Excerpt from Sermons

We have states in the Sketch of Dr. Spencer's Life and Character, the circumstances connected with the issue of these volumes of posthumous sermons from his pen. We have also preferred to express there what we have on other matters, which more properly belong to a preface.

As to the form given to the present volumes, we have consulted what was supposed would be the wish of the numerous possessors of A Pastor's Sketches, making them uniform with them. Our only regret in doing this has been, that, after making the most of our space, and condensing the Sketch, we were still obliged to withhold so many sermons of a very superior character, which we should have gladly added to the number hereby given to the public.

In the arrangement of the Sermons, the Editor has followed what seemed to him the most natural course, embodying in one volume, and, as nearly as might be, in systematic order, those mainly of a doctrinal character; and in the other, grouping together subjects of a kindred nature, those which may be denominated practical or experimental.
