SYDNEY SMITH: CRITIC OF INDIAN MISSIONS In the February 1808 issue of the Edinburgh Review , the Reverend Sydney Smith contributed to the emergent debate over the Christianization of India. That debate had been prompted by the decision of evangelicals, including prominent members of the Church of England, to encourage relaxation of East India Company regulations limiting missionary activity on the Indian sub-continent. Smith (1771-1845), a clergyman of the Church of England, was suited to the formation of polite opinion. Known as a wit and as co-founder of the Edinburgh Review , he later became an eloquent proponent of Catholic Emancipation (affording civil liberties to Catholics). Ironies in Smith's essay on "Indian Missions" derive from an implied comparison between the published words of the missionaries and the principles of Smith's "rational" Christianity. Smith drew extensively from the Periodical Accounts of the Baptist Missionary Society , offering quotations designed to exemplify the departure from reason that he took to be typical of Indian missionary sojourns. Smith, who wrote during the Napoleonic Wars in the aftermath of the Vellore Mutiny of 1806, appealed to Britons' concerns regarding the menace of French power and the precarious loyalty of Indians. Smith's references to Baptist missionaries as "Anabaptists," however, reveal that something more than a playful irony was at work here: Smith had invoked the rhetoric of the Protestant Reformation, delivered a stinging social slur, and underscored his own anxiety to distance himself from radicalism.

Sydney Smith (1771-1845):
Fallacies Of Anti-Reformers, 1824

Introductory Note Sydney Smith (1771-1845) was an English clergyman noted as the wittiest man of his time. He was educated at Winchester and Oxford, and in 1798 went to Edinburgh as tutor to the son of an English gentleman. While there he proposed the founding of the "Edinburgh Review," and with Jeffrey, Brougham, and Francis Horner shared in its actual establishment. He superintended the first three numbers, and continued to write for it for twenty-five years. On leaving Edinburgh he lectured in London, held livings in Yorkshire and Somersetshire, was made prebendary of Bristol and Canon of St. Paul's. The review of Bentham's "Book of Fallacies" exhibits at once the method of the Edinburgh Reviewers, Smith's vigorous, pointed, and witty style, and the general trend of his political opinions. He was a stanch Whig, and in such issues as that of Catholic Emancipation he fought for liberal opinions at the cost of injury to his personal prospects. As a clergyman he was kindly and philanthropic, a good preacher, and a hater of mysticism. No political writing of his time was more telling than his on the side of toleration and reform; and his wit, while spontaneous and exuberant, was employed in the service of good sense and with careful consideration for the feelings of others. If he lacks the terrific power of Swift, he lacks also his bitterness and savagery; his honesty and sincerity were no less, and his personality was as winning as it was amusing.

"Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy." Benjamin Franklin, (1706-1790). "It is disgusting to notice the increase in the quantity of coffee used by my subjects, and the amount of money that goes out of the country as a consequence. Everybody is using coffee; this must be prevented. His Majesty was brought up on beer, and so were both his ancestors and officers. Many battles have been fought and won by soldiers nourished on beer, and the King does not believe that coffee-drinking soldiers can be relied upon to endure hardships in case of another war." Frederick the Great of Prussia (1777), from Scientific American , June 1998. "He was a wise man who invented beer." Plato (Greek philosopher) 428- 347 BC "What two ideas are more inseparable than Beer and Britannia?"

Addison, Joseph
The eldest son of a cleric, Addison eventually found himself at Oxford (Queen's and Magdalen). He wrote favourable (whether commissioned, or not) articles concerning certain powerful people and their works; he was duly rewarded with a pension of £300 which allowed Addison to travel extensively throughout the continent for four years. With the victory at Blenheim , in 1704, Addison was commissioned to write The Campaign and this led to further political patronage; he was appointed as a Commissioner of Excise Taxes (the only significant taxes they had in those days). The job as a commissioner, presumably, took little of Addison's time and he was left to pursue his writing. While he had contributed to the Tatler (started by Steele in 1709), Addison started his own paper in 1711, the Spectator ("In the Spectator may be traced the foundations of all that is sound and healthy in modern English thought."
