" Air. Tracy is the author of a Treatise on the

considering the present work but ns a second
section to those Elements under the titles of
Analytical Table, .Supplement and Introdne
t.oti, tic gives, in the-e preiiuiinary pieces, a
supplement to the Elements, shews how the
present work stands on that as its basis, pre
sents a .summary vit w of it, and before enter
ing on the formation, distribution, employ
ment of property, he investigate** the question,
ot the origin <>t the rights of property and per
sonality, a question not new indeed, yet one
which lias not hitherto been satisfactoritv set
tled. These iiivcstigationsarc very metaphysi
cal, profound and denioiistmtiv«, and will give
satisfaction to minds in the habit of abstract
speculation. Readers, however, not dbpo*ed
t<> enter into them, after reading tltc summary
view, entitled ‘‘ On our actions,” will probably
pass on at onee to the coiniiit iiccuient of the
m tin subject of the work, which i, treated of
under the following heads : ,
Ot Society.
<>i Production, or the Fmmition ofonr Rich
es.
Ot Value.oi the Measure of Vfilitv.
Of Chauge of Form, or Fabrication"
ttl Change o| Place, or Commerce,
Of Money.
f'f the Distribution of onr Riel.es
Oi Papulation,
OJ the employment of our riches or Con
sumption.
Of public Revenue, Expenses A. D hts.
Although the work now ottered is but a trans
lation. it may he considered In some degree, «>
tiieoiiginal, that having never been published
in the country in which it was written; the
author would there have been submitted to the
nnpleasint alternative either of mutilating his
sentiments, where t/iiv were neither free or
doHOtful, or of risking him/'If, under the un
settled regimen of their press. A manuscript
copy communicated ton friend here has ena
bled him to give it to a country w hich is alra;d
to read nothing, and which may he trusted with
any thing, so long as its reason remains unlet
tered by law."
