as such, but to all lovers of order. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
