" This work excites much curiositfbecause it professedly treats of living Charaaers, and we infer that its information is.impartial and correct. It is but justice to own that we have been altogether amused by the publication."—British Critic. • «A spirit of candour and moderation evidently pervades the present publication. Some of the characters are drawn with great discrimination, and display an acuteness of powers, and a felicity of expresSion, not to be found in the fleeting produdions of the day. In short, the work abounds in moral and critical observations that evince correctness of judgment, and delicacy of taste."—London Review. ‘. This Work discovers respedable traits of discrimination, and has the merit of being uncontaminated by the virulen:e of party spirit."—Critical Review. The memoirs contained in these Volumes are full and accuratd in point of information.; judicious in their literary and critical strictures: and exhibit well drawn and appro priate charaders of their respedive subjeds'. They•are not written under the uniform influence of any particular theo logical or political bias."—New Annual Register. • This Work proceeds according to its first design, and it seems to irriprove as it advances with time. The volumes contain a considerable number of memoirs of personsi our contemporaries, whcfli,gtire in the moral, the political, and the scientific walks of society. The discussion of living cha raders is a difficult and delicate task, but in the execution of it, the Authors of this Wcirk have acquitted themselves with as much success as can' reasonably be expe..ted."—Mouthly Review.
