Descrição: The preceding articles have exhibited the nature of a well ordered mind, and have illustrated the position, that the mind of man is disordered. The most important enquiry then, which can gain the attention of our race, relates to the method by which this disarrangement can be remedied, and the mind restored to the regular and healthful operations of faculties, perverted to evil, but designed by the Creator solely for the production of happiness. It has been shown, that a mind would be in perfect order, and would fulfil the design for which it is created, when it always chooses the greater good for itself, instead of yielding to the impulses of present desire, and always acts to secure the greatest amount of general happiness, irrespective of its own particular share. The question then arises, is there any mode by which the human mind can be brought thus to act? Is there any pressure of motive sufficient to induce such habits?
