Whitehead, if not a man of genius, 
was aman of taste; if he was the flat- 
terer, he was also the improver of the 
great; the arts are indebted to him for 
efficacious commendations; and_ his 
fabte of the Youth and the Philosopher, 
is still popular.

Tt is said that many anonymovs, 
ainphlets exist, in which Arthur Collier 
thas defended Berkeley's hypothesis, and 
bas argued well in behalf of idealism. 
Can any of your readers communicate 
the titles of such pamphlets, or other 
particulars of this acute metaphysician ? 
Professor Eberhard in his Lectures on 
the History of Philosophy, delivered at 
Halle, classes Collier with Berkely; yet 
he has not obtained a nich at home in

King of Bohemia, &c. begins with a La- 
tin prayer, which is for this remarkable,

Prospice, ne gressum faciat, ubi regnat Erine

Imperat Alecto, leges dictante Megzra ; 
Sed potius virtute tui quem diligis hujus 
Czsaris insignis Caroli, Deus Alme, ministra, 
Ur valeat, &c. 
The poem, in like manner, jumbles 
together Lucifer, Satan, the destruction 
of Troy, and the war of Pompey and 
Cesar.

SAINTLY SYNONYMS, 
“ When misfortunes happen to such 
as dissent from us in matters of religion, 
we call them judgments ; when to those 
of our own sect, we call them trials.” — 
So remarks Shenstone: these forms of 
expression therefore. must, in his time, 
have been usual in good company ; now 
they are confined to the evangelical 
sects, and would be thought to have a 
twang of cant.
