MENTAL AND MORAL PHILOSOPHY, ETC. 55 



M'Cosh (J.) continued. 



This work is divided into four books. The first presents a general 

 view of the Divine Government as fitted to thrcnu light 'on th e 

 character of God; the second deals with the method of the Divine 

 Government in the physical world; the third treats of the principles 

 of the human mind through which God governs mankind; and the 

 fourth is on Pastoral and Revealed Religion, and the Restoration 

 of Alan. An Appendix, consisting of seven articles, investigates 

 the fundamental principles which underlie the speculations of the 

 treatise. " This ivork is distinguished from other similar ones by 

 its being based upon a thorough study of physical science, and an 

 accurate knowledge of its present condition, and by its entering in a 

 deeper and more unfettered manner than its predecessors upon the dis- 

 cussion of the appropriate psychological, ethical, and theological ques- 

 tions. The author keeps aloof at once from the a priori idealism and 

 dreaminess of German speculation since Schelling, and from the 

 onesidedness and narrowness of the empiricism and positivism 

 which have so prevailed in England" Dr. Ulrici, in "Zeitschrift 

 fur Philosophic."

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

 and to investigate its laws. 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 varwus heads of "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. 

 Westminster Review. "/ value it for its large acquaintance 

 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 

 Berlin.
