Jublishers' GENERAL LIBRARY University of Weekly THE AMERICAN BOOK TRADE JOURNAL With which is incorporated the American Literary Gazette and Publishers' Circular THE DATA OF ETHICS. BEING THE FIRST PART OF THE "PRINCIPLES OF MORALITY." By HERBERT SPENCER. I vol., 12mo, cloth, 288 pages. Price, $1.50. "Mr. SPENCER'S main purpose is to ascertain and describe the objective qualities of right conduct, the external signs of the highest virtue, and to show their coincidence with the results of progressive evolution. This he has done in the course of the profound and exhaustive analysis, of which he is so consummate a master, of vigorous but singularly lucid reasonings, and of ample and impressive illustrations from every department of Nature. The constant reference to the facts of the material universe, founded on a rare familiarity with every branch of physics and natural history, gives a peculiar vitality to his composition, and preserves it from the speculative air which is the bane of so many philosophical essays."-New York Tribune.
