The object of this treatise is to determine the true nature of Intuition, 

 and to investigate its laT(js. It starts with a general view of 

 intuitive convictions, their character and the method in which they 

 are employed, and passes on to a more detailed examination of 

 them, treating them under the various heads of ii Primitive Cogni- 

 tions, " ' ' Primitive Beliefs, " ' ' Primitive Judgments, " and ' ' Moral 

 Convictions." Their relations to the various sciences, mental and 

 physical, are then examined. Collateral criticisms are thrown 

 into preliminary and supplementary chapters and sections. ' ' The 

 undertaking to adjust the claims of the sensational and intuitional 

 philosophies, and of the a posteriori and a priori methods, is 

 accomplished in this work with a great amount of success.' 1 ' 1

 with English Philosophy, which has not led him to neglect the 

 great German works. I admire the moderation and clearness, as 

 well as comprehensiveness, of the author's views. " Dr. Dorner, of

AN EXAMINATION OF MR. J. S. MILL'S PHILOSOPHY :

 Mill's "Examination of Sir William Hamilton's Philosophy"

 estimating his theory of mind, of which he had only given hints 

 and glimpses in his logical treatise. It is this theory which Dr. 

 Jlf'Cos/i professes to examine in this volume; his aim is simply to 

 defend a portion of primary truth which has been assailed by an 

 acute thinker who has extensive influence in England. "In 

 such points as Mr. MiWs notions of intuitions and necessity, he 

 will have the voice of mankind with him. " - Athenaeum. "Such 

 a work greatly needed to be done, and the author was the man to 

 do it. This volume is important, not merely in reference to the 

 views of Mr. Mill, but of the whole school of writers, past and 

 present, British and Continental, he so ably represents."- -Princeton 

 Review.
