Ir is a significant enough fact, that of the philosophers of Germany those are comparatively most appreciated who move in a region of diffuseness and darkness. The art-criticism of the Schlegel-Schelling school is accepted with far greater avidity than the learned, thorough, and lucid criticism of Lessing; the mathematical exactness of Fichte's phraseology and method is thrown aside for the obscure, but, on that account, more awe-inspiring, diffuseness of Hegel; and how much higher a place is assigned to Spinoza than to Leibnitz as a philosopher! So true is it that the human race flies from light as if it were an enemy, and binds itself in subjection to mystery. NO. 222.

VOL. CVIII.
