Excerpt from The Veracity and Divine Authority of the Pentateuch Vindicated: In a Critical Examination of Dr. Colenso's Book The tremendous explosive shell, of which we have heard so much as being about to be fired against the sides of the Church, has at length? Descended; not, indeed, upon the Church's deck, nor yet against her hull, neither of which are likely to sustain much damage from the operation, but into the water, where it has burst, and is making a horrible hissing noise. In its character and effects it bears a strong resemblance to Captain Warner's famous long range which, after being before the public for a long while, raising expectations of the most extravagant kind, has quietly sunk into oblivion. That such will be the fate Of Dr. Colenso's pretentious performance, we venture confidently to predict; and we Should be quite willing, for our own part, to let it die a natural death, but for the alarm industriously excited by the manner in which it has been ushered into the world. The object of the various and contradictory intimations which preceded its publica tion has no doubt been thus far answered by a rapid and extensive sale whether in the long run the result will prove equally satis factory, admits, we think, Oi considerable doubt.
