Nor could I very well, say, "Outlines of the Problem; " for the work does not pretend to be so much. In short, I do not see but I must let the title stand in its appalling nakedness and vastness; presuming that the reader will expect nothing on such a subject, but approximations, hints, and outlines. I would say, however.

Providence and government of God. --- Religion and science.
