The examination Of the philosophy Of Dr. Thomas Brown will be Observed to engross a prominent share in this compilation. The works Of that remarkable writer seem destined to a higher rank amongst the productions Of the nineteenth century than they have as yet gener ally assumed. Symptoms Of returning justice in this respect have appeared in different quarters. Even whilst revising for the press this portion Of the collection, the author was happy to recognize the lofty estimate placed on the writings Of Dr. Brown, in the recently published conversations and letters Of so competent an authority as Sydney Smith.
