Such a man is a true national glory. We close our imperfect notice with a short extract from Mr. Ticknor's preface: 'But if, after all, this memoir should fail to set the author of the 'Ferdinand and Isabella' before those who had not the happiness to know him personally, as a man whose life for more than forty years was one of almost constant struggle-of an almost constant sacrifice to duty, of the present to the future-it will have failed to teach its true lesson, or to present my friend to others as he stood before the very few who knew him as he was.
"Virtue could see to do what virtue would
By her own radiant light, though sun and moon
Were in the flat sea sunk."
SERMONS, Preached at Trinity Chapel, Brighton, by the late
Rev. FREDERICK W. ROBERTSON, M. A., the Incumbent. Fifth
Series. Boston: Ticknor &Fields. 1864. For sale by D. Appleton Co., New York.
The sermons of Mr. Robertson are very popular in England. They are remarkable for clearness and excellence of style, and earnestness of purpose.
