In my view, the Christian religion is the most important and one of the first things in which all children, under a free government ought to be instructed... No truth is more evident to my mind than that the Christian religion must be the basis of any government intended to secure the rights and privileges of a free people. Preface to 1828 Dictionary

HETEROS'CIAN, n. [Gr. other, and shadow.]
Those inhabitants of the earth are called Heteroscians, whose shadows fall one way only. Such are those who live between the tropics and the polar circles. The shadows of those who live north of the tropic of Cancer, fall northward; those of the inhabitants south of the tropic of Capricorn, fall southward; whereas the shadows of those who dwell between the tropics fall sometimes to the north and sometimes to the south.
HETEROS'CIAN, a. Having the shadow fall one way only.
One who lives either north or south of the tropics, as
contrasted with one who lives on the other side of them; -- so called
because at noon the shadows always fall in opposite directions (the
one northward, the other southward).
