xviii BIOGRAPHICAL WRITINGS ON LINN^US. 



Reprinted in the Journal de Physique, par M. Rozier, vol. xiv. 

 page 1. LiNN.'Eus sent himself, a Jew years before his death, the biogra- 

 phical materials for this panegyric to the Academy. The -whole is more 

 an oratorical and scientific statement than a biographical account. — It only 

 contains common places, and erroneous denominations and false assertions. 

 For instance, page sixty-seven, Condorcet calls Linn^us while he 

 was Rudbeck's substitute, le Professeur, qui quitta bientot Upsal, m,ais 

 en conservant sa chaire. II avoit fait uii marriage heureux, qui lui a 

 donne trois filles et un jils ; Linne mourut vers la fin mois de Janvier, 

 1778, ec. &c.
