Critical "Opinions upon the preceding Volnines.
" This work excites much curiosity because it professedly
in
formation
is of living ChataCters; and we infer that its
is impartial and correct. I t 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 charaders are drawn
with great discrimination, and disp lay an acuteness of powers,
and a felicity of expression; not to be found' in the • fleeting
productions of the day. In short, the work abounds us moral
and critical observations that evince correctness of judgment,
and delicacy of kaste."—London Review. • '
" This Work discovers respedlable traits of'discrimination,
and has the merit of being uncontarrtinated by. the virulen:e
of party spirit."—Critical Review. •
The memoirs contained in these Volumes are full and:
accurate in point of infortnation i judicious in their literary:
'and critical strielurs: and exhibit well drawnaud appro- :
,priate characters of their respective subjedts. They arc 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 improve as it advances-With time. The volumes
contain a considerable number of memoirs of persons, our
contemporaries, who figure in the moral, the political, and
the scientific walks of society. The discussion of living elm-
raCters is a difficult and deliate task, but in the execution of
it,. the Authors of this Work have acquitted themselves with
as much success as can reasonably be expeded."—Monthly
