In those days we had no one to match with any of them

In Barrington Judge — diffident of what please.

Beccaria

By the little work of Beccaria, though, unless the
succeeding labours in the same vinyard have been fruitless,
there much instruction would not now at present be to be reaped
from it, the first step right steps rightly-directed were made in the track of
penal legislation. He too was of the number of the
French Philosophers: he, as the last edition of his book
shews was invited by them to Paris from his native Italy, and received by the whole fraternity with open
arms

If there be any one of them to whom without danger
of mistake error the title may be ascribed, Montesquieu assuredly
is he of the number.

Montesquieu

If in Montesquieu there be wit ingenuity be found more wit than predominant
over judgment, if of his three volumes 2½ or
thereabouts might be omitted left out without loss — if partly
from prudential purposed and necessary obscurity, partly from want of pr that
patience which is necessary to enable a man pare down the generality extent
of extensive wide-extending propositions to that degree which is would be necessary
to the bringing confining them exactly them in even direction within the pale of truth
most if not all his propositions notwithstanding the quantity
of new and useful truth they that might be found of them, are
would if taken in the extent given to them by
the words employed in the expression of them be found to be
false — if among the more particular and less widely
extending propositions there be many which are being grounded
in erroneous views of the subject are false in toto Go on thus
it is not the less true that at the time of his first appearance, and
for a long time after we had nothing that could stand in comparison with him from any English hand.
