Excerpt from Christianity Vindicated Burlington, in consequence of his appointment to the Episcopal ofiice, furnished an opportunity to repeat the discourses again. The result was a promise to his friends that he' would publish them as soon as practicable, and this promise he now fulfils in part, by the present volume, which contains the six discourses om the external evidences of Christianity, with' a seventh on the objections of infidelity, since composed. He has likewise added a Dissertation, designed to present, in a connected form, some proofs and illustra tions belonging to the subject, which might, and per haps would have been greatly extended, had not the pressure of other avocations, and the limits assigned to the volume, obliged him to hasten to a conclusion. In justice to himself, the author would only add, that his calculations on the success of his book are not such as can lead to any serious disappointment. The external evidences of Christianity have been admira bly handled in several well-known and deservedly pop nlar works which have issued from the English press and two very able treatises have lately been contribu ted to the same department in our own country, by Dr. Alexander, and Bishop Mc' Ilvaine, besides the volume published many years ago by Dr. Priestly. The apolo gy of the author for adding another to the list, is the common, though not less true reliance, which all men are so prone to place upon the judgment of their friends. Should that judgment be verified by the event, in the present instance, he will rejoice for no one can. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
