Footnote 33: _Autobiography of John Stuart Mill_, p. 125. Mill is describing a debate at ‘a society of Owenites called the Co-operation Society,’ in 1825. ‘It was a _lutte corps à corps_ between Owenites and political economists, whom the Owenites regarded as their most inveterate opponents; but it was a perfectly friendly dispute.... The speaker with whom I was most struck, though I dissented from nearly every word he said, was Thirlwall, the historian, since Bishop of S. David’s, then a Chancery barrister, unknown except by a high reputation for eloquence acquired at the Cambridge Union before the era of Austin and Macaulay. His speech was in answer to one of mine. Before he had uttered ten sentences, I set him down as the best speaker I had ever heard, and I have never since heard anyone whom I placed above him.’ Footnote 34: _Letters_, &c., p. 31. Footnote 35: An old friend of Bishop Thirlwall informs us that he retained his preference for the ‘Paradiso’ in after years. Footnote 36: _Life and Letters of Frances Baroness Bunsen_; by Augustus J.

With an introduction by the Translator, containing an account of the controversy respecting the origin of the first three Gospels since Bishop Marsh’s dissertation. 8vo. London: 1825. Footnote 43: F. D. Maurice writes, 25 February, 1848: ‘The Bishop of S. David’s very injudiciously translated, about twenty years ago, Schleiermacher’s book on S. Luke—the one of all, perhaps, which he ever wrote the most likely to offend religious people in England, and so mislead them as to his real character and objects.’ _Life of F. D. Maurice_, i. 454. Footnote 44: Between 1827 and 1832 he held the college offices of Junior Bursar, Junior Dean, and Head Lecturer. In 1828, 1829, 1832, and 1834 he was one of the examiners for the Classical Tripos.

The first edition of Niebuhr’s own work had been highly praised in an article in the same _Review_ for June 1825 (vol. xxxii. p. 67). Footnote 47:
