65 POSTSCRIPT. 



rence of the dreadful consequences of su-- 

 perstition and bigotry, and of those of 

 tyrannical restriction and oppression. Yet 

 in recoiling from one kind of error, the party 

 seem to me to have run into an opposite 

 one, and to have equally deviated from the 

 mid-way path, which is trodden only by the 

 unprejudiced and considerate. With re- 

 spect to the subject of nationality, however, 

 I wish to submit a sentence, which 1 re- 

 member to have heard in Mr. Coleridge's 

 lectures, to Mr. Lawrence's consideration. 

 There can be no sincere cosmopolitan, who is 

 not also a patriot. Is it becoming likewise in 

 Mr. Lawrence to point out what he considers 

 as the weak parts of my lectures to general 

 observation ? Fortunately for me, indeed, 

 he is not to be my judge ; for he is strongly 

 prejudiced, and evidently angry : the mem- 

 bers of our profession in general are to de- 

 termine the value of my humble endeavours 

 to promote our professional knowledge and 

 character, and in their decision I am ready 

 respecttully to acquiesce. 



THE END.
