ACKNOWLEDGMENTS TO CORRESPONDENTS.

We believe, but cannot be quite pofitive, that the Sermon mentioned by B. L. was not fent to us till we had his letter. The poem arrived very punctually. To the plan which he propofes there are objections of confiderable force.

"When two men ride on a horfe," fays Shakfpeare, "one of them must ride behind." In like manner, when an hundred books arrive together, fome must be noticed before others. If C. W. would recollect thefe axioms, he would find little reafon for his remonstrance.

BRITISH CRITIC,

For JUNE, 1805.

Τις ἤδη ἰατρὸς εὐμήχανος ἀνεκίρασε βραχεῖαν ἡδονῆν τῷ ἀλγεινῷ τῆς λάσεως. ΜΑx. TYR.

Every skilful practitioner will take care to mix fomething palatable, with the bitter draughts he is obliged to adminifter.

ART. I. An Abstract of the whole Doctrine of the Chriftian Religion; with Obfervations. By John Anaftatius Frey linghaufen, Minifter of St. Ulrich's Church, and Inspector of the Public School, at Hall, in Germany. From a Manufcript in HER MAJESTY'S Poffeffion. Imperial 8vo.

216 pp. 12s. Cadell and Davies. Stereotype. 1804. So much herefy and learned nonfenfe have been of late imported from Germany, under pretence of bringing the church of England acquainted with the fpeculations of men peculiarly diftinguished for their progrefs in theological fcience, that we are happy to announce to our readers the tranflation of a German work, in which, though they will meet with no difcoveries in religion, they will find old truths clearly stated and fyftematically arranged. Freylinghaufen belongs not to the fchool of Eichhorn, or to any other school in which paradox is preferred to truth. Novelty could be no recommendation of opinions to him, who feems to have "flood in the ways, and confcientiously afked for the old paths, where is the good way", that he and thofe, who should liften to her inftruction, might "find reft for their fouls".
