Excerpt from Memoirs of the Life and Writings of the Rev. Richard Watson The years 1832 and 1833 were a season of great and affecting mor tality among the Wesleyan ministers. During this period several men of leading influence in that body were separated from their brethren and the Church, and called to resign a charge which they had fulfilled with superior fidelity and success. Of this number the most distin. Guished were, Dr. Adam Clarke, and the Rev. Richard Watson; both of whom were universally esteemed and beloved for their piety, attain ments, and usefulness. The loss of these excellent men has been painfully feIn the following pages an attempt is made to trace the personal history of Mr. Watson; and though the narrative has been compiled under many disadvantages, chiefly arising from the pressure of other engagements, it is presumed that the work contains a faithful, though inadequate, record of his life and labours. The writer will always consider it as one of his greatest privileges, and one for which he will ever be thankful to Divine Providence, that he was favoured with the friendship of this great and good man, and for several years lived in habits of constant intercourse and correspondence with him. They have conversed together on almost every subject of theology, and of public interest, as well as upon all the literary projects in which Mr. Watson was engaged. To give an honest and just View of his habits, character, and opinions, has been the writer's aim but no one' is more sensible than himself that his descriptions fall vastly short of the ori ginal. It would have required a pen like his own to do full justice to Mr. Watson's intellectual endowments, and his great exertions in the cause of Christianity.

Excerpt from Memoirs of the Life and Writings of the Rev. Richard Watson, Late Secretary to the Wesleyan Missionary Society Watson's correspondence, of which many speci mens are given, will be found to be rich in interest, on account of its piety, elegance, and. Variety. No man was more deeply impressed than the subject of these memoirs, with the conviction, that devotedness to God is the principal end of human life; and it is earnestly hoped that the exhibition of his own character will tend to promote this most important of all objects. Such an example of sanctified talent, and of holy zeal, in the midst Of pain and disease, has seldom been witnessed. He had learned the great practical lesson of connecting the labours Of time with the awards of eternity; and hence arose his impressions concerning both the sacredness and vanity Of the present life. Sacred how high, and vain how low, He knew not here, but died to know. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
