American Monthly Knickerbocker PDF Download

Excerpt from The American Monthly Knickerbocker, Vol. 63: June, 1864 It seems to us so common for men to hide their ignorance, that we assume this to be quite natural, and find no fault with it. Indeed, it would be child ish to find fault with nature; for it alone, taking it both materially, and Spiritually, can furnish the foundations for all our constructions, and the seeds and germs of principles which, by pro per culture, are to grow up to the dig mity of manly systems. Many of these foundations remain untouched by us, and often unknown to us and many of these principles continue as undeveloped germs during our whole lifetime, and hence, as to them, we always continue as mere children.
