Text Appearing Before Image:
he mule used in spinning cotton,may be mentioned as an English member; and so mayBuchanan, who introduced infant-schools into that country.Oberlin was a reader of the doctrines, and an ardent NewChurch man was Mouravieff, who brought about the freedom ofthe Russian serfs. Professor Tafelof the University of Got-tingen may be spoken of in Germany as one who edited a newedition of Swedenborg in Latin. Hiram Powers, the sculptor, 472 THE KINGDOM OF GOD IN AMERICA. and his brother in the art, Harman, deserve mention. IsaacPitman, inventor of shorthand-writing, has been recentlyknighted by Queen Victoria for carrying out a principle ofuniversal language which he obtained from his faith. The lateChancellor Chauvenet of St. Louis, the late Professor Theo-philus Parsons of Cambridge, Chief-Justice Albert Mason ofMassachusetts, and many others in the walks of intelligent life,come to mind.

CHAPTER FIFTH. THE CONGREGATIONAL BODY. The Congregationalists, having New England as their orig-inal home in this country, and drawing their inspiration andtraditions from the Puritan and Pilgrim fathers, have alwaysexerted an influence entirely out of proportion to their numeri-cal strength. The Great Awekening of the eighteenth century,so far as connected with the name and work of Jonathan Ed-wards, was largely within the sphere of Congregationalism.Much of the labors of Whitefield and Tennent was also devotedto New England. The record of the work and progress of the Congregationalbody in this country will embrace the following papers:. 1. Congregationalism, by Professor George B. Willcox, D.D. 2. The Congregational Churches, by Rev. Wolcott Calkins,D.D. 3. The American Board of Commissioners for ForeignMissions, by Rev. S. J. Humphrey, D.D. 4. The American Home Missionary Society. 5. The American Missionary Association. SECTION FIRST. Congregationalism. By Professor George B. Will

Licensing edit

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain
This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.
Public domain works must be out of copyright in both the United States and in the source country of the work in order to be hosted on the Commons. If the work is not a U.S. work, the file must have an additional copyright tag indicating the copyright status in the source country.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
This image was taken from Flickr's The Commons. The uploading organization may have various reasons for determining that no known copyright restrictions exist, such as:
  1. The copyright is in the public domain because it has expired;
  2. The copyright was injected into the public domain for other reasons, such as failure to adhere to required formalities or conditions;
  3. The institution owns the copyright but is not interested in exercising control; or
  4. The institution has legal rights sufficient to authorize others to use the work without restrictions.
