Editors : I have jmt boon ren ding tho 47th No. of the North American Review, and, among other able and interes ting articles, I have Ven particularly im- pretied w ith ono on Modern Astronomy. It is indued, a most learned and masterly sketch of tlio most abstruse, nnd difficult and perfect of tho sciences—a coup d'ail of the vast «nd various Inbotji of flic New. tons nnd Hcrochula of modern times. Th*r great inventions and diHenvcries, by which tho science bus advanced to its present high ly improved statu, arc presented in bold rr ; - luif ffefuro us, ami diseussod in n manner that shews a most intimato acquaint.*m* <j with the subject, in all its extent and depth, dstmls nnd bearing*. The merits of dif ferent ohm vers, of different observations, instruments, hi,*1 instrument makers, aro touched upon, and tlio most ct riom and s'riking results are gb anod out of tbu Hugo mass of mutcritils, wiili which this depart ment of tho science ii encumbered. Tho successive steps and laborious processes**, by which astronomical tables hav e been im proved, and the degree of prefection to which they aro now brought, era dourly traced and exemplified. The t tvv fi. hl-# brought to light by the telescope nro glan ced at, with refereitro to the modifications growing out of tins accession to the s to tem. But what the author of this artiela seems to dwell upon with peculiar satisfaction ia tho progress of tho calculus, as connected with the development and establishment of the theory of gravity. Hera we aro intro* dueod to those master spirits, writose ronrso has been so far above tho ken of tho ting if- ted mortals, and who have hitherto had so littlo converse with the nrthrr world.-- Their respective claims Hre weighed nnd ad justed as t'roely and fairly as th«y aro auth oritatively. W’r lire accustomed to hear only' tho most unqualified praiso of such men as Newton and Laplace. One example, from u high authority, will serve as u specimen. “ It ib in vain that wo search every corner of the Newtonian writings for sumo trifling proofs that their author was, lilt* ourselves, liable to the common intellectual failings of the species.”—Edinburg libwio*r rot. id. p. S. In tlm article under consideration, Newton, and those who bnve wovud u, the same elevated sphere, assume iks charac ter of fuliiblo beings of this earth ; their methods and results are subjected to criri* cistu, and the sound and the true Aro sepur* uted from the unsound and the erroneous. Their high speculations, moreover, rr« pig. cud before us without pretension, without a word of triumph, or sclf-grntulation, and without betraying thu consciousness of having done any thing rmnavkablt. And yet their is an air of familiarity with tho subject, and a tone of deep conviction, nbt to be assumed or mistaken, and which dc*'tf not permit us to doubt, fur a moment, that lie who thus pionounCei judgment in mat ters of such high import, is well aware what be is ul>out; that he Ktandd on firm ground *, that he measured his strength with thoso gi gantic minds, to whose powers he vrntur»‘w to fix the limit, and that, though some of the parties are still living, there w ill be 110 appeal from tint decision. We are oft*!n rnnainded, In reading thhl article, of the reported conversations of Bo* ne retx napotte, in which fn> discusses the politic® of Europe ; descants upon the momentous events of the Revolution ; stumps, by a sentenco or a word, tho character of somo great Marshal or great Minister, or a groat battle ; passing by, as scarcely worthy of his notice, second ratu heroes, and states men, nnd transactions. Tho only regret of the reader is, that the person who could write thus, did n«t write more ; that the profound author has not given us his notes, discoveries, und reflec tions, at large ; instead of tLi- rapid and condensed outline.—Were the public and tho world thus favored, this niticlo exhibits abundant proof tliatit would be equally ail honor to our country and to the ago. Of those who are in any degree acquain ted with the subject, few need bo informed, that there is but one individual on this side of the water, and art extremely limited number 011 the oilier, who would assume such a responsibility as that of which w« have spoken.
