(The discussion is carried on in the form of dialogues between a great number of interlocutors representing many different views on philosophical and religious subjects.)

"Most people would regard this treatise, popular and fascinating as it is in form and style, as a work not merely of the highest erudition, (which it is,) but of the most laborious research, which only a writer in the fullest enjoyment of his faculties could have carried out with such spirit and so much accuracy of detail. Yet Dr. Kalisch throws it off during a period of extreme debility, when unable to prosecute his own special studies. We venture to think that the volume will do more for his fame than any of the volumes yet published of his Commentary."Sat. Rev., 1. 55.

"It would be scarcely possible for any one man to give a clearer or fairer summary and statement-it would be difficult for any one to give a more temperate or more judicious estimate of the various forms in which the thought of the present day is cast."-Acad., xvii. 335.

This O was presently taken to signify (amongst other things) unity, and so was I, standing for one finger.

Mr. Kay is always just; he is well informed, and, although he is enthusiastic, he is accurate. That his scheme of reform is not perfected, that it is nowhere clearly and fully defined and expressed, is, we may suppose, due to his premature and lamented death." -ARTHUR ARNOLD: Acad., xv. 428.

Keane, John Friar Thomas, b. 1854, at Whitby, Yorkshire: son of Rev. William Keane, infra; ran away from the Royal Naval School, Newcross, when twelve years old, and went to sea, and has since been mate of many vessels, chiefly in the East India trade. He acquired a knowledge of Hindustani and Arabic, served in the Turkish army in 1877, made a pilgrimage to Mecca and Medina in 1878, afterwards studied medicine at the University of Edinburgh, but has since returned to his original profession. He has contributed to the Pall Mall Gazette and other papers. 1. Six Months in Meccah: an Account of the Mohammedan Pilgrimage to Meccah recently accomplished by an Englishman professing Mohammedanism, Lon., 1881, 8vo; new ed., 1887, p. 8vo.

"If the author has very much less to record in this volume,-no grand effects like the mass of worshippers at Mecca or the vast confusion of the journey to Arafat. there is no falling off in cleverness, which perhaps is even more conspicuously shown in the success with which he has treated the ordinary details and adventures of a caravan march."-Ath., No. 2818.

"In the present volume he is in, and on, his own element. He has spent several years before the mast, and professes to give his own experiences. But this clever book depends less for its effect on descriptions of striking incidents than on the vivid impression it leaves of the general tenor of the sailor's life and his way of looking at things."-Ath., No. 2906.

"His wanderings are not of a commonplace order. They are mostly by sea; but he has tried every capacity, from first-class passenger on board a well-found liner to that of sailor out of work on the tramp from Liverpool to London. In every capacity he appears to preserve his good humour, while his powers of observation and narration are such as to interest the reader in every phase of his career. In fact, this is a thoroughly readable book, though some of the adventures narrated may require to be taken with a grain of salt."-Spectator, lx. 1189.

"As far as his book deals with the purer and more attractive aspects of Nature-worship, it is admirable. But into the legends of the Nature-gods are inextricably woven survivals of the ruder forms of old legend and belief, and these, we think, are really quite as 'primitive' as the elements of Nature-worship to which Mr. Keary devotes his space."-Sat.
