THE

LONDON AND WESTMINSTER

Review.

APRIL-AUGUST 1838.

"Legitimæ inquisitionis vera norma est, ut nihil veniat in practicam, cujus non fit etiam
doctrina aliqua et theoria."- BACON, De Augm, Scien.

"Those who have not thoroughly examined to the bottom all their own tenets, must con.
fess they are unfit to prescribe to others; and are unreasonable in imposing that as truth on
other men's belief which they themselves have not searched into, nor weighed the arguments
of probability on which they should receive or reject it."-LOCKE, Essay on Human
Understanding.
