TRACTS FOR THE TIIOES.
Wilson, London, 1840. Of
This volume consists ofa re-publicatO
twelve political, legal, religious, and hist?riniecrit
tracts, from the pens of some of the most emvtre
men that this country has, given birth's c., and
find, among the twelve, Milton's
eloquent prose work—viz., his " AreoPagit'caress;
pamphlet in defence of the liberty of the P—two
of the $
and an account of the characters
Charleses, and Oliver Cromwell, foams
portion of the introductory chapter to r (A's the
tory of the early part of the Reign of James his.
Second." In the present age of political and
s;
io
torical inquiry, a volume like the one before
anitnte:". $
calculated to be of special benefit. We trust
Wilson will be induced to continue his re-e—lar..
tion of such serviceable tracts.. Milton's, Widely
ticular, ticular, cannot be too often reprinted, or too vou
disseminated.
