Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anecdotes, Religious, Moral, and Entertaining: Alphabetically Arranged, and Interspersed With a Variety of Useful Observations The reader will evidently see that novelty has not been so much my design as utility. If any object, however, to the Work on this account, I can only say in reply, that Anecdotes cannot be made. In writing on any system, invention may be displayed: and the ideas of the author may bear the air of novelty; but in a Work of this kind we must confine ourselves to our materials. Iown it is not difficult to find, new and then, an original Anecdote; but, in this age of writing and publishing, it would be very difficult indeed to find a volume of them, since almost every thing of importance is speedily conveyed to the press for the public benefit. 'we must, therefore, take them as we find them, and make the best improvement of them we can. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of a Dedicated Life Among the youth pursuing their studies at Princeton, in the year 1834, there were a few, who regularly met weekly, for religious improvement. Their association was called the Philadelphian Society, from its purpose to pro mote the feeling of Christian brotherhood in its members and through them among mankind. Singly, or in commit tees, they collected information of the moral and religious condition of their own and other countries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Religious Anecdotes of Scotland There has been of late a great desire to enter upon the study, more or less minutely, of the particulars of individual lives. This has risen, in the main, from a motive worthy of all praise. It has been said that the proper study of mankind is man, and in harmony -with this idea, the desire has been developed, to know the details of the lives of those who have really lived, and who have made an impression on the minds of their contemporaries. Hence the numerous biographies, and volumes similar to the present, which have made their appearance. It is somewhat difficult to define an Anecdote, and yet most people know it when it is placed before them. The word anecdote does not now bear its original significance, which was a secret history, something unedited and unpublished. On the contrary it means the reverse of this. It is not a story, nor a description, nor yet a connected series of stories. Taken, in its manifest and more correct form, as now understood, it is a particular, separated incident, of an interesting nature, which is a complete unity in itself. It thus presents a complete mental picture, and like pictures generally, is of a nature to arrest attention and instruct. Those who have a cultivated mind can at once discriminate an anecdote from what is like it, and will be able to appreciate what it makes known, while others do not trouble themselves about its nature, but seek to understand what it means. But all have a liking for the detached fact, which makes them feel that they can see deeper into the working of the human soul, and understand the emotions and motives which rule there. This gives the anecdote an attractive power, which culture does not destroy, but refine, and which is common to man as man.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Family Sabbath-Day Miscellany: Comprising Over Three Hundred Religious Tales and Anecdotes A few of the pieces, which make up the present volume, are original, as are also the reflections, which occasionally follow other pieces; but the work is chiefly a compilation, consisting of Tales and Anecdotes, which have been collected from various sources, with reference to a particular object - viz. An interesting and ih structive book for the Sabbath. No article, not decidedly moral and religious in its tendency, has been intentionally admitted. Of course, however, among such a variety of anecdotes, not every one can be expected to possess the same merit, nor have the same adaptation. The Author has not even attempted to give, the names of the authors of the several articles, as many of them were found to be anonymous; nor has he indicated the sources whence they are de rived, as ia numerous instances, the original publications, in which they appeared, could not be ascertained. Suffice it to say, that during many a long ramble, and diligent search, he has culled whatever seemed auxiliary to his purpose - a choice collection, adapted to family reading on the Sabbath.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anecdotes of Christian Missions Having been honored with the appointment of Secretary to the Southern Board of Missions, the compiler sought to qualify himself for the station by searching the records of past years, in quest of missionary intelligence. He was richly rewarded for this toil by the diversified facts that were found to illustrate, in ample profusion, the various features of the missionary enterprize. He was not unwilling to receive the suggestion of throwing together in this manner a body of anecdotes or illustrations of Christian missions. The following statements are not vague and unauthenticated stories, that have acquired bulk and embellishment in passing from hand to hand, till they are fitted only to amaze the credulous. They are traced in all instances to a respectable source, and are made public as facts deserving entire confidence.
