URRARY UNIVERSITY OF <AI.IFOR.Ma SANTA BARBARA v.ll PREFACE. The following Translations have been prepared in conformity with instructions contained in the Trust Settlement of Miss Stewart, with reference to the publication of the present Edition of Mr. Stewart's Works. In providing for the issue of this volume as a Supplement to the Collected Works, Miss Stewart only gave effect to the wish of their Author. Mr. Stewart has rendered into English many of the passages in foreign languages contained in his writings; and in the Preface to the Active and Moral Powers, his latest work, he thus expresses himself with reference to those quotations: " I regret that the state of my health did not enable me to accompany all of them with an English version. But should a second edition of this work ever be called for, I flatter myself that some friendly hand will supply the omission." 1 In the Translations now offered to the public, nothing has been aimed at beyond a clear and faithful rendering of the originals. To the Translations there is added a General Index, which is designed to facilitate reference to the Collected Works. 1 Active and Moral Powers vol. i.. Preface: CoU. Works, vol. vi. p. 116. Edinburgh, January I860.
