This is one of a class of books which we
always welcome-with a ,peculiar gratification
and interest. Ittakes the facts, 14phe
nomena of our mdral natures exactly as it
finds them; it subjects them to:earefui, and
Penetrating analysis; it developw-their deep
meaning and their sublime - relations, , and
.
shows in them a system of wants, adapta
tions,, and prophetic yearnings which find
their answer and fulfilment in the , C,kospel
alone. In this deeply interesting and con
vincing manner, it presents us withthe ?tit-,
lines of an . entife system of ,what might
*ithrentire truthfulness be called : N4 ura t
Theology; perhaps we mightsaylpsychi c o,
or psychological theology. '-
r lt - iti following
in the same line of thought and argument
with MoCosh, Henry Rogera, and other re
cent defenders 'of evangelical truth against
'the better class of modern dOnbiers. There
can be nothing more satisfactory and 'con
vincing to persons _of ,a,,,f,Anughful disposi-,
tion than this; method.: of arguing from the
admitted •filets of. consciousness and human
experience. = . : 'Even those not troubled with
doubiirill berefreshed and strengthened
in f4owing Mr. Reid's searching and
truthful analYsie, in discovering frequent
and startling proofs of the depth of his
knowledge pfhtnuan nature, and in observ
ing the beautiful, harmony of the p4"O
revelation with the actual condition of,

of logic and metaphysics, and to be studied,
too, in connection with the writings of Ham
ilton. Yet, strange to -say. it is quite im
possible to use it along with the American
edition of Aamilton's Lectures. Mill's ref
erences are, of course. to the pages of the
original edition. Now the best thing that
his American republishers could have done,
under the circumstances, would have been
either to adapt, those references to the
American edition of Hamilton, or to add
the proper references thereto. These refer
ences are to passages and• sometimes words
or phrases to Which the index affords no
clue ' even -if the labor of index-hunting
had been thrown upon us. The result is,,
that for lyti t t:poses pf impediate and rapid
verification, this reprint is strippelt_of a
large part of its value. For instinee, we
have in - Mill constantly recurring' referen
ces to pages of the first, second, third, or
fourth volumes of Hamilton's Lectures.
