ABSTRACT
The insularity of England among the family of European nations is more than that of mere geographical position. Self-contained and self-contented, her people, as a people, seldom extend an enlightened regard or a warm sympathy beyond the narrow sphere of cares and interests involved in the progressive development of the internal powers and resources of their own country. The Unity of Humanity, which expresses the law of individual intercourse, also includes the law of the inter-communication of nations. The sentiment, enthusiastically responded to by the human instincts of a Roman audience, even in Rome's most corrupt days, Christian England has yet to extend and apply to international interests.
