With such a general propensity to liter try pursuits it may, of course, be expeded that every day gives birth to Works in every branch of •turs ; and iierice book-making may be considered as • One, of the mast a&ve and lucrative pursuits of.the present times. In order to put some check upon ' the efforts of those who would ki r , s l pear. in the character of Authors, without posses4img Atte re apisitequalificatitins, the institution of Itnstmws he came a necessary •means to stop the course 4yiguo ranee, chillness, and - prostiniption. Reviews,. ihere- fere, under the guidance of men of learning, itidg. gent, and candour, are not only well calculated to obviate the attempts ofofitrusive rashness, and, folly, but to . di dime true principles of composition,. anti to itnprove 'the national taste. Many Works Of this kind have appeared which 'have been eopdtiCied by men of great talent's andetenseive information, but they have for niany mlr.kbeen upon the decline„and have in a great measqe "degenerated into Mere.. vehicles of sedarian or Oernoeratical artifice.' The appearance - of The'Ediirbutth neviewtoustitta• ed a ft ...N.. sera in the' annals of British"Literathre, and the spirit with which it 'was coiitnEted.ccinf - erred on it lentil a charaCter of comparative superiority as en abled it to obtain,. considerable repute, It must be acknowledged, however, bat though this Review ha's et times eibibited ample information and gr6t acu men, it has also been distinguished by a degree of pert- mess, arrogance, and acrimony that exciteeditigusf, even in those who were struck by its saga City and gratified,by its humour. It is evident that in' under. takings of this kind there must be many persons en gaged, and hence ,we' • may infer that those parts of the Review alluded to. which afforded satisfaCtion by the knowledge andgeodleuse they‘contained, were written by men of experience- and refledin, and that those parts which were intended'" to devote and surprise," as Mr. Bayei'ha4 it, were left -to their juvenile confederates. But the Oat objec tion to The Edinburgh ReView in general, whether • composed by: the - veteran or, the youthfill co. adjutors, 'has been that superabundance of origi nal obsertfcitibto with which thi-y have 'favoured their Readers, insomuch that serneiiiiies they seen wholly to have forgotten that they bad .any work before them which demanded their notice, and the qualities of which, according _to',•the clutraCter they assumed, it was their duty to describe. On Asiatic subjetts; in particular, these Reviewers- haVe Indulged themselves .in the most copious animadvd ions 'and while employed in the agreeable amuse. Minit of detailing their own speculations,.. they have entirely lost sight Of the works which they have avowedly come forward to investigate. But as we are now involuntarily imitatiertheir exam ple, while we are expressing - our condemnation of it, we shall adyert to the work before usi psrticu— laly as it supports .our own setitirnents in this ras spett, and ably convicts .the' anonymous critics al •lisded to, 'of ,advancing opinions wholly unwarranted ' by•the.state 'of fiats; and of arraigning that sy sten( ib the management of Our Eastern concerns, • which forcibly demands the admiration • and gratitude "of ..very man 'capable of entering into the principles of *comprehensive and. enlightened policy. - " In proport ion to the degree of reputati o n whi c h any writer has acquired, his, opinions ought •to be Cautiously weighed, and attentively eit6mined. It is natural to the pride of lit eiiiiyiiiktits to sport with the farours of th ; and; unless- the judgment of a popular author be much strOuger. than his pride, tie will bey , prone to indulge •in all the Caprices of hi, itnaAlnation, and to cxert his inlitlonce in the •drisert iinatioo of sl ecitlatiye. notions in litera ture, or in politics, which, may be adapted to the 'exercise of philosophical' ingen9ity, or to, the pur poheg of political contention;, 'without any .regard to tbd OCCIiI'AL ) 1 . ti• 10 0 1 S ), •or to the justness of the principit.s u (liege notioncare fotinded;' and m i n df u l only of those striking expreglon's . , and of that imposing sophistry, by which •Vhd fOnefalitY" of his readers will be re.idily captivated and tiiisled. To the; molly inous writers of literary pe r i o dia ti l 'JOU rnals 14 , 1ticii have attained celehiity, this observation will, in zany instances; be found to' apply; and the &lin.' burgh fit view has recently exhibited sortie eminent il.ustriltions of its truth. ‘‘ The first number of this critital 13ornal nt , traded tke notice, and obtained the apProbation, of men of judgment and taste, bribe severe jUS‘; tke of its criticisms, and by the real talents and learning which it displayed. But the 'writers of this work, having thus at once acsuireo a high re putation as critics, were no longer content to con tine the exertions of their abilities to their own pro per province. Public praise predliced in their minds its usual intoxicating effeas and the more Bober judgment and ,discretion of .these Gentlemen yield ed to the desire of rendering their publication a con 7. venient vehicle for the display of, their powers in elaborate disquisition, anti for the protoulgatilln, of their viewa in philosophy and in polities. :Hence the review of some. new theories .in metaphysics, furnished occa,,ions for gratifying iloeirt readers with very full expositiOns of their own n?,efapkysical ripe. enhttions. Hence the celebratC4l work of Segni., on the' Politics of Enrppean Courts,. during a parti cular period :of time, served to introduce a, prolix dissertation of their own, on the 6.4 principles of the law of nations, and op the progressive ad-, vancenient of that science in ,rnadern times,, whilst the work kiell is lacopi&uity described and in a few sentences. And, hence these discursive critics, in exposing the plagiarisms of an illiterate. scribbler, who has published a book on India, urge. niously discovered ; ---" a most favourable occasion". to speculaie at great length on the state of the &I wo Possessions in that Country, to- iinsinum their LO,NI)ON ; Priisted 1, At the SUN-Oil UisapprOuatiuu ut tuZ policy uy povessions have lately been governed, and to recommend the propagation of the established reli gion of. be Church of England amongst the Hindus, " under the . power and influence cal Go.remittent,' as the best Means of conciliating their alktions..-- and the. introdiatEtioii.. of English colonisti amongst them, to share in the property and cultivation Zif their native soil, at a sure way to•teach thetn'to ad ',mire, and in tithe to imitate, the superior jnstice•and moral feeling of the English In the ,spirit of..this most just, generous, and enlightened poliev,asp Writer - of this last artiole, has, iii tlaktsth titnikr of)ti4 Jonrnal, again intrOduced ,altii",iliSoni.sion,,ot * lndian of ifs, in a , manner still more :strikingly : , than that w hick he . had before ,adoptcd. , 'PA , re4publication of .A.lr.

" But, though a review of thepu bljcation alluded to would have beenas fair, it would not'have been , so convenient a mode of attack on Lord Wellesley's I Administration, as the One which has been adopted. • In reviewing that publication, he must have noticed those, details, into. which he declares " he cannot enter ;" and of th e ..fads of which, though 'adapt ed, as he says, to enforce and elucidate his argu ments, he studiously forbears to avail himself. This • magnaninvin, forbearance leadi hiM chiefly to con vey his nnimativeli,:ionsin th . dse Loose Coni enient rge. neralities, which at once free his genius from die minute restraions of truth, and best persuade that Lige proportion of his readers, who have either ito time, Or no kapacify for inoniry, and who, tlft.liefoOe, readily rely on his judgment, and' adopt..his. " He .informs us himself, that the bulk of his readers "' consider India as . something very . large, very ‘tritius, and very distant ;" and hence proceeds hiS anxiety to'gise them a distinct idea of its Present state, by at-Omitting them, " that . the system 'of fo reign 'policy, pursued by the British Government, bears, in its brtxtd out-line, no slight similarity to the plin of universal as,Cendai:ey acted tipott by the Cele: brared oppressor Aurungiehe." Here again he . de dares, ' he cannot enter into minute details ;" and the bulk of his :waders are therektre left to' conclude, that, iii addition to. India being " very large, Very curious, and very., distant," the British Government there resembles that,of Anriigzebe,•• the Great D4o -1 of.whose nante, ; at least; they niay before have heard and which, perhaps, contributed to give theta that, notiou of India being so' " curious," which he . 114 so happily correaed. ."
