Book excerpt: Excerpt from Characteristics of New England Theology: A Discourse Delivered at the First Public Anniversary of the Congregational Board of Publication, at the Tremont Temple Boston And moreover, because the Preacher was wise, he still taught the people knowledges; Yea, he gave good heed, and sought out and set in order many proverbs. The Preacher sought to find out acceptable words: and that which was written was upright, even words of truth. The words of the wise are as goads, and as nails fastened by the masters of assemblies, which are given from one shepherd. At the last year's anniversary of this Society, it first assumed the name which it now bears, and which it will probably retain while it shall exist. Its original name was "The Doctrinal Tract and Book Society;" the title by which it is now known, is, "The Congregational Board of Publication." The latter designation is, indeed, less comprehensive, less assuming, than the former; but in assuming its present more specific and exactly descriptive name, it will gain, we trust, far more in efficiency than it has lost in comprehensiveness of title.
