Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility.

I cannot allow this edition to pass into the hands of the public, without expressing profound reverence for the memory 'of Sir W.

Hamilton, and a strong sense of the loss which the cause of Philosophy has sustained by his removal.

The letter which he addressed to me shortly after the appearance of my volume, has been for some time before the public in the Appendix to his Lectures on Metaphysics; the answer to it is to be found in the Appendix to this edition.

The conviction that he could not be long amongst us, was the main inducement to me to adventure upon an early publica tion of my views, that he might have the opportunity of replying to the arguments employed, if he thought, fit to do so.

The letter which I had the honour to receive from him, is a valuable fragment; and, though it has not abated my opposition to his doctrine, no antagonism of Opinion can alter the ardent affection I have cherished for my revered preceptor.
