Excerpt from Letters to Indian Youth on the Evidences of the Christian Religion: With a Brief Examination of the Evidences of Hinduism, Parsiism, and Muhammadanism Very few words will be required to explain the character and object of these "Letters." Although many excellent works on the Christian Evidences exist in the English language, yet there is perhaps none that can be considered we suited to the wants of Native youth. In the following pages the attempt has been made to present this all-important subject to the educated mind of India in a form at once simple and attractive - the reasonings and illustrations having, as far as possible, an Oriental reference. Utility has been aimed at, rather than novelty. The writer has never scrupled to employ the argument that seemed best to answer his purpose, whether it was original or not. On the Christian Evidences he has in particular consulted the works of Paley, Chalmers, Sumner, Hartwell Home, President Hopkins (of America), and T. Erskine. With regard to the Oriental systems of religion he has been careful, in questions that could admit of any doubt, to append the names of the authorities relied on. He trusts that the spirit in which the work is written, is in harmony with that love which pervades the religion whose claims are here unfolded. Polemical discussion has of course, been unavoidable; but he trusts that the tone on the argument, however earnest, is never acrimonious.
