WEALTH OF NATIONS. 199 



Macculloch is, beyond all question, the first in this coun- 

 try, and M. de Gamier abroad. The edition of the 

 former is a book of great value, and like his excellent 

 treatise on Political Economy in the ' Encyclopedia 

 Britannica/ ought to be in the hands of every one who 

 would study this science with success.""" 



* The editions of Dr. Smith's works referred to in this Life are, 

 ' Moral Sentiments/ London, 1792, and 'Wealth of Nations,' Lon- 

 don, 1802; being the seventh of the former, and the tenth of the 

 latter.
