Tooke, John Horne, M.P., the son of John Horne, a poulterer, adopted his last name in compliment to his benefactor, William Tooke, Esq., of Purley. The subject of our notice was b. at Westminster, June 25, 1736, and educated at Westminster, Eton, and St. John's College, Cambridge; to please his father, was ordained deacon and priest, and officiated as clergyman for several years; to please himself, returned to the study of the law, (which his clerical orders debarred him from practising,) and soon became famous as a radical politician of the Wilkes school; in 1777 was prosecuted by the ministry for a libel,-having charged the king's troops with murdering the Americans at Lexington in 1775,and condemned to a fine of £200 and an imprisonment of twelve months; in 1794 was arraigned for high treason, mainly, as it appears, on account of his connection with the Constitutional Society, and acquitted after a trial in which he displayed great tact and address; in 1790 and 1796 was an unsuccessful candidate for Parliament, to which, however, he was returned (for Old Sarum, by Lord Camelford) in 1801; passed his closing years in retirement at Wimbledon, where he d. March 18, 1812. Ample details of his political career-the discussion of which does not enter into the plan of our work-will be found in the authorities cited below.

It was

1. The Petition of an Englishman, 1765. Consists principally of apologies for the private conduct and immoral writings of John Wilkes. 2. Sermon: before 1773. 3.

To this work should be added: I. Criticisms on the Diversions of Purley, by John Cassander, 1790, 8vo. See BRUCKNER, JOHN. II. Anti-Tooke: or, An Analysis of the Principles and Structure of Language, by John Fearn, 1824, 2 vols. 8vo. III. A Sequel to the Diversions of Purley, &c., by John Barclay, 1826, 1827, demy Svo. See, also, RICHARDSON, CHARLES, LL.D., Nos. 1 and 3; SALMON, NICHOLAS, NO. 3; STACK HOUSE, THOMAS, No. 2. Wither's Aristarchus, 1822, 8vo, should also accompany the Diversions of Purley. Respecting the value of the last-named work, wide differences of opinion have always existed.

"Horne Tooke's is certainly a wonderful work; but the great merit was the original thought. The light which shines through such impenetrable words as articles and pronouns is admirable,

the' and 'it. No single book, perhaps, ever so much illustrated language: yet how much more might he have done, if alone would have rendered great assistance."-SIR JAMES MACKhe had known the collateral languages! Adelung's Dictionary

INTOSH: Life, ii. ch. iii.

"He has made one of the driest subjects in the whole range of literature or science one of the most amusing and even lively of books; nor did any one ever take up the Diversions of Purley (as he has quaintly chosen to call it) and lay it down till some other avocation tore it from his hands. The success of this system has been such as its great essential merits and its more superficial attractions, combined, might have led us to expect. All men are convinced of its truth; and as every thing which had been done before was superseded by it, so nothing has since been effected unless in pursuing its views and building upon its solid foundations."-LORD BROUGHAM: States. Time of Geo. III., ed. 1856, ii. 105: Mr. Horne Tooke.

See, also, JOHNSON, SAMUEL, LL.D., (p. 975, supra: quotation from Lord Brougham.)

"Dire have been the disappointments incurred by the Diversions of Purley,-one of the toughest books in existence. It has even cast a shade over one of our best story-books, The Diversions of Hollycot, by the late Mrs. Johnstone."-JOHN HILL BURTON: The Book-Hunter, etc., (1860,) Part 2: His Functions. "The first acquaintance with the Diversions of Purley' must have formed an epoch in the life of many a student."-R. C. TRENCH: On the Study of Words.

"Horne Tooke... applied to grammar the general principles of the English sensualistic school."-VICTOR COUSIN: Course of the Hist. of Mod. Philos., Wight's trans., Lect. XIV.

"Every man who aspires to a thorough knowledge of the English language must carefully read this ingenious book, which is as interesting as it is instructive."-DR. E. WILLIAMS: Christian Preacher, 5th ed., 365.

"The Diversions of Purley is one of the most consummate compounds of ignorance and presumption that ever practised with success on human credulity. We pronounce our sentence on it in the old formula, that what is true in it is not new, and that what is new is not true."-Blackw. Mag., April, 1840, (xlvii.) 484.

"The distance between what he has proved and what he wishes us to believe that he has proved is enormous."-EARL DUDLEY: Lon. Quar. Rev., June, 1812, (vii.) 321.

"In short, we know few books more instructive than the Diversions of Purley to those who are able and willing to think for themselves; but those who are content to take up their opinions on trust, that is to say, the great majority of readers, are as likely to be misled by its author as directed aright."Lon. Quar. Rev., Sept. 1835, (liv.) 311.

Dugald Stewart (see the 5th of his Prelim. Essays and his Prelim. Dissert. to Encyc. Brit.) is a warm opponent of the Diversions of Purley.
