How far this book will add to the science heretofore accumulated on the subject of which it treats, the author's means of information do not permit him to know, but a more general intercourse with men than with books, has led him to observe that there is too little diffused information on the subject, and that much theoretical error and practical evil result from the want of it. As an illustration of this he might adduce many of the rancorous disputes which agitate society, in has arrived at truth, but simply which has adopted the better mode of expressing it--or in other words which has so expressed it, as to best harmonize with the system of truths before established, and most facilitate further acquisition--a matter of sufficient importance and difficulty to justify vigorous discussion and engage the highest talent. He believes that the influence of language on thought and its connexion with those results which are retained and go to form our opinions and beliefs, are not sufficiently understood even by many well informed on other subjects. If this essay shall throw any light on its relations with all the great objects of human interest and investigation, or if it shall have any effect in provoking thought and causing a more general attention to the subject--the utmost expectations of the writer will have been fulfilled, and he will be gratified with the reflection that a task which he has thus far performed with pleasure and benefit to himself, has not been without its utility to others.
