Essays. By John Abercrombie, M.D., F. R. S. E., Author of “Inquiries concerning the Intellectual Powers,” “The Philosophy of the Moral Feelings,” etc., etc. From the 19th Edinburgh Edition. New York: Harper & Brothers.

Of course we shall not say a word in commendation of the truly great author of “The Intellectual Powers.” The present edition of his “Essays,” is from the British copy revised by himself, and embracing, for the first time, some of the best of his writings. “The Intellectual Powers” and the “Moral Feelings,” can be obtained of the Harpers, who issued these admirable disquisitions, some time since, as portions of “The Family Library.”
